An outstanding club experience
My wife and I visited Sonotheque on 9/17/06. This place was recommended to us by Mario of Groove Parlor. This particular evening was special for two reasons, a birthday celebration for myself and a chance for my wife and I to enjoy the music and atmosphere we both love without any rifraff. Sonia, who promoted the evening "Africa Hi-Fi," put together an excellent evening with Ron Trent on the tables and the fascinating African art displays on the big screens. I would highly recommend this club as well as any future events hosted by Sonia especially if she has Ron Trent on the tables. Great job.

Horrible.
If you want to hang out with a bunch of unemployed kids from the suburbs with a lot of money, a grossly inflated sense of self-importance, and a vendetta against everyone because they were unpopular in high school, go to Sonotheque. This is a horrible bar experience, and anyone who doesn't think so is lying to themselves. Whenever I end up here due to the poor judgment of my friends, I have an awful time. I warned you.

get educated
Sonotheque is the place to go if you enjoy contemporary and older grooves. Different evenings feature different themes and I have particularly enjoyed their Africa HiFi nights. My experience of the crowd has always been fine, then again, I'm always with good company so that makes my evening nice. Perhaps what I like best about Sonotheque is its willingness to bring fresh sounds to Chicago. DJs that play broken-beat, boogaloo, funk, samba, and other underappreciated genres of music are in full effect at Sonotheque. Everyone I've invited to check it out has enjoyed the place tremendously. I can only imagine you won't have a good time if you insist on it. Or you are looking for comerical music.

And What Else?
Nothing impressed me about the place. The interior does look like a music lounge/ club etc, but that's just about it. It's simply just another club. It was hard to enjoy the music when all I could hear (or feel) was the drumbeat which makes it impossible to even have a conversation. Of course the crowd consists of diverse race, etc, but almost all of them didn't stay that long. I can only see the club staying in business because it does cater to the type of crowd that lives around the neighborhood. I definitely WOULD NOT make a special trip simply to go there unless I am already about 5 minutes away. Even then, if I were passing by and heading somewhere else, I would easily move on along.Worldwide > United States > Chicago, IL > Restaurants
