by stacey o. on These types of places aren't really my thing, but I really had a good time. There was a nice photography show going on the night i went...so look out for other cool events here...and always get on the list to avoid the expensive cover of $20! They had really good male & female dancers (not just i'm gonna shake my booty and dance dirty all night) on stage who did a whole performance which was actually pretty cool. Expensive drinks, but great service. There are some bomb ass tacos inside for free (just tip the taco makers)...soooo good! oh and the layout & decor of this place is very nicely designed with a beautiful outdoor area. great lighting too! The crowd was only sprinkled with douchebags...really quite a good turn out for a hollywoody venue! if you like big bougie clubs you'll probably really like this place cause even i liked it. Just get on the list to avoid cover!
by Victorina Wryals on I went to Pure on a Saturday night to celebrate my birthday. They get one star for supplying bottle of "champagne" to parties who set up a guestlist in advance. It was actually Cristalino, a cheap sparkling wine made in the champagne fashion, but it was nice enough... very tasty. I'll give them another half-star each for nice-enough bathrooms and free parking. Beyond that, the place was very disappointing. The staff was nice, overall, but nobody seemed to know what was going on. Their VIP section was just a raised platform with tables. If I had $300 to drop on a VIP table I would expect it to be in an area at least somewhat shielded from the noise of the club; a place to retreat to from the dance floor and have a drink and chat with friends. The noise of this club was, in itself, another problem. Of course it's a dance club and loud music is part of the experience, but this was so loud my friends and I were screaming into each other's ears and still couldn't understand most of what was being said. This also made ordering drinks a problem. One of the bartenders got an attitude with us, but I imagine he was just frustrated working at a place where people had to literally scream at him in an attempt to have their drink order understood. I know I'd get pretty pissy by the end of the night if I worked there! There were absolutely no bar stools and the only seating was in the form of two loveseats at the edge of the dance floor, which this one weird group of kids monopolized the entire night. I guess if you want to rest your feet for even a moment you have to plunk down a large chunk of change for a VIP booth. The DJ was playing good music... but it wasn't music most people would dance to. Unless perhaps I'm the only freak in the world who doesn't consider Machinehead dance music. My friends said that very early in the night before it got crowded they were playing dance music... house, trance, etc... so I have to wonder why that changed. All in all, I had high hopes for this place but it just fell flat. The location was good for me, being out of Midtown and only a couple of minutes from my friends' house. But if you want to dance and like that Midtown feel, do yourself a favor and just go to Midtown. This place charges the same for cover, drinks, and VIP tables as Opera, but fails to deliver anywhere near the experience. This was like Midtown's ghetto little sister. There are plenty of bars all around the perimeter that have less attitude, far more fun, and charge a fraction of the price... and that's where you'll find me dancing on weekend nights that I don't feel like driving into town... certainly not at Pure!
