Reviews for The Gaslite

04/06/2022 - Melinda Barber
Went to Gas Lite on April 2, 2022:

*Person who replied to my email requesting a table for 12 was accommodating, helpful, and kind.
We were celebrating my youngest daughter's 21st birthday.
We arrived before 9 PM, as requested, and our table was "marked" and reserved.

*Doorman that night was helpful.

*Bartenders were very responsive.
Drinks weren't very good and were very overpriced.
$12 for a small, well liquor, single drink.
$20 for the same small size drink but called a "double".
No one behind the bar seemed seemed to know how to make shots of any kind.

*DJ didn't go by the signup sheet until I repeatedly asked where we were in the lineup.
I signed up around 9 PM and didn't get to sing until after 11 PM.
I offered to tip the DJ.
I offered to skip my turn just to hear my adult kids sing.
DJ and his friends sang every few songs all night long.
Same guys singing every few songs.

*We arrived at 9 PM.
Spent $254 on drinks and got to sing ONCE after 11 PM.
We were only allowed to sing when the DJ unfolded a piece of paper I handed him with my name and the other names in my family on it.
We left after we sang.

*I chose the Gas Lite to celebrate a special occasion with a big group, but it was really expensive to only be able to sing once in the three plus hours we were there.
And hard to watch the same friends of the DJ sing over and over "¦.

*A few people in the crowd sympathized with us and clapped for our few songs.
