My girlfriend took me here about a week ago. It's probably the best club I've been to. Best music out of any Orlando club. It truly is one of a kind in this city.

I-Bar is one of the better bars downtown. Most of them are so generic. I-Bar's eclectic mix of music is refreshing. Alot of it strays away from mainstream. The atmosphere is more chill and...
