Editorial Review for Ontourage – by Citysearch Editors

The Scene
The playfully contemporary club's front room features cylindrical white walls and a spiral staircase that whisks plastic-braceleted VIPs up to a private area. An alcove opens into the main room, where blue and pink lights pulse from within front and rear bars and between brushed metal fixtures. Charcoal couches with white plastic-topped tables sit opposite a mirrored dance platform; at back, an elevated bar area has a small lounge with club chairs and beige couches that offer a break from the dance-floor action.

The Draw
Image-conscious area partiers have transformed weekend nights into a kind of sexy high school/college reunion, if one can find room to breathe. DJs spin energetic dance music, trance and pop remixes at high volume, and the dance floor throbs. The crowd pays top dollar for high-end bottle service, vodka and cranberry, and bottles of Amstel.

Insider Tips

Where to Sit

Head to the back and step up to the elevated bar area for a good view of the teeming dance floor.

Parking

Street parking in River North is possible for the patient. Try Grand Avenue and the area near Merchandise Mart, though the latter requires quite a stroll.

Okay seriously to the girl who was 21 how many clubs have you really been too????? GET OVER IT!!! And to the guy who was over charged why did you pay???? why didnt you say something? Cause that is really the price and you were too cheap to tip. If you call Ontourage 312-573-1470 they will put you on the guest list for free admission, hot chicks, strong drinks!!!!

I think Ontourage has the worst EXPENSIVE drinks ever. The bartender was very rude and overcharged customers for her tip. The DJ kept playing the same songs over and over and over again. He needs to invest in a larger variety of hits. The small stage with the stripper pole was a nice touch. It's not a very big club. I've seen a ton of better clubs with waaaay better prices. This was a first and last experience for me. I wouldn't recommend this to my worst enemy.

Pros: Stripper pole

Cons: Cheating bartenders, bad DJ, high prices, watered down drinks
