DESCRIPTION

A nicely dressed, clean-shaven guy asks a lovely young lady to dance. She doesn't say yes, but rather says, "Okay, I'll try." That's all we ask, ladies. And if salsa dancing is your passion, then the place to be on Thursday nights is Scott Gertner's new place in Houston Pavilions, which has butted up against its bigger neighbor over who has the right to be the big dog.

Thursdays at the old Skybar location on Montrose were an institution, and the city has been missing a party like this since their doors closed two years ago. But now the magic is back and better than ever. DJ David Cruz keeps the Latin beats moving, and a live band (Grupo Kaché on this night, Orquesta Salmerum starting on Thursday, May 24) generates enough power to keep you moving well into the early morning, work on Friday be damned.

The new place is immaculate, like a new white Cadillac with all the features. There are several bars with talented bartenders that keep the drinks flowing. The huge dance floor is not as cozy as at the old location, which gives you an ample platform to showcase the skills you picked up at those expensive dance lessons. Throw in several big-screen TVs, a variety of food and even a bucket of Jello shots, and you may never want to leave. According to the general manager, a rooftop patio will be open soon, just in time for summer.
