In Short – Batik tapestries, bright paintings and Christmas-style lights line the walls of this small, hybrid nightclub-restaurant. A DJ spins lively grooves nightly and things can get extra tight on the tiny dance-floor--even once the handful of dining tables are cleared. Chalkboards behind the bar list selections from three drink menus and it's common for the staff to be dancing almost as hard as the fun-loving patrons.

very disappointed
by anarojas522
okay so we were very excited to come here because of all the great things we read and heard about this place we even planned ahead..so i was very very disappointed as soon as we walked in. we were only there like 5 min and could not stand the smell of the place, there was no were comfortable to sit and it was so small..i cannot believe that there is a 5 dollar charge for a place like this ive been to better places with no charge. we immediately left the place and got a refund.
- Pros: good location

Rip off
by mr1234
Last Saturday I went out with a group of girls for a Bachelorette Party. After dinner we stopped by Little Baobab for some dancing after hearing how much fun it was there. There were 7 of us total. At the door we were told there was a $5 per person cover charge. After a little haggling with the doorman, he let the Bachelorette in for free and charged us $25 for the remaining 6 of us (a big savings of $5). After we got in we noticed that the drink list taped to the bar stated that ladies got in free before 10:30 on Friday and Saturday nights. After looking at my watch, I noticed that it was only 10:15. I was a little irritated that we had just paid $25 to get into a bar that was no bigger that my garage. When we asked the doorman that had taken our money about it, he told us that "tonight was special". He couldn't tell us what was special about that night nor was it a holiday. On top of that, the beer that I ordered had some type of goey stuff on the bottom of the bottle. After wiping it off with a napkin, I smelled by hand (which was a big mistake) and it smelled like it had been sitting in something nasty for quite some time. So needless to say, I left there feeling taken advantage of, dissappointed and disgusted.
- Pros: Something different
- Cons: crowded, not worth paying to get in

Cool music
by d33ds23
It was really fun, they had great music and a really chill vibe. it wasn't too crowded. The drinks were a little expensive but it's to be expected.
