I went here last week for a friends birthday and the hostess was a total B*TCH!!!! She looked our party up and down and said sorry your not on the list. LIES!!! My friend had made a reservation in advance but yet when we showed up it was miraculously not there. The hostess was a snotty push-up bra wearing idiot who was hired stictly based on a pretty face and not her IQ. When my friend said he had a reservation under his NAME and then stated his name she looked up after checking the list and asked him if the name he gave her was his name. No Air head he just said it was his name but no really his name is Bob. HOW DUMB CAN YOU BE BROAD ?!?!?! WORST SERVICE EVER!! And to top it off we had friends that showed up before the birthday boy and they got in by saying they were there for my friends party and using his name!!! One minute his name is on the list and the next its gone ?!?!? Invisible ink ???? I THINK NOT!!! NEVER GO HERE!!! Too pricey for crappy service!!!

Pros: Its in a nice location

Cons: Bad service, watered down drinks, bad service, snobby attitude, dumb staff

I booked my birthday here last weekend and was amazed that this place lived up to the hype. Most people do not give credit out when it is due, this place ROCKS!!!!! The music was phenomenal, I stayed to closing. Which by the way came with a champagne toast/spray with the staff! The bartenders and doorstaff were terrific. Everything was just perfect, with no headaches. Lastly definitely meet the manager, he is the man and did some great shots with me! I am a FORUM FAN!!!!!!!!

Pros: MUSIC, STAFF, MANAGER

Cons: NONE

I talked to the hostess to set up my birthday party a week before and she told me to call to make a reservation so I did, but when my friends and I went to the door another hostess looked at my party and said my name wasn't on the list. They are not very organized and put a damper on my birthday night.

Pros: None

Cons: Lose people's reservations

I had my birthday here on Friday night and had a fantastic time. I never write on these things but felt compelled. Not only did none of my friends have issues getting in but the staff was so polite to us. The drinks were extremely reasonably priced and the decor was very high end. OH and the MUSIC,MUSIC, MUSIC! Lets just say I am a big fan and will definately be back. Thanks Forum

This is my favorite bar in all of new york. The space is beautiful, the bartenders are so friendly, and the service is great. I came here with a bunch of friends last week like usual and had a blast. I highly recommend it.

Pros: Bar, Service, Fun!!!

Cons: None

After reading the fabulous reviews, I decided to go and speak to the manager about having a birthday party for self. Upon arriving, I was greeted with food and drinks free of charge at the bar. Being assured a good time with great service for 30 of my guests, I left feeling confident that I would have a good time. Fast-forward two weeks, I arrive with guest at hand to find a tiny table by a crowded bar. Forget them not having prepared the food, I had requested I literally had to duke it out with management. Managers and bottle girls, both extremely unprofessional, waitress was actually taking shots from my bottles. Managers have no professional skills at all; this place alludes to being a posh bar but is nothing more than a trashy, non air-conditioned low rate bar. I literally thought my friends would pass out from heat exhaustion. If you are thinking of going...don't! Save your time and money, so many other places to party.

Pros: Um....there are none.

Cons: Definite thumbs down. Way too crowded...people falling all over the place.

We celebrated 2 of my friends bday last night at Forum and we had an incredible time ! Brian was a big help setting up reservations for us. The staff really knows how to take care of their patrons and the music was great. Our waitress, Krista, did an incredible job from setting up our table and asking us if we needed anything throughout the night. From the door staff, to the bartenders and waitresses, everyone was friendly and courteous. Again, we had an incredible night, and our thanks to the staff at Forum for making it a fun night! We'll definitely be visiting again!

Great place to have a few drinks after work. Whenever i've been there always seems to be lots of attactive women. Friendly staff and a good crowd make for an enjoyable atmosphere. No complaints. Should definitely check out this bar.

I'd always passed by this place, and finally met a friend here for drinks after work on a Friday. They have a lovely selection of cocktails to choose from, but I asked the bartender to just make me whatever he felt like making that wasn't too sweet. I believe it was a concoction of blueberry vodka, peach puree, and lime juice. Absolutely delicious. I definitely plan to go again.

Pros: Drinks, Service, Ambiance

Cons: Probably should've spent a longer amount of time there.
