I went to this bar expecting a normal night out and instead left feeling disrespected and…read moreuncomfortable. From the moment I arrived, the staff's attitude toward me was noticeably different. I was ignored, spoken to rudely, and treated as if I didn't belong there. Meanwhile, other customers were treated politely. The contrast in treatment was impossible to ignore and made the situation feel discriminatory and racist. No explanation was given, no effort was made to correct the behavior, and the lack of professionalism was shocking. A bar should be a place where everyone feels welcome, and this was the complete opposite. I would not return and strongly caution others--especially people of color--to think twice before supporting this business.

Music was upbeat, house-ish type vibe, perfect volume for date convos but not really for group outings IMO. Staff and community seems friendly and healthy, and there were even little easter eggs on the menu to discover! And the menu? It was literally like a magazine, very entertaining while also informative. Cons: They charged New York prices for their cocktails. And honestly, it was a pretty new york experience in some ways, but if you're living on a budget this is not the place for you. Not a great place to go to meet new people IMO. Bar was a little cramped for me, but that's not hard to do, long legs and such. SUMMARY: This would be my spot if I achieve all my dreams and make a bajillion dollars. Amazing vibes, great service and staff, creative interior design. *Aesthetic*, but exclusive.

After attending a concert, I was looking for a bar to make a pit stop at for a drink on my way…read morehome. Sunny's Lounge was in the area, and I had passed by it before, so I decided to stop by on a Saturday night. They have a small parking lot and I was able to find a spot. If you can't find a spot, you can park for free on a side stret. Ambiance (4/5): Dive-ish is a nice way to put it. Small. But also homey and cool. There's a pool table in the corner with some seating that surrounds it. Plus some seating at the bar. Service (5/5): Friendly and attentive service. Which goes a long way. I was greeted promptly, the bartender answered my questions, and he was friendly. Everything I look for at a bar. Food (N/A): I had dinner earlier that night, so I was on a liquid diet, but Sunny's does have a limited menu mainly consisting of snacks and hot dogs. While I didn't try any of the food, there is some creativity with their food options, so I'd like to give them a try next time around. Drinks (4.5/5): While Sunny's is dive-ish, they are known for their cocktails. And they have an interesting list of creative craft cocktails to choose from. Including some tiki drinks that seem to be a collaboration with Undertow, a nearby tiki bar. Perhaps they're owned by the same people? Either way, I liked it. There's sophistication in their cocktails, which I'm always a fan of. Sunny's is a cool spot. My preference would be to go on a weekday, because if you're trying to play pool, one pool table is not enough when there's a crowd.

Really good drinks and there are some really unique ones - the Kyoto in Winter came in a very cute teacup, for example! There's a decent mocktail selection, which I appreciated as the DD. We really loved the Knotty Boyz (Garlic Parmesan) - if we hadn't eaten recently we might've ordered more to share!

I have been thinking about this place since I dined here for the first time…read more Fast-paced service and great pizza slices are $3 on happy hour. I tried the Korean BBQ pizza which was really good. They had a special pizza...The Baked Potato. So happy they offer slices to try. This was pretty tastey with the seasoned potatoes on it. I particularly appreciated that they did not over potato the slice lol. The best part about the pizza in general is that the crust is light and soft. I usually prefer heavy cheese on my pizza but their was just right. I tried the Son of a B*t@# I'm In cocktail that is on happy hour for $10. The simple yet clean ingredients caught my eye...gin, aperol, elderflower, lime l, and honey made for a very refreshing drink. Also, I've been on a kick to enjoy cocktails with no ice, so this was perfect.

Turns out it was "Area 51: synth/indus/ebm/goth night. Karaoke is Sunday, Monday and Friday nights. They have other nights too like game night, open jam, weird Wednesdays and even a comedy show maybe every month! There is no getting around that RIPS is a true dive bar with some definite characters!! I enjoyed listening to some dark music and even found myself dancing! The DJ was great. I will definitely be back for karaoke. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was the alcohol seemed a little watered down or the drink I had wasn't too strong. Otherwise I enjoyed myself and even got the high score on the KISS pinball!!
