The bouncers attacked innocent patrons who were not a part of a fight and then allowed random other guy jump them. Meanwhile they didn't even stop the correct guys who started the whole thing. Shortly after they jumped on another patron who they apparently thought was causing trouble. Unfortunately, after looking at other reviews it does not seem like this is an isolated incident for the bouncers that work there.Clearly these men need education on the correct way to deescalate situations instead of adding to the violence.

I normally do not write reviews but I just moved here and had a friend visiting for a few days! We decided to go out and started with shelter, which quickly turned into a nightmare, the bouncers took both mine AND my friends ID, refused to give them back and proceeded to interrogate my roommate over her ID as well. We had to call the cops to get them back, the worst experience I have ever had at any business. If you read prior reviews it sounds like this bar is notorious for being awful and taking people’s things, honestly it’s just so frustrating that I had to waste the cops time because these bouncers do not know what they are doing and all claim that they are the manager!

I’ve been getting tables her for a few years now. The music is great bc the DJs are there to put on a show (especially fun when they have the lasers)!
I’ve worked closely with Don, Ali, Ashley, Matt and others. They have always gone the extra mile to ensure my table has a great experience and gets the table we want with the bottles we want. Planning ahead or last minute fun, they’ve accommodated me and the people I’ve brought right away! And no waiting in the long line to get in ? Have fun there!

No flip flops? Not an Encinitas bar.

Worst experience i’ve ever had at a business. Bouncers have taken my real ID on multiple occasions and have the biggest ego. Once I summoned a police officer to get my ID back they banned me because i confirmed it was a real ID. Bouncers also threatened to assault my girlfriend when trying to get ID back. Don’t ever come to this spot unless you want to be harassed by the management and get your stuff taken.

This place could be really great. However the service is awful and completely ruins it. Bouncers are terrible.. taking bribes and grabbing girls while checking people in. Extremely crowded inside pretty sure it’s very unsafe and goes against some sort of regulation that needs to be looked into

Worst place I’ve ever been too. Never going back. The bouncers are mean and aggressive. I don’t recommend at all. Just wanted to have a good time with my friends.
A place where 16 & 17 years old kids come to drink .. no ID ...no problem 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

Everything is great except the bouncer named "Naan" or "Nahn" (I'm pretty sure I heard that he is the manager... which is absolutely ridiculous hence all of the reviews I've seen). They must not care because they know people will come anyway. My legal best friend from Canada was visiting and had her ID + multiple second forms of identity verification and he wouldn't accept it. Soon after he had a physical altercation with another man in line. He was extremely rude and condescending to everyone. Eventually she was able to find a picture of her passport and she was let in but the situation this bouncer put us in was extremely unfair and unnecessary. He was power tripping and had no reason not to let her in. There was a second bouncer with him who did absolutely nothing but watch. Educate your bouncers on foreign ID's and how to treat people. I never write reviews but the situation we experienced was absurd and something we have never seen before.

It is hard to express in words how awful this place is. I would honestly usually never even bother writing a review, but what happened tonight was just absolutely out of bounds. Bouncers are extremely!! rude and will try to intimidate and harass you as a woman.I’ve been to many places/bars and clubs all over the world, but I have never ever experienced a place like this. Please do yourself a pleasure and just stay away!!!
