On weeknights the Comet Club is a quiet neighborhood dive with a rotating cast of regulars. Thursday through Saturday nights, however, the place gets crowded: the line to get in starts getting long around 10 p.m. If it gets really crowded, the bouncers sometime impose a cover charge. Inside the club, the music is Top 40 and the crowd definitely has a Marina vibe. It's a spacious bar, but seating is limited, so be prepared to do some standing. Party-instigating bartenders serve up popular specialty shooters like kamikazes for $5. For the same price, you can get the miraculous chocolate cake shot, which combines vanilla vodka and hazelnut liqueur in a sugar-coated glass. Chase it with lemon and experience a drink that tastes just like a cake.
