I visited the restaurant on Saturday night. I would recommend going after 10 o'clock as it was fairly busy with a good vibe, but not overly crowded.

This restaurant was terrible! Honestly, if I could give negative stars, I would. It was the worst experience I've ever had in Chicago.

This restaurant is a waste of money. They charge $20 for women and $40 for men. The music is terrible, the crowd is strange, and the bartenders seem miserable and unhappy. The bouncers are also not friendly.

Looks like a very nice place for a show. We experienced some bridals and maids who had issues but they all settled down and chose to share space with the performers.
