Village VoiceJanuary 17, 2014Have 15 friends? Bring them here and you can drink for free on your birthday. If you don't, it's always a great way to make friends at the bar.
Daniel KozhemyakoJune 17, 2012Wonderful place, the very friendly barman from Greece provided us a lot of free drinks of vodka as apologize for bad game Russian soccer team with Greece team on the Euro cup.
Bartenders are awesome and drinks are strong and cheap!
Maxwell FoxmanNovember 18, 2015Quiet for happy hour and $4 drafts to boot. Good beer list and they have food.
B NNovember 3, 2010I remember when the skinny allowed young babes in the upstairs. You can count on this place for late weeknight specials and a solid megatouch throne held by the BEST phototube players around.
Diego LeonAugust 24, 2014Has been renovated and no longer skinny. Pretty large and clean so far. New car smell.
Staff PicksAugust 29, 2014Now open and ready for business. Drop by for a drink and check out their newly renovated space. Read more
Dana OMalleyAugust 22, 2012Get the margarita, guac, and fish tacos (ask for broiled fish rather than fried). You're welcome.
S.E. WDecember 21, 2014The owner of this bar is predatory. While I was there, he asked drunk women to sign consent forms for his ad. You can't, in good faith, get consent from a drunk person. Shame on him.
Jon FaroNovember 13, 2011Great bar, grab takeout from the meatball shop around the block and sit at the bar with lj
Mayra MarmolejoAugust 3, 2011Come on Tuesday from 11-12pm. It's a free open bar - vodka drinks only. Don't forget to tip your bartenders though :)
A shot followed by an entire beer then a shot again.... Do that about 15 times and you've completed an Eddie!!
Patrick PuertasJanuary 19, 2012come to "kill your idol" in south beach, same setup, just lil more artsy and spacious... ;p
Josh FerryOctober 2, 2017Little dirty inside, but music was good and we could actually move which was a plus compared to neighboring bars.
It's actually a nice place, if bars are your thing.
