Umberto’s

Went out at Umberto’s for a birthday last night and had a pretty decent time. Music selection and variety was good, pretty sizable dance floor, and the employees were very courteous for the most part. Mixed drinks were pretty hit or miss and prices are pretty par for the course in the area — $ 6 beers, $ 10 mixers. Oh on top of $ 15 cover. And a $ 3 coat check.
The environment can be a little unsettling at times — there are at least two or three cops in bullet-​proof vests trolling around all the time. If you’re going with your girlfriend, be prepared to stay by her side the entire night because the single male patronage is pretty hormonally aggressive.
Oh and be prepared to see some gang signs.
