by Daron Seifarth on My two friends and I went to this place on a Saturday night. We hardly even noticed the sign but there were ropes around the door so figured that was where we were headed. It just wasn't what we were expecting. We had heard that it was a 20s style bar with jazz and piano. What we got was a bar decorated in 20s style with mad loud DJs on both levels blasting club music. The drinks were a bit pricy, the music was so loud we couldn't hear each other and overall the experience was disappointing, probably mostly because we were expecting something completely different.
by Lisa L. on I wish I had been sober enough to remember more about my night here, but it was definitely a good time (and good music). I loved that there were two dance floors - plenty of room to dance without getting trampled or drinks spilled on you. Minus a star for $20 cover.
by Liz G. on Dear Person Whose Custard With Flakey Stick and Mandarin Oranges I Ate, I am truly sorry for stealing your dessert. Please allow me to explain myself. I don't like Supperclub. Maybe you too grew up in the suburbs, where Abercrombie and Fitch was the coolest store in the mall. I once had a conversation off-the-record with someone who worked at A&F and discovered that it was store policy to ignore customers, provide slow, inefficient service (lines make you look popular!), and set prices higher than necessary. Basically, people seem to believe that if they are being treated like shit, the business doesn't need their patronage. And people desire things that are too good for them. Supperclub is like this. The staff is rude and costumed to look unapproachable. The lines are totally unnecessary (WHY did dinner run over by an hour?). The space is sterile and uninviting (with the exception of the beds, which I will admit are pretty cool). But the product itself -- the music, the drinks, the food, is terrible. Supperclub is marketing the feeling of obtaining something that appears out of reach. You are paying exorbitant amounts to have a bunch of people who Supperclub has decided are cool acknowledge your presence, rudely. I like it better when businesses sell a quality product rather than an image. At least Abercrombie had some warm sweaters. Last night, after waiting in an unnecessary line, pushing through an unnecessary crowd, and being glared at by a bunch of emaciated men covered in soot like some post-apocalyptic chimney sweeps, I was angry. I decided I would demonstrate my outrage by going upstairs, posing as a dinner guest, and eating someone's custard without paying for it. I have to admit that I decided upon this method of expressing my outrage in part because I was very hungry. After I finished the custard, however, I realized that the dessert had already been purchased by some unsuspecting ratecluber who had abandoned his table, and so by eating it I accidentally stuck it not to The Man but rather to you, Person Whose Custard With Flakey Stick and Mandarin Oranges I Ate. If it makes you feel any better, the dessert wasn''t very good. I mean, you can't ruin oranges, but there were only three of them. The flakey stick had no flavor and the amaretto (I think) totally did not work in the custard. You really didn't miss much. But I still kind of feel like I owe you some food. If you reveal to me your true identy, I promise I will take you out to dinner and dessert somewhere that isn't Supperclub. All the best, Liz G.
