This is one of the oldest (if not the oldest) gay bars in California. It was a Chinese restaurant in the 1950s and 60s that would close the kitchen and open up the dining room to gay men and lesbians. Nowadays, the egg rolls and mu shu are gone in favor of a neighborhood bar with a friendly, low-key atmosphere, where people come for good conversation and to make a new friend or three. The crowd is a mix of gays and lesbians (although the men sometimes outnumber the women on weekends), comprised of both locals and some college students. Weekends feature a small dance space with hip hop, house and electronica music.
