I checked this place out tonight and must say the food and drinks are great. Both the bar and tables were full when we arrived so the host took down our cell phone and called us when one opened up; how many times has that happened to you in this city? The filet mignon is incredible, but leaves you wanting more. The place seemed packed with friends of the owners, who seem like great guys. Check it out before there's too much buzz.

For the sake of clarity, the ice cubes are made by a Kold Draft machine, which is the same machine they use at Pegu Club and Flatiron among other places.

Tamara - you're gettin' a little too excited. Ice "cudes"?? That being said I can't wait to check the place out.

Yes or Now? The answer is no, we were not paid for this post by the bar. The cocktails at Death and Co. were some of the best we've had in a very long time and unfortunately that seems to be a lost art. Perhaps we got overly excited but double-freeze ice cudes does that to us. (By the way these ice cubes stay frozen longer so they don't dilute your drink yet keep it frosty cold).

Seriously, Gothamist. Tell us yes or now, were you paid for this post?

Smells a lot like a shill to me. Did you have too many Jersey Tenors to remember what the experience was actually like, so you just relied on the press release?

Don't understand. Why plug a specific bar? Isn't this yellow journalism? I was there just last week. Order your drinks in advance, as you'll lose your buzz by the time your next round comes, and bring lots of cash, as it ain't cheap. While you're at it, enjoy the line at the sole unisex bathroom. wtf? are there not better places in alphabet city?

Hey - from down here in Oaxaca... thanks for the notice about Death & Co. serving Chichicapa. Will make sure they get posted on the manhattan page. R

Thanks. This site is featuring more of these overlooked bars. Its a real service, and the accuracy so far is running ahead of the weather reports.

how much did they pay you for this advertisement review?

Perhaps the name has something to do with the Sylvia Plath poem. [Whether or not that is the case, I don't think it's "dum".]

$12? I may have to stop at Cherry Tavern next door for a few $3 Tecate and Tequila combos first.
