O Lounge

Yolo,O-lounge,Vibe in my opinion as a whole. First off I've been to this place a few times and have always loved the decor and set up of the place. The atmosphere on the other hand off sets the place in a big way, in the fact snobby stuck up people tend to be the type of people that mostly accommodate the property. Its very easy to be visually taken in by a decent hangout spot but its another when the place attracts a lot of egotistical personalities and it definitely shows horribly.

The social playground usually is in full swing throughout the venue, commonly older men getting hit on by younger women looking for money "sugar daddy", older women trying to be 20 years old again, younger guys accompanied by attractive escorts, and people flaunting their money and status for attention. I did enjoy the outgoing nature of some of the folks there, they didnt have any problems hitting the dance floor and being silly at the O-Lounge and Vibe. It was pretty funny for what it was.

On a brighter note, the food was very good especially the Calamari. The menu is abit pricey but not that bad. The waiting and service was spot on and efficient, the waitress was very nice and got our food and drinks in a timely manner. The music that they play at Vibe and O-lounge is decent but too top 40ish on many occasions.

I found myself being very uncomfortable at times at the authority figures aka the 'suits' of the place. Namely a slim guy named Tom, who I have been told is a GM there is very rude and carries a bad aura about him. Very creepy guy. It became more than evident that there is discrimination for minorities going on, when me and my friends were able to get in the O-Lounge with no problems when a young lady was checking people in. But then I witnessed them turn away Black people every single time. I didnt think much of it until I asked some of them later why they were turned away, and they said the young lady at the door said they had NO SPACE left, which was very untrue, in the fact they allowed white people in. The chunky manager guy with the spiked hair named 'Brandon' I believe was in on it as well because he supported her story. Me and my friends havent been back since that night because of that act of racism and discrimination. Its disgusting and as much the venue tried to mask, it was more than apparent.

Overall, a nice looking venue with a high point in food, service, and trendiness but horribly fails in the most important department of ethics and respect for people of all races. If you can ignore the hideous flaws of the place then its not so bad but then again why would you. Take my review for what it is.

went for ladies night holiday party. Server came to us in outside seating and was very helpful. Great group of people that range in age from old to young.

Great feel and very close to Yolo if you wanted to go from one to other in downtown. Menu isnt that extensive but they do have a sampler which allows you to share with group if your there mostly to drink and dance.

Great drinks and cool vibe makes this the go to place in the business district.
