Cool light show!
Rachael A.

My son and I traveled here to see a Daft Punk cover "band". They are really DJ's. The place itself is quite unique with several rooms joined together. So if you're in one room you still can hear a bit of music from the other room. Kind of strange but whatever. One of the rooms has a bit of seating of couches but in the big room to see the main act is standing room only unless you pay for a VIP booth with bottle service. The light show was cool and there is a faux magazine cover window to stand behind for photo ops.

We were looking for a happening nightclub in Downtown San Diego and got a free entry pass while walking around Gas Lamp area so decided to check out Bloom. This is an underground club so the entry is interesting. As soon as we were inside, we were blown away by the neon lights. They had plenty of seating outside the dance area. The drinks are a little expensive. I highly suggest pregaming before heading there . I like that they separated out the dance area and the seating area. It allows people to catch their breath and relax in the lounge area. Their women restrooms are also very clean and have a seating area. The music was great - not too loud, great playlist! You have to checkout this club if you are in downtown on a Friday or Saturday night!

Newer club in downtown SD. The entrance is actually on E street by the neon sign. The exit is on Fourth Street. It's a very well kept club with two different rooms. The first room you enter into has a cool photo opp behind glass like a magazine cover, and a standard DJ. There are sofas there to lounge in. The main room is good sized with the bar and main DJ stage. We came for the Dance Yourself Clean Indie Mix Night playing M83, Cannons, Rufus Du Sol, Tame Impala, Odesza, and more. It was a great set and this indie electronic party travels all around the US. The next one will be popping up in LA this Friday.

A nice club, basic club ambiance with pretty good sound and lighting. I really liked that there was a DJ playing quieter music in the entryway lounge and the main act in the big dance floor room. The bar line got long as the night went but never took too long. They do not offer food, to my understanding. Drinks were fine. Basic, overpriced club drinks. Would return for specific DJs.

Exceptional Hosting by Keagan at Side Bar and Gaslamplighter!…read more If you are planning a corporate event, team-bonding outing, or just looking for an unforgettable night out in San Diego, you absolutely need to visit Side Bar and Gaslamplighter. Our team was in town for our quarterly QBR last quarter, and we went out afterward to let loose on the town. We randomly came across Side Bar on a Thursday night and met Blake the manager who introduced us to Keagan, who completely transformed our entire trip. He was the ultimate curator! He immediately assessed our group's vibe, realized we were out for team bonding, and invited us right in, securing a fantastic VIP booth for my team. After a few shots and grooving to great music, he personally ushered us over to Gaslamplighter for a change of scenery, where we spent the rest of the night enjoying amazing drinks and live karaoke. The experience was so incredible that on our second night out, after hopping around various other bars in the Gaslamp Quarter, our team unanimously decided to end our night right back at Side Bar. Once again, Keagan took flawless care of us. He hooked us up with another booth and a few bottles. We happened to be celebrating a team member's birthday that night, and Keagan made it unforgettable. The staff brought out the full VIP treatment with bright sparklers and "Happy Birthday" signs to close out the night in style. What makes Keagan so special is his attention to detail. Even while working a packed club and making his rounds to ensure everyone was taken care of, he constantly circled back to check on our group. He made every single person on our team feel incredibly important and looked after on both nights. We walked away with fantastic pictures, amazing team memories, and a strong desire to return. Shout out to Keagan and the exceptional teams at both Side Bar and Gaslamplighter; memories were truly made! I highly recommend these venues for any group outing in downtown San Diego.

The place has a nice vibe and our table came with a liquor bottle of our choice, champagne and a cute board+slide show of our bride. The only reason why I'm giving it 3 stars is because I don't like how they allow everyone to the back once it gets busy. We had people trying to get on top of our reservation and there was a lot least 2-3 areas where people threw up around us that wasn't cleaned. It became VERY crowded and honestly uncomfortable, it didn't seem like there was any staff moderation for people being overly intoxicated or over capacity. The place is beautiful but I just had better experiences even at smaller venues.

The pool tables were also unavailable, because they invited a pool club team on that day. That seemed to be bad timing on a day that could have been a very high revenue generating evening. I was trying to find out why this place was empty for one of the biggest sporting events of the Summer? I think I found my answer when I ordered a drink. Although $20 for a Long Island Iced Tea is comparable for an upscale restaurant, this place is a dive bar, so it should have been included in a well-drink special menu to bring customers in the door. The selling point of dive bars is usually the reasonable drink prices, the sense of community, and a good place to watch sporting events. This place has potential, but this was unfortunately a miss on all 3 fronts.

