by Lien Mayville on I went last night (Friday night.) If you're into the Asian crowd-- this place is good, but not exactly my cup of tea. I waited in line for about 5 minutes and when my friend went to the front to see how long the wait was-- the bouncer responded with "couples only right now", so he grabbed my hand and we were in. The rest of the group got left behind and didn't get in until 30 minutes later. It's very easy for girls to get in (like most places), but guys-- you have to have lady-friend or be prepared to buy a bottle. Oh there's a $20 cover if you don't get there by 11PM. The number of guys in this place definitely outnumber the number of girls. I was wondering why this place had such a long line, but I figured it out when i got inside. The girls wear some pretty... scandalous outfits. So THAT'S why these guys are lined up outside. HAHA. Oh here's a tip for the guys, (not just at this place, but ANY place) women don't find it flattering when you just GAWK at us -- at least pretend to dance! It creeps us out! There were times where I felt like i was on a basketball court and the dudes were watching on the sidelines or bleachers. I was quite happy that i had a guy-friend to protect me from some of the mad- sketchy guys. So girls, if you're single and don't mind getting some uncomfortable attention from a bunch of guys-- then check this place out. haha. The DJ was decent at times and BAD at other times. Overall, it was an OK place.. The bar is pretty much like all other bars. There are various selections of mixed drinks, but if you only like beer-- they only serve japanese beer. If you don't have cash and pay by credit card, you have to spend $50 bucks at the bar because there's a $50 minimum. My friend got double charged-- so make sure you check your bill!
by Sean S. on "You'll love the atmosphere but I'm not sure about the food" said my thoughtful sister concerned for my vegetarian status. Well sister, be assured, the food was plentiful, creatively presented and divinely tasty. The service was good though one of my cohorts tried to be engaging with the waiter and he seemed confused if not threatened. Overall, a terrific experience. Best done with beautiful, trendy people of which I was thankfully surrounded.
