"2014-01-21T00:00:00"^^ . "Could this be my new favorite bar? You bet!\n\nI've been here twice-both times were SO much fun. I had been wanting to check this place out for a while and quite happy I finally did. It's a gem in central Phoenix. \n\nParking is a bit sketchy--we've been lucky to get a spot in the parking lot, but that was only the first time we went. This past Friday we went and ended up parking in a lot across the street, where there was a man selling ribs straight off the grill. Random, much? \n\nThis place isn't much from the outside, but once inside-it's like you're taking to another realm. It oozes cool without being pretentious. Char's is tiny-I wouldn't be surprised if they were at over capacity on the weekends.\nDespite that, no one seems to be bothered by it being so crowded-I swear every person I encountered was super polite and friendly. I was offered a place to sit at the bar so I could get a drink by a nice gentleman who wanted to just go out and bust a move on the dance floor.\n\nI've been on a Sunday and Friday-both times Soul Power was playing. They ROCK. Usually, I'm like \"meh\" towards cover bands, but they cover songs and make them all their own. I pretty much was dancing from the time I walked in the door until I left, pausing of course to order a drink. \n\nOverall, a great place for drinks and live music with people from every demographic! If you're a fan of Rhythm Room, you'll probably like this place."^^ . . "3"^^ . "0"^^ . "5"^^ . . . "0"^^ .
