Description
The vivid colors and exotic look of this cozy establishment have weathered to ridiculous kitsch, but the spirit at the venerable venue is strong. Weekends are jammed with crunkers, sitters and sippers. Tuesdays host the musically adventurous gay-friendly party OUTdanced!; and mid-week, Top 40 hip-hoppers and underground R&B divas sometimes drop in for live sets.
