African American Club - Mt Vernon

People know me as Ressie T. at the AAC, which was the perfect spot for adults to gather and enjoy some delicious food! The DJs were top-notch and created an amazing atmosphere for dancing, birthdays, anniversaries, and more. We always had a fantastic time together without any worries. It was a safe environment, and if anything ever went wrong, Mr. Bobby Johnson was quick to take care of it. I miss it dearly! My sons surprised me with a memorable 50th birthday party there, and being with my friends made it even more special. Thank you, Bobby, for the wonderful memories—I’ll treasure them for a lifetime!

I've always loved the AAC; I was there when it first opened. Since I moved, I haven't been able to visit for a while. Bobby has created a club where I feel safe—there's no fighting, drugs are not allowed, and only mature adults are present. So whenever I'm in town, I make an effort to stop by to see both old and new faces.

Before your visit, please note that you should be over 50 and a member of a church or associated with a club member. Additionally, it’s important to look appropriately your age without standing out too much. Compliance with all rules and regulations is essential; failure to adhere may result in disappointment from Bobby, who takes matters seriously.

I really liked this place. It definitely infused the Senegalese culture into the experience in terms of the background music, the art on the wall and other decor, the rugged tables and seats. Before entering, I had made reservations so thought it would be a more formal restaurant, but I was totally wrong, haha. It was divey and very casual--and I loved it.

Don't come here enough but Wednesday night salsa dancing here is the epitome of salsa dancing. Hot, sweaty, compact, and all about the vibes. No dancing robots nor stiff dance partners.
