We visited this place twice during our trip to Cali. Despite going on a weekend, it was completely empty. It seems that it was once a great spot, and it still has a lot of potential. The staff couldn't have been friendlier: from the security guards to the person collecting payment at the entrance and the bartender, everyone was very attentive and helpful. I hope to return to Cali and prove me wrong, because this place really looks and feels like a great place to have a good time.

Terrible service. They tell you they don't have certain types of beer to force you to buy the most expensive ones or the "giraffe" (a large, expensive beer). The atmosphere is awful... Nothing good to say about this place.
