Intro: A Night of Music, Cocktails, and Gaslamp Transformation
On Friday, April 4, Kaluú—San Diego’s premier upscale Mexican restaurant in the Gaslamp Quarter—reimagines its sleek space for an electrifying late-night event. Partnering with Happy Hour House, the dining room transforms into a dynamic dance floor, blending the sophistication of a luxury Mexican restaurant with the pulse of underground house music. Doors open at 10 PM—join us as the kitchen closes and the beats take over.

- Full Dining Room Dance Floor: Watch as tables make way for a high-energy dance floor, curated by Happy Hour House’s cutting-edge DJ sets.
- Craft Cocktails Only: Sip Mexican restaurant craft cocktails like the smoky Kaluú Old Fashioned or tropical Hotel Guadalupe—no food service after 10 PM.
