by Denice Z. on Not sure what its like now because I went about a year ago. I had alot of fun! It was a bit crowded but we met some real nice people who asked us to hang out at their VIP table. Once we got VIP, we were set! Drinks were flowing, we had plenty of space to dance and we listened to some real good deep house music. It was a good time for my first time at a Miami nightclub.
by ruth l. on OK, so, let's take what we know and go from there. This place is called "San Francisco Saloon." Now, I've been to SF twice, both times between the ages of 10 and 16. So, I've never been to a saloon in San Francisco, and thus, can't comment on the verisimilitude of the establishment. Now, I think I've seen pictures of Bay area saloons, possibly in conjunction with that big earthquake from many years ago. Anyway, I've certainly seen a few Westerns, so I had some idea what to expect: booze, mustaches, poker and barmaids/prostitutes. So, the SF Saloon provided booze, my draught Anchor Steam was $3.50, totally saloon-worthy. I didn't see any mustaches, nor card games. The barmaids were awfully stand-offish, which led me to believe that they would not be amenable to body-bartering, given their total disinterest in our table. That said, Fantasy Island is within shouting distance, so I suspect you could pick yourself some flesh-for-hire if need be. Now, I don't know if saloons are supposed to serve food. I think meat of some kind is to be expected, and the burger-orderers were very satisfied. However, my quesadilla was seriously lacking in the queso department. So lacking that I had to order pizza the next night to meet my melted cheese quota for the week. Maybe this is my faux pas, though, as I don't know whether decent Mexican food/Tex-Mex is to be expected in saloons. Pluses include the relative bargain-ness of my beer, the disturbingly nice bathrooms, the adjacent parking lot (though when I left, I observed a valet), and obviously, the fine rateclubsers I enjoyed the company of.
by Odis Neelly on So like, I TOTALLY walk into this Little Temple club after NOT waiting in line for an hour outside, which was like, weird you know? At sunset/hollywood clubs we get to wait in line for at LEAST an hour even if we're RSVP'D VIPS ABC BBQ 123. So anyways I walk into the place, and - GET THIS - they aren't playing any MIMS or those "Little John" songs! I was like, "OMG WTF" this is like so LAME And the club was actually full! I was like, how is this possible with no line of people in front? I was confused I should have TOTALLY known this place was wack when I didn't see a bunch of 2001 BMW 325i's with brand new off-the-dealer lot plates valeted in the front. No ballers in this club apparantly. And no Escalades with rims either?? GAWD The crowd was weird too! It was like, no one had that LA pretentious attitude. I was sort of sad at first since I felt out of place, so I tried to cut in front of someone at the bar and then he was like "dude that's not cool" and then I realized I was a douchebag since my existence wasn't currently being validated by other douchebags but at least I felt better after doing that. Made me feel more at home even though I didn't see anyone with popped collars on their Izod shirts or dudes with designer jeans and square toed black shiny shoes. So, like, going back to the music - I totally didn't recognize anything the DJ played!! and then some song came on and some dude yelled something like "hell yeah it's Mad Izm! Channel Live is sick!!" And all I could think was, "Channel Five? This is like some tribal music or something!" And then when I went up to the DJ to request that new Justin Timberlake song but the DJ just LAUGHED!! And then he basically slapped me in the face by playing some song by "Gangsterrr?" I only know that because he shouted into the mic: "how many of you Gangsterr fans want some Mass Appeal"?? But he pronounced it like "GangstArr", WTF?? And the crowd was dancing to the rhythm! HELLO you don't need to dance to the rhythm, you just need to shake your ass indiscriminately and slam into other people! Anyways, my friends and I left the Little Temple around 12:30 am because we were confused and disoriented. We then drove back to Sunset but couldn't get into the club because the line was too long *SAD FACE*
