Cellar   

If you want to check out one of the the cooler dance music spots in the newly revitalized Tenderloin, take a trip to the corner of Sutter and Taylor to the Cellar. Though apple martinis are the house specialty, most music listeners and dancers are generally holding bottles of beer while checking out DJs. Over the course of the week, patrons can hear everything from hip-hop and '80s hits at Super Fluff Skirt (on Fridays) to drum 'n' bass at Compression (on Sundays). There's a red velvet pool table in its own little alcove (though there's not a lot of room to swing a cue) and a side room for a tiny bit of intimacy during the week. The vibe at the Cellar is young, loud, fun and well worth checking out.
