If you read all the other reviews you will see over and over people say how cool this place is, and it is, don't get me wrong. I would give this place 4 stars on my past experiences, but those were lost after last night. Apparently this place is too cool for regular people now and needs a dress code to keep them out. Tried going here with two of my buddies for a few drinks last night. Was turned away at the door. No flip-flops they say.
First they were black leather sandals.
Second why does this not apply to girls, as we walked away we saw a group head over. One had on flip-flops, we said let's see what happens, they all walked right in. Now these girls weren't dressed slutty, and they were not super model attractive. Normal people.
Third I have been here a few times in the past and they didn't have a dress code. It was a really great place for locals to hang out. Very unique lobby / bar / lounge, with all the paintings on walls and ceiling. It just has that I'm cool atmosphere. Seems its so great though they can afford to choose whose money they want and turn people away.
So if you're looking for a place where you gotta dress the part and look cool, head on over. If you want a low key place to just chill and have some drinks and not worry about what you're wearing, go elsewhere!
