Okay so I went to Umbria to support a friend who started "promoting" for them I was on a "Guest List" still had to pay a $20 cover Checked my coat and had to pay $5. Great just paid $25 to get in. After that I got to listen to crummy house remixes of great songs and pay $10 for tiny mixed drink which I doubt even had a shot of booz in it. Surprisingly I got sick of this experience quickly and decided to leave to go to a real bar. As I was leaving the bouncer at one of the doors told me " you cannot get your coat because the room is full" What?!?! I paid $5 to check my coat and now they were trying to tell me I had to leave without my coat long story short after having to argue I said "blank you I paid to check my blanking coat and I am going to get It!" (it was 26 degrees out) Now I am not one to lose my cool but this was ridiculous. After getting my coat I had to wait in the stairwell because my friend who I was there with was also arguing with the bouncer to get his coat. While standing in the stairwell I saw a girl who said to the bouncer that she had to pee to which the bouncer rudely replied "that's to bad you cannot go into this level." she begged him to let her into the bathroom but he would not. As I started to walk out with my buddy who finally got his coat. I saw the girl peeing on the stairwell because they would not let her into another level because they filled the club past capacity. When I went downstairs I complained to one of the doormen about what happened and his response was to tell me to go out the back door. I said "I don't think so, I paid $20 to get in I am going out the front" next thing I know I am being forced through the door thrown against a parked SUV and punched. my friend tried to break it up and he was punched too. This club is described as "The ultra-chic nightclub" well I guess if you consider using stairs as a bathroom and being assaulted by meat head bouncers ultra chic. I would just like to end by saying I have never been in a physical altercation like that in a bar or in everyday life. I was absolutely appalled by my experience and if this post makes one person reconsider going their it was worth the time. Their are a ton of great bars with responsible staffs in this city this is just not one of them.
