Best 80s Dancing – Every time I go here - I have a blast. The music so fun, the drinks are not ridiculously over-priced, the staff is super-friendly - honestly I can't think of a bad thing to say about it. Yes, it would be nice if there were more bathrooms added. Show me a really fun place and I'll show you a long bathroom line, basically. How can you complain when you are dancing to "Let's Hear it For The Boy"?

Too hot, too crowded and I hope you don't need to go to the bathroom. – I was here last Saturday for a birthday party. The men at the door were surly to say the least... I got in with no problem but a friend (male) waited 10 minutes and paid $8 and we were there for a planned birthday party. Inside started out nice, but it was so hot and crowded it was impossible to move let alone dance. And ladies, the wait for the bathroom was about 20 minutes. If you are looking for a singles scene, this is a good place. But the crowd on ... read more

Not for the clostrophobic – We arrived to find a long line but knew someone who got us in. The door guy was very accomodating. We walked in to find a sea of people. Unfortunately, relative to the astronomical number of attendees, there were only two bartenders and ONE girls' bathroom (which was inconveniently located all the way in the back). The music was great if you like 80's! The bartender was rude (he tapped me on the shoulder disputing the amount i tipped which is incredibly tactless). Overall, so crowded it was imposs... read more

Good place for classic girls night out – I brought a few of out of town friends here for a Saturday night. The scene is highly B & T, but it worked because all my girls were B & T! The bar is oozing with estrogen! The DJ played every girl song you could ask for (and sing along to). The other reviews which mentioned the club getting better later in the night were accurate. The vibe picked up around 1 am when all the guys came in! Once it was a mixed crowed (not just bacholorette parties) things picked up. Overall, the staff w... read more

bachelorette bonanza – Real or fake, if you're looking for the bachelorette and her entourage, you picked the right place. I'd be willing to bet that most of them drove, too. There were at least FIVE different bachelorettes there last weekend. I think this place is the best when you arrive after the rush, around 1-2 -that's when the music is the best anyway.

GREAT TIME EVERY TIME!! – Been here a few times and always had the best time! The bouncers are awesome and super friendly. The DJ plays great music and is super hot. He is also always willing to take requests. It does get super crowded and the one bathroom and long line sucks but is well worth it. By the end of the night, everyone is dancing and having a great time and all the hot guys are an added plus! By far the best staff we have come across in NYC!

Awesome music, drinks, and people – Went to this bar for the first time with some friends visiting. The bouncer was great, he let us in, letting us cut in front of 5 guys trying to get it. The music is great if, you love 80's and 90's rock. It gets pretty crowded, but their drinks are strong. Definitely planning on going there again.

One of the best Bars in NYC. Great music, Great Drinks, Great Bartenders. Not sure what everyone is talking about with the bouncers, they are very nice to you if you are nice to them, a jerk in line gets treated like one. I have been several times, and it keeps getting better.

Way too crowded!! – Saturday night was my second trip to Naked Lunch. The bouncers are incredibly friendly and helpful!! The $7 cover isn't bad and the music is awesome but the place IS SOOO CROWDED!! I had drinks spilled on me numerous times during both visits. Despite my leather jacket being stole... I had a decent time. The bar staff was too busy to help except to provide a flashlight to aid our search of the floor. This place would be a gem if they did some simple crowd control.
