My fiance and I tried this place after me begging/talking about it for months. I really wanted to see what the hype was all about. We were up next to get in by the rope and finally caught someone's attention. Young dude, with a clipboard in hand, and a douchebag mustache that was growing down to his chin, comes up and asks who we are with. I said it's just the two of us -- my fiance and I had just celebrated our anniversary at 21 Club so we were both very dressed up, him in a suit, me beautiful - so I didn't think we'd have a problem getting in. "You have two options - buy a bottle or pay $100 each to get in" --- I understand the exclusivity at places in NYC but I couldn't grasp how he was saying all this with a straight face. So we left and I burst out laughin in the middle of the street. I am not sorry we did not go in, but at least I've gotten it out of my system. From what I've read here, the acts are the same you get to see at the $5 cover Slipper Room.

Good assortment of foods, very friendly/helpful service, awesome atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out, but keep in mind it can get quite expensive. The appetizers were delicious, as were the desserts. My only gripe is that the Sea Bass was a bit tasteless (hence the loss of 1 star).
