Place was amazing. Lighting, the music, and the noise levels were all perfect.

Great food, clean and cultural place, and really nice service. The food smells fresh and taste great

Would leave a negative star if I could. All but 1 bartender ignored myself and my party, it was $20 a person to get in while the manager is judging ever women that walks in like it's a corral of livestock to pick from. Horrible experience, left after 35 minutes and will never go back.

Charged my brother $200 for VIP which includes nothing but a small room upstairs and his guests still had to pay 40 dollars per person to get in. When he asked the manager why the price was high, he was rude and said “If you want you can leave” ( He knew it was his birthday and he was celebrating with friends) . Also, when I was there a couple of months ago, we paid for a table that had no chairs and when we asked the bartenders they just ignored us. The music is ok but the price is so unrealistic for a place as small as this one. I really hope someone else opens a better latin club with better costumer service

Absolutely the WORST “nightclub” / bar in the area. They charge different covers at the door depending on who you are. Literally watched 5 girls go in for free and hit the next group with $40 a person. Bartenders are rude and lazy, and over charge for drinks. The Dj is okay at best. The owner was extremely rude to my girlfriends. They have had multiple locations but keep getting shut down ( probably because of the horrible experiences and staff). Do yourself a favor and go else where! Oh and one of the 5star reviews last name Roldan is his family member= fake review!!!

They need to change their name to “The Scammer”. If I could give this place 0 stars I would. They don’t even deserve the one I put up here. Don’t come here, they on some scamming stuff. I came in with a group of 5… they told us we HAD to pay $10 to get in and $10 for a table each… so $20 total each. They gave us a table with 4 chairs, and refused to give us another chair and refused to give us our $10 back for the the table. They told us that if they give us the money back we’d have to leave. The staff and owner was rude af. The drinks were overpriced as well! Just don’t bother, I’m sure you can find a better place to turn up. I feel bad for security, they was the only nice ones here. Smh they even got shut down! The fire marshal came in and shut them down. Smh

Every week the prices change for entire into The Back Club. Just 2 weeks ago it was $20 cover charge and this week they charge $40 per person. A group of 5 was in front of us and they charged them only $20 per person. The owner was staying right there when we noticed he change the price right in front of us. This is very dishonest and misleading for paying customers. Do not attend this night club.

$25 Cover charge, Saturday night crowd was not as live for a place that doesn't open until 10pm. Space is tight any and every table is considered VIP/Reserved so expect to be standing. Not worth a $20+ cover.
