There were some pretty bad reviews of this place so I wasn't expecting much when my friends decided to celebrate a birthday gathering here. The security outside is super strict and the moment we got in front of the club they were herding us like sheep onto a small grassy patch on the front "lawn". We finally got in and the place is gorgeous! It really has a feeling of an actual house and even the bar looks like a real kitchen! Drinks are around 10$ for a normal cocktail and the bartender made it pretty strong. I had previously read the reviews and noticed people said they were pretty strict about kicking drunk people out. One of the girls from our group had trouble walking and the bouncers escorted her out. But come on, girls in heels all night plus a little bit of alcohol = a bit of a wobble in your step, right? She wasn't throwing up or anything so I guess they're just really strict about that kind of thing. In general I had a pretty good time and I guess the 4 stars are really just for the interior layout of the club. Ps. There's girls dressed up like they're going clubbing on a Saturday night in Hollywood, but there's also girls that are hella dressed down. So I guess there's no need to dress up to the max unless you feel like standing out!

I've eaten here twice now and I am more excited than ever to be having my wedding reception at Temple/Prana! The food is really creative, and the flavors typically work together perfectly. Regardless, it's always been an interesting meal. If you love Indian food and don't mind "fusion" fare, you will be pleased. Even if you typically eschew all Thai/Indian flavors like my parents, you may be surprised at how much you enjoy your meal. Not cheap, and a pretty snazzy place to take a date. The wait staff is competent but not intrusive, just like it should be at a nice place. They make a big deal about being sustainable, which is great if that's really important to you, but not something that influenced me to make my decision. Just a bonus, I suppose.

This place is ok. This is Seattle after all, I don't expect much in the club scene. I like how they have several bars and dance floors - this is important to me cuz I can actually *talk* to people when I'm at one of the bars and just chill there. Other clubs in Seattle have just one big dance floor throbbing with music where you have to scream to talk. There's one dick head bouncer who had picked fights with my group before. HOT TIP: It's free to get in before 10pm. So go there get your hand stamped, and go somewhere else if you want. When you come back go to the side entrance for the re-entry line where the wait if much shorter.
