I chose this lounge for an evening out based on the Yelp reviews. I wasn't dissapointed but I wasn't bowled over either. The crowd was really interesting, a mix of different age and ethnic groups but everyone knew the songs the DJ played. There was new rap (which I hate), some old school stuff, and house music that brought me back to the early 90's. It was nice. I just wish there had been more room to move around.

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of this place but I'm giving it three stars because one of my best friend's is a bartender here. Ladies, go check him out. He's a little hottie. The crowd is diverse but its' too  damn small, i dont care for the music and well i just dont care for it. I'll pop in there once in a while to get free drinks.

Was here last weekend to visit friends attending a bday party and overall it's an okay place.  Music was good with lots of old school hip-hop/RB, mixed with modern hits.  DJ during some breaks wasn't that clean, but didn't really mind when having drinks/fun with friends.  Drink prices were okay.  Overall, okay place, drink prices okay.

When I went there weren't many people here (Thursday night), but I really liked the vibe. They were playing a mix of afro pop, punjabi beats, and reggaeton. I kind of equate the ambiance of Par to that of a hookah lounge but without the hookahs. It was a great place to come to chat with friends and just lounge.

I had my birthday party here, and spoke with Dana.  She plans a lot of the promotions and events there for the lounge.  She did a great job giving me options for packages, and set us up in the front area of the lounge where my friends and I were able to get seating.  Just look for the address 1415 as their sign right now.  As mentioned they do have great music here.  It really makes you want to get up and dance.  You just need someone to start it!  It can get pretty crowded as the night goes on, and it's not a big area to begin.  I think the bartenders are the ones that are the owners or the managers of the lounge, too.  They seem very cool.  It was a pretty mixed crowd that night, and it was lots of fun.  I like how everyone was kind of dressed up there, and made me feel more like I was going out which was the type of mood I was in.  I definitely wouldn't mind coming back.

Ezuli's this is not.  Six of us stopped by here to use free drink tickets they were giving out at the Silver Room Block Party.  The music was okay but the DJ kept cutting songs off with no blending.  The bathroom was disgusting and the art on the wall was meh.  I really loved Ezuli so this is all incredibly biased, btw.  I'd stop by if friends wanted to go, but I wouldn't be the one suggesting it.

Ok So after reading reviews for this place I thought I would head over there this past Friday. Let me start by saying the music was great. Man I needed to listen to some hip hop some good music. There is no cover!!! No wait thank goodness cause this girl doesn't wait in lines.The people are very chic and that gives for some good eye candy. They had $4 dollar effen rasp specials woot woot...right up my alley. The decor was dark but went well with the vibe.Places closes at 2am...kinda bummed about that but hey I headed elsewhere.

I went to Par Lounge recently on a Friday night for my friend's party and was dissapointed.  It was smaller then I had imagined. It was really crowded for such a small space. There was a good amount of seating which in a way made it more crowded. I asked the waitress for a mojito and she said the bartenders don't serve them when the place is crowded. Then I ordered another basic mixed drink, they didn't offer, so I settled for something else, and she completely forgot to bring me. I would give this place 2.5 stars.  The music was a decent mix and so was the crowd. This place would be nice to just chill after a long day of work but I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a place to go dancing or celebrate a big party.  The atmosphere was nice, but good luck finding parking to see that nice atmosphere.

On Saturdays, it's PACKED with a line out the door after midnight, but really dead during the week.  Thursdays has $4 specials for hamburgers, mojitos, sangria, and martinis.  The music is mainly mainstream, underground, and old school hip-hop on Saturdays, and more chill beats during the week.  The crowd is mostly minorities (African-American majority).  The space is small but intimate enough for small parties because of the sectioned off seating areas.  There are two bathroom stalls downstairs.  Too far for me to come here, but if I lived within walking distance, I would!
