Every Sunday from 6 to 9pm they play salsa, bachata, merengue and cumbia. Is a nice space to dance and spend a fun evening! You don’t need a partner, you can dance with everybody and for beginners, there’s a class included with the cover ($15) 🤩

The bartender implied that I left my friend for dead. I have to say. If people die in your establishment often enough to say something like that, should you not have big crazy signs out front that say entry could cause death? Seems like a criminal liability not to at this point.

Lamp post was a cool vibe. Can be a great place to chill but the drinks are horrible. Almost undrinkable. $8 for a well shot.
