I
would
give
more
stars
but
unfortunately
the
security/bouncer
last
night
has
prevented
me
from
doing
so.
He
sat
in
the
complete
dark
area
where
the
outside
dining
is,
wearing
a
huge
scary
hat
like
a
bowel
on
his
head
and
just
shined
a
flashlight
on
patrons
before
they
entered
into
the
bar,
leaving
them
to
wonder
who
he
was
and
his
purpose
and
possible
fear
of
safety
because
of
a
lack
of
introduction
or
any
communication
.
Saying
,
‘excuse
me’
and
just
shining
a
flashlight
on
someone
from
15
feet
away
is
not
really
appropriate
for
business.
After
checking
my
ID,
i
went
in
to
the
bar
then
went
back
outside
and
I
had
asked
the
bouncer
if
it
was
ok
to
bring
in
a
Red
Bull
which
was
confirmed
acceptable
by
the
bartender,
The
bouncer
told
me
I
had
to
drink
it
outside
the
bar.
His
response
was
‘you
can
tell
the
bartender
I
said
so.’
That
was
a
first
situation
for
me
in
all
my
years
of
going
to
bars
and
although
I
have
no
problem
following
the
rules
of
any
establishment,
my
main
issue
with
the
bouncer
was
his
lack
of
professionalism,
communication,
and
enthusiasm.
I
felt
more
like
someone
visiting
a
prison
rather
than
a
patron
at
a
nice
bar.
At
closing
time,
the
bouncer
simply
yelled
out,
‘5
minutes!’
inside
the
bar
and
walked
away.
I
hope
that
the
owner
catches
wind
of
this
and
recommends
some
sort
of
customer
service
training
for
the
bouncer.
I
think
it
should
be
understood
that
it’s
a
Victorian
style
pub
in
midtown
Manhattan
that
attracts
a
midtown
after
work
crowd
and
older
tourists
-
not
a
high
traffic
dance
club.
In
fact,
I’ve
had
more
courtesy
from
bouncers
at
a
high
traffic
dance
club.
With
all
that
aside,
Rosies
is
a
great
bar
with
good
food,
friendly
bartenders
and
fantastic
live
music
every
Thursday
and
Saturday.
My
experience
with
the
bouncer
will
not
keep
me
from
returning
as
I
often
do.
