Voyeur

Gaslamp Quarter, San DiegoClosed

A goth-tinged Gaslamp Quarter nightclub that also ran a tapas-style food menu; Roger's 3-star visit found it just okay.

Closed

Voyeur (755 5th Ave, Gaslamp Quarter) is permanently closed; its Yelp listing is marked CLOSED under Dance Clubs. It was primarily a nightclub but did run a genuine tapas-style food program (per 2010 UCSD Guardian coverage), which is why it's included as a food/drink venue.

Roger gave this Gaslamp whiskey bar and restaurant 4 stars, calling it simply 'Great' — a solid downtown whiskey stop.
