So we were in the area and I found the spot after looking for lounges. It's sort of like a basement. Apparently they have 2 floors, but I didn't get to check that out. As soon as we step in, the bar is right there. And the DJ is right by the window side as well. It is a little compact in the front than in the back which has the lounge area. I wasn't sure if those were like reserve. As for drinks, they were good, a little on the pricey side. But the music made up for it, and I like that they had free cold ice water. Because it does get hot in there even though they have AC running. Everybody was bopping, it was a good vibe and they are open till 3. Even the bartenders were dancing and having fun. read more

Overall this venue is great. They use it twice a week for an underground event which in theory is illegal. During those events 20% tip is mandatory and added right away. read more

Really cool vibe. Not as crowded as I thought it would be. Dance vibes and good music but not so many people dancing. Unfortunately it's so loud so you shouldn't come here to had a conversation. read more

I hosted a valentines/birthday party here over the weekend and I have to say it was absolutely perfect! Between the romantic and moody aesthetic and the friendly staff who were beyond helpful and accommodating throughout the process, I couldn't be any happier! I was planning my event for around 4 months and the Madamme X team truly made my dreams come true! I would recommend hosting here for any party or event if you're looking for a cool and fun location with great staff and affordable party packages!! read more

I liked this place, it's a staple in NYC. Dark mysterious lighting definitely a place for Friday night hook ups. I liked the music but it isn't my favorite, it's just fun. The bartenders were friendly enough but I think they were just slammed I get it. I feel like it's a good hop spot. We went on an off night as well just to get some contrast and it was still poppin, collagie. I would have video or photos but it was very dark and packed. This place is not a quiet sit down drink spot and it's not a craft cocktail bar. read more

Day and time : Friday 9pm I couldn't help but stop by for a drink at this bar as it brought back wonderful memories of my college days when my friends and I used to frequent the bars in the neighborhood, this one included . I barely remember how it looks inside. It has a sexy vibe with knowledgeable bartenders/ mixologists making some delicious concoctions. I can see from the bar the back area which has nice cushioned chaise / chairs. There might have been a show, event as I saw a bunch of people in groups go in the back . Glad to see this place is still around . read more

Attended a private function at Madame X's (upper level). As I deliberately don't do stoosh/stush well, I left those "wannabes" and made my way downstairs to the general floor and THAT'S when things started making sense to me. Haha. Madame X isn't unusual to neighbouring spots but the patrons in attendance that night made it seem like it was the only spot on that stretch. We really had a good time! Music is super eclectic from Jamaica, Rio to Spain, Goa you name it they played it. We kept time with each challenge their DJ presented. There's a super chill back area and though it's outdoors and with the winter wind still in the air it didn't bother me because I was kept warm by the strategically placed heaters. My cheap arse 'droid doesn't do well in dark spots so I was unable to do justice to their beautiful and provocative artwork. Hell yeah I'd be back if the opportunity presented itself! The End. read more

Was here on the evening of Friday 10/28 for a friends birthday Halloween weekend, worst DJ I've ever heard. He went from sweet Caroline to the I'm blue da ba dee song to twerkulator. My ears hurt from the Terrible transitions Omfg he went from Don't Stop Believin to Don't Cha, where am I read more

Stopped by here for happy hour (which goes until 9!?), And so glad we did! The bartender, Allie, was friendly and served us up quick drinks. We had dinner reservations around the corner or else we would've stayed for another round. The decor was fun too. Looked like they have music (DJ) on the weekends, so will stop by some time to check that out too. read more

Madame X - Happy hour gimlet and margarita - Lounges Near Me - New York, New York

Madame X's design and ambiance reminds me of a red light district whore house in Amsterdam. That's exactly what we were going for to celebrate my friend's last weekend as a bachelorette! I researched lounges in the area with sultry and sexy vibes to celebrate the occasion and all yelp roads led me to Madame X. We fell in love with the design of this place. Ultra plush vintage sofas, lamps, drapes.... and Village-Esque low key vibes. We booked a reservation for a table so that we could relax our tired feet after dancing. We arrived a little after our reservation time and the woman I spoke to was very kind and accommodating. We collectively split the table rental of $100. We arrived and the bouncer was very attractive and kind. We met with Kaina the bartender who led us to our table. Our couch was a little sunken so we switched to the crush velvet red vintage one. The art work here was super cool and sexy. Loved it. There was also a backyard patio garden. The DJ was great! I felt that he played a nice collection of 90's classics. My friend knew all the lyrics and it was like a blast back to our college days ! We enjoyed that. There was no dance floor so that kinda sucked but we knew it was a lounge and made use of the space around our couch. The only things this place is missing is more straight bachelors and a dance floor. read more

The place is clean with lovely workers. I will be going there again soon. I love it here in NYC

