A New Yorker of European origin, I have had nothing but bad attitude from the staff of this restaurant on the two or three occasions I have met up with friends here. The worst occasion, and the final straw for me was when myself and four friends were told that we could have a table if we moved away from our stools at the bar. We were directed to a table by a member of staff, which we were then informed was reserved, and lost our seats at the bar, all this after spending upwards of $30 each on very expensive drinks over a two-hour period. When we complained about losing our seats, we were told 'get out if you don't like it, there are plenty of people who want to spend their money here, we don't need yours'. Nice. There's a great little bar two doors down!
Pros: great location
Cons: crowded, terrible service, expensive
