TERRIBLE MENACING, LOW-CLASS ORGANIZATION!!!!!! I attended a gospel brunch with live music Sat. 11/6/10. The lead singer often hovered over the tables in the front. She physically and verbally menaced the people in these seats deliberately leaning over them waving her hands, bending down in their faces making threatening statements while they were trying to discreetly enjoy their meal. This was advertised as a gospel BRUNCH so she had to know that people would be eating because the wait staff was serving most of the time. There was also a very rude man who was working the buffet line; he had on gray shirt while the other staff wore white, so I guess he was in charge. He deliberately placed himself in front of me to be rude, moving only when he found the need to constantly point, stretching his arm across my face each time. To make matters worse, there were hot spices used in both the salads and the meats, which I found to be quite odd. This organization should realize that you cannot advertise events and then be jealous and start harassing the people who have paid for the events - not if you want to stay in business. Who wants to pay for that?

I went there on a Sunday with my girlfriend the first week of February 2013 for the gospel show and the buffet. This was one of the best experiences ever. The band was excellent and the singer was very good. I recommend that people try their food they even have vegetarian options. My girlfriend had the mac and cheese (to die for) and the candied yams. I on the other hand, given the fact that I’m not a vegetarian like my girlfriend, had the fried chicken and collards green that was recommended by my waiter. Might i say that the chicken was the crispiest i ever had and very moist and juicy in the inside. My waiter was very professional and had very good knowledge about their menu and their special cocktails. The whole experience felt like i was in a 1930s speakeasy club with the staff dressed in tuxedo shirts and bow tie. Ill definitely be coming here again and bringing friends. Its affordable given the food, location, entertainment and great customer service. Highly recommend it!

It was nice to stop by this historic place. A friend actually held an event here and I was surprised at how small it was, but we had a great time. I believe there were about 40 of us. There is a small stage there as well. However, this last time, I only stopped by in the early morning to show to a friend from Louisiana the Big Apple and its highlights. Harlem was our first stop and we past by the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, The Apollo Theater and the Cotton Club. Its right next to the West Side Highway and 125th Street.

We had an amazing time partying with Cotton Club this weekend. He is very responsive and prompt. He organized a great birthday celebration for my friend on Friday and Saturday. Club entry, tables, alcohol and great atmosphere. If you are planning a weekend in NY , I would definitely recommend working with Cotton Club . Many thanks! We had tons of fun.

If you plan on going to the cotton club, DONT!! you will be disappointed. everyone is 80 years old or older, and if they are younger its because someone brought them there, and they looked bored to death plus, the food is horrible, and it is pricey.$$ The band gets 3 stars out of 5 Its not worth it!!!

The big band, dancers, and singers were all on point on Monday night! The food is amazing, too - big portions, seasoned well. Felt like a real community joint, with four couples all saying hi to each other and trading dance partners. Had an amazing time.
