STUDIO PARIS
Located on Hubbard Street, Studio Paris is located near the center of the lively River North Area. Opened not too long ago, Studio Paris has gained its fame in the Chicago nightlife pretty quickly. Every weekend, there is always a line of fancy dressed ladies and sharply dressed gentlemen outside of the IL Porcellino Restaurant on 59 West Hubbard. Even though the IL Porcellino Italian restaurant is well loved and very popular in the area, most of the cosmopolitan looking people in the line out front are not waiting for a dining table but a spot to enter the famous club upstairs. Using the stairway right inside the restaurant, you can take yourself right up to the music and dancing heaven of Studio Paris.
There is a $20 cover fee for guys when entering and it is normally free for ladies. If you do not want to wait in line, you can make a table reservation beforehand.
Table reservation starts at a pretty high price of $lK to $1,500 for 10 people, including a bottle of Champagne and a bottle of Vodka, not including tax and gratuity fee. Sometimes, when there are special events, customers are allowed only with tickets bought beforehand or on the spot, not with the usual cover fee.
