  • I went last Saturday for the first time while celebrating a friend's birthday, and it was an all-around lousy experience. First of all, I find the whole "velvet rope" thing incredibly tacky, pretentious, childish, etc. It's one thing to be "at capacity" and another entirely to treat potential customers as if they were in a cattle call. One member of our group, a male, was let in immediately because he knew the door man. The rest of us stood in line for 30-some minutes. Setting aside how very rude it was for that "friend" of the birthday girl to ditch her like that rather than insisting she be admitted with him, it was clear that the door man was lying through his teeth about the place being full. When I called him on it, he said, "I can only let girls in now--we have too many guys inside." Wait, what? It was not as if we were dressed inappropriately for a night club--we'd just come the rooftop at the W, for pete's sake (another place I've no intention of frequenting by choice) To add insult to injury, my boyfriend and I were DYING to go to use a restroom. Of course, two minutes after we stepped out of line to see if we could find one, the rest of our group got in. No way in hell was I going to stand in that line all over again, but the dick at the door couldn't have cared less. Luckily, the folks waiting at the front (who had been behind us earlier) took pity and let us get in front of them. Eventually the door guy got tired of hearing me say, "Look, you already let our party in" and let us in. Once inside, I thought, "Jesus, what do all of these people see in this place?" Whoever designed the space has clearly confused gaudy for classy--ironically--given the name of the joint, everything looked really cheap, and the employees' dress didn't match the image I believe the Mint aspires to. Oh, and I forgot to mention that we had to pay ten bucks just to get in. And after all of that crap, we had to leave five minutes later because one of our friends felt ill. (No wonder) In sum, I'd say The Mint epitomizes everything about Snottsdale that people rightly mock. If your sense of self depends on being cool enough to get past a velvet rope, then you'll be in good company at this place.
