This place needs another good review like a hole in the head, but too bad. Any place that my uber-picky, easily disgruntled, vociferously opinionated tipsy father finds no fault with should be heralded with a choir. The Deluxtini, which you feel like a dumbass ordering, is some concoction of orange vodka, pineapple juice, champagne, and peach nectar. $11 sounds like a lot until you see the shaker that comes out with it -- easily, there's three full martini glasses' worth in it. Okay, I was solidly buzzed. The beer list is huge, and they have my SO's Chimay, so bonus points there. I love sweet potato fries, even these, which were a bit on the flaccid side. The much-heralded orange sauce is tasty as well. The roasted vegetable panini was excellent, but not quite cheesy enough; next time I will stick with the grilled cheese panini, which is a fatty bit of heaven. My dad and SO split a burger and the caprese panini, and again, both seemed relatively content, a rarity. Dessert (chocolate cake and a vanilla malt) and coffee were generously portioned and delicious. Our server was fabulous - very helpful, friendly, genuine, and never once tried to rush us out of there, even when it got super busy. Oh yeah, and we get to the minus-one-star area: it's fucking busy. The parking lot is a Range Rover disaster waiting to happen. The whole shopping center is really a trendy yuppie Mecca - pure chaos. Getting there early, as we did, circumvented some of that, but in general - it's verging on a Xanax moment.

**Review as a MUSIC venue, NOT a club** This place was AWESOME! Came on a Wednesday night to watch DJ AM, Bloody Beetroots, and 2 Live Crew and had the time of my life. No wait to get in, drinks were stiff and around $10, awesome outdoor smoking patio that had DJ's spinning so you can dance, drink, and smoke at the same time, upstairs where you can sit and watch the stage to chill out, and a decent sized downstairs where you can see some great DJ's spin some awesome tunes. Sound was very good as well! Parking across was $25!! But, there was a little parking lot where you can keep your keys down the street from Katsuya that was $8! Again, this was a Wednesday night so I'm sure it'll be different on a weekend.

Pros 1. Bigger dance floor 2. High ceiling 3. Good DJ Cons 1. Parking sux 2. Disorganized. Although on the guest list & w/ a room, we had to wait in line for a long, long time. 3. Bad customer service. There were alot of rookies so they didn't know what they were doing. Guards constantly yelling at you before you go in rather then directing you where to go. This one guard kept on yelling at new people to line up. All of us were technically in line. If they needed us to be in a skinnier line, all it takes is a rope extension, Mr. Caveman! 4. Cheesy decor. Aside from high ceiling, you feel like you are contained in some cheesy Chinese to-go box. But then again, it's in improvement to Le Preve. 5. Typical Korean club. NOTHING SPECIAL except bigger dance floor compared to Karnak/Velvet Room. Addendum on 4/4/08: I think John J. might have been hired by Le Cercle to write a 5-star review. "League of it's own"? Yeah, right. Just to counter his over-estimate, I reduce my stars from 3 to 2. hehe =P