3.5 stars. We spent Saturday night at Madame X at our friend's party; they rented the second floor for the night for ~50 people. While the second floor had several different sitting areas and alcoves to hang out in, there was very limited space for dancing and the area by the bar was very narrow. I don't think Madame X has a food menu, so they let our party hosts bring in food from outside. Overall, I think this is a good place to have a private party with friends, but the dark red district vibe on a regular night out isn't really my thing. read more

My best friend & I celebrated our 29th birthday here! Amy, the event planner, helped us plan our party every step of the way. She was very kind, patient & accommodating. We had a great turn out! The only con was the music. But once you have a few drinks the music doesn't matter lol #ROARINGTWENTYFINE read more

Madame X is a down to earth spot to grab drinks with friends. I was looking for a lounge in the city where I can host 30 people on a Saturday night without breaking the bank and after an absurd amount of research I stumbled upon Madame X. I love the fact that the manager/owner is accessible and I can speak with her over the phone/text when making a reservation. My reservation was for 4 hours (9pm to 1am), it only cost me $100 and I ended up having the an entire section for my group. Our section was big enough to seat 12 to 14 people. A lot of red decor, nothing fancy, but definitely gives a chill vibe. From what I remember (my friends kept buying me drinks) the music was a blend of 2000's rap, contemporary afrobeats, and some 70's/80's r'n'b. I just remember it was a solid mix of urban music. My friends seemed to enjoy this spot and the music. The only caveat is they don't serve food, but you can bring your own as long as you clean up after yourself and pay a deposit in case you make a big mess. They have an upstairs area, which I didn't have a chance to peep and modest backyard area. If you don't want to deal with long lines, pretentious door policies, but want to hear some good 'old school' rap/r'n'b music (I just can't believe 2000's is considered old school now, but it is) and smoke hookah then hit up this spot. read more

Came here for a private birthday party. It's a very burlesque-y bar with private couch areas in the back. Be prepared because their drinks are STRONG! read more

We were invited to a party where 45 guests were supposed to attend. I think my friend expected to have a private space because at the last minute sent an email saying that we would be sharing the space. What an understatement that was! In one room there were 3 different "sections" which consisted of 4 couches and a couple of small padded stools and two small coffee tables. Clearly this was set up to be intimate. This was not! The place was packed with very loud music and couldn't hear each other talk. I must say that the music was really good and would have been great for a dance party, but the place is not set up for that. I understand that the venue is really inexpensive to rent but buyer beware. read more

Love the vibe and the music here! Very speakeasy-like and intimate. It's great for parties and I love that the seating is velvet! The drinks were watered down and not mixed well in my opinion but it's a great place for after work meetups or weekend hangouts. read more

Good spot to grab a quick drink and chill Great Music Good Bartender Good Red Lighting read more

Great staff, had a great Halloween night here. They were packed! But I was still able to get my drinks in hand.

Very intimate, good seating. Highly recommend to couples. Loved the red lightly in the lounge area.

Absolutely LOVE this place. Recently threw my birthday party here and Amy was a delight to work with along the way. My only regret is not confirming how much of the back room I was renting (or what part of it...we were kind of sandwiched between two other parties that kept trying to use our space but for the price it was still a great deal!). I also wish that the music had been a little more...either appropriately themed to the bar or main stream (most of what was played was Latin music which was totally fine but I would have liked to have heard a few more recognizable top 40 songs). But other than that, the place is gorgeous, great for a group, and not outrageously expensive. We had a great night and I can't wait to come back whether for a celebration or just a night out! read more

Madame X - Moulin Rouge themed 30th at Madame X! - Lounges Near Me - New York, New York

Was randomly invited here tonight (Thursday), by this woman I recently met but knew nothing about. She told me she was working and said I should come down for drinks and to dance. Kept asking her what she does and she wouldn't answer. Said I was out with friends and she told me to bring them. Thought maybe she had some girlfriends there. Finally made my way down and the place appeared closed. She told me to mention someone named Sasha to the security guard in front. She also told me she goes by a different name at work. At that moment I knew something was up. Security guard lets me in and when I walked into the place there were many women dressed like strippers. The women at the door said it's a 40$ cover. Didn't have much cash as I use my card all the time. The woman I was meeting, "Monika", came and met me at the front and told me to get cash at the atm around the corner. I asked her what was going on there and what she wanted to do. She said there are lots of pretty girls there who would give me a lap dance for $20 a song and she and I could drink at the same time. Clearly these were strippers just trying to make money off of anyone they could get to come there whether it be through lap dances or from the drinks, they get you to buy them! This place is a freaking joke! Luckily I didn't get suckered more than an Uber downtown. Luckily met some friends at a real bar and had a good evening in the end! Forget this wanna be strip club! Just a trashy place with sleazy women! read more

What a fun and fantastic little place. The bartenders were amazing. Especially my girl Zayne. Loooved everything about that night! read more

