I walked in on a Sunday night, heard Reggaeton playing and almost walked back out. Glad I didn’t. Apparently lately I have been feeling to bougie and forgot where I came from. The young girl who used to love Reggaeton and the latin night life. I had a blast here which is surprising. Not saying this is my new spot or anything. Not saying I’ll be back next weekend and the next BUT I may make a stop here a few times a year when the Latina in me wants to come out and be wreck-less. Sunday is Latin night and the only night i’ve been here. It’s a Spanish crowd and can be a bit ghetto but I surprisingly saw no fights, no drama and everybody was acting very cool and just having a good time.

This place is stupid and shady as hell. Everybody who works there is so unnecessarily pretentious and such an asshole. Well the bouncers and bartenders anyway; I didn’t interact with the female servers at all, maybe they were nice. The place is a total rip off. The drinks were like water, and this was early in the night, way before it was busy and before anybody might be too drunk to notice. The female servers wear these tiny skirts and garters, which does not translate as classy at all in that environment. We noticed several times where the manager or owner slapped the waitress’s ass — gross and creepy and so unprofessional. There were creepy guys who were clearly wasted and harassing us to dance, getting way too up in our space and touching us. The bouncers were close by and I know they witnessed this several times but did nothing. Seriously this place is such a joke. I guess they want to be perceived as high end but the place is trashy as hell.

I have been here in the past and always had a great time. Last Saturday I went there after leaving 858, which closes around 230. I was with a big ground since we were out celebrating my birthday, needless the day the door guy ruined that. A friend of mine was on the opposite side of the«almighty rope» he called my group over to him to go in. So I went under the rope, I didn’t know that was a crime!!! The door guy took that little violation to other leave, and I was denied entry!!! I never new the rope was that serious. He continued to tell me I wasn’t going to be allowed in, which I couldn’t believe it was because I went under the rope. He continued to be rude… so I finally got fed up! I got rude back, and of course my group joined in. We all ended leaving after a additional incident with valet who didn’t want to refund the money spent to park the cars for the whole 20 minutes we were outside and denied entry! If you want to go and spend money and get treated like 2nd class patron… go here Otherwise go somewhere else

So I came here with a few friends to party tonight and we were refused entry. The bouncer told us that when management saw us approaching, he told them not to let us in. Apparently it’s not«black night». While we were denied entry, 15 white people walked right in. Do not spend your money here. I’m in disbelief that this happened and I am very disappointed. Racism isn’t concealed at all anymore and sadly this nightclub’s staff thinks that this is ok.

So disappointed in this establishment. After spending so much money for a table, I decided to keep the night going by buying another bottle for my friends. Not only did the waitress not honor the cost negotiated at the door, SHEFRAUDULENTLYWROTEINADDITIONALTIP on top of what was already added as a standard. :( So sad that a great night and seemingly classy place would end up being just another shady spot looking for drunk suckers(like myself) to prey on and steal hard earned money from. I warn all patrons not to have too much fun here if not just avoid it altogether. the servers will take advantage of you after you’re nice and liquored up. I so wanted to love this place. Seriously feel so sad.

I liked this place, the dj was good and the vip area was comfortable and well served(of course) however when I left vip area to get soda because I don’t drink, the female bartenders charged me 11 bucks. Seriously cash-crazed women in general(they were throwing themselves at exec who booked our vip area in the first place-not that he seemed to mind), however, respect the non-drinkers: we tip well. Not sure I would go back because of this. Should add that the male bartenders honored designated driver code, though.

Had the best time at this club! The service was outstanding and the music and lights are amazing! Couldn’t have asked for a better night! Brett and Joe took great care of us! Will come back soon and highly recommend

I left my credit card at this nightclub. Come to find out the bartender charged 800 dollars to account. Will be challenging this and pursuing legal action if necessary. FYI it was the Argentinian bartender.

Well, it’s not that bad. The area is really really small, which was disappointing, but it was pretty crowded on a Friday night. Music was kinda Ok, but the drinks were pretty good. Tad bit expensive for the place. But, the crowd was good.

This place was alright. People didn’t start arriving until 12 – 12:30am so the place was pretty empty when we arrived at 11:30pm. We did not have a table and the bouncers were very strict about not sitting anywhere close to them, even while the bar was completely empty. Drinks were pretty expensive though the bar staff was nice. The music was mostly EDM upstairs and downstairs was more hip hop/rap, though there was absolutely nobody downstairs. Overall we ended up having a good time but it was not the best club by any stretch of the imagination.

