Frommer's Review
Established in 1936, this dance club is where Edith Piaf won the hearts of Parisian music lovers. Today, it's easy to compare La Balajo with New York City's Roseland -- an old-fashioned venue steeped in Big Band nostalgia, which sometimes manages to shake the dust out for special parties and events. Afternoon sessions focus on tangos, paso dobles, and waltzes, and are more staid than their late-night counterparts. Evenings attract a younger crowd (age 20-35-ish), who groove to a mixture, depending on the DJ, of house, garage, techno, and old-fashioned disco. Open Tuesday to Thursday 8pm to 4:30am; Friday and Saturday 10pm to 5:30am; and Sunday 3 to 7pm.
