A Friday Night Favorite

By cheja on 11/7/2004

  • Overall Rating: 8
  • Yes, I would go back!

Rififi is a definite favorite to go, and to take unsuspecting friends to for a totally nostalgic 80s-early 90s night experience on Fridays. The playlist features names like the Cure, AHA, Duran Duran, Pulp, Blur, The Smiths, Morrissey and the -although very recent- Dandy Warhols. Prices are very reasonable and they have most drinks and cocktails. Two points subtracted for: 1. The nonexistent air conditioning for a place that is literally packed on most weekends. 2. The occasional annoying bouncer at the door who lets "regulars" in and keeps out regulars who don't feel like regulars to him.

Some Hints:

  • The best reviews give a clear sense of why you liked or disliked a restaurant, bar, or store. And that means details. Mention specifics dishes, type of crowd, pros and cons...
  • If it's helpful to compare one place to another, go for it.
  • Come up with clever, funny, pithy subject lines, and write in the first person.
  • Don't forget to read the user rating guidelines and rules.
