Good music, cool atmospher. It is still one of Jakarta's top party places. It has a small dance floor usually full of expats and sexy local girls. Prices are slightly above average for individual drinks, but they give you a drink with the entrance fee. Music is hip hop, EDM, Top 40, Rn'B depending on the night. Great for pick-up.
