***** HOT Place
Posted: August 27, 2008
I absolutely love love love the decor, and the food is pretty good (for bar food). It will get crowded, but I have never been uncomfortable. The music is always hot and ultra-lounge-y, prices are average

***** Young and bitchy
Posted: July 16, 2008
Sadly, Therapy has become too popular among the young and bitchy. It really is a "scene," NOT a comfortable neighborhood bar to meet locals. G is now Therapy; Chelsea is now Hell's Kitchen. This blows. Go to The Ritz for more interesting and friendly guys.

***** Great Hip - Just No Show
Posted: June 26, 2008
I really liked this place, it was hip and cool, and centrally located. The crowd was on the younger side, but a nice mix of clientele. My only caveat was the load overbearing show, granted it was pride weekend, but the show was so loud and the volume of the drag queen and singers overtook the whole bar and was annoying

***** Attractive busy spot
Posted: February 28, 2008
This attracts a youngish, well-dressed, upscale crowd in an attractive setting. Except upstairs, there doesn't appear to be a bar as such; instead you get your drinks at a service area and sit on couches or along a long, thin table. The drinks were surprisingly strong and before eight PM on weeknights they're 2 for 1. Not for everyone, but a pleasant, popular spot that was busy even on a Tuesday. Your younger friends will love it.

***** Great place when not too crowded...
Posted: February 27, 2008
Therapy is a beautiful bar that feels more like a ski challet in Vail than a Manhattan bar. They have a fireplace, skylight and great drinks. Once it gets a little crowded the bar is very hard to navigate and becomes very uncomfortable.

***** Your Bartender Children Give NYC a bad name
Posted: November 05, 2007
West Hollywood Client Upscale. The rude Brooklyn boy behind the bar says "ya can't get a drink here- go around tha' cohna' " ... Ok, just to be nice, I walk around the corner where two of your employee's are looking thru magazines behind the bar, which they then say "You have to go to the Svc spot" I say guys listen I will but this is silly, I am the only person here just take my order. Move to the spot I told him says Rude Brooklyn boy-- I did what any person should to your little adolescent rude staff took my jacket and walked away. "TRAINING IS FOR DOGS!-NOT FOR CUSTOMERS!" I hope these rude children drive your business in the ground it would never work in California!

***** disappointing
Posted: June 24, 2006
i used to love this place while visiting new york, very trendy, big, 2 levels, cute guys... but the last two times i have been, they have had "talent" shows with screaming drag queens. i love a good drag show, but this was far from entertaining and made it impossible to talk with anyone

***** Good looking crowd...
Posted: October 23, 2005 - Visited: October 2005
Good looking crowd, fun music, impressive architecture -- so why don't I like it very much? It's a hard place to meet people partially because its so open and cavernous. There's no real center or focal point.

***** Chelsea in Hell's Kitchen
First to Review - October 19, 2005 - Visited: October 2005
Since its debut, Therapy rapidly become the place to see and be seen in Hell's Kitchen and helped solidify the neighborhood's status as the new gay ghetto. The crowd is well-dressed and generally well-behaved, for better or worse. While the bar tries a bit too hard to be fabulous, it is an attractive space and its 2 floors and deep layout offer lots of places to wander and meet people. The brick walls really amplify the sound, so if you don't like noisy places, avoid the crowded times.
