The
Atmosphere:
Since 1985 DNA had been a SoMA institution--a dive where you
could catch a band or have a beer. When the doors closed in
1998, clubgoers paid keen attention, wondering at the fate
of their beloved nightspot. No fear: the new Lounge is
quality all the way. You'll find a multimedia playground
outfitted with a booming sound system, video screens and
Internet kiosks.
The Draw:
The downstairs is basically a wall-to-wall dance floor
augmented by a stage for live acts. Upstairs, partygoers can
hang out on the reinforced-steel balconies, watching the
hedonism below or taking a breather on the space-age leather
couches. There's also a more intimate, candle-lit lounge in
the back. All this adds up to a club that walks the line
between edgy and subtle--without trying too hard, the DNA
Lounge has become one of the classiest nightspots this city
has to offer.
