I'm going to give this place a three-star, even though I don't like it very much. Here's why: This is not my type of place. But, from time to time, I have friends celebrating a birthday or bachelorette party, and I'm asked to go. So, here's what you should know: --The line to get in is atrocious. And silly, in my opinion. But -- if you get there around 10 or 1030p, it's really not that bad. We were let right in. --There's a $20 cover. But, if you RSVP on their website, and get there before 11p, you can get in for free. --Drinks are pricey. Miller Light bottle? $5. Vodka tonic? $8. If you don't plan to drink much, bring cash. There's a $20 minimum charge for credit cards. Not hard to do if you want to have a few drinks... --When starting a tab, they also ask to hold onto your driver's license. Personally, I don't like doing this, as I want to have identification on me at all times. The bartender said it's to cover themselves, because many people have fake credit cards, rack up a high bill, then Opera is stuck with the costs. Fair enough. --The DJs are pretty good. While there is plenty of music played that I don't know, nor do I care for, there's always a batch of music that I do know, and don't mind dancing to. Old school stuff, which can be fun. --It gets REALLY crowded. So if you are like me, I get super claustrophobic, and freaked out that people are in my personal space. --The bathroom situation isn't great. I've only found one girl's restroom. So if you think you may have to go, go ahead and get in line. --Prepared to get hit on. Prepare to have guys come up and grind on you from behind when you least expect it. Ick. All in all, I'm surprising myself by giving this place 3 stars, but you know, hey -- I kind of think you know what you are getting yourself into if you come here. Just be prepared.

Before VisionshockSF comes around, Rouge has been "The" spot for Friday night Asian crowd scene. Just dont expect the quality of a Mixed crowd and you won't be disappointed. I still rank it Top Asian Friday Night bar/club over the likes of Boss, NV, and Whisper. $20 is true, quite annoying for most people because even if you do sign up for the guestlist, you'd still be hard pressed to make it on time. Overall I still believe it deserves 4 stars for the "ASIAN" night.
