To our way of thinking, this is exactly what a Las Vegas club should be -- because all the other hot nightclubs in town look exactly like a hot nightclub in any old town, and so we always want Vegas places to be Vegas -- over the top and just a little bit wrong. So this clash of Anne Rice and Cher Gothic-themed wacky decadence, with fabrics on top of wood on top of mirrors, not to mention the sort of layout that allows for intimate corners and voyeuristic balcony viewing of the dance floor, is just the sort of overly rich dessert of a place we crave. So do many others; it's one of the hottest spots in town, and the wait in line is so long you might well polish off a Rice novel while standing in it. Well, you gotta pass the time somehow. Expect a hefty cover charge, too. Open Friday through Sunday 10pm to 4:30am.
