Dragonfly is amazing on Friday nights! They call the night fetish friday's and the place gets packed! I've been other nights of the week and it's been pretty calm, but there's something about a tyku drink special that packs bars! If you're looking for a good friday night this is the place to be.

16 friends and i went to this place, big mistake!!
They all paid to get into this place smooth sailing
as soon as i approached the door, "let me see the bottom of your shoes," You can't come in with those shoes on" why not?? they are too casual! too casual they are leather shoes, not sneakers! wheres the manager?? she's right here, as he points to a lady standing outside, um no she isn't the manager, then just as i turn around one of the employees enters the same door with similar shoes on!! So eventually some guy comes out to talk to me, well sorry, we had to turn others away also, well guess what you are about to turn 16 away tonight!! this guys shoes were beat up and dirty, he shouldnt be allowed to work there in my opinion!
Now i can understand if it were a black tie affair, or a corporate event, but this was a Saturday night!!
now with my attire i would be able to get into any other club. but they were predjudice this night for some reason,
I had on a very nice suit, but it just so happens that you can't where shoes with rubber on the bottom!! last i checked all shoes have rubber on the bottom.
all of my friends came out, and received a refund within 2 minutes of the shoe issue.
We went to a different club.
first impressions are lasting, and i will never go to this club again!!
lets do the math 16 times $10.00 i=$160.00
drinks i estimate 16 times $30.00 =$480.00
so lets see, thats $640.00 over shoes that happen to have rubber soles.
i give them a negative 10 stars
Please don't waste your time or energy here there are more places that will appreciate your business!!
Pros: none Ha! Zilch! REfund please!!
Cons: Shoe policy too strict, management is very uptight snobby

Editorial Review
Contributor, May 16, 2006
Swanky Gold Coast transplant adds regional Chinese to the menu on Randolph Street's restaurant row.
The Scene
Trendy West Loop diners are discovering this lounge-y, bi-level space on Randolph Street, whose straightforward dining scene gives way to a nightclub atmosphere on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights. Decor highlights include a sweeping staircase and two-story wine display, rich red walls and light fixtures, and gold foo dogs at the door.
The Food
For authenticity, a Chinese cooking crew creates high-quality, pricier renditions of regional cuisines encompassing Mandarin, Szechuan, Hunan and even some Cantonese, plus upscale seafood specialties (lobster, Dungeness crab, etc.). Divinely garlicky tofu is crispy-skinned with a silken interior; shrimp puffs are wrapped around crab claws which double as handles. Spicy, slurp-worthy Dragonfly noodles are rife with all sorts of shellfish; "dreaming roast duck" is a lovely variation on Peking duck with puffy bun wraps instead of pancakes; and tender, zesty orange peel beef puts those dry, stringy mystery-meat versions to shame.
