by cherie T. on After IL Cielo we came here for after the after party....i like how our group didnt have to pay a cover since we were there before 10pm. this place is pretty cool as it has outdoor smoking areas, a bar, an area for games, and a separate dance floor (however you can pretty much dance anywhere in this place)...this is a great place for a party since you'll have people who likes to just sit and drink & watch tv (there are plenty of flat screens on the wall), people who wants to dance the night away, or people who just wants to play some pool, basketball, etc. it's a fun place for everyone.. i'll be back!!
by Trevor H. on Went here for Pete Tong last Halloween, Tiesto in December, and a few other lesser known shows. I really like Ruby Skye and it's always one of my top pics for going out in the city. That being said, it's not for everyone. If you don't like house/trance this place is not for you. I've never understood people who complain about Ruby Skye because it's "not their scene." I would have a terrible time at a punk concert, so I don't go.... Most reviews hit the high points: Good sound system (you can feel the bass but still talk in front of the speaker before they turn up the system for the headliner), lots of air blasted on the dance floor, you can get food at the bar on the ground floor, stays open late etc. Down side: ticket prices can be high depending on who you're seeing, lines can get long for big DJs (Tiesto). My advice: get a group together and get a VIP booth. You skip the line, it comes with a bottle, and includes tip. Marina (VIP manager) is awesome and I've never had a problem with reservations even when I call and bug her about a different head count. The waitresses at the tables are great as well and keep you stocked on water and mixers. Have everyone chip in 30-40 bucks and then you have a place to sit while you party till 4am. Wouldn't you spend that much on booze anyway?
by Rick Mintz on Bar, dance club, and restaurant all in one. I haven't eaten at the restaurant in the first floor, but I love the scorpion bowls. The bar and club floors (2nd and 3rd floor) are kind of ghetto with lots of sketchy guys lined along the wall watching the girls. But, this place is really close to everything and has something for everyone, so it's easy to get a big group to go together. The music was fun and if you've got a group, it can be a blast.
