Hot little spot.: Great place to hear live poetry and music from the city's most talented members. Get there early though, otherwise you may end up standing off to the side of the room. It is also a great place to take a few friends or a loved one due to the intimate nature of the settting. Enjoy!
I visit three times a year: I like the people and the enviroment. Everybody cool and relax what real new yorkers are like. Poetry is top of the line the best of the best.
We will see you again next march!: Great Latin jazz bands!!!
