Reviews for Shecky's.com   Shecky's.com Double Happiness Hidden down a staircase with the sign “Watch Your Step” on Chinatown’s unassuming Mott Street, Double Happiness is a trendy basement lounge with checkered floors, a nice mix of downtowners and uptowners, and a different live DJ every night. Although the three-room dungeon space has a long New York history (it used to be a members-only gay social club and later a mafia restaurant), this is its first reincarnation as a hipster hub, opened three years ago by the owners of the Orchard bar. Recently the place has lost some of its “neighborhood joint” appeal, as a doorman stands outside on weekends checking ID, and often doesn’t let people in if the place is too packed. The loud music, humidity, and cigarette smoke can get a bit dizzying and claustrophobic for a spoiled chick like myself. Sweet & Vicious This Nolita neighborhood bar has wooden floors, a long bar, wooden tables with benches, and plenty of colorful Christmas lights. It feels like a spacious and cozy living room of a well-off close friend. The staff acts in accordance, often neglecting to serve your table, even on a pretty empty weekday night, expecting you to come to the bar, and “get your own drink”. Although they don’t serve any food, the owners encourage you to order your own pizza if you are hungry. The weekend scene is quite different, with a doorman checking Ids and a louder early twenties crowd, supporting a decent “get drunk and get laid” young meat market.
