by Sandy W. on Came here on a Saturday night at just past 11 and it was pretty empty. Maybe cos they'd closed guestlist by then? My friends noted that the other times they've been to Roe, it was pretty packed, so it was kind of strange. There's a downstairs area where they were playing house/dance music (where there were hardly any people) and an upstairs area where they were playing top 40 stuff with bad mash-ups (more people here). The sound system downstairs was much better than upstairs, but there was some drummer downstairs that couldn't follow the beat of the music, which was obnoxious. The crowd seemed to be overall pretty young, but I did occasionally see some old guys and wondered why they were out... I liked that I wasn't smushed up against a bunch of sweaty people, but this place was also really boring and the DJs were mediocre. Pass.
by Melissia Gepner on Mango's is fun. It's a cool place with a great, unique experience. However, it's boring if you're under 25 years old and there are better places a block away for the 21-24 crowd. We went to Mango's during Spring Break 2010 and what we found was a very, very tropical-themed place. Right when we walked in we heard some good music, but it got old when we realized this place only plays Latin music. One cool thing, though, is that they have dancers on top of the bar dressed in very exotic outfits and often a small band playing some good tunes.. but, again, it's 100% Latin music. We left and I didn't come back. My friends went back on our last night for a bit and they were charging a $10 cover to get in (there's only a cover on Friday and Saturday), were not allowed to wear hats (Friday and Saturday nights are no-hats) and there was something like a "$20 per musical set" minimum for drink orders.. kind of ridiculous. If I return to SoBe, I won't be going back to Mango's. It's worth a 30-minute trip, but if you're a college kid go to The Clevelander and really enjoy your time.
