Leo’s Den

I’m really disappointed about Monday nights, it used to be Showtime doing the karaōke, but now it’s some woman named Lady Red who is all about texting the selections and she would rather be all about when you put it in rather when the next singer is.
I’m pretty upset about this, and it makes anyone texting a song having to wait an hour easy to sing.
She seems pretty sure people will come back but I’m sure I won’t, she makes the singers feel second rate, although the bartender is great and is doing his best to keep everyone happy and the bar is well-​stocked.
All in all a good experience in having a drink, but the karaōke is a mess and makes me not want to come back.
The neighborhood is supposed to be kinda sketchy but I’ve never had a problem with it, but it’s a shame the karaōke has taken such a bad turn.

Pleasantly surprised! Wonderful martini lounge hidden behind the bar!
They have about 200 martinis to choose from. The bartender was friendly as well.
Will definitely be back soon to see Erica!

I must say this place has the best martinis I’ve ever had! I’m not sure what the ingredients were but I enjoyed a «Relax…Its Lavender» martini, and omg it was amazing! I will definitely visit again when I am in Chicago, they make martinis with all types of liquor and having over 150+ to choose from is an experience.

The Long Islands are the bomb and they have a variety of flavors to choose from. They come in a huge, giant mug for only $ 12.00 (?), I think. They have a DJ on some nights and can get crowed on the weekends. I think every Thursday or the first Saturday of the month is Ladies night. It’s worth the visit for the drinks. I plan to visit again.
Re: The Long Islands are a little smaller but are still the bomb. I believe they use to be in 22oz mugs and now are in 16oz mugs. There are still very strong and so worth the money. I like to stop by Leos 1^st before visiting other clubs to get my drink on. Lol…
