On top of Jebel Amman, this place is the epitome of cool. The nighttime perspective is of another hill brightly lit and serene. The decor of the restaurant is eclectic and bright. This is the place to relax, listen to music (often by the clientele), smoke argileh, drink a few pitchers, and eat some great food. The staff is friendly, helpful, and completely fluent in English. From other tables a mix of English, Arabic and French can be heard-- often at the same table. It is a place to see and be seen for the youth of Amman. The restaurant, Da Willy, is ontop of a bookshop specializing in English content and Internet Cafe (Books@Cafe). Local luxury items (aromatherapy, gifts) and clothing is also available. Though it can be pretty pricey for the experience, it was well worth it.
Dress Code: No dress code, but be stylish to be noticed. Western dress, with some girls even wearing tank tops!

Blue fig - it is European-stilled club. Both European and modern local music playing. Pretty girls:))
You can also try some nargille club - traditional places serving hubly-bubbly, but no alcohol...pitty...at least they could served beer :)
Try the coctails in the Blue Fig - very tasty!
Dress Code: Put whatever you like.

Let's be honest, there are 3 'real' clubs in Amman for foreigners. Early in the evening head to Abdoun Circle and the Bigfellows Irish Pub. Bad music, expensive (but good) food, and lots of people standing around checking out everybody else.
As the evening wears on, you will eventually migrate to the Old Irish, which is in the basement of the Dove Hotel between Third and Fourth Circles. 'The Old' features more bad music, cheap beer, friendly bartenders, and a dance floor the size of a pocket handkerchief on which 200 people will be dancing. While they dance, they will be ogled by the dozens of single, sleazy men crowding into the back room. In theory, the pub is only open to couples, but these guys generally 'know somebody' or just look less sleazy on the way in.
Dress Code: This is Amman, and this is the expat set -- you can wear whatever you'd wear to a club in NYC. In fact, some people wear less! Just be aware of the fact that you will have to leave eventually, and possibly take a cab or have to walk, so you want to think ahead about appropriate dress.
