"They are expensive even for Manhattan, and especially for a desolate mid-block space in the Garment District."

"Setting is woody but sterile."

"Seriously, the female bartender working on Friday Dec the 15th. Lighten the F up, your sarcasm and poor customer service are clearly the reason why the bar was empty at 9:30."
"Ambience is nice, drinks are way too over priced."
Food
Pros:
