Tru Lounge is an upscale nightclub with multiple bar and bottle service areas, great drink specials, and an outdoor section for smoking and lounging. The waitresses and bartenders are fun, attractive, and know how to make strong drinks. Tru Lounge puts an emphasis on VIP treatment, so call ahead to secure reservations and bottle service. The roomy lounge can fit up to 700 people inside and is styled after the ultra lounges of Miami and Vegas. Multi-colored mood lighting adds atmosphere and sexy cocktail waitresses in bustiers are sprinkled in for eye candy.  Special guest DJs will spin Top 40 and house music most nights. There is a good sized section outside for lounging, which is ideal for smokers and those who want a little fresh air. With a full kitchen available until 2am and relatively inexpensive drinks, Tru stands out from the crowd of other Bay area lounge clubs.
