MOST MISLEADING PLACE I'VE EVER BEEN! ( - blazzinmeeky rates it 2 out of 10) - The three times I called throughout the week, I got inconsistent answers about the time and prices of Salsa classes. The first bartender was offended that I even ask such a dumb question; apparently she never got the message the club… ...read more

	Columbus 72: Not a Good Choice for Happy Hour - On a recent Friday night at 6:30pm we went to Columbus 72 for Happy Hour. We were greeted by a bouncer and cashier at the door who just looked at us ... almost as if we were the ones who should do the talking. After an awkward interaction, we learned there was a $10 cover, and there was a buffet and 2 for 1 drinks for another 30 minutes until 7:00pm, so we went in. After getting patted down at the entrance downstairs, we went in to find a crowd which was 90% Hispanic and a mix of ages from 20s to 60s - with a handful of people dancing to the loud Latino music. The buffet looked so bad that I took a photo and sent it to a friend as a joke. We left after the special, and probably won't return again for happy hour. Columbus 72 probably does much better late night.
