Editorial Review for Lounge OneTwoFive – by Michael Alarcon
In Short
By opening the space up to the sidewalk, this spot seems less like a nightclub beneath a parking garage and more like someone's fancy open living room with mod accoutrements (cushy couches, funky hammock swings and even a waterfall). The dance floor itself is small enough to be deemed intimate, with a silvery DJ booth from which the mix masters spin everything from trancey, mellow electronica to hardcore breakbeats and soulful house tunes.

This place is the worst, if I didnt get in for free i would be p/oed. The sound system is a monster, and the djs are tight and thats saying alot cause I hated most of the music thay played, its very house and techno oriented, and I like both those types of music, but their selections were bad, and they didnt seem to read the crowd. The people there seemed ok with the djs but it was a dead dance floor and it seemed like alot of people were waiting for a good song to dance to but they never found it. I went on a wensday night a the djs were awesome, great selection and very tight mixing. The crowd that goes their is very Jersey musclehead types, not many females and the ones that were there for the most part were too old to be dressing the way they did, belly shirts showing off their guts and bad breast jobs. The drinks were outragously overpriced, 9 bucks for a whiskey and ginger, cmon this is philly, and the dummy serving me couldnt make change for a 50. I will prolly go there again cause its the only afterhours in old city and i like to dance so I would go on a wensday again cause its free so if i've had enough to drink already it a cheap end to a night. The door staff was nice but the bouncers were too "hands on" when trying to get people out at 3:20am. Dont bring your girl if you dont wanna have to deal with armani exchange shirted dudes trying to buy her drinks (which was fine cause I couldnt afford to pay all night) And it was free to be a member so thats cool too. But all in all I wouldnt reccomend this place to people that I liked unless they were going with enough people to make it seem like there isnt any morons there, cause they abound in this place
Pros: Great soundsystem, skilled djs, big dance floor
Cons: dumb staff, gross people, way over priced, too many jersey people,
