Last Night a DJ Saved my Life
When have you ever peeped a fly sister smashing classic records all night long with shine, authority and pure flair? That baddest mamma jamma is Bay Area veteran lady DJ Zita, who brings her unforgettable mix of versatility and femininity to the turntables every time she puts needle to vinyl. And she does spin strictly vinyl. Her sound spans the eras and blends genres of body-rockin' music; she'll seamlessly segue from boombox classic hip hop to mothership trunk funk, spin smooth R&B treats along with timeless soul classics, flip reggae dancehall riddims, throwback to 80s pop freestyle, all the while rocking a gardenia in her hair.

With just the right amount of kitsch, a menu full of nicely-priced comfort food, and a happening club scene to boot, the mystery quickly dissolved. 1751 is aptly named; it’s a social gathering space with vibrant personality, giving it true mass appeal.
