by Soky S. on I first went to Velvet Margarita on a first date!! BTW... it's a GREAT date place! The decor is beautiful, the ambience is great, music is fun and the food is yummy. I wouldn't recommend the VM for a large group... I've been there 3 times with a large group and it just takes FOREVER! Since they don't have a computer system and have to calculate your check by hand its not so fun waiting after your meal for the check... Other than that.. I LOVE THE VM!
by Joolie T. on review #800, baby! *Anju: a general term for a Korean side dish consumed with alcohol. **Soju: a distilled beverage native to Korea and traditionally made from rice. Its taste is comparable to vodka. ***Cocktail Soju: Soju; which is diluted with fruit juice or soft drinks. The most popular version is lemon soju. other variations include lychee soju, apple soju, yogurt soju, mango soju, and blueberry soju. ****"Poktanju" (Drink Bomb): consists of a shot glass of soju dropped into a pint of draft beer and is drunk quickly. "WHERE ARE WE GOING? WHAT IS THIS BUILDING?" "trust me, yo... everything is going to be okay." "WHY ARE WE ENTERING A LOBBY? WHERE WILL THIS ELEVATOR TAKE US?!" "shhh. we mustn't wake up the security guard. he's taking a nap." "I'M SO CONFUSED! AREN'T WE SUPPOSED TO BE AT A BAR?" "shhh. we'll be there in a minute." the elevator door opens. it's like you've been teleported into an undisclosed, chic and sexy oasis of Manhattan. remixed jazz/hip-hop music thumping from the stereo system- an impeccable selection. a crazy, sexy and cool crowd is amongst the bar/lounge/cafe. rays of pink, purple, turquoise, blue, green and yellow lights illuminate the walls and ceiling. a sprawling bar area, comfy seating, couples and groups dining/drinking. personal beers on tap, ***cocktail soju bottles, specialty martinis and *anju. arrive here early on an evening. obtaining a table w/ a big group of people will be slightly easier... considering this is one of the oldest and best kept secrets of Koreatown. it's bustling, crowded at times and a striking environment. with stunning views of Koreatown, if you're fortunate enough to ever come here on a lazy Sunday afternoon before the sun sets... it is truly a treat. the service here is beyond top-notch. there's never been an occasion where i had problems with the staff or excellence of their offerings. i frequent here during the summer months... i am gifted with complimentary ****poktanju or mango shots by the bartenders whenever i bring my entourage of 10 or more to Third Floor Cafe. they pay clear attention to detail... never overlook an order or jumble up people's drinks and special requests. *anju is a definite MUST here. the Fried Chicken ("tohng dak") is quite popular. it's lightly battered and fried- in which it is accompanied by pickled radish. my favorite here is the Pork Cutlet ("donkatsu") w/ Korean style curry... the cutlet is crispy and curry is drizzled right over. it melts in your mouth from the tenderness. Salisbury Steak comes to your table steaming and cooking on the iron plate. the sauce is done just right... it's surely a crowd pleaser. Spicy Rice Cakes ("dduk bokki") is simply a common *anju; perfect when paired up with beer or ****poktanju; it incorporates ramen, fishcake ("o-deng"), and fried potstickers ("twigim mandoo") in the dish. the paramount and most favorable *anju are the Sweet Potato Frites. it was absolutely amazing! crispy and light--- these are sure to be gone within 10 mins on the table. the olive medley is favorable... but the fruit/cheese platter is fabulousity; with their beautiful artistry in cutting the fruits... that's what i love so much about Korean/Japanese culinary. they spend a great amount of time constructing the most stunning things from simple foods. being the lush that i am... now, more information about the drinks. the Lychee ***cocktail soju is one of the city's best. placed in a hollowed-out glass bottle w/ a compartment for dry ice (to keep the **soju cold)- this is the perfect cure to the summer blues. Blueberry ***cocktail soju is a very admired option here. unlike most establishments, the Third Floor Cafe blends fresh fruits and **soju instead of syrups and powdered mixes. the drink doesn't go down as smooth like a typical alcohol-shot... but it's so delicious and diverse than your usual palate! Yogurt ***cocktail soju will always be my first love. smooth- with a milky undertone and carbonation from the Chilsung Cider (Korean sprite/7-up) is simply an experience no one can forget. the unique martinis and cocktail specials are worthy of a try, too. one of the chocolate/raspberry cocktails is invigorating for your warm soul. it is frozen/blended and fun to eat and drink... in essence, everything on their drinks menu is inventive and delectable. i'd undeniably encourage a taste of them all! for the anti-cocktail folks- there's something very appealing and cool for you. your very own BEER ON TAP! you select the beer, they'll bring you an ice-cold metal beer tap. YES! it gets even better. Tuesday nights is $15 AYCE & AYCD ("all you can eat/drink") special. after work, a date, a birthday- i find every motive to pay a visit here. i hope you've enjoyed my little guide to Korean cocktails and its compliments of appetizers. this is a superb place to take a hot date, a group of friends, out-of-towners and those who are curious about the the K-Town bar scene in NYC.
by Leontine Durocher on okay spot. went here after a nice dinner for a girlfriend's birthday. they play good music, but for the most part I had a great time because of the company i was with. I've actually been here several times in years past when it was named something else. probably not going to rush over here on another night, but it is pretty comparable to most of the average clubs.
