Mua Oakland
2442a Webster StDrinks & Nightlife
Fabulously restored 1920's theater with an Arabesque feel. I could stare at the ceiling of this place all night long...hues of blue and purple in a 3-D Moroccan tile configuration. Multiple bars throughout the main area, with great service. Two mysterious and humungous red-eyed statues flank the stage.
