Mixed feelings here. Its like an upscale dive bar. Margaritas are terrible! I wanted to jump behind the bar and make my own! I suppose you should only order 2 ingredient drinks because my Tito's and soda was ok. Don't ask for an Old Fashioned...Read More

The place is easy to find, but parking is a nightmare, so very there early. There was security present checking bags and patting down males. If you have a booked section, there's a VIP line, but still be prepared to stand there for really no reason other...Read More

Traveling in from Houston this place reminded me of home. Nice atmosphere, great music and a grown crowd. The patio was a great place to take a break from the dancing and cool off.

Outstanding nightlife Groove for the 25+ crowd! DJs spin the greatest and latest skewed to the taste of a 25 and older crowd. Food is good, staff is even better. Make this part of your itinerary anytime you’re on the Coast!

Great club. Indoor and outdoor attraction. More of a grown and sexy spot. Two bars with any kind of drinks you want. Have gone here often and the service is wonderful. They even, on occasion, offer food.
