No bottle service, no state of the art light system, no bells, no whistles. The sound system however, is arguably the best in DC nightlife.

The door leads down a set of stairs, passed a ticketing booth and into U Street Music Hall. The layout is simple, a rectangle and a square are connected at the corners.
Looking down from the DJ booth, you see a bar to your right, a stage at the other end, and to the left of the stage is another bar and hang-out area
Enterimg U-Hall you find yourself in a hang-out area with a bar, passed that is a large rectangular room with a stage on the near side, DJ booth on the far side, bar on the left-hand wall and kitchen between the bar and stage. That’s it! The beauty of U Street Music Hall is its simplicity. It’s about the music, period.
