Come experierience the amazing sushi and the Brand New Current Lounge, for those who are new to area. Current is the latest incarnation of the space that used to be Dragonfly. Special thanks to Mood for giving us the info. This will be a night to listen to the laid back lounge tunes and sample their amazing sushi and kitchen creations with half price sake bombs. It will take you back to the chill vibe of old Dragonfly that we all loved so much.

To understand the buzz behind this venue, you had to have frequented the former lounge that occupied this address before it was Current. Then you just might understand why, one venue has been so widely anticipated.
Construction shot - Notice the Wally* inspired stairs in the background. Most of the venue draws from the sleek designs of the Wally yachts. These yachts have been my favorite since seeing their designs in the movie The Island, then in person at the Monaco Yacht Show.
This Friday, nightlife promotional veterans JetSet Mafia are on board to host a soft opening for the venue. The promotional lineup hosts a "who -who" list of areas top promoters.
The weekly lineup is as follows Thursdays will be handled by Eric at Elund Events along with Das and Absolute Addiction. On Fridays starting next week, JetSet Mafia will handle Fridays at the venue and Saturdays are going to be handled by DC A-List (Walid Karim and Anoosh Jawanian).
The standard procedure for lounges and clubs opening up recently is table service (bottle service), and Current does not disappoint. With close to thirty tables available for bottle service even surpassing Josephine's table count of 25. For those who love bottle service this venue promises to offer a level of DC bottle service customers come to expect. The table minimums for eight people will be $500, which is in line with most upscale lounges in the area. The main table with amazing view of Conn. Ave, the area which used to house the DJ booth, will be going for $2,000 for twenty people.
