Best dance party to cut loose

Winner: ZuZu

In a town known for working hard, a proper place to cut loose is a civic necessity. Enter Zuzu, a Cambridge restaurant that transforms into a pretension-free boogie zone under the cover of night. Soulelujah, ZuZu’s Saturday night offering, is Greater Boston’s best dance party, period. Specializing in Motown-era funk and soul, it’s hip (but not too hip!) and free of judgement, making it the perfect place to cut a rug after a long workweek. –Perry Eaton
