Editorial Review: (View User Reviews)

Universal in Hillcrest is the latest EnDev nightlife creation bringing a Gaslamp edge to the diverse culture of this unique neighborhood. Previously known for crass club names and dim corridors packed with an eclectic group of partygoers on the hunt for extreme drink specials, Hillcrest is now seen in a new light. The $5 million, 15,000 sq. ft. Universal features four distinct, urban entertainment concepts: the new restaurant Dish @ Universal; The Garden, and the ultra-hip indoor ultra-lounge with a dance floor and a Ciro's Pizzeria. Vibrant hues and artsy displays of elegant design flash across the spacious club. From the multicolored checkered ceiling to the dangling ultra-mod chandeliers, every ounce of lounge space screams high-energy, but the tone never trips on trashy and maintains an upscale vibe with emphatic attention on fun. Hillcrest’s Universal hosts top San Diego DJs such as Erik Diaz and Freddie Fresh and caters non-exclusively to the gay community with weekly and monthly special events such as Gentleman’s Martini Night.

"We believe laughter equals longevity. We believe in happy endings. We believe a dress code breeds creativity. We believe in a more perfect union. We believe in Hillcrest." - Universal


Check out Dish at Universal – the sister restaurant located across the garden patio.

Review Details
Overall Rating:
As a neighbor in the adjacent condos, I was understandably nervous with the Universal invasion. The crowds, complete with no additional parking in the neighborhood, have proved to be a nuisance (at best). Patrons have figured out that buying liquor at Ralph's (next door) is a much cheaper alternative to the overpriced fare at the club. As with all things 'trendy', some of us ar patiently waiting for this storm to blow over...
Conclusion

 We'll all be curious to see how long the club lasts; bon chance, Universal.
