Reviews about Tack Room

• Matthew Robinson
  ★ ★ ☆ ☆ ☆
  Tack Room is a great concept. The Thalia Hall triple combo (cocktail lounge, Michelin star restaurant, and grandiose concert hall) needed a fourth addition, and a piano bar is the perfect complement.
  
  I've been to Tack Room several times. Each time the atmosphere is either great or nice, the bartenders are quick friendly and cool, and the food is always worth the price. However, I always go before the piano music starts at 9 PM. Why is the piano music so bad at a piano bar? I'm guessing because the owners don't pay for musicians to come and play actual piano music. The potential is great, but they don't even try.
  
  Don't expect to hear jazz, great contemporary covers, nor actual micro-concert pieces. Don't even expect a good pianist to come in and jam on things they've been working on. The "piano music" is 80's radio covers done by one of the same 3-4 pianists. Expect to hear "This Is How You Do It," and "Piano Man." Don't expect "The Road To Memphis," nor "Clair De Lune." This is a real bar, without real piano music and its very disappointing. The DJ sets before the "piano music" starts are great though! They should really make this place as cool as it possibly could be.
