Great birthday party

I planned a 27th birthday party at Ruby lounge for about 70 people on Saturday night and my friends and had an awesome time. Adonis, the bar owner., was super helpful and accomodating, and reserved a back area for my guests. There was plenty of room to move around. Natalia and fellow bartenders made great strong drinks and even offered us a couple free rounds! Overall, the night was a huge success. Adonis even opened up a bottle of champagne that I had received as a gift and gave us chilled champagne glasses! Great, fun and low-key atmosphere too. Highly recommended!
