Overview:
There's always a bit of
excitement that comes with entering an unknown place.
Walking down the stairs into the Onyx Room, you don't know
if you're in for a seedy, underground bar or a swanky, posh
venue for those in the know. Lucky for you, it's the latter.
Dimly lighted fixtures accent the low ceilings, casting a
warm glow on the small (but comfortable) red chairs that hug
the numerous tables about the room. Dozens of multicolored
bottles line the shelves behind the bar, buttressed by a
beautifully luminescent counter.
Settle back into a chair with
a sinfully delicious cocktail and listen to piano player
belt out lounge tunes. This is only the front room. Head to
the cozy back room for live jazz or DJ-spun dance music.
Live events held throughout the week fill up and are well
worth the absolutely free cover Onyx charges. As of now,
Fridays and Saturdays are the only days the venue charges a
cover.
