This place is known to me as Circle Nightclub. Have been here several times and had a great time. There is a concentrated demographic of Koreans and other Asians, but most of these patrons know how to get down. It's a medium sized nightclub, with a fully occupied dance floor, bars and all. Not really a table service type vibe, as everyone is here to dance, and not to be seen. I'm not Korean, and I've had no trouble at all getting inside.
