Went there on Saturday for their valentine’s day Latin dance night. The music and atmosphere were great. Didn’t leave until they closed.

I love this place. I've been there a million times for over 20 years and I follow them through their many locations that they changed. There's no food right now. They are doing parties, but it's so much fun to go there that service the atmosphere. It's incredible and a lot of fun.

I would skip this place if you want a great club experience. They force you to buy a $10 voucher for a drink before entering (which is illegal to not disclose prior to finalizing the sale of the entrance ticket online). Not only that - we had to wait a whole 2 hours to get in. There was a lot of underage drinking, and the DJ was horrible. No transition at all. He just skips to the next song 15 seconds after the beat drops. It's like he's just playing his spotify recommended playlist to us because they were all the same genre and beat. Everyone was stiff like a board. Barely anyone was dancing. The place was cramped as well, which didn't help the fact that there were people spilling drinks all over the floor. Do not come here unless you want to experience all of the above.

Recently my friend and I came here on a Thursday night and let me tell you: IT WAS ONE OF THE WORST EXPERIENCES FOR CLUBBING EVER! 💀 Here’s why: When we got in line for the club we waited for almost an hour in the cold and was expecting to get in for free because we RSVP the tickets but there were 2 guys saying we had to pay $20 each because we didn’t “repost” their flyer on our Instagram stories….thats some MAJOR BS….to make matters worse is that there was this elderly woman requesting to charge us another $20 for MANDATORY drink tickets for me and my friend to get in….like wtffff why do we need to pay $40 to get in now when the club advertised it would be free entry?!?! What’s even MORE crazy is that this was a 18+ event and this woman was forcing minors to buy their drink tickets and use these tickets to drink in the club. My friend and I came here before last year for a reggaeton party and had no issues! So I’m was very disappointed in the money hungry attitude these bouncers had! Y’all should be ashamed of yourselves for tricking people into paying for the club when y’all advertised it for free! When we got into the club, my friend and I were extremely disappointed of the lack of vibes because every person in the club was either sitting down or standing and most people weren’t dancing! To make matters worse, the bartender wanted to charge another $10 per drink on top of the drink ticket for a tequila and soda mixed drink….we ended up getting coronas and suffered the night knowing that we probably won’t come back here again! Also the club advertised there were 2 floors, but it was just one floor with people sitting in front of some stripper poles lol Overall, if you are here for clubbing, please do yourself a favor and DO NOT come here! Save your time and money and THANK ME (by hearting this post) for not coming here lol

We bought tickets and before entering we had to pay $10 more. We had to line up for an hour and when we finally made it, the place was extra crowded the music was just electronic when the flyers said “perreo latino” and most of the time was electronic. The drinks were expensive and def we definitely didn't have fun at all! The food trucker outside had better music than the club.