My phone was left at the club. I’m positive some bouncer found it and kept it because there are more bouncers there than patrons. The worst part is that I have emailed them and called them and they have not responded. What is the point of having a phone number if you aren’t going to answer it. I came to the club because I was promised complimentary bottle service and shockingly I didn’t get it. On another occasion I was promised the Stanley Cup and sure enough it didn’t show either. They keep telling people things they want to hear in order to get them to the club. I’m out $ 930 on that phone and have yet to get what is offered by the club.

I came here Friday night with 6 others to celebrate my brother’s birthday. The music was OK, the place seemed small and the crowd was a little older… which was ok, everyone deserves to have a little fun! What was NOTOKWASTHEBAR!!! BEWARE! They are filling their top shelf liquor bottles with cheap stuff! It’s a total rip off and they’re a COMPLETEFRAUD!!! I had one drink(which tasted a little off) and had a hangover the next morning! The biggest headache ever from their cheap knock-off liquor! My husband had«Crown Royal» and actually returned it because it tasted horrible! He told the bartender he was returning his drink(wasn’t asking for money back… just letting it be known) because it wasn’t what he asked for. The bartender shows him the bottle as if to say, «Look it is Crown». She tasted it herself and cringed at the first taste! She tried a total of 3 bottles and said, «You’re right! It’s not Crown in these bottles!» She embarrassingly apologized and offered him a Corona. REALLY!!! I would NEVERCOMEHEREAGAINNORWOULD I RECOMMENDTHISPLACE!!! ***BTW, the ONLY reason they’re getting 1 star is because Unilocal requires at least a 1 star rating! Otherwise, I’d give it a BIGFATZERO for being dishonest, and making people sick! Not cool at all!!!

One of the worst clubs if not THE worst club you can go to. I’m positive they put cheap alcohol in name brand bottles. A few of my friends got sick from just a few drinks. Nobody dancing and the DJ is not all that. Avoid this place at all cost. It’ll be a waste of your time and money.

My brother had his 40th birthday after-party here last night. 6÷19÷2015 First, his fiancé had reservations for us, the party group. No cover was suppose to be a part of our group. However, they tried to charge us $ 10 at the door. After talking to the door guy, he and a young lady(with her important iPad) looked us up. Waalaaa! We were on the«list»! Once inside!!! It was dead! The very few people that were in there, were not dancing. The music was more European techno. Not our style. After an hour or so, we jumped ship and went to go eat at Hollywood Diner@ North Ave and Ashland for breakfast. We had a better time there. We really could have stayed at Headquarters Beercade before going to this club.

I loved this place, but you have to go on a Sunday for«Colombian Soul Sundays»! The music was so good and changed it up between house, hip hop, bachata, muranga, and salsa! Its kind of a small place but the music is just so good that it doesn’t even matter. It does have a lot of guys who just stand in the middle that don’t dance and just creep but so does every club I guess. There is a charge for men at the door and a charge for coats. But to me, it was worth it.

I love how they deleted their old Unilocal page which had a bunch of reviews totaling one star. After last weekend, I’m sure they got even more bad ones. Probably because this place used to be known as Bodi(and deadly shootings) as well as the Bieber incident. Basically, if you go, make sure to pay in CASH unless you want to find mysterious charges on your credit card for drinks you did not get. After attending a birthday party(open bar for the first hour and bottle service) the night was still young so I decided to grab a beer because I was far from any kind of tipsy(and considering it is a standing around environment I needed another one). I clearly told the bartender to keep my tab open and handed over my card. When I returned for my second beer, she says she closed me out and asked why I ran away. Seriously? Not my first time at a bar hon. She was not even busy at the time. Anyway, I got my second beer and closed out. Paid the 14 plus 2 buck tip. I check my bank statement the next day, and she also charged me another 7 for when she«closed me out». A charge I never signed off for a drink I never got. The only reason I am not furious is because of the open bar which lighted my spirits. Otherwise, the place is sheisty and the female bartender who worked on 11÷15÷14 needs some serious bartending school. I feel sorry for anyone buying drinks all night. I’m sure these«accidents» happen with them all the time.

So… it was Tuesday night, but it wasn’t bad. Lots of people watching(really, you have no idea!), a pretty decent DJ, and a crowd that(mostly) dances instead of posing. Let’s be honest, it’s a typical Chicago night club and you know what that means. Come check it out after Parliament closes.
