According to Google, it was the Loft. All I remember is that it had the coat check, DJ, dancing, and Bottle service you'd expect to actually see. Only time I've ever seen anything resembling that kind of set up in Providence, but it looks like there was some kind of issue with the city and they shut it down (only time I ever hear clubs mentioned here is when the city is trying to pull a license).

I think that the city probably finds the lack of clubs a feature and not a bug. There are rarely more than a handful of bars which close late and are located near each other and even rarer that those bars all offer dancing. My hometown (different state) had a club district exclusively made of bars and it was always a huge mess to dump 100s of drunk people out on the same street at 2am.

Give "Flames" a try. Pretty good Caribbean/West Indi place near RI hospital.

The Guyanese roti at Pan a Day is closest to authentic TnT roti I've ever found in New England. Guyana is technically South America but culturally they're more Caribbean than Latin American. Camilla cooks all the good stuff, roti is on Tues/Thurs I think but they've always got good curry, jerk chicken, oxtail etc. The Large plate is like 20 bucks but she loads those plates up. You can feed 3 ppl with a large if you get some sides like Beef Patty or empanadas. Check it out you won't be disappointed!
