by Leo O. on Used to be Buddha Bar. Chef Hung works here. Spicy Maya shrimp is very good. The ambiance is excellent. But if I had to compare this to Buddakan, Buddakan would be 5 stars and this would be 3. It is more for a date place. So food is just okay.
by Ardell Wechter on You can't hate on the concept, NYC's first ever "green" nightclub made from recycled materials, entirely lit by LED lights and all the electricity consumed by the club comes from wind turbine. While uber-trendy, the concept will hopefully encourage others to follow in its wake in efforts to reduce the massive consumption and garbage that comes from most nightclubs. As an actual club, it boasts the typical model/douche bag patrons ordering bottles and dancing on the (faux?) leather banquettes. I have no complaints about the bottles though. My friend and I were standing around for less than 60 seconds before a blazer-wearing boy invited us to use them for their booze which I appreciated. On a Monday they do a band night, which thankfully ended at midnight...the 15 minutes we witnessed were heavily metal. The club layout is tricky if it's packed, which I witnessed at the miserable Thrillist Party (I love you Thrillist, just had a hard time at that party!). I would definitely skip it on Fri and Sat.
