by Maricha F. on I'm slightly surprised at all the bad reviews here, because my first time there was last Saturday and I did not experience any of these horrible things... I went with two other girls and a guy. We were well-dressed, but only moderately so, no big deal. The bouncer was actually nice and made a joke about my ID (from AZ) before letting us all in. Some sort of host guy asked if we wanted a table and I said no thanks, so he said that's fine, have a good night, there's the coat check if you want it. We got drinks (the bar was crowded but the bartender noticed us waiting and took our order right away), stood around for a bit before deciding we wanted to check our coats. About the decor...yes it is beach themed, I was told this place was originally a beach-side club and has other locations in famous beach cities, Miami included, but I don't see why that's a problem. Yea, it's kind of cheesy I guess, but it looked alright. There was a big long table in the middle and some girl started dancing by herself on it, which all the boys stared at and all the girls kind of smirked or shrugged their shoulders at, and about a half hour later a bunch of people all got up on the table to dance, me and my friends included. We had two more rounds of drinks, which are of course overpriced, but so are they all in Manhattan. They weren't bad, anyway. Good and strong. The music was good, house and housey remixes of pop songs and stuff. There were a couple guys who harassed us about checking our coats, but it was fine because we were planning on doing it anyway. There was kind of a weird mix of people, but I was kind of absorbed in my group, so I didn't really notice except for a couple too-old-to-be-here guys and a dude with a mullet (after going to clubs in Europe this doesn't phase me anymore). I don't know, maybe it was my lucky night? The general consensus of the people I was with was that it was fine, not super awesome but not terrible either, an we'd be willing to go back. If I go there again and have a bad experience, I'll be sure to update.
by Jen y. on I came here for the grand pre-opening and it was packed! Beautiful people. Champagne popping at every table. This place has a lot of potential for an awesome comeback. As for the decor, I could still see the LAX when I am in this club. The bars and table locations are all pretty much the same aside from some tweaks here and there. Regardless, it's a fun place.
by Willis Steenland on This is a good place for forty year olds who think they're thirty and thirty year olds who think they're twenty; I've been here twice and that was the majority of the crowd both times. Nothing wrong with that, by the way, but there is something wrong with trying to stuff 200 people in what seems like a place with a max. capacity of 70. Nothing special here and teh dancefloor is the size of my kitchen. Also, the tables are on the dancefloor pushed back into the walls and the only thing separating you and the drunk crowds of hot sweaty mess, is a rope. No thanks.
