As you may or not night know, I have a love hate
relationship going on with Downtown Baltimore. The combination of tourist,
college kids, limited and over priced parking is just a bit too much for me to
put up with for a night on the town. After much procrastination, I finally bit the bullet so I could find out
what the hub-bub at Mirage Night Club was all about and the venue does not
disappoint. The space provides a nice
break from the typical converted rowhouse club layout you find in Baltimore and
looks like its original use may have been a post office or bank. Graphic wall paper, leather couch seating, and
gorgeous glass chandeliers help balance out the high ceiling and provide a nice
mix of contemporary elegance. The
ceiling gives the space a big open feel and good acoustics for live music. The VIP balcony is a slight upgrade from the
traditional roped off dance floor tables that establishments like to pass off
as VIP. However, I was a little underwhelmed
with the alcohol selection. The club has
no specialty drink list and definitely isn’t a place for my wine connoisseurs
but, the bartenders do a superb job of mixing up anything your little heart
dream of. All in all, the venue lives up
to the hype and is worth the trip downtown.
Parking: Sucks!
Cover: Not sure what it is normally but it was $20 the night
I went
Drinks: 3 stars
Price: $$$ The
martinis are a little pricey ($12) but they’re worth it.
Good for: Dancing, out of towners, freakem girl dress or
