I love Mexican food and this is the first decent taco place I've been to on the city! Advice: Order the chicken crispy tacos with sour cream. Don't waste your money on the guacamole it was pretty bland and the red sauce gives a nice slightly spicy flavor to the tacos. They default to soft tacos so make sure you specify Crispy!! It is nice because the cover the crispy taco with a soft tortilla so it's a nice balance of soft and crunchy.

I am reluctantly including this club my reviews, just like the bouncer pretends to reluctantly let cheesy people in. Marquee isn't quite the celebrity magnet is still claims to be. But that doesn't mean that you'll get in if you are just a group of guys. You still have to dress up and wait in line, bring girls and money. You can get around it by using a promoter, which is why I think Marquee, like all the other mega clubs nearby, confuse purchasing power with exclusivity. Friday nights are supposed to be the best nights. Upstairs has hip hop and downstairs plays your garden-variety techno. Read more at my blog: http://iheartnycbars.w...

What an ODD place. That's about all I can say. It's a mash-up of so many different random things, that I'm afraid I'll catch schizophrenia if I spent any longer there. First off it's built into Phipps mall, so that's a little strange to start. Then when you walk in your greeted with a 1920's style bar. I love the decor of the place it manages to capture that "post Victorian" stylings. The designers also do a great job with the mirrored wall, to make it seem much larger than it really is. But that's where the pluses end. I did not have food there that night, so I can't say how that was. The only beer they appeared to have on tap was Peroni. Now it seems like every review of this place has to mention the wait staff, and I will too. They seem very incongruous with the rest of the style. It's like Hooters girls working a fine french restaurant. I get it that sex appeal sells this place, but I've been to plenty of places with good looking waitress that don't appear that "out of place". The style could just as easily be "sexy flapper" and not have that disjointedness. I'm guessing the target audience of this place are older buckhead/business men with an expense account, and a sugar daddy complex.
