by Georgina Gabeline on THIS PLACE SUCKS! I made reservations for this club a month in advance. I had e-mail correspondence with someone named Adam. Not only did I fly all the way in from Amsterdam but several of my friends flew in to meet me for my birthday. here is his response. Thank you for your interest in 1OAK. Table reservations are available for bottle service for up to 8 guests maximum. There is a $1k minimum. Bottles start at $425. Reservations are held until 11:30pm. Please make sure you bring at least an equal ratio of men/women. There ; is no guestlist. Please confirm. Thanks, Adam It was a rainy night but we were one of the few in line to get in. We were on time and the minute the doorman comes i say I have a reservation he says," I can't let you in! "I say why? because" i just can't. "Plus you were late. I said no we were not! then it became crowded and he shouts anyone who had reservations for Adam all reservations are cancelled! WHAT THE FUCK! Stupid doorman stupid rules. The people weren't even worth the 1000 or two i would have dropped. I am not going to drop the race card but funny he just saw all 8 of us didn't check the list and said," I can't let you in"! And all my friends have money and look like it. What a horrible club and i hope their charma gets them! We end up going to Pink Elephant where i spent 2 grand happily and we were treated with much respect!
by Rocky K. on Wow! Basically a docked booze cruise (so you can only blame being drunk for going overboard, and not the waves). Where else would I rather be at 4pm on a nice sunny NYC afternoon? Well maybe at the Maury show (or you Wendy Williams.... How you dewin'?), but the Frying Pan comes in a close second.
by Andrew K. on Update: I am revising my previous review of 1 star after coming to the realization that (1) the bartender probably justifiably booted my group out of the bar last time we were there, and (2) Vertigo is a great spot for dancing. Get there before midnight, though; the place fills up.
