Our Story
Chayz Lounge is the brainchild of Creative Consultant, Music Director & former broadcast talent, Chaye Alexander. It began as an Internet Radio station and virtual space to enjoy the best blend of Adult Contemporary music. The station also provided an avenue for recording artists to reach a global audience. Thanks to the millions of loyal listeners, it became one of the top radio stations on the web in its genre. Chaye had more in mind for Chayz Lounge. She envisioned it being a brick & mortar space where adults can experience live music by some of the best talents. The backroom of Nonnah's restaurant in the Vista provided the perfect setting for such a concept.
In June 2017, the Chayz Lounge venue was brought to life. However, Chaye knew from the start that she needed more room and after two years at Nonnah's, Chayz Lounge moved and now occupies the space at 607 Meeting Street in West Columbia's River District. The radio station continues to satisfy music lovers worldwide with its perfect blend of smooth jazz, soul, easy listening grooves under its new name, Chayz Lounge Radio.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
Absolutely loved the experience! The band was awesome and interactive. The food was delicious! (I had seared salmon (cooked to perfection) that came with pita bread and a delicious dipping sauce and a garden salad (large portion) .) The staff were professional and friendly. Everything was great! I will definitely return soon.

Let me start by saying this place was amazing! From the second we walked in the door the owner and staff were so friendly and the atmosphere was just perfect. The wife said the shrimp and grits were best she ever had and the music was out of this world so much talent on that stage. I would recommend this place to anyone seeking a nice night out. Can't wait to book again.

Awesome experience. The entertainment was excellent. The atmosphere was elegant but not pretentious. The staff was friendly. I was impressed that the owner/manager came to the table and made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. I recommend this establishment for grown folks who aren't too old to have fun.
