Negro Claro Lounge

Ive been here twice and I can deff say that I have had a great experience every time. Reserved tables are well tended too. We were celebrating my friends birthday and the waitress was very attentive, coming around making sure we didn't need anything else and cleaning up used cups.

Drinks at the bar are de-lish and reasonable in price, loved my Malibu drinks that night!

Great Music !

Great Atmosphere !

Great Times !

Probably one of the better lounges.in Washington Heights. I have been here twice and I had a better time here then in some of the bigger clubs in Manhattan. No body bothers anyone as everyone is in their own little world purchasing ton of bottles. I spent New Years here and must say I had a fun time. They did try to charge an extra fee after 4am, but hey it's New Years why not. They did turn the lights on and turned the music off after 4am as they tried to clear out the place of anyone that didn't pay- didn't work and eventually they turned the music on again. The bartenders are pretty nice and one even gave me a free bottle of water.
Everyone is dressed well and have yet to see anyone get sloppy as the night progresses. It gets super crowded after 12am, but what good club doesn't. The DJ plays mostly old hits which is cool depending on what you're into. They play a little of everything which makes everyone happy. The bathrooms are small, but the lines move fast. I hear Tahiry from Love and Hip Hop works here, but I have yet to see her. Personally it's one of my favorite clubs. I recommend it, even though it's in the Heights.

Went for a birthday party last weekened here and have to say, it was a great time. The music was amazing but it did tend to get overly crowded but I guess that is to be expcted. We were in a VIP area but it really didnt seem to be a VIP area as it was flooded with people and we had a hard time moving around but overall, this is a great place to grab a few drinks and dance or even just people watch. I must say the drinks were overly priced and not very strong but I would certainly go back. Good place and a lot of pretty people.
