Oze Tavern

Went here Saturday 12/​27/​2015 for B dayparty family, friends been trying get me here for over a year i live in Long Island. MY SISTER AND I GO, FIND PARKING cool. Get searched at door go in i notice they had credit card logo sign on door, im like good cause i have my cc on me no cash. We order our drinks from polite bbarmaid i attempt to give her my credit card she says no we dont do credit i point to door says NO do she points to ATM IM LIKE why have cc logos posted on door. My sister has cash pays for drinks. I see another person i know their music is pumping like i like little tight stand up table we go to i see a couch area by Dj. Place is little ghetto from pictures ive seen this place is small, pic make it seem like its mad big smh. Finally gets crowded see family they tell us come to vip section im lime where lol. When you walk towards kitchen to your right theirs a vip section couch little ottoman on side to side big screen tv. Crowd was good i knew half people there. We leave 1230am After dancing .I rate 3 stars cause they should be taking credit and debit it would do their business justice and its shows you about business. Wil go back with cash on hand nxt time.

Still ghetto… No need to go to the Bing at Rikers Island when you can get a face slash done locally:

I visited here on a Saturday night in honor of my homegirls birthday event. The security search was done by a female who reminded me of Queen Latifah. After a quick body search and pocketbook check with a flashlight we scotoed past 2 burly male guards and entered.
It was dark inside but in the feeble light of the entry way a slim man demanded the $ 10 entry free rather gruffly. After paying, we located members of our party sitting at the front on long bench style seating. There were little small tables that dotted this area. An ATM seemed useful until it read that it was out of service.
I had heard they had a kitchen that was open all night. I waded through the place that although it had opened its doors at 10 PM was fully packed by 11:30. I located the kitchen at the very back of the place and ordered a $ 13 plate of fried shrimp and fries. The waitress assured me that she would find me with my order. (This was primarily to keep patrons from crowding around the kitchen).
When my order arrived she found me in the reserved seating section as I had chosen to commit shoe-​a-​cide that evening and determined NOT to stand all night until 4 AM. The reserved seating area had love seat and sofa setups. An overhead projector displayed cable programming onto a wall.
My food arrived on a white modern style square plate. I was reminded to pay $ 13 cash to the waitress. (They do not accept credit cards) The shrimp were huge and the fries dark brown with seasoning. All was actually very good and a portion two could have enjoyed but my stomach was in protest of sharing as I had not eaten all day. My friends looked at me as if I was the only kid in the playground with a double scoop ice cream but ah… well. (*shrug)
The DJ was really on point with old school hip hop and current hip hop tunes. The bar was hopping and courteous. The long island ice tea my friend ordered was quite strong as was some other pink lemonade tasting creation. I was happy with my $ 5 Heineken.
The ladies room although very small was nicely done and clean. Noise levels meant you had to retreat to the bathroom or go back outside to deal with phone calls but that’s understandable.
SUMMARY
Food 4 stars… atmosphere…3.5 stars… Seating 2 stars… Staff 3.5 stars. Parking (streetside) 2 stars.
I advise you to go for the music and food. The drinks seem okay. The food is okay for the price when compared with portion and taste. Parking is terrible as there is another bar doors down. There is a cab company around the corner though.
It was terribly crowded without enough seating but you may still manage to enjoy yourself all the same. I may return again to be sure of my initial rating of this place
