And the Nominees Are: Vote for Best Nightclub in East County

What do you look for in a good nightclub? Is it the size and/or cost of the drinks? How good is the food? Do you look at the "talent level" of the other propsective men and women?

What about the atmosphere? Is it dark or vibrant? Is there live music playing, or does the joint have a rockin' jukebox? Is it a nice place to lounge with friends, or can you not even hear yourself talk? Are there lots of people dancing?

Nightclubs come in all kinds, and everybody has a specific preference of where and how they go.

And in that vein, we want to know your favorite place to spend an evening. So we ask you: What is your favorite nightclub in East County?

Though Patch readers only told us one of your favorites during the nomination period, you can vote for others by mentioning them in the comments section — to help us determine the local favorite.

The deadline to vote is Friday, Aug. 17. Votes for "other" must be accompanied by a specification in the comments section in order to count. Here are the nominations:
