I was at a local mixer event when we decided to come by here and continue the party. The Vinyl Room…read moreis always a solid choice because of the drinks, but especially because of the no cover charge at the door. The DJ was pretty good that night and he covered top music from 90's to today. Drinks were sooooo good!! We started off with just tequila and soda, but as the night got later I needed a little pick me up. I was initially going for an espresso martini, but I saw After Hours which consisted of Tequila Reposado, Espresso Liquor 43, Coconut and Milk Wash and ofc I had to get that... All I can say is WOW!! There were other drinks that looked really interesting too, but I wasn't trying to get too faded, so I'll have to come back and check them out. Service was very prompt and friendly despite it being pretty busy.

I went to Vinyl Room on 4/21/26 around 10pm with my friend, her boyfriend, and my wife and it was…read moresuper fun! Not a lot of people were there, so it was a relaxing environment to talk to them in. We got so many drinks -- they're typical prices for bars, but I am very glad about my selection being drinks I thoroughly enjoyed. Jarrito Jam was my first one, it was delicious, but I honestly bought it to hold the little clay pot it came in. Nutty By Nature was my second drink. I enjoyed it, but it lacked the pistachio aspect of the flavorings. Orange Crush was my third drink and I loved it more than Nutty By Nature. My spouse got a Tiki Track and Tropicana and loved both of them a lot! I also loved my spouse's Tropicana drink and plan on getting it tonight when we go back to get my wallet I left there! Thank you to the people who picked up the phone today and helped me locate my wallet!

We had a table and I noticed that the staff kept on checking how many used glasses we have and replacing them without us asking them.  The downside: the floor was sticky all over the club. We got there around 10 pm and from the moment we stepped into the club, our shoes kept on sticking to every square foot of the club: entrance, dance floor, at the table, near the table.  Not sure why, because I've seen staff wash all the slipped spots right away

Would not recommend coming here.

Came after it opened since there's no cover and no one was there and we got a drink and stayed there for around 30 minutes. No one came during that time and we left. In terms of drinks, got an expresso martini for ~$14 made with Nescafé instant coffee powder served in a disposable plastic cup. Overall, would not recommend.

The atmosphere feels fun and unpretentious, and it's the kind of place you can actually relax and enjoy yourself. They have live music, and I think they even host a salsa night, which adds to the energy and keeps things interesting. It's just a really cool bar to hang out at without feeling overly crowded or try-hard. Overall, a solid spot with personality. I'd totally recommend coming here with your friends if you're looking for a fun, easygoing night out.

They had hyped it up quite a bit, so I came in with high expectations--and it lived up to them. We went on a Friday night and didn't even have to pay a cover, which was a great surprise. The inside had beautiful Japanese-inspired decor that gave the place a unique atmosphere, and even with how busy it was, everything felt well-maintained. The bathrooms were clean, which is always a plus. The staff were incredibly attentive and worked hard to make sure everyone was taken care of, even though the bar was absolutely packed. The DJ was amazing that night too! My friends and I spent most of our time on the dance floor because the music was so good. Overall, the energy, service, and atmosphere made for such a fun night out. Kaizen has officially become one of my favorite downtown spots, and I'll definitely be coming back whenever I'm looking for a fun night with great vibes and good company.

October 5-8, 2006 in Burlingame, CA. is the best West Coast Swing dance competition in the US…read more Usually on the Columbus day, holiday weekend of October. 1200 WCSwing competitors and social dancers come from across the US, Canada, England, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, Scotland and France to compete, take workshops and social dance on a 5200 sq. ft. dance floor. Four days are allotted for WCS dancing and socializing. There is also a second ballroom for Lindy dancers. If you want to see the best West Coast swing in the country, come out on a Saturday or Sunday night and see the best of the best compete, it is awesome to see. If you love partner dancing, love dancing to top 40's, R & B, Motown, Blues and Jazz, this is the dance for you. The 3 day event pass covers watching the competitions, social dancing, 10+ workshops and Saturday buffet. There are one day passes and evening passes avail for those who just want to check it out. Nearby to other restaurants, Max's Opera Cafe, Elephant Bar and a movie theater.

The lessons and the dance were just $10. I've never taken a class that had 200 students in it! It is a spectacle to see so many pairs of wcs enthuasiasts, all their slots lined up in parallel - there were four rows of maybe 50 people each running across the entire dance floor, which was held in the main conference room. As we rotated partners, I think I barely got through one row to the other side of the floor. The teachers, Kyle and Sara, were fabulous, complementing each other as they gave commentary and critique in rapid-fire succession. And of course, there was a free dance afterwards, where all the convention competitors took to the floor and lit in on fire. Literally.
