Saturday Night at PM Lounge
PM LOUNGE, a new hotspot below The Joule made famous by the Adam Jones incident; was an interesting debacle last night.
Saturday nights in Dallas typically are date nights, I also like to call it amateur night. Word was that PM draws an older crowd from the clientele of Medici and Sense; the private club that closed from entrepreneur Tristian Simon. This could be true as I think the money crowd from those clubs are looking for a new upscale lounge. Well on saturday night, that was definitely not the case. Dont get me wrong, you could see a few upscale gentlemen in the place but majority of the crowd was late twenty somethings, and early thirties. The door is handled by a fabulous hostess named Sarah. and it does not matter how good you look, she is very serious about her job, if you are not part of the A-list crowd you dont get in immediately. The line starts to build around 11 and never really dies down. The scene is strong. Main street becomes a drag strip of people driving back and forth. Because of this, valet is horrible. It is just like any high end place, only because of the drag issue, it takes some time to get your car. But if you are in a hot car, andeasily remembered you tend to get in and out pretty quick. I gave my valet stub at the same time with another patron and my car was there easily within a couple of minutes, the other patrons car took 40 minutes. I know this because a friend of mine was riding in that car and rode him with me. The inside of the place is sweet. not very large at all, so you have to be a table buyer or you are stuck trying to work your way through the crowd. there are two bars, one half circle in the front and one long one in the back, but unfortunately that one was not available due to Jerry Stackhouse having a VIP party in the back. Once the players started arriving, that really made the valet ridiculous. All those people waiting to leave had to wait even longer as valets were taking cars of those players arriving. Is it the spot to be? I think so on any other night during the week.
