Went on a Friday evening - definitely worth the $10 cover. The music was great - sort of a 90s rap with some more recent music thrown it. I danced the night away - had a great time, loved the eclectic mix of people. If youre looking for a place to dance with friends on a weekend - this is your place.

I love coming on Monday nights for their salsa classes! Fun crowd and great lessons. you can stay after for salsa dancing until 2a.m. The cost is about $5-$10 depending on whether there is a band or not.

Always a great vibe! Music is great, people are chill and just want to dance! Im a regular on Friday nights. Old School Hip Hop is the best.

Staff is definitely caters to a specific clientele. Disrespectful, dare I say racist. Wanted to try something new, never again. The hostess and bouncers working the West entrance literally said your kind is not welcome here. If you want a good night out drinking and dancing with friends, LOOK ELSEWHERE!

Monday Salsa/Bachata nights best value by far... 2 hour Lesson with a 10x World Champion, Live Salsa Music, 2 DJs and only $10 in Santa Monica. Its a bargain for twice the price.(not sure how they do it but take advantage while it lasts)

Nice looking place. Crowd is only a C at best. DJ was very amateur. Cover for Santa Monica? COMMON
