I'm originally from Seattle and this is the only place in Vegas that reminds me of home. You have to be a true music lover to really appreciate this place. If you are into the trendy Eurotrash club scene (all over the strip) you may feel out of place in your "shiny shirt & sunglasses at night" (aka douchebag attire) here. Don't get me wrong...The Double Down doesn't discriminate and welcomes all.
I've shown up in a suit & tie after work as well as jeans and a t-shirt at 4am. I guess I'm saying closed minded, prissy, uptight folks with elitist attitudes are the ones who will have a bad time here. It's not the place...it's the mindset. If you are expecting the "glitz & glamor" of Vegas, you won't find it here and will be disappointed.
However, If you are looking to escape the typical Vegas crowds, want to hear the best jukebox in town, like live loud music and want to get your drink on, this is it!
My only real complaints would be that it can become a smoke pit for us non smokers but that is an issue ANYWHERE in Vegas. Also, I've been told that the bathrooms are "scary" from females. Glad I pee standing up!
Ian, Ryan & Mello are the best bartenders in town!
*Edit*
This is one of the few places I miss after moving out of Vegas. Hey Moss, you've opened up in NYC...may I suggest a Double Down Seattle?
