This was my first time ever hearing about the Sports Bar LA/Z Lounge at the Ritz Carlton (1170 22nd Street NW). While the venue might be DC's best kept secret, the ambiance of last night's (3.29.08) party was...mmm..."so so". The crowd was definitely grown but not so sexy. However, the music was good enough to distract me from noticing...kinda.

This "invite only" event was a decent contrast to a typical Saturday night at the more popular venues in the area. It was nice to see people come out to enjoy themselves as opposed to stuntin' and what not.

Dom and Tupac are throwing an RSVP only event at Z Lounge (1170 22nd Street NW) tonight. Don't be thrown off because it's inside the Sports Club LA...it has an ultra chic atmosphere. It's even in the Ritz Carlton complex, if that helps you out a little bit. 

They claim open bar but you really can't trust a Mad Power Unit open bar...it practically doesn't exist. In other words, bring cash. A martini will only set you back $7; a beer starts at $4.
