by Jenny K. on I was very hesitant to check out Bar 210/Plush for a friend's bday after reading earlier reviews of the venue. BUT, as is typical of me, I sucked it up and headed on over. The venue takes up a portion of the old Trader Vic's. Definitely an amazing, modern renovation of the space that fits the lifestyle and crowd these days. Arrived on the early side (10 p.m.) with a couple other girlfriends and the door managers were very polite and nice. While waiting for friends to arrive after me, I did notice a lot of good looking, well dressed party goers arriving. Nobody was treated poorly or turned down at the door. Bar 210 is intimately proportioned but a good area for pre-drinks. Plush's side opens up sometime around 11 p.m.-ish, so expect to mingle around for a bit. Service was good, ample sized restrooms, drinks were mixed well and the staff were professional. I was curious about the crowd: overall, good looking, not the bridge and tunnel sorts you find in the typical Hollywood scene, which leads me to say, it's a good vibe. The age varies but whatever the age, everyone knows what type of scene they're getting into and enjoys it for what it's worth. I did see the Canadian guy who was on the most recent episode of the Millionaire Matchmaker here on the night I went. I am definitely not a fan of THAT guy. I would definitely check this venue out again. I will say though, I left on the earlier side (shortly before 1 a.m.) and noticed a huge crowd of people out front waiting to get in. Looked like a typical Vegas mob in front of a club .... but inside the club and bar, it was already filled to capacity. If anything, head over early! And a word of advice to others who have been or have yet to go, get yourself on the guest list (there may be conflicting circumstances that inhibit walk-ins), come with a good attitude, time it right (don't show up late) and dress appropriately. You'll only be treated with the same amount of respect you show to the staff at this place.
by Wilson C. on This place gets one star because we never went inside for me to review it. We came to this place for one of my boy's friend's birthday. We got there around 9 or 10ish. We see a line of course, what good club wouldn't have a line? So we get in line and my friend goes to find out if this is the guestlist line and we find out it is. So we figure it can't be that bad I'm sure we'll get in within an hour. It's another cold SF night and there we are on standing on Howard next to these girls who I know must be freezing because I was and I had sleeves on my skirt and pants that went down to my feet and they did not. We end up waiting for over an hour and move literally 10 feet forward in the line! We must be a good 80 feet away from the front so we figure at this rate we'll get in when the Raiders win another Superbowl (sorry Nick. You don't gotta tell me again. Tuck rule, I know). We decided to wait another half hour or so and if it improves we'll wait it out but half an hour and two feet more in distance, we decide to leave. So this place gets one star for the long wait that you'd have to be crazy to wait in. I hear the place is nice inside. Until I get in, this place gets 1 star and I better hook up with the hottest drunk girl there next time in order for me to rate them better after this experience so I doubt they'll ever get a better rating from me.
