Spectacular

by centrino0611

TUTS is a great place to hang out. Very nice crowd with great music, drinks and atmosphere. Food is surprisingly good as well. Very pretty crowd and staff. Bunch of different options for mojitos, martinis and other drinks. Definitely try the key lime martini and go for a hookah (we tried different types as we had a few people in our group). The place fills quickly so get there early. Definitely a good spot for a great Saturday night.

Great Music,

by rajivk111

I went there on a Saturday as part of a Bar Crawl that I had organized. Short Version: Beautiful Waitresses, Beautiful and Talented Belly Dancer, Beautiful Girls at the Club, good DJ, Great Drinks, Great Hookah, and reasonable prices. Long Version: Went there as part of a bar crawl I organized. Bouncers were respectful and helpful. The waitress was a bit snooty until she realized we had reservations, then she was sweet and hot to boot. The DJ was pretty good and the Belly Dancer was amazing, she was beautiful and talented but her show only lasted about 20 minutes and that was it. We met other girls that just hang out there that are belly dancers at other clubs and are incredibly hot. The only problem I had was that the service can be a little slow, but it is totally worth it.

  • Pros: Great Drinks, Great Crowd (especially the women), Great Belly Dancer, Good DJ and Reasonable Prices
  • Cons: Slow Service, Can be snooty if you don't have reservation

Great Party place!!

by thegorgeouz

I had my birthday party there 2 days ago on a Saturday night. It was my first time visiting TUTS and it was a lot of fun!!! We started around 9:30pm with about 4 or 5 people for dinner and the food was great!! However keep in mind that this is a Club/Lounge so the seating is not very "dining-friendly", the table is low and small to eat at, and I am guessing the waitress is not trained to serve food, she didn't bring plates or utensils until we asked the 3rd time... but the food is great. More of my friends came later and we had a blast!! the music was good and the crowd was awesome, the belly dancer was hot although I hope there would be more than one. Overall I think it's a great place to throw a party. Be sure to get there early cause it gets very crowded around 12:30 or 1 and they don't let any more people in.

  • Pros: Great Atmosphere, Crowd, Music
  • Cons: Service could be a little better
