Spent lots of money to be treated poorly!
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

I warn you STAY AWAY from this place unless you like being treated poorly. We went here for my friends 21st b-day. She had talked to Melissa & planned it all. When we got in we saw the area set up for a b-day & were told that wasn't for our group. They said they couldn't reach her and her # was all the sudden disconnected the week of the party so they didn't set up an area for her or have the cake she ordered & now someone else was in her area for their b-day. Her 20 friends who came to the club to celebrate had called her at the same # all that week and got a hold of her just fine. The manager actually told us they don't make mistakes like that (double booking a party) and it was the b-day girls fault she didn't have a spot. Someone made a comment about race in a review below & my friend is the hot blonde that often gets into clubs for free & is the first to dance on the bar and live it up so they have equal discrimination there. We got to sit on the VIP couches but were moved around often when people got there who had reserved a table. Not the way you should be treated when you brought 20 people at $50 a pop. That's $1000! At the end of the night my husband was kicked out of the club because he tripped up the stairs. My husband is the least threatening guy you could imagine and there is no reason why he should have had to leave for that drunk or not. From reading these reviews & seeing what I saw it sounds like they pick people to kick out. As he was outside he told them he was disappointed with how the party happened & he wasn't coming back & the manager said "Can I have that in writing?" How rude and inappropriate! So just to let you know they are perfect like god they are the VIP & you are a nobody to them no matter how much you pay or what the occasion. If you like feeling this way definitely go to this place! The place looks like a 10 when you enter or see it online but the staff makes it a 0 & will run it into the ground.

Pros: beautiful atmosphere

Cons: beyond poor customer service

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

The buzz on this place equals long lines and a frenzied bar. Avoid the headache by booking a table and staying true to your reservation--extra guests and tardiness will slow otherwise expedited admittance.
