Savalas

choppy service watery drinks atmosphere was decent. it took what seemed to be almost 10 minutes for me to order a drink, and the floor was NOT that crowded... the bartenders seem to be foating in space, and when i finally got my drink, it tasted like it had been filled with half water!…

Not Only For The Weekend Anymore.. The last time I went to Savalas on a weekend, the crowd was cool, the DJ was great the PBR was... $4!?! Needless to say I suffered a little bit of sticker shock, but I paid my $4 and went out for a smoke. Outside I realized I had missed that for a dollar more I could get a shot of whiskey with my PBR. I went back in and after little coaxing, the bartender happily gave me the forgotten whiskey shot for a buck. I have since been back during the week when PBR is sold for a more reasonable $3 and a couple of their pints are only $2 all night. Oh, and ask the bartender what a 'pickle back' is. She'll probably do one with you.…

Entitled Bartender Ruins Night. Since when do bartenders enforce the "leave a tip or I'm kicking you out rule"? If the handsome mustachioed bartender here knew anything about customer service he would have thought twice before opening his mouth and demanding a tip on $4 PBR can, which was $3 during my last visit. What's customer service. How about a sorry you thought that, we've changed a few of our prices update? Inform and engage your customers.

Only in NY do prima donna service staff so often feel that 20% tip is expected. Gratuity by definition, a tip, is never legally required, and its amount is at the discretion of the person being served.

Telling a customer that they are going to be kicked out of your venue as a result of not leaving a tip is absurd. Maybe your team should use all those tips to hire a busboy to clear off all of the bottles and glasses that sit around every table and ledge EVERY NIGHT until the end of the night. Above all else worry about keeping your venue clean and serviceable.

Maybe you should put your back into it, drop your head - make drinks quicker, prep more mojitos, check your back stock and properly stack your napkins, ensure there's soap and toilet paper in the bathrooms etc. then when it comes time for customers to dole out cash drinks a tip won't even be considered it will be delivered.

Get a grip homeboy, you're entitled to nothing. Although, I do appreciate having a trashy go to venue. Thank you for your hard work! Your venue no longer merits consideration.…
