by Kimber Imbier on I finally hit up Opera last night for the first time in a year and a half, and I had an amazing time. By far, this is my favorite place to go to dance in Atlanta. The venue's great, music's always good, and the crowd's diverse and fun. There are 5 main areas: the outside patio, the central room, the big side room in the back past the bathrooms, the room downstairs, and the upstairs VIP area. I always come during the regular nights so they play a lot of hip hop, r&b, rap, etc, but they do have salsa and techno events as well. The people are super chill. For the girls, you don't really have to worry about random people grabbing you and most guys respond to a firm NO. The bathroom facilities are adequate, and the bartenders alright. The drinks are a bit expensive (5-6 for beers and water, 8 and up for anything with liquor in it, 16 for a double vodka with redbull!) so plan accordingly before getting here. Cover's 20 dollars, but free on the guestlist before 11:30. If you get on the guestlist, make sure to get there early, because the line moves sloow and it gets pretty long. Interestingly enough, the line moves much faster after 11:30. For guys, don't breach any of their clothing rules, you will have to pay 20 if you're wearing white sneakers. They have bottle service for 250, which lets you cut the line, get a table, and a bottle of vodka. Afterwards, they sell food outside for hungry party people. I'm definitely coming back soon. I've been coming since 2007, and by far and large, this is the club my friends and I always compare other clubs to because honestly, we have never had a bad time at Opera. So check it out and see for yourself.
by Alice Dominique on This is a quiet interesting place. you walked in it's more lounging than a bar. a little bit fancy decor in this area. I would say it's not bad for happy hour. then you walked downstairs where they have basement room. It's completely a dive-bar vibe. 2 different scene in one place.. not so bad! no cover charge on a thursday not sure if it's the same on weekend. Looks like they have live performance in the basement sometimes.
by Illi G. on Friday July 24th we were out celebrating my sisters birthday. I lost my phone, my i.d and my olympus camera in one of the downstairs restrooms. I am desperately trying to use all my resources to retrieve my items. I have an ad up on craigslist if you would like more information. I am planning on visiting them tonight, I will repost with the results. Wish me luck! http://austin.craigsli...
