Since we weren't able to do the mystery dinner and were already downtown we decided to go to Mario's Place for dinner. It has a great ambiance with dim lights, elegant decorations, and even a live jazz band that started at 10pm. The food was amazing! We split the different appetizers and entrees that we ordered and everything tasted great! Even food that I don't usually like tasted good. It was expensive for the appetizer and desert portions, but that's a given at nice restaurants. The meal portions were perfect.
After dinner we went to Worthington's Tavern. It is a smaller bar, but has some interesting features. It has a pool table in the main area, as well as a seperate room that has a pool table. It has another room that is completely empty so people can dance, and there's a dj. They have a back patio where people can hang out as well. The one thing I noticed is that the atmosphere didn't seem very friendly. It seemed like everyone there was just there to be with whoever they came with, and not to mingle.
From there we went next door to the Menagerie Nightclub. (Note: this is a gay bar, but there were both gay and straight people there when we went.) When you first walk in you are walking behind a stage that is set up with gold streamers, and when you get to the main bar area there are tables set up for people to sit and I would imagine to watch whatever shows they put on. Then there is a large bar in the middle of the room and at the back is a dance floor with mirrors on the walls, so the bar looks much bigger than it really is. The music here was like what you would hear at an LA club with upbeat dance mixes.
