Worst "Martini Bar" in North America
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

06/13/2006 Posted by devlin808

First off, this is not a "Martini Lounge", it's a Jerry Springer post show hangout. Second, the management treats everyone poorly and has the help do the same. Who charges a cover for a bar past its prime? It's pretty much a bunch of "rich kids" who have no clue running the place. They only want their friends to come in, and if you're not a "friend" of the management they will treat you accordingly, and you won't like it. There are so many great pubs in the city that don't charge a cover, and treat you the way people should be treated, that there is no reason to check this "hole" out.

Pros: None

Cons: Miserable
