"If your date on the LES goes well, there are plenty of spots where you can go afterward to drink tequila and forget that you don’t like to dance. But first, you need a place to get to know one another without shouting over people singing along to ’90s pop songs. That’s where The Dancer comes in. This is a low-key bar where you can have a very good cocktail while trying to decide if you like this person enough to take shots with them at 169 Bar around the corner." - bryan kim, matt tervooren
"The Dancer is a small cocktail bar deep on the Lower East Side from the same people behind Eastwood. Along with a big, plush, red booth, there’s a bar with about 10 seats. They make a few house cocktails and serve bar snacks like falafel and grilled cheese using pita bread. It works for an after-dinner drink or as a more low-key alternative to other bars in the neighborhood." - bryan kim, hannah albertine

It works for an after-dinner drink, or as a more low-key alternative to 169 Bar or Mr. Fong’s." - Matt Tervooren
