Reviews for Citysearch.com   Starlight http://newyork.citysearch.com/profile/11350611 The Verdict: This hip yet low-key East Village Gay bar hosts an intimate and flirtatious scene, which is almost exclusively gay (85% men, 15% women). Upper West Side suits mingle with neighborhood loungers and most of the smart-looking guests say their hellos to at least 3 familiar faces at the bar. The Scene: With very few flamboyant Chelsea boys and butch dike chicks, no drag queens and no sex in the bathrooms, at first glance, the Starlight Bar and Lounge looks like a straight bar. But although subtle, the pick up scene is definitely alive: This is the place to find a boyfriend/girlfriend, rather than a one-night stand. The Space: The front bar room has high ceilings, postmodern chandeliers that look like a knot of plastic tubes, and golf-grass texture canvases on the wall. Passed the velvet curtains reigns the dim-lit, cozy lounge with corduroy sofas, DJ turntables spinning funky music, and a small stage for Wednesday and Thursday night performances.
