by Zach A. on Cover 3 is part of my regular rotation for lunch. It is easy to park. Nice atmosphere that combines upscale/comfortable with a sports bar feel - so you can watch a game while you eat. The staff is always very friendly and attentive. The food is really good, although it is a bit pricey (my one knock on the place). If you go, try: * Chicken Chop Salad * Sliders (app menu) * Chop House Burger Best time to try Cover 3: Go for lunch, its a great atmosphere and quality meal.
by Diana K. on I know that a lot of people have qualms with Hiro on Friday (aka. Asian Invasion) nights, but I have nothing negative to say other than the fact that sometimes, the crowd is full of short grimey guys. As a petite Asian girl, the world of Manhattan is my oyster. I never have any issues with getting into Hiro and it helps that I'm friends with the promoters, because I usually get to cut the line. As far as the venue itself goes, it's a pretty nice venue - very large and spacious and great for people like me who like to wander around. If I feel like escaping a conversation I'm in, I can easily excuse myself by telling my company that I need to go to the bathroom for a minute. After that, I can just avoid the person for the rest of the night without offending them because it's easy to lose sight of the friends you even came with. And if you aren't feeling the scene at Hiro, you have the option of going next door for a more relaxed, casual time at Matsuri or upstairs to lounge at Cabanas. Also, one time I actually lost the car keys to my BMW at Hiro. Of course, my key remote visibly displays the BMW emblem, so anyone could have stolen it. Add to that, the fact that it was hanging off a Louis Vuitton keychain wallet. I freaked out and had 5 of my friends help me search for it. With a venue as big as Hiro (and everyone somewhat inebriated), it was a nightmare... one of the employees who was mopping up the floor saw me frantically scouring the bar area and asked if I had lost something. It turns out that he picked it up while mopping and had put it in the Lost & Found box. They verified to make sure I was the owner of the key and returned it to me. Another time, a girlfriend of mine left her Louis Vuitton purse at a table with her Gucci wallet, cell phone and car keys inside. One of the security guys had put it in the Lost & Found box because he thought someone had left it behind. She had everything returned to her, including her stash of cash that was in the bag. Honestly, it's rare to find places in NYC where employees are that honest especially in a night club setting where alcohol is involved. Hiro is my hero! PS. You may even spot a celebrity or two here - the last time I stepped outside for a breath of fresh air, Lindsay Lohan walked right past me as she was exiting Matsuri!
by Jack Peabody on I liked the beds and the music was not bad, but the cover fee? Insane! The men's restroom was a bit weird too, like peeing against a wall.
