A month or so back there were two little old jewish guys at the front desk, counting cash, dealing with the mamasan. I think they were the owners. The whole setup is strange with the space, etc. The black chick really freaked me out when she came out into the lineup. The service here is always really good for me, and unlike any other nyc amp. There is definitely something totally unique about this place, but strangely, I find it a little unsettling.