Extremely disappointing experience, $2,000 spent for unacceptable service…read more We came to Onyx Room in San Diego to celebrate a birthday with 20 friends and had a bottle service table reserved. We spent approximately $2,000, expecting a great experience, but the service was extremely disappointing. After our first set of bottles was delivered, our waitress barely checked on us. We were left without cups, chasers, or anyone attending to our table. About 1.5 hours later, the next set of bottles was finally brought out -- again, with no cups or chasers. We repeatedly had to chase down staff just to get the basic necessities for our table. The situation became so frustrating that my girlfriend and I eventually had to go into the private staff area to address the issue directly. The promoter eventually offered us two bottles of champagne to make up for the inconvenience, but by then there were only about 40 minutes left before closing, making the gesture far too late to meaningfully fix the experience. What made it even more frustrating was the automatic 20% gratuity added to our approximately $2,000 bill, despite the fact that we received very little table service and spent much of the night trying to get staff's attention. We understand that nightclubs get busy, but when you're spending this much money on bottle service, you should not have to repeatedly ask for cups, chasers, or basic service. If you're considering Onyx Room for a special occasion or planning to spend significant money on bottle service, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere in San Diego. I hope management reviews what happened and considers a meaningful partial refund or discount on what we spent, because two bottles of champagne with 40 minutes remaining did not adequately compensate for the experience.

I was lucky to be suggested GNJB as a venue option for a corporate event I was putting together. Not only was it super easy to get in touch with Rick, he made planning this event so seamless. Rick was always available to chat, quick to respond and was able to answer any/all questions I had. His suggestions were always helpful and appreciated. Belinda was also such a pleasure to work with. She was always accommodating to our needs and requests. Her team delivered the best service for our guests - from the security (shout out Sebastian) to the bartenders. What a dream team!

The space is 70s themed and they have two disco balls right in the center of the dance floor. The music was mostly 70s right when we went around 8 but as the night went on they mixed in a lot more genres. So everyone will find something they like. The DJ definitely could have been better though. They rotated through songs really fast so just as we were getting into something it was already changing. Service at the bar was really friendly and prices aren't unreasonable. Cocktails were tasty, albeit a little sweet.

I highly recommend signing up for an evening with Club Train versus just going out and showing up…read moreat a club on your own. No lines, no hassle, no cover fees and a free drink (shot) to start. I also enjoyed the entourage aspect of it with our Club Train leaders Alex and Vince, dressed in dapper bow ties and suits, shepherding us around the Gaslamp district of downtown San Diego. I tried out Club Train last weekend (bought my ticket through Pacific SD Magazine for extra savings). The itinerary included a set schedule for visits to Don Chido, F6ix, Side Bar and FLUXX with an hour at each location and 90 minutes at the last one. The evening was slow to start, as my friend and I found ourselves bored at our first stop, the new bar/restaurant Don Chido, where the group was to meet and depart to the clubs. If we could do it again, we would've shown up later for that first stop because it was not necessary to be there the whole first hour. We were told by our Club Train organizers that there were food and drinks specials at Don Chido. When we got there, we were seated at a table, then ignored by waitstaff for a long time before we finally asked someone who then told us we had to get drinks at the bar in order to get our Club Train deal. Also, we were told by the Don Chido staff there were no food specials. By showing our Club Train wristbands, we ended up with $5 margaritas (half price!) from the bar so it wasn't a complete loss but we felt like we wasted a lot of time in Don Chido and that the night was off to a rough start. Once our group leader summoned all of us (around 30 people), things went smoother as we then proceeded to each club. The evening then flew by as we had about an hour in each venue. Our Club Train leaders escorted us as a group from club to club but it was fine when we twiced missed our group leaving. We were still able to follow on our own with our wristbands. It was nice to be taken care of but not completely babysat, as once you are inside the club you're on your own. I didn't get a chance to talk to other members of our group, but theoretically you could probably make new friends in Club Train. A Club Train ticket normally costs $30, but I got the magazine deal where it was $20 with fees (total $22), which is a steal. The highlight of Club Train was the group photo at the end of the night. The group leaders always have the group gather together and take a photo in the middle of Market Street which is a lot of fun. Timing is everything with the traffic lights!
