    This was our first time going to this nightclub, we checked the dress code and it stated to dress to impress but when we arrived we saw people with hats, regular T-shirts and even shorts. The website also stated 5 floors of music and dancing but it doesn't say that only the tiny first floor is open until midnight, that's when they open the other floors. The only positive was how friendly our bartender was but unfortunately the drinks were not great, they were watered down and at almost $20 per drink that shouldn't be the case. Overall, very disappointing., My fiancé and I, along with our friends, decided to check out a popular nightclub in Tampa that our friends had previously visited and highly recommended. Unfortunately, our first experience was far from enjoyable and left us overcharged, injured, and underwhelmed. Our friends had previously paid a fair price ($500) at this club for two bottles of alcohol and a VIP section, so we aimed to get the same deal. However, the managers were inconsistent with their pricing, demanding $500 more than what our friends had paid just a month prior. Despite our attempts to understand the price hike, we received no good explanation and they were firm on a price of $1000 for the same package. While waiting for a price settlement I watched the white guy with cross tattoos on his neck allow 2 underage girls inside free of charge. Not only is that a liability but that’s bad business especially when you have a group of people trying to spend money and have fun. We reluctantly settled for a VIP section with a single bottle at $350, only to be moved to a different section after an hour. The section they moved us to was terrible and disappointing—a single couch and a small coffee table, which was inadequate for our group of seven. To make matters worse, people from the crowd repeatedly knocked everything off our table, and on the third occasion, a fight started after someone was pushed onto our table, AGAIN! Security was inattentive and unhelpful, failing to effectively keep those people out of our section, resulting in my ankle getting injured when someone stepped on me with their heel. As a bartender at a club in downtown Orlando and Miami, I found this experience entirely unacceptable. The excessive pricing, lack of space, poor security, and constant disruptions made it a thoroughly unenjoyable night. I would not recommend this nightclub to anyone looking for a good time., I came to this club because I was showing my colleague from Costa Rica around and he wanted to dance. My closest friend raves about this being one of the best dancing spots in Tampa. I was severely underwhelmed. To start, we were told the cover was $20 by the guy that IDed us to only find out at the register it was $25. When I told them what we were told outside the cashier, security behind us, and security at the door all were unapologetic and rude. We unhappily paid because I wanted my friend to have a fun night out. The levels were cool and the music was pretty good, appeared like each level was a different genre, but there were minimal people dancing. LOTS of weed and cigarettes were being smoked on the rooftop so I could barely breathe, but that’s where the most people were. We went to each level and settled on the bottom floor but they closed at 2:40 and started making us leave when the club is supposed to close at 3. We essentially paid $50 for an hour of music. Definitely not worth it. My first and last time visiting their establishment. So sad since I had heard so many good things about this place., Very fun. The bartenders were very nice and the place is clean. The upper floors don’t open till almost midnight, just fyi for new people. Parking is a hassle, not the clubs fault. Definitely take a ride share service., Honestly I've gone to plenty of clubs and this place isn't it. Drinks are over priced and music is alright. The one thing that really tanked this place was that they tried to scam the guys over the women. We asked if we could leave the club for a few minutes and return. The staff said that it'll be alright as long as we have the bands. We returned the women went in free while they tried to charge the guys a second time despite telling us we could return and pretended like they didn't know us. So overall not a great place. I recommend going to a different club.