Just threw a milestone birthday here in the upstairs space and oh.em.gee , perfection. I'm a little afraid to write this review because I don't want everyone to know about this perfect little gem buttttt they totally deserve to be shouted out. I was in touch with Amy, the owner from the beginning, and she showed me the space, answered my millions of questions via text leading up to the day, and connected me to the DJ. Shout out to DJ Lloyd because the music was fireeeee all night. On the day of the party, Alex was our bartender (another incredible guy, who also DJs! If you come on a Friday, you can listen to his tunes!!) and Karen, the bar manager was helping to manage everything. This is an all star team folks. They knew exactly what I wanted and helped me make it my dream bday celebration. The party was EVERYTHING I wanted and I couldn't be happier. Everyone in my crew was asking how I found this gorgeous venue with incredible staff and I feel incredibly lucky that I did!! If you're looking to grab a few drinks at any time, Madame X is a must visit and if you're planning a birthday and want a private space, it's even more of a must visit! Attaching some photos of the incredible space. I am over the moon happy and can't wait to visit again. read more

cheap (ish) drinks for the area, the ambiance is cool. very sultry vibe. went for a party and it was well set up. they have $3 coat check too. read more

After drinking in the area we wanted to check some place out that at least had music playing & we could dance a friend mentioned this place so we decided to stop by. Comfy couch seating is a bit dangerous I can only imagine how many knock out here loll. Drinks I had a Chimay beer not bad nice & cold my friends had some Jameson & ginger ale & jack & coke not bad. Good music playing but not enough room to dance downstairs we ended up making our way upstairs since it was easier to dance here. Plenty of space to sit below more for lounging than dancing upstairs u have another bar some seating & a little more open space to dance. Dimly lit spot makes u feel like u r in the red light district, service was good prices are decent we enjoyed our time here good chill place. read more

This place is so cool! First of all, $6 happy hour drinks that taste good and pack a punch. The atmosphere really takes you inside a Moulin Rouge decor type of situation. The bartenders are friendly and the whole place was clean (even the bathroom). This place will defintiely provide you with some awesome Instagram pictures and Snapchat videos. read more

Tried to do the simple task of ordering a drink last night. The act of getting a drink turned out a bit harder than I imagined! Waited 20 minutes for someone to notice me, then gave the guy my order, he nodded and then proceeded to never make it. Went around making everyone else's drinks. When he came back I said "excuse me", he cut me off before I could continue my sentence by nodding and pointing at me and then leaving. Never got the drink and decided to leave. Strange feeling to have a bar actively not wanting more money! read more

I'm not going to lie to you, I've been here a few times and have never gone to a show. I typically meet girlfriends here before we roll out somewhere else or when I just want a quick one in a cute bar. This bar is for the freaks and geeks who don't fit in and don't want to, so basically the best people. To me, it's the perfect theme-dive bar. I also feel they'd let you flirt with the limits of the law here. They've got a standard stocked bar, the house wine isn't bad and there are apparently incredible shows in the venue. I just love the seating, the lighting and the fact that there is a full on smoking garden in the back where you can shit talk with your girlfriends while shotgunning Misty Menthol 120s. Madam's got 2 bathrooms conveniently located and plenty of relaxed low seating for good conversation. It seems every time I stop in they're filming a new music video or a short film or there's a dinner theatre tour coming through. It's a popular spot and aesthetically that makes super sense. The bartenders are typically middle of the road for me save for one guy who was phenomenal a year-ish ago. Definitely can find some great spots for your insta here. I'd give it a 7/10 on the ability to make good content for the 'gram here. Enjoy! read more

Madame X - Lounges Near Me - New York, New York

I'm such a fan of this lovely unique place. The venue is as red light sexy as you can get in the city. The music is alway lit the minute you walk in the staff is so welcoming. Which is a hard thing to do especially when you see them bombarded with guests all at once with drink orders. They were cool as cucumbers which I respect. The entertainment is too notch too. They entertain guests and private parties alike with some of the best nightlife entertainers in the city. This is a great place to have your next private event or an evening of drinks and dancing. read more

Interesting place. Come here to chill with open minded friends. Dark lighting and vibes.

I was here for a perfume launch a few months ago and they were very friendly and accommodating to us and the guests. Everyone had a great time. It was dimly lit so taking pictures will require your cell phone camera flash "on" if you're not using a professional photographer. I have nothing but, praise for this cosy little spot and will definitely visit again. read more

This place was okay until I ordered a drink. The bartender was completely rude. I asked for a vodka club with a splash of pineapple. When I received my drink I didn't taste any pineapple so all I said was hey, sorry there's no pineapple, to which she responded WELL THEN YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR A "SPLASH" It was unnecessary. I wasn't trying to be rude, she could have charged me more for it for all I cared. Her attitude was uncalled for therefore I will never be coming back to this establishment. Don't waste your time it's a practically a basement with red lights. I felt like a call girl when I was there. read more

What an amazing venue. I was here for a private event on the second floor and the bartending service was on top of everything, very friendly and attentive. The Decour is very sexy with dark velvet drapes everywhere and they have really nice cocktails. read more
