The Lounge on Elm Street
2810 Elm St.
Dallas, TX 75226
What was once the Darkside Lounge is now just the Lounge On Elm Street. Hopefully the simplified name will be enough to keep the joint going. But if that's not enough, the place is nicely remodeled with excellent artwork by Sergio Garcia. The place has a multi-purpose approach. It's got dim, cool, indirect blue lighting and a hot bartender like some kind of ultra-lounge, but the super-cheap canned beers of your favorite dive bar. Just as multifaceted is the music, which ranges from live metal and indie-rock to electronic dance music to themed DJ nights.
