Fantastic, intimate venue with phenomenal sound. Less than 10 minutes walking from Civic Center BART. Full bar.

I went in for Yin Yin, they were amazing but the venue is not good. Sound system was OVERLY loud and also had random drops during a performance which is terrible. I will probably avoid this venue in future, though luck for whoever ends up performing here. Your true potential is capped due to a bad venue.

Came to this venue for a Nerd Nite talk. I liked the cozy vibe with eclectic furniture and flyers for related events, but the balcony level was really poorly managed. There were a scant few couches laid out weirdly, and everyone else was forced to stand -- by squeezing themselves to the sides of the couches, because no one could stand directly in front of the people sitting in them. But 90% of the floor space was directly in front of the couches, so most of the floor space was wasted while other areas were extremely cramped. And then in the front of the balcony there was a large obstruction sitting on the left side table, so the people sitting in the couch behind it couldn't see the performers either. It was also really warm inside the venue with no recourse except a single non-rotating fan sitting on a table.

The venue is great for an intimate set and indie performers, however; I can’t say I truly had a good experience. The AC system (or worse, a roof leak) was constantly dripping down on anyone in the crowd to stage left throughout the entirety of the performance at random intervals. Being a standing-room only and the crowd being tight is by no means the venues fault, but just 5 minutes of randomly inconsistent drips felt like Chinese water torture. None of this even covers how unsanitary it felt having random roof water drip all over my head, face, and body for 2 hours. Would rather miss out on seeing my favorite indie artist make their only Bay Area stop than subject myself to that again. Major repairs needed.
