Mood Ring — Restaurant in New York

If you are looking for Wong Kar-Wai or "In the Mood for Love" vibes, you're not gonna find it here. I was really excited to find a bar with those mentioned as inspirations, but upon arrival it was seriously just like any other NYC/Bushwick bar. Loud obnoxious techno music, a thrown together patch-up job type of decor, and overpriced drinks. They reel you in with their Astrological drink of the month, but besides that it wasn't very special. And yes there was random Asian decorations, a poster and some movie signs from Kar-wai films, but nothing about this bar evoked the feeling from any of his films.

If you like trendy, clubby vibes, and want a fun night out to get drunk and dance come to Mood Ring. Overall this place was a let down and felt stressful to me. Still hoping to find an actually cool astrology/Wong Kar-wai themed bar...

I was really looking forward to coming here because I thought it'd be a great experience. I was really disappointed though. I don't understand why you have to pay a cover for really just a bar that also has a small dance area. I was expecting a lot more since you have to pay to get in. It's super crowded and there's people that know each other that would be great if they would welcome any new comers but instead it just feels cliquey. The dance area is pretty small and pretty dirty looking. Only good thing was the music but that really depends on what DJs there are that day. Drinks are okay but they have a small selection of cocktails to choose from.

I really thought I'd be getting more. The place is nice and all but not enough the validate the trip to the area and especially...

First 5 seconds into the venue and the bouncer started targeting my friend, we believe based on race. My friend had the 10 dollar cover in his hand and the bouncer accused him for trying to sneak in. We were in a big group and waiting for the rest to come inside. We were less than 5 feet away from the door. The bouncer starting getting into our faces and wouldn’t leave us alone even after we paid. He followed us around the entrance. He was extremely aggressive and wouldn’t let down, it was like he wanted to instigate a fight. We were sober and kept our cool while he kept yelling inches from our faces about NOTHING. I don’t know what he had to prove but it was one of the worst bar experiences I’ve had. The music was also wack. Worst 10 dollars...
