ok, being a girl that is always with other girls, we never wait in line so a half star for that. ooh, the interior looks nice, another half star. and the dj is pretty popping on some nights, half star...so far so good....wait eww eww eww a bunch of trashy uneducated (majority) degenerates humping, bumping and grinding? no thank you. hiro is filled with high school dropouts and masses of "girls/guys from the block" what a disgrace to asians. do not come here expecting eyecandy or even class. i did give it a try and i am thankful that i can always be picked to not wait in line even if it means being grrd by all the "girls from the block" who were ahead of me but go to circle for a more educated crowd or hit up avenue to party with models and stars...hiro is a last resort

Here's the run down. If you do not love the vibe of a crowded, sweaty house party filled with people having a great time and doing what you're SUPPOSED to be doing on a Saturday night don't come. However, if you get down like I get down you will not only love bOb but you will keep coming back like crack. As far as I'm concerned it's the best hip hop spot in the city. I had my birthday party here about two weeks ago and a few of my friends complained about the crowd but mostly everyone had a blast. #1 is the DJ's. The DJ's are ALWAYS on point. i have yet to have a night at bOb's where i was able to sit for longer than 2 minutes. the music is too good to waste time sitting down. Old school, new hip hop, dancehall, r & b, reggae, pop and always the creme de la creme hits. There is never the annoying replaying of the same damn track three times in the same hour. They keep you on your toes. #2 Drinks are affordable. #3 The staff is friendly. I spoke to Stan in advance to make sure that bOb would not be closed for a private engagement on my birthday and he went as far as to set up a guest list for my party without my even asking and dropped the cover for anyone on my list who came before 12am. He was super sweet and accomodating and made me feel like a VIP. I had a great b-day. #4 There are PLENTY of spots to grab munchies afterwards and many clubs to hop to (if you need a break) before you inevitably decide to hop BACK to bOb. Caveats: I will reiterate it does get crowded and the space is on the smaller side so if you're claustrophobic this isn't the place for you. Bonus: All the single ladies, all the single ladies, all the single ladies, all the single ladies. Great pick up spot....especially in the later hours.
