Overall,
one of the best bars around. Sure, the real East Villagers probably
turn up their noses at the "mixed" crowd, but a solid all-around experience
has been had at this joint by every surveyor polled. The second floor
is generally crowded, but not overcrowded, and you can even get a
couch if you are savvy. The bar is small, but unlike other East Village
bars, it's small enough that the bartender can be attentive and isn't
busy flirting with Helga the monstrous super model. The crowd varies
from Oasis wanna-bees to chicks-in-black to some of the usual downtown
folk. All-in-all, it's a mellow experience, with decent prices and
a feeling that for one night, you're in the place to be. [MF]
