We came July 5th, 2008 Saturday evening for a disco music night We came around 9:30pm and it was not crowded yet, remembering outside line from 2 years ago we thought it is because we came early. We easily found a table and started listening to some disco worm up mix and around 10:00pm we went to the floor for Funky Town and we thought disco night is starting. Despite terrible loudspeaker quality I thought we will have decent dance night, but not counting occasional flashes of real disco stuff we only got to the dance floor 3 or 4 times for a song or two! DISCO night without a song from Donna Summer, Gloria Gaynor, Diana Ross, Earth Wind and Fire, Kool and the _ang, Chic, Blondie, Sister Sledge, Wild Cherry, ABBA, Village People, … you get the picture, but can you imagine DISCO night without any of it !!! ??? There was some starting Bee Gees mix, Michael Jackson’s Billy Jean, some other lukewarm stuff, no real mega songs, midnight came and horror became even bigger. DJ decided to change theme for that night and instead of DISCO music started techno/dance rave NOISE!!! We decided to leave at 12:30am and would never, ever come again to this place. Cons: This is not a place where you meet nice good looking people, it is a place of last resort for middle aged women and men of all kinds hungry for quick scoring, but you do not care about that if you are dancing for your own good time with music you like, but when music is terrible you notice all of it. If you are not looking for quick scoring but coming with friends for DISCO dance, don’t bother, this place is not what it was before and DJ has no clue what is DISCO music. Research, look for DISCO somewhere else, but real DISCO definitively departed this place long time ago. If you are coming for something else, lower your expectations to a minimum and make sure you know what you are doing. Pro: Cute waitresses and huge bouncers with friendly faces make you feel safe enough in that place.
Pros: Decent waitresses and bouncers make you feel safe
Cons: Bad DISCO music, not a nice crowd

Eh, I guess this place is cool when going for the first time. It gets old fast…mainly because most of the patrons are OLD. You get a lot of people in their 40s…especially cougars looking for younger guys. It’s not a frat boy kinda of place. You also see a lot of bridal/bachelor party groups there. The music is too loud at times, but the DJ doesn’t care. You get a lot of divorced people there…kinda weird.
