I hardly know where to begin. Noisy. Smoke filled. Lots of statuesque women with ruby lips…read more (Appearance was clearly given far higher priority than intelligence when hiring wait staff.) Essentially, this is a bar that serves some food ... badly. Menu is entirely in Spanish -- and while they do provide an iPad with most menu items translated (poorly) into English, none of the waitresses speak a word of English -- so when we made a selection, they weren't sure what we were ordering, and entered the wrong item into their system. We ordered a large salad and a "platter" entree, both to share. The salad arrived, but with the wrong entree ... which they took back, and didn't bother to reorder the correct one! We found this out only after waiting 45 minutes for the correct entree, only to discover that it was never going to arrive. Rather than wait another hour, we bailed. Don't eat here. You can probably get a decent drink or glass of wine (I don't know for sure, as I don't drink alcohol) -- but if it's food you're after, go around the corner to Juan y Medio, or down the street to Ocean Pacific or Los Vikingos.

This bar is risky they have a pole for dancing right in the center and an upstairs VIP lounge (perfect for B-days or exclusive parties). They have an all night every night two for one special. Why not start off with two piscolas right off the bat for the price of one. The have karaoke and random sexy dances by the sexy men who work there. This is technically a gay bar but I like to go with my girl friends or my guy friends for some cheap drinks and to get the night going with something a little different. They have a variety of seating from a typical round table, to cozy pillow covered benches. The lighting is low and very party like.

It's nice this place is open on Monday! Really roomy inside! Nice projectors around for ambianceread more

It is a great place to go for a drink and dance after dinner in Bellavista. Very fun and easy going crowd with great music by both international and Chilean DJ's as well as live bands (a great escape from all the reggaeton which is so popular in chile). They have two dance floors and one is more tecno focused while the other is funk mixed with classic pop (depending on the night). I have always had a great time here and my friends and I have danced until the wee hours of the night. They also have great cocktails and happy hour - they even have servers up until around 12am where you will then have to fight your way to one of the bars. Tip: Bring your ID - I know that is a given, but I have gotten super lax about it and if you don't have one on you, the bouncers wont let you in. Also, if you come before 11pm you can get in free - otherwise you will have to pay. Keep an eye out on their Twitter or FB page as a lot of times you can get in free by adding yourself to the guest list.
