Not all its cracked up to be
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

04/24/2008 Posted by Delizius

I was excited to go see what all the buzz was about at 86, a hollywood lounge with no attitude, no stuffy doormen and great prizes, so the review for city search implied. So, I decided to go on a date and went to on Wed. night, got there at around 11 pm valet my car and that was an experience. I should have known how the rest of my outing was going to turn out. I was haggeled by the valet for preference parking or regular parking. Then there are two doors and you don't know which one is the main entrance because you see people going in through both. We make it to the right one and we are standing infront of the doorman for 5 min. before he even acknowledges us being there and there was no line,here goes the great doorman with no attitude out the window. Then he asked us what he could help us with, I was thinking isn't it obvious we're here for the lounge. He then looks at both of us and saids we are at capacity and unless you know the promoters I can't help you. So, I said fine and stuck around to see what was going on, still remembering the city search rave on the place of no attitude and then a group of 10 people who obviously didn't know the promoter were let in. So, be warned this place is just like every other wanna be hip bar. And to top it all off it took us 20 min to get my car. It was unbelieveable that it took longer to get my car then to get turned down at the door. So, like I said city search got their rave wrong about this place, like I said not all it's cracked up to be.

Pros: None

Cons: seedy parking service, attitude at the door

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

The official street address is actually that of the Hillview residential living spaces and sister cafe Lift. The entrance to the club is located on Hudson Street. Look for the valet stand and the doorman.
