Citysearch Editorial Profile -- By Manny Theiner
"This hard-rocking venue with a cave-dweller interior mixes great music with stellar drinks.
Editorial Rating: Recommended
The Scene:
The booths and the cozy nooks carved out of molten lava speckled with bits of shiny coral and junk glass may suggest Bedrock more than bohemian. But the eclectic stylings are meant to reflect the artsy South Side neighborhood in which Lava Lounge resides. Many of the denizens who flock here nightly work in the nearby galleries, boutiques and studios.
The Draw:
A wide range of entertainment fills up this lounge's dark, crowded back room, including THE PITTSBURGH SPELLING BEE on Mondays, TACOS on Tuesdays, Dj Ian with Mixed up on Wednesday, LIVE international bands Thursdays, 80s Night on Friday, DJhatesyou and his hip hop records alternating Saturdays with POP ROCKS! starring Dj Finn and Glen Electrik!!,KARAOKE SUNDAYS and Friday during happy hours! Whatever the entertainment, all of the mixed drinks are strong--especially the martinis and bourbon-based cocktails. "
