The definition of Waste: a huge dance floor with undanceable music. Sigh. Expensive drinks. Reserved tables that remain empty. A let down in every sense.

Friday and Saturday nights are always packed and feature your generic party hip-hop and 80s tunes. Great vibe and dancing on these nights. I also would recommend Wednesdays nights for the No Jacket Required weekly. DJs spin a good mix of soulful drum & bass, deep house and downtempo...great for lounging or getting your groove on the dance floor.

Pros

+ DJs, Nice crowd, Large venue

GREAT PLACE FOR DRINKS & GOOD FOOD

Red & Black surprisingly has great apps and the drink prices are a perfect match for the current economy. I love the lounge-like feel but it is much warmer than your standard lounge. The staff is great and I love the see-through fireplace.

Pros

+ Bartenders, Inexpensive, Atmosphere
