Denim co-owner Wayne Shulick has been quoted in local media as comparing his new lounge to his upscale clothing store -- Smith Bros Jeans -- meaning: "Not everybody can afford $120 jeans; not everyone can afford bottles of champagne and ounces of caviar. We're not looking for the masses." It's evident from the get-go that his statement translates into an ever-so-chic restaurant/club that caters to a clientele with refined palates and a chichi sense of style. Designer Jeff Low has created a sleek, sophisticated space that allows patrons to indulge in a sense of mystery and perhaps feel a little more important than they really are. The creme de la creme of the Denim clientele can make use of private entrances, tables and nooks. Live music adds to the atmosphere with everything from Latin to '80s to trip-hop. The ambience is simple, understated and elegant.

Never Really a Hot Spot

Overpriced drinks and overall a disappointment. Music pretty good, though - - That is if anyone was ever dancing!

Spit/Spat
By oilcanboyd09 on 03/21/2005
I saw Oprah’s father here. When I approached him, to congratulate him on his daughters’ success, he spat in my face before I was able to speak. My only reconciliation of the episode was the fact that his discharge cost him no less than $15.00. This is a good place to get spitted on. And sight celebrity patriarchs.
