by Joraine G. on SUPER DUPER GHETTO. It's in the Tenderloin, and when I'm "lucky" enough to find free street parking near the 500000 homeless people offering to watch my car, it's not until I'm walkin to my car at 3am tipsy that I realize I'm worried my car has gotten jacked. Maybe it's cuz I was so busy gettin harassed by the tweaker crackheads lurking about. Yup, gotta love the T. The past few times I've gone, there's been fights breakin out. And I aint talkin about two chicks squabblin cuz they bumped into each other. I'm talkin about a chick throwing her drink at some guy, the guy punching her, some other guy punching him, and then a whole bunch of other people jumping in, girls and guys hitting each other in the middle of the dance floor. And let's not forget the fight, excuse me.. I meant JUMPING that occured 10 minutes later where 4 guys were kicking the hell out of this one guy who was left on the floor bleeding and bruised. And you'll be dead before security realizes what's going on, 20 minutes later they'll bum rush past you and knock you down as they're trying to get to the scene. And if that wasn't entertaining enough, you can always start throwing your drinks and glass bottles into the air and across the room while you're hitting unsuspecting people who are just dancing trying to have a good time. Yup, that's Suite 181 and I haven't really felt safe here in a long time. Pros: They're open til 4. The bad thing is that it sorta starts dying around 2:30-3:30 and you will probably leave before it closes. You hope to get your money's worth but you don't. They have a guestlist. Bad: You better start waiting in line at 8pm if you're trying to make it in time cuz the line moves super slow, get your $20 cover charge ready. Good thing there's a whole bunch of homeless people and tweaker crackheads to keep you company. The decor isnt THAT bad. But when there's sloppy people spillin drinks and slippin everywhere, ghetto hoodrats grindin on each other, hoodlums being hella grimey and fighting, I just can't look past it. The upstairs room DOES play some whack music and the speaker system blows. The downstairs room plays more hip-hop but feels more like a basement/warehouse even with 2 bars, a "vip" area with carpet, couches and a bed, it's still bare-looking to me. Anyone can hop the "vip" rope, or just stand on the stairs blocking the vip "entrance" and no one really enforces anything. The best days for Suite 181 have come and gone. I liked it before but it's TOO ghetto now, even for me. Onto the next hot spot...
by Lizabeth Prather on Love this place for live music. Have always had to wait to get seated, but it has always been worth it and I have never had a bad time here. This is a great place in the Village to end a night of bar hopping and ring in the morning.
by Mammie Mckenny on Ecco is my place to go when i want to see a be seen. The bartenders there are amazing very personable and professional. They have great knowledge of the wine list. My favorite entree there right now is the rabbit pasta. I always tell the bartenders that I'lll have the Bugs Bunny : ) Great place to have dinner before going to an event at The Fox also. Great singles scene. I've tried to make it my regular Friday late night dinner and a cocktail.
