Great ambience and music!
by biotch
Friday and Saturday nights are always packed and feature your generic party hip-hop and 80s tunes. Great vibe and dancing on these nights. I also would recommend Wednesdays nights for the No Jacket Required weekly. DJs spin a good mix of soulful drum & bass, deep house and downtempo...great for lounging or getting your groove on the dance floor.
- Pros: DJs, Nice crowd, Large venue

- Pros: Bartenders, Inexpensive, Atmosphere
