Best of Boston

1999 Best Club, New Scene

Venu

With city club kids being the jet setters they are, it was only a matter of time before the cross-pollination yielded a scene straight out of South Beach. Now Venu—with its pastel interior and art deco design—could impress Miami club mistress Ingrid Casares herself. It’s certainly making an impression on local clubgoers, who’ve been lining up several nights a week to hear hot local DJs like Richie Rich and Alex spin mad tunes.
