The music is always great. Shoutout to Jason behind the bar. He's consistently friendly and makes the night even better. Honestly, the whole staff does a great job. If you're going with a group, I'd recommend getting a table since it can get really busy. On weekends they have a cover, and it's cash only. There's an ATM inside. Also, pay attention to the dress code. No baseball hats, and they do enforce it. Overall, it's a solid spot for a night out.

Overall a nice nightclub and bar to hang out in downtown San Diego. It's right across the street…read morefrom the ACE parking lot called "Park It On Market" so easy parking. Parking is $10 after 6pm until 3am. The ambiance is modern and sexy. The front part of the venue is a bar with several tables and love seats spread throughout. There's also a small outdoor area with a few tables and bar stools if you need some fresh air. Behind the bar is the actual night club area with the DJ booth, several VIP tables, and a smaller bar. There isn't a dedicated dance floor so people are just dancing wherever there's space. You can get on the guest list through their website for free bar/club entry before 10pm. After 10pm, there is a cover fee of $20 per person. It was quiet around 930pm when we arrived but it got pretty busy by 1030pm and crowded by 1130pm. Note: the back night club area opens at 11pm. If you come before then, only the front bar area is open. They apparently serve food as well but we didn't try it this time. I felt service was great from the bartenders to security to the servers. The DJ was playing awesome hip hop music which was perfect for the vibe. They even have a professional photographer who takes your photo. If you like it, it's $20 for your picture in a frame. Two things that can make it even better: - wish there was a bigger dance floor for those without tables to enjoy the music and dance - wish there was more than 2 bathroom stalls in the women's restroom. With hundreds of people inside, the line can get pretty long.

The music was great, the drinks were on point, and the country dancing made the night even better. Em does a fantastic job teaching the dance lessons--she's clear, patient, and makes it fun for dancers of all levels. One thing I've noticed, though, is that it seems like she only teaches a few dances now. I feel like she used to instruct more in the past, and it would be awesome to see her bring back a wider variety. Her instruction really adds to the night, and a few more dances would make Saloon Sunday even stronger. Honestly, Saloon Sunday should definitely happen more often--maybe even every Sunday. It's the perfect mix of great music, good drinks, friendly vibes, and fun dancing. Already looking forward to the next one!

I seriously wish they had country nights more than twice a month because I'd be there every time. The vibe is always so welcoming -- from the staff to the crowd, everyone is friendly and makes it such a fun, comfortable place to dance. Huge shoutout to Lexie for the amazing decorations -- she did such a beautiful job and really set the tone for the night. I also have to give some love to Country Dancing Em. Her lessons are always a blast, easy to follow, and full of good energy. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and it makes the whole experience even better. Already counting down the days until the next event -- I'll definitely be back on the dance floor!

PARQ NIGHTCLUB @ DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO…read more Parking is available for street for pay or you can also purchase parking in their garage lots. I definitely wished Downtown was good for parking but it's the worse and can get pretty busy. I was invited to the Up & Up Festival Event yesterday for DJ Odd Mobb to perform, located at Parq Nightclub. The event started at 8pm but I did arrive at around 9:45pm, and the line was wrapped around the entire area. We did make it in within 10 minutes. The place was spacious, huge, and I really loved the ambiance. The decor makes it special and unique, there are also rooms downstairs! Overall, the venue itself was spacious and very well designed. The staff were friendly, but definitely were strict! I was able to get two guest passes for my friend and I to go behind the side stage which was nice! Overall, great place and vibes

Hello, I go to Onyx…read morepretty often, that is my friends and I go-to spot for night outs. It is usually a good time, but last night was so out of line... I (25F) got kicked out by security for pushing one of the security guards. I was walking over to one of the rooms downstairs when I just felt a huge body shove from a man, my I guess natural and protective response was then to shove them back. The I then get grabbed by my arm with force VERY AGGRESSIVELY by a man yelling at me saying I am done, I'm out, etc. I have to hold on to a wall to get myself not to get dragged by this man. My friends come in to help sooth the situation, but no matter what they say the security guard is yelling at them, at me, and continues to pull on me along with other security staff. I did not know that man who had pushed me was security and once I realized it was, I immediately apologized by saying OMG I didn't know you were security, I just thought it was a random guy pushing people! Keep in mind, I am a 4'11'' woman, in heels, a little tipsy, so when I got shoved over (for whatever reason) it made me lose all of my balance and I believe there was absolutely no need for all of that aggression. Anything my friends said or I said did not matter. They wanted me out. Once I was outside this security guard just kept talking down to me and laughing at me. It was the most disrespectful thing I've experienced here. I'm not sure what that security guard was going through that night or even personally, but he can not be grabbing people any way he wants just because he is having a rough night.

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!

On 01/03/26 I came up to the front entrance and I was either reciting a song or going over my own lyrics as I am a poet. After a few minutes of this I went to enter and a short hispanic security guard haughtily told me "You look odd. And I saw you over there talking to yourself. I'm not letting you in." I explained that I wasn't "talking to myself" I was reciting music (my own or somebody else's , as I often do karaoke). He said "Ok. I'm still not letting you in." with an attitude. What the hell? Never once have I caused an issue at this bar. All the security guards know me. I've never seen this guy before in my life so I guess he thought he could bully me for no reason. What a shame. To top it all off when I got irritated with him he laughed in my face and loudly yelled "Weirdo!!" at me in front of multiple witnesses. This is disgusting behavior and incredibly unprofessional. I've been to The Tipsy Crow countless times and never been so insulted and mistreated. I don't know the guard's name but is a short dude, I believe hispanic. I will find out his name and report this to the manager. This was beyond unacceptable. He continued to sneer and laugh at me while i was outside in shock at being turned away. What a jerk.

I ordered 7 shots & Tipsy added some interesting numbers. They hid charges in the Toast payment terminal vs showing you an itemized list of charges. $109.88 for 7 little shots. I showed friends my receipt & they all agreed this is BS charging. My other tab for $40 for 2 drinks didn't text to me either. Special Taxes? Why put the credit card surcharge on the tab too? This is on top of service charges. County & State Taxes... Put very clear signs up if you're going to add all these extra fees. Other places in Downtown don't add these crazy fees on a tab for drinks... I went to other local places & made sure to check the final bills.
