This place has been around for a long time and gone through a few renovations. Right now they have cheap drinks before midnight on a Friday (3.50 or 4...i'm not a big drinker so i'm not sure).
I went this past Friday and the lineup was all the way down the alleyway. If you go after 1045pm be prepared for a big line-up unless you are a regular or know someone that works there.
The music there is a mix. R&B hip hop, top 40...the usual.
Friday night is asian night but there is usually a mix crowd.
There is a low number of creepy guys and most guys don't persist if they see you are not interested.
If you buy drinks from a particular bartender and run a tab, they may give you free passes so you don't have to line up or pay cover.
Cover is $15 on Fridays. Not sure about any other night.
