Yelp.com Review - by Erika L.

2 of 5 stars. Maybe it was the mood I was in at the time, or the crowd, or the day of the week, but I didn't really dig this place. It has a kind of trashy Moroccan whorehouse theme, but there are a lot of cushy…

Yelp.com Review - by Nicolas G.

4 of 5 stars. It is a pretty fun place. It has good music and the very small dance floor gets packed around 11pm... the drinks are pretty average and so are the prices ($8). The Moroccan theme is pretty…

Yelp.com Review - by Pauline L.

4 of 5 stars. Came here for the first time last night and it was a blast! But it might be because it was for a friend's birthday (according to all the reviews, this place seems like a big birthday place) but we…

Yelp.com Review - by future vet Theresa l.

4 of 5 stars. Came here for the second time for a friend's bday... It's a hole in the wall with its landmark neon blue sign. When you enter, it's something apart from what you would expect from its simple exterior.…

Yelp.com Review - by Bradley O.

3 of 5 stars. Based on my first visit here, I'd give it 5 stars. The drinks were strong, reasonably priced (for LA, anyhow), and generally the place was fun, with good music and good times had by friends. We even…

Yelp.com Review - by Anh T.

3 of 5 stars. Came on a Friday night. No lines, no cover, no hassle. Awesome. The crowd mostly consisted of Asians, but I assumed half of them were also there for my friend's birthday. It did get crowded around…

Yelp.com Review - by Susan C.

3 of 5 stars. I got there around 10:30 and there was no line, no cover, and it wasn't packed--which does make it good for birthdays--but it's also a bit small. There is hardly enough room to dance and barely…

3 of 5 stars. Place is small, has a nice decor and a low key acid techno music ambiance to it. Chill out with a few friends and enjoy meeting and greeting new people here. People come in droves and leave in droves.…

3 of 5 stars. Been here a couple of times. The entrance is some what discreet. We had no trouble parking on the street about a block down. I like the decor and the fact that you don't have to buy table service…
