I came here on a bit of a ladies night deal. More or less one of the gals that I was with had the ability to get us in to a dance bar, and we took advantage of it. It turned out that this was the night that the Flames played Philadelphia and the guys from the team ended up showing up around midnight.
My first thought was that the venue was pretty sweet. I like the fact that it is a theater and there are a couple of levels. I was not impressed with the fact that coat check was full at 11pm. Really? It was freezing that night and your coat check is full when the bar is not even full? Get some more space. You don't exactly have any where to store your coats unless you are sitting at a table.
The service was O-K. Nothing special. The waitresses on the main floor were girls and they would constantly go to the men before serving us girls. Although she didn't balk when we asked for water.
Once the hockey team arrived it was like an entirely different club. The dresses/skirts/excuses for bottoms got shorter and the cleavage bearing became more obvious. In fact I am pretty sure that all the girls that were there were just trying to be a story. it was a little much to handle.
The DJ was fantastic. He did some great mash ups and really worked the crowd. I would probably only return to UBU with full knowledge that the DJ would be there again. He made it fun to dance that night.
On a final note, the creeper hold in the ceiling was a little strange
