AURA

This nightclub near Washington Avenue only opens up on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, and the resident DJs play a mix of EDM, house, electro, dance, mash-ups and hip-hop for the young diverse crowds that show up. Besides the dancing, bottle service is big here with people calling in early to reserve tables for the weekend. Aura's dress code forbids T-shirts, hoodies, sneakers and more; check out the club's Web site for the full details. Most of the crowd tends to be fit and attractive; the manager we spoke with says that the patrons range from from twentysomethings up to fortysomethings.
