Best of Boston

2003 Best Dance Club

Sophia’s

We like our dance clubs sexy, and nothing’s sexier than beautiful, sweaty couples twisting to Latin-flavored conga beats. Sophia’s, which has that and more, is a sure-fire fun night on the town. Diners clamor for tables to sample tapas and sangria; on the dance floor, after the free beginner salsa and merengue lessons, the Saturday-night crowds burst into full-fledged dance marathons. The multilevel club also offers a choice of music, with live bands playing endless salsa on the first floor and DJs on the second and third floors spinning the hottest Latin hip-hop. For mellower folk, the roof deck provides an incredible—and romantic—view of Boston’s skyline. Looking to meet someone? Come solo and you will.
