In Short
Here, you get two clubs for one cover charge. On the dance club side, rainbow flags fly high. DJs swimming in neon lights spin '80s, Top 40 and techno booty-shaking beats, while young hipsters crowd the dance floor. If the club's dance energy isn't up to snuff, head next door for one of Embers' famous drag shows where you'll see Dolly Parton and Madonna like you've never experienced.

This place would have earned 3 stars if they didn't make the weakest alcoholic drinks I may have ever had. For $4 I need rum in my coke. I ended up spending $4 per shot (mixed drink was as much as the shots...) $2 jello shots, I don't think I've ever paid more than $1 for one. Bill Cosby is turning over in his grave. Despite that we had a pretty good time.

Embers is a great time. There's a big, open room (that's usually empty on weeknights- never been on a weekend), and then a smaller room for drag shows. The drag shows are wonderful! Everyone is fabulously dressed. It's a good place for birthday parties, bachelor/bachelorette parties, etc. The drinks are cheap, too.
