It looks like the Onyx franchise is coming to the St. Louis area. The club will be in Ceentreville, IL which is about a 15 min drive from downtown St. Louis. For those who have an Onyx in their city(Atlanta, Philadelphia, Houston, Charlotte), how are they?
I don't think the Atlanta Onyx is a franchise. It is owned by Galardi South Enterprises, Inc. Their web site is showbars.com. Anyhow it is just a ho hum black club.
Yeah, AFAIK Club Onyx is different from Onyx - they're both black clubs but Onyx is in ATL and Club Onyx is a chain with clubs in Dallas, Houston, Philly, Charlotte (I think the Club Onyx chain is owned by Ricks Corp which owns 40+ clubs nationwide including Tootsies Miami)
The Club Onyxes tend to be large fairly upscale clubs with usually above avg looking ebonies - mileage is usually decent, about the same for mixed clubs in its areas.
I use to hit the one in Dallas in the 2000s when I lived there but I haven't seen a review in a while and another TUSCLer mentioned to me it has goane a bit downhill - I had a good time when I visited back in the day.
Visited the Houston location once - a lot of nice looking chocolate and nice vibe, but that was about 5 years ago.
@Michigan - later fliers show a $10 cover instead. However I think you can make a business case for pricing an urban club really high. With a clientele base that literally throws money into the air why not price things high to weed out the lower spenders.

It's at the same location as all the previous failed clubs. Good luck.
