    Joanna, Sal and Jar Jar were fiercely kind and accommodating to my buddy and I. It was a wonderful experience to see how a cigar bar - under remarkable duress due to Covid restrictions in NYC - uses their creativity and kindness to excel. Keep up with the outstanding work!

    Posh, sophisticated, but not pretentious and snobby. A generous selection of common and rare/limited edition cigars decorate their walk in humidor. Display cases house beautiful humidors, Smoking Pipes, Ashtrays, and other Cigar accessories. Although currently closed, the Downstairs lounge is cozy and spacious. The real treat, though, is the Rex, an exclusive Members Lounge. Accessible to non-members for a small fee, The Rex is the statement piece of this Lounge. Knowledgeable, Friendly, and Helpful staff will assist you in finding the perfect cigar for your tastes. BYOB friendly. Always a wonderful time to be had at this establishment.

    I stumbled upon this club through an acquaintance. Joined solely due to convenience and lounge was a nice respite from the work/Finance life. Went downhill shortly after joining. Service was spotty at best, clientele was iffy at times, and when these issues were brought to "management", they were downright ignored. To add icing on the cake, a guest of mine got sick due to flu at the lounge, the attending maître d' was too busy drinking and watching a football game to care. I have already joined another cigar club so DM me if you want recommendations on cigar clubs that actually deserve your money and offer superior service. There are plenty other better options in this city. Response to the management: Now you want to respond... Hilarious. I raised concerns regarding your self-entitled waitstaff and their lack of service on many occasions and the management didn't once bother to respond or follow up. Even when your waitstaff, who was far more concerned with getting tips without actually doing their jobs, started targeting my guests and I with unfounded allegations, due to the simple fact that he was too lazy to serve the members of the club properly and still felt he deserved gratuity. Not once did the management reach out to me to follow up and see what was going on when I raised these concerns. My guest had 1 drink elsewhere and had the flu. Which is why she got that sick. But NICE TRY though to distract away from the fact that your waitstaff was too busy watching a football game and drinking to care to help and/or to do their job(once again). But please keep trying to justify negligence on your part. Again, not one phone call or email to clear up what actually happened after this incident. I wish your little club the best of luck as you clearly have zero clue on how to run a member's only club and care little for the lack of dedication to properly serve members that your sub-par staff exhibit every single day. As for the people reading this review, I mean it, please DM me for far better options for cigar clubs with superior service that actually deserve your money, here in NYC. I wasted some money on this place but in the end, it helped me make the right choice.

    I selected a day pass for a friend’s birthday. We were warmly welcomed by every staff member as soon as we arrived. I feel terrible that I don’t remember the name of the lovely woman that helped us pick cigars on Thursday night. She was helpful and sweet and laughed at all my buddy’s corny jokes. Upstairs we received impeccable service from Rajeed (I hope I spelled that correctly). He was attentive without being intrusive. The lounge is beautiful and has some in house food and drink options as well as accepting of take-out/byob. I definitely recommend and will return.

    The place to have cigars when you’re on Wall Street!!! Super friendly and generous people - a true community!!! Also they have an amazing selection of cigars, so if you’re an enthusiast like me you have to sample the delightful cigars they carry!!!

    I bought an annual membership for my husband and I must say... it is by far one of the best gifts I have given him! Now instead of taking clients to dinner, he does business at the lounge. He has said its more comfortable and relaxed.. he doesn't want to take clients anywhere else! He says the staff is attentive and goes above and beyond to make sure our experience is comfortable. I will surely be renewing his membership! Highly recommend !

    We recently had the pleasure of visiting the Club, and I must say it was a rare find indeed. This cozy establishment exudes warmth and welcomes you with open arms. The ambiance is simply gorgeous. The tasteful decor, dim lighting, and comfortable seating arrangements create an intimate and inviting atmosphere. As soon as I stepped inside, I knew I was in for a delightful experience. The staff deserves special mention. From the moment I arrived, they greeted me with genuine warmth and were incredibly attentive throughout my visit. Their knowledge and passion for cigars were evident as they guided me through their impressive selection. They were always on hand to answer questions, provide recommendations, and ensure that every detail of my experience was perfect. We spent a wonderful time at the club, enjoying the high-quality cigars and savoring the moment. Whether you’re a seasoned cigar aficionado or a novice exploring this world, this place caters to all. The carefully curated selection of cigars caters to various tastes and preferences, ensuring there’s something for everyone. Overall, my experience was nothing short of amazing. The combination of a welcoming atmosphere, charming setting, attentive staff, and fantastic cigars made it an unforgettable visit. It’s a must-visit destination for any cigar enthusiast, and I can confidently say that I’ll be coming back for more!

    Not a bad place for a quite smoke after work with friends. It’s BYO drinks though. You can buy cigars downstairs too if not bring your own. $40 for a day pass not too bad.

    Nice. Not used to paying a lounge fee. But I guess the location is relevant here. Nice place with good service. Nice sticks in humidor

    I have been curious about this place and finally had the opportunity to visit. To say the least, it was definitely worth the experience. The hostess Joanna was very friendly and knowledgeable of products. The place had a great wide variation of selections. The lounge was classy and homey all together. I look forward to my next visit.

    For some reason i was a little apprehensive to go in initially thinking its a cigar bar on wall st and most likely would be a bit presumptuous, but i was so wrong and glad i went in to check it out. Didn't get a chance to access the club, but sat down at the retail part of the shop and have to say it was a great experience. Excellent prices and high quality cigars. As others pointed out, staff (Vito and the other hostess i didn't get a chance to exchange names) is extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Very nice vibes overall! Definitely gonna go here every time i am in NYC from now on.

    I’ve been going to Rex for over 30 years. I joined the private club as soon as it opened. Great place to relax and grab a bite and smoke a cigar. The staff is always on top of there game. Would highly recommend this club to any cigar smoker.

  • 5/5 SAL B. 5 years ago on Google
    A beautiful place to come and enoy a cigar. Whether I'm alone or with clients, I'm always treated great. I'm so glad that there are day passes. It gave me a chance to really know the place. Since then I have become a member. Also, the cigar store downstairs has a great selection. The staff is not only friendly, but extremely knowledgeable.
