Editorial Review for The Buzz Club – by Holiday Dmitri
The Scene
Within an unassuming office building facade, the contemporary, casual Buzz has an industrial loft interior of exposed bricks and high wooden beams. The design emphasis is on boogying down. Motley spotlights penetrate the large dance floor, where footloose young men and women show their moves.
The Draw
With three full-sized bars stocked with premium liquor, wine and beer, you'll be sure to find your poison here, but be forewarned: The Buzz bartenders make a stiff drink. Try the house special, the King Bee (Belvedere Vodka, splash of M+R Dry Vermouth, and an olive or twist), or a bartender favorite, an energizing Black Jeans and Raspberry Stoli. Bottle service is available and there's even a specialty champagne bar. A kitchen serves food until the wee hours, including chicken fingers and beef empanadas.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoThe wardrobe style here is relatively relaxed, but classy--men come in slacks and dress shoes, while women opt for form-fitting pants or skirts paired with high heels.
When to GoWednesday night is salsa night with DJ Alberto "Escandalo" Gomez spinning the Latin tunes. Manny Lopez gives dance lessons at 6:30pm.

I threw my birthday party at Buzz and the music was great BUT the bouncers were rude and there was a lot of mis-communication. They told me i would have a table with a bottle of champagne but when i got there, my table was not ready because they "over-booked" parties and we didnt have anywhere to sit..... And then when they sat me and my group of friends at a table, the bouncer told us that we had an hour at the table and that we had to move to another spot because of another party that was coming. FINALLY after all the mis-communication and confusion, they told us to stay at our table and continue our party. We did have a good time, but overall i would not recommend having/hosting a birthday party there..
Pros: The music was great
Cons: the bouncers and guys working at the club were RUDE

Of course, I'm talking about the Wed night, where latinos and a good and balanced mixture of races go after work to have drinks, fun and dance. I love the fact that I can go there as early as 6:30 PM, have some free food, free entrance and free salsa lesson! Then I get the chance to meet all kinds of people, Middle aged professionals, young students, old people that wanna have fun, etc. The dance floor will start getting crowded at around 10:30 PM and from that point on, you get to see some of the best salsa dancers of the city, showing off those latino goddess! But of course, after a bunch of drinks, any woman will start looking good... Am I wrong?! :-)
Pros: Cheap night, good meeting place, good show...
Cons: Ventilation is innadecuate sometimes, no food late at night, dirty dance floor.
