Lambda Lounge

Great vibes in the place. I enjoyed it. Crowd, Atmosphere, location, music, security very cool. definitely a place to go back to again.

Went to this club and was very disappointed. First red flag they had a male security searching females. Music was terrible. Couch in what appeared to be a VIP area looked terrible. The price for drinks is ridiculous. When you look around in my honest opinion they need to close this place down and do some maintenance/renovation. Went there with five of my friends and we ended up leaving for somewhere else. Y’all need to do better!

I’ve been a regular here, which is why this experience was especially disappointing. A fight broke out during my visit and my drink was spilled on me as a result. When I calmly explained the situation to the bartender, nothing was done to remedy it. I even tried to escalate it to the owner, and still, no resolution. Considering the drinks here are around $22, I expected a much higher level of customer service and accountability. This situation definitely made me reevaluate whether I want to continue coming back.

I visited this bar recently and unfortunately the experience wasn’t good. The staff came off very rude and the overall energy felt off. As a customer who is spending money and supporting a business, basic respect shouldn’t feel like too much to ask. I especially try to support Black-owned businesses, so it was disappointing to feel like the attitude was intentionally mean for no reason. After reading some of the other reviews, it seems like I’m not the only one who noticed something off with the way customers are treated. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously because the vibe from the staff really matters.

This place allows bouncers to assault people just for voicing disagreements with them. I’ve never felt more afraid of a bar in my life and honestly, this place has no place in NYC. I understand it is black-owned and gay….but they are not representing any of us in a positive light. I also feel like maybe the bouncers are so aggressive because they don’t agree. The reviews don’t lie.
