Horrible music. All the time the same music. $86 for four shots is unacceptable. I don't recommend!

One of their cleaners, a short 5 foot man grabbed my cigarette out of my hand and threw it on the floor, demanding me to leave and pushing me with all his force. It felt like a 9 year old was trying to fight me so fortunately for him, I just laughed it off. One of the security guards was really understanding, showed me where I could smoke and let me back inside to enjoy my night.

My phone was stolen recently inside the club even though it was in my front pocket and none of the staff seemed shocked or concerned about the number of pickpockets.
My friend also got her phone stolen the week before, it is unacceptable for a nightclub to have such a poor service regarding any theft.
I don't recommend anyone to go in this club if you want to keep your phone.

My friends and I went to the Victorian twice. And twice someone had their phone stolen. We made the staff aware but they couldn't care less. And we heard from other friends that it happened to them frequently too. So those are not out-of-the-ordinary cases but they don't do anything to limit it as long as they have customers...
There are pickpockets stealing phones at every party and the staff doesn't care at all!!
This place is consistently a fun time … they usually play lots of solid electronic music bangers. The crowds are generally here for a fun time. The layout of the place can get a bit packed but has a nice mix of inside & outside areas. Overall it draws a good mix of locals and tourists for a fun vibe 😎
I went to salsa night, and it was such a fun, comfortable, and safe atmosphere, with lots of amazing dancers and a vibrant midnight show. It happens every Thursday.

We came late night Fri, Aug 1st around 11:45pm/midnight because I was in the mood for loud music & dancing. The entrance staff & blonde bartender in the back were friendly. My purse got some laughs. Overall we had a fun time, but the crowd is mainly on the younger side (Under 30).

4th of July 2025 weekend was terrible there. Idk who decided that a dj mixing Waka flocka with like Katy perry music was a good idea. Felt like I was in a black mirror episode show club scene or something it was way off. Let the bangers drop for a while, dj needs to read the crowd better everyone was thinking the exact same thing. I've been here before with good experiences but this was terrible.

Haven't been here in a while but it's most certainly fun even if a little hectic inside on the bottom floor with DJs and will most certainly be a much brighter choice for a bar and nightspot in the area since their main competition The Bungalow just decided to impose a demented $50 charge and reservation requirement to enter there.

I went to their salsa night on Thursday for the first and possibly last time. The club in their effort to make even more money (they already charge you a high entrance fee and the drinks are pretty expensive) had the “brilliant” horrible idea to also have a College Student night on the same Thursday on their basement.
They have separate entrances for their two different crowds but as the night progressed I noticed a steady stream of loud, drunk, and completely oblivious of their surroundings college students walking around the dance floor where the salsa dancing was taking place in the main floor.
At some point later in the night it was basically impossible to dance as these college students came in droves to the main floor and completely disrupted the fun adult vibe.
All of this mess because this business is so hungry for money?
Eventually the adults in the room will not be coming back to a messy business. It’s not cute and it had the potential to escalate into an altercation with drunk college students.
No, thank you.

Wish we stayed longer but for the brief time we were there it was cool. Very frat house vibes but hey, a good DJ, drinks, outdoor and indoor seating means a great time to be had.

Don’t bother coming here if you’re an out of state student!! Didn’t even scan or look at my ID! Bouncers just took it and said its fake, my friend who is from here got in with no problem. Bouncers try to get bribes from you as well, but don’t fall for it! They’ll probably just take your money and not let you in!
