by Aida Jaiyesimi on There's no "if you're in Jackson Heights" premise to my review. This bar is worth trooping to regardless! Although I'm not sure what the bar looks like on an average night, I recently attended an event for a local Colombian artist who exhibited some of his life's art here. A night of drinks and art can't be beat. I believe the bar has an objective to showcase local artists be it music or drawings or whatever. I think thats a huge plus in this city. The bar is super funky with two levels and a projection monitor showing films or in last night's case, this artist's life work. Come for a coffee, a tea, or a drink. I highly recommend this bar and can't wait to return. Fantastic friendly vibes from all around. don't be surprised if you find yourself walk in alone and line dancing out the door singing We are the champions. ****4 stars for great atmoshere, interesting art showcases and good drinks. I'll be back soon to upgrade this puppy.
by Natasha B. on I must say, the security at this place is tighter than at the airport, damn. I don't know if it was as a result of the terror attacks in Indonesia the night before, but no other place I visited had a more thorough entrance search. I went to see Matt Darrey here on July 17th, and the vibe was awesome, and the show, amazing. The only drawback I would say was the lights-music sync, that person didn't seem to do a good job (what Matt Darey is too much beat for you, or something? gawd). I like my light s to follow the music beat, bu t it wasn't the case this night. I am not a frequent club scene visitor, as I don't quite enjoy hordes of drunken man-sharks praying non my just-as-drunk ass...but once in a while I can allow some jerk a non-retaliatory pleasure of grabbing my ass while in a dancing crowd. With that said, i would go to Ceilo if there's another show to see there, cool atmosphere - I dig the disco balls and wall/ceiling lights. The area outside is nice touch too, but with all the security, it's not so much fun :(... I'll be back for another show, whenever that will be, but I hope it'll be around for some time.
by nancy r. on this place is an institution - and there's a reason for it. totally unpretentious, great crowd, great music...i love it. ok - i admit i only go there once every few years, but i always have a great story to tell afterwards.. for a darned long time....
