Location: 2811 Ingersoll Ave, Des Moines, IA 50312
Cost: No cover
When: Every Wednesday at 9 PM.
Music: Salsa, cha cha cha
Comments: I visited this bar at 9:30 PM on Wednesday 10/14/2010. There was a live band playing salsa and cha cha cha until 10:30 PM. The dance area is small and allows a few couples to dance at a time. I didn’t stay past 10:45 PM to see if the band would start playing again. From what I can tell, its a good place to go relax and dance a little bit of salsa.
