Review Summary

Muni Restaurant & Golf Club is described as a fresh and well designed space where the golf simulators feel premium and the bar kitchen and atmosphere are highly enjoyable. Reviews praise the realistic Golfzon systems that recreate slopes and textures, the private rooms, and the social vibe that suits families or groups looking for a fun outing. Food and drinks get strong praise for quality and variety, with favorites like mac and cheese and pimento toast mentioned, and the overall setting described as stylish, welcoming, and suitable for a night out. A few negative notes appear, including an incident with a cameraman invading a reserved booth, a booth with a broken floor, and service hiccups such as missing a round of drinks or slow refills, along with mixed opinions on value because tipping is tied to the simulator and total bill.

District Video Lounge

Open until 3 am
(42)

Review Summary

District Video Lounge is praised for a lively welcoming vibe and friendly attentive staff, with a diverse Latino-influenced crowd and surprisingly strong drinks, including standout martinis. The venue has a large bar and a compact, in-demand space that can feel crowded, which some guests see as part of the charm while others find it tight. Music is a frequent talking point: many enjoy a solid playlist with recognizable tracks, but frequent song changes and a DJ who favors personal selections can disrupt the mood on some nights. Food is not available, and beer prices are relatively high for the village. Overall it is regarded as one of the best bars in the village with great music and vibe, though experiences can vary by night and crowd.View restaurant profile
