Can I say I love Lava Gina?! This may just be the bar I've been looking for all my life! Danceable tunes w/ worldy beats, inexpensive drinks, exciting decor, laidback vibe, good hospitality & personality (it even has a v-shaped bar)! I love trying out new places & this completely lived up to the previous reviewer's assessment! Chris, the owner, was a doll - really hooked us up, was very accomodating, good followup w/ all our communications too. He also emailed me the next day to wish me a happy bday again and remembered every detail i'd mentioned in our conversation on the day of - impressive. We had no problem getting our reserved space & taking up about half the bar for about 50 people. The lounge is cozy and comfortable, just the right size. The drinks were yummy, well priced, appropriately potent. Music was awesome (highlight was when they spun some salsa & i grabbed my friend the amazing lead ;-) - they played everything from samba to african beats to hindi music. My friends loved the place, and many complimented the venue choice and asked me how i found it. I hope you check it out!
Pros: atmosphere, hospitality/service, drinks
Cons: wish it were closer to train station
