M1-5:
You've gotta really, really like the color red to be into this place. The walls are red, as are the pillars, the pool table, the light fixtures, etc. Not that that's a bad thing. Red is beautiful. But this recently remodeled humongo space needs something to happen somewhere to avoid that "lost in a barn" feeling. Still, there's a good choice of bottled brews, and a projection TV system for movie screenings, sports events, and visualizations. The vibe is more artsy and anti-Wall Street, so lose the J. Crew twin set and dig out your motorcycle boots.
Even though the place is huge and stuffy (kind of a paradox huh?) its really fun. You will mainly find young 20 year olds in the place but everyhting just there for a good time. Go with a group or else you'll feel lost. It's huge! Last Saturday night they had a drink special $10 open bar! seriously. it was a birthday party but we weren't even invited. We just overheard someone at the door and just said that we were on the list. Pretty chill door.
