I used to go to Onset almost every Saturday night. Onset is one of my favorite weekly's in Seattle, I've been going there for years, almost as long as it's been running. Sorry to say I can no longer support Onset because I've been 86'd from the bar. Here's the story: One Saturday night, I was there with friends, buying drinks, dancing and having a great time. I went to the downstairs bar with my friend to get another round of drinks, and while I was in line waiting to order, I asked the downstairs bartender what kind of drink he was serving to another girl. It was a blue drink and I didn't think it was an inappropriate question to ask a bartender. He said, and I quote, "It's called SHUT UP you annoying customer". Flabbergasted, me and my friend stood there, and couldn't believe what we had heard. I went upstairs to let the manager know what the downstairs bartender had said, and the manager appeared very understanding, apologized and gave me a free drink. I've spent a lot of money over the years at this bar and as a paying customer and a human being I expect to be treated with respect. I guess this bartender had something against me that I wasn't aware of. After I talked to the manager, I was back downstairs sitting on one of the couches, and the downstairs bartender walked by me and said "Oh so you had to go and narc on me, DON'T EVER COME BACK TO MY BAR AGAIN B*TCH". This time, appalled, I went back upstairs to talk to the manager. But, unfortunately the manager had left for the night, so one of the bartender's gave me the manager's card. The downstairs bartender, was standing there, and started talking sh*t. While I was trying to ask him what I had done that upset him, my boyfriend came up behind me and started defending me. This is when it got even more out of hand. One of the bartenders jumped over the counter and knocked us both to the ground. It was crowded and I had to reach up to a stranger to help me up. They then escorted both of us out of the bar. We tried to go back in there a few weeks later, and they recognized us and said we were 86'd and to never come back. This is a super big bummer because I love Onset. I'm a DJ and a huge supporter of the D&B/Dubstep scene here in Seattle, and I'm really sad I can't go back there, AND I don't even know what I did to initially offend this bartender. One day if I can get back to Onset I will delete this crappy review but for now I'm giving the lowest rating possible. Beware of the bartenders. You better smile pretty or you might get axed out.

This is the best place in Atlanta. I absolutely hate strip clubs. HATE them, but this place rocks. I'm definitely taking my mom here when she comes to visit me in Atlanta.

First the positive, the crowd here is good looking and more mature than you will find in other places in Boston. I used to really love Rumor, they still have the best Tuesday night in town but forget about it if you try and go around 11 on a weekend you're almost guaranteed to be in line for an hour Came here on a Saturday night, their website says they open at 10:15 but the door guys said they don't open till 11. They said to get back there by 11 if we didn't want a hassle getting in. Guess what, it was still a hassle. The music here is generally great, however if you don't come early or buy a table it isn't worth the wait in my opinion. If you want to check this place out go on a Tuesday night.
