Went here back in 2006 for a WMC sponsored party.  It was a drum and bass and jungle type of party that night.  Usually I could hang with that type of music but the crowd that night really didn't do it for us.  But probably not the venues fault.  Might be back next time if we knew more about which promoter is throwing it.  But yes, certainly not the venues fault that we didn't like it....

This place has really good vibez. My boyfriend and I love roots reggae and culture, and we had a great time here. Our first visit was on a Saturday night. The crowd was really thick, laid-back, and friendly. The live band had us bobbing our heads the whole set--sampling favorites from The Fugees and Bob. The waitress was attentive. We sat down for no longer than a minute or so, when the waitress took our drink orders, and she checked on us frequently.
               On our Sunday visit, there was live music on the first floor and DJ's upstairs. The second floor has a comfy loungier feel to it with its old school red lighting and tall-back casual seating. It definitely DOES NOT have that too-cool-for-school vibe, like a lot of the surrounding venues. Come dressed night-casual or in club gear or in your freakin' 80's prom dress. Nobody seems to really care. Just enjoy the music! The DJ's were on point-- spinnin' lots of familiar oldies-but-goodies lovers' rock and pure culture.  If you're a fan of Sizzla, Fantan Mojah, Jah Cure, Richie Spice, and Gyptian, to name a few, you'd probably love the tunez they were spinning. My boyfriend and I, along with the whole second floor, were singing the whole night. The intimate ambience and good music made for a romantic night out for reggae-lovers visiting Miami.
    Ok- a couple random fun facts: 1. They have free mix cd's, so if you're curious, get one from the DJ's. It's basically advertisement for the club sprinkled with reggae classics. They also had some mixes for sale. I'm definitely going to buy one of those next time.  I'm sure those are seamless tunes I was hoping to get in the free CD. 2: They seem to look the other way on cigarette smoking-- on the second floor anyway. I didn't notice cigarette smoke on the first floor.

Jammin' on Washington. Small place with intimate atmosphere. Upstairs is more spacious, with a (small) pool table and space for sit down and relax. I'll be back.
