Didn’t have food but this place is awesome! Multiple bars, a brewery and a nightclub. Can’t believe people are complaining about a crappy $8 cover. Worth every penny!
The concept is horrible! NO servers ? I had to scan a QR code to place my order then expected to pay a tip before anything happened ? I tip a server for SERVICE..I'm supposed to tip before food ? CRAZY! Then I have to walk up to the bar stand in line for drinks even for water! pay separately for them at bar!!! My friend ordered same sandwich as me hers was no meat all skin and fat cap with coleslaw all over on top (pulled pork) mine was great...took forever to find how to get someone to tell them, then they left the replacement order in the window for over 5 min before my friend went to ask for it herself.
Terrible on service side won't be back until there's normal servers.
make sure you’re not wearing “athletic shorts” on the hottest day of the year lest you be rejected from this extremely high end nightclub.
Worst music ever. They play the same music every night . And it’s lame millennial music . Don’t go here if you are young
We waited for 20 minutes to be attended while they were serving other customer. I didn’t help to feel it was discrimination due to us being Mexican. I hope that wasn’t the case, but it surely felt like it.
2 weeks ago, my girlfriend and I went out to celebrate her best friends birthday here at The BOB. We went to the nightclub (EVE) and were having a great time. Around midnight, I was standing a little bit in front of the elevators and took one step back and slipped and fell into the split/lunge position. When I attempted to stand back up I nearly fell back down because I couldn’t bear any weight on my left leg because I had hurt my hamstring badly. Two security guards saw it and asked if I was ok but my girlfriend had to answer for me because I was in too much pain to even think. When I looked around to see what had caused me to fall, I saw an employee mopping with no slip and fall sign in place.
Had to go urgent care the next day and nearly went to the ER that night because I thought I pulled my hamstring. Girlfriend had to buy crutches for me to even get down the steps and into the car to get to urgent care. Had to get an xray, a shot into my thigh, and medicine to help with the immense pain I was in. Couldn’t walk for 1 and a half weeks because my hamstring was too injured.
Called the GM of The BOB each day to file a report, never picked up once. Their HR person called me back and said they’d look at the footage and call back the next day to see how they could help me with my medical expenses. And guess what? They never called back and I have been calling The BOB each day for a week and no one has picked up. Called the HR person and they didn’t pick up either.
I’ve been to The BOB numerous times and the EVE and had a great time each time, but never have they mopped near the restrooms in the EVE at midnight for a “spilled drink”. Extremely disappointed in the upper management here and how they handled this situation and refusal to call me back. Disappointing to see this is how they treat their patrons when they get injured and aren’t at fault.
Ok. I’m about to Karen the crap out of this god forsaken joke of a venue. Had a friend playing music at piano bar on 5/31/25. I called earlier in the day and spoke to a nice guy named Alex. I specifically asked if there was a cover charge. He told me “no, not until 9pm”. Great. Showed up around 8:15pm. The first bouncer (some bald guy with a major attitude) we encountered could not have been more rude or pompous. He directed us to another line because apparently he was too cool to speak to us further or be of any help. Then a full-bodied woman proceeded to tell us we had to pay a cover. I very politely told her about my phone conversation earlier and who I spoke with. She did not care or even attempt to listen. What a clown show. No wonder this place gets no business anymore. Terrible!
Sometimes the DJ’s and Eve are disappointing. There are some decent DJs but it seems like you never know if it’s going to be a fun night because sometimes the DJ is not super great.
This was a great experience for our bachelorette party! SOL was very polite and helpful , Aaron not so much ! We had a great time, definitely would come back !

Food is poor quality. Drinks were horrible. Service was good tho. The atmosphere is nice and there are several things to do in the bob but they need to step up their game with food and drinks. They wouldn't take cash to pay the bill, but u can tip in cash.

Great during the day, but at night I’d describe it as overpriced with a mid atmosphere. The drinks are heavily watered down. I got a Long Island iced tea and felt nothing afterwards.its not terrible, just not worth the price point.
