I really scored when I randomly strolled in to Oz on a fabulous Saturday night!! I was in absolute Heaven when the first thing that caught my attention were the beautiful boys that gracefully strutted their stuff on top of the bar!!! Yes! This place is for people like me( A 50 year-old straight lady)! You will never be able to see more beautiful men than you do at Oz! And the best part about it is you never have to worry about unwarranted advances like you do in the straight clubs! Plenty of straight folks party here as well! But none of them will be a stunning as the precious gay men! We danced to the great club house music until the wee hours of the morning! The experience was well worth my hang-over the next morning!

This is the kind of place Eddie and Pats WISH they could get into! (as if we'd leave them at the door?!) Strong DRINKS, BEATS, and MEN! One of the must stops on my nola trips! the party usually starts round 12 and REALLY gets kicken by 2! Love the theme nights and special events. I've NEVER encountered sour grapes there, everyone, from the bar tender, to the straight girls, to the security are tru southern gentile!

Pros: BOOZE, MEN,, MUSIC, pretty lights

We love this place we are straight woman that go to OZ everytime we come to NOLA. We are always treated like we are there every night. Everybody is friendly, the music and lights are always fun, the shows are always a blast, even thought the Drag Queens always look better than we do!!! Just a fun party bar.

Pros: great music, strong drinks, friendly folks

Oz is what gay bars are all about. dance music, great drinks, and beautiful people. there is a great contrast between the first and second floor bars, so you won't be bored at all, anytime.

Pros: Great music, good drinks

Even a nice looking, gay white male as myself can think that this "Queer as Folk" version of a bar is too much! The music is terrible and it caters to the pretty boys who flounce around unmercifully! Go across the street to the other bar (who's name escapes me) if you want to hang out with some REAL men and hear some decent music! One word to describe Oz? EWWWWWWW!!!!!

Pros: attitude, pretty boy heaven, sucky music

Cons: all, of the, above

Oz is by far my favorite place to go in New Orleans. Everyone knows that if they want to find me on a Saturday night, Oz is where to look. It's like my second home. The staff is incredible and most are some of my best friends. And if you're looking for some hot men, it's definitely the place to go...from dancers to patrons to bartenders to security, they are by far the most gorgeous around...

Pros: Great DJs, Excellent service, Gorgeous men

Cons: Crowded at times, No parking

Editor's Review

A hotbed of gay nightlife, this high-energy, consistently packed dance club also attracts its fair share of straights.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

Look Good

Oz's dress code is pretty casual: Just dress to boogie. However, there are frequent theme nights, so you may want to call ahead if you don't want to feel left out.
