It's a fun place to see live bands, but it's very small so it gets pretty crowded & very hot in there!

Price of beer is amazingly affordable for the Plateau. The sound is good. Basement can get very hot even with AC when it's crowded so dress accordingly. Nice terrace.

I was expecting to come to a latin club as the description indicates, so was completely surprised to find there was nothing latin about it when we arrived. I wasn't dead set on a latin experience so I didn't mind, but I just found it surprising & humourous that it was pitched as a latin spot. This was a full out college bar, average age range was 18-23. Corresponding to this - the drinks are cheap. Although it is a very limited bar. The bartenders are great though. This place gets really crowded later into the night. Music is primarily club anthems anywhere from the late 90's to current, but leaning towards songs that are 5-15 years old. No cover & the doormen don't give you attitude so they get points for being easygoing as well.
