Overall not a bad bar but the blonde coat check girl ruined our night. I’m not sure if she was having a bad day or her attitude is just horrible but she made us genuinely uncomfortable. Beware of getting assaulted by her energy.

Absolutely unacceptable experience at Prohibition Warehouse. If it were not for my friends and I refusing to leave and putting up a fight, my jacket would have been lost completely.

After handing in my coat and waiting, the blonde girl working coat check was immediately rude and unprofessional. Instead of helping, she sarcastically said, “Well do you see your jacket?” as if I were somehow behind the counter looking myself. She then blamed me, repeatedly asking if I was sure I didn’t recheck it or implying my friends took it, even though that clearly wasn’t the case. There is literally a camera right there, which they refused to check.

She then called for “backup,” another blonde staff member, who unfortunately had the same attitude problem. More accusations, more dismissal, zero accountability. Not once did either of them show concern or take the situation seriously.

When the manager finally arrived, I expected some professionalism. Instead, there was no empathy at all, no apology, just making us wait while acting like this wasn’t their issue.

Eventually, they found my jacket not where it was checked in, but in some random place. Instead of owning their mistake, they had the nerve to say that I “must have rechecked it,” which is completely false and honestly insulting.

Between the rude staff, constant blame, refusal to check cameras, and total lack of accountability, this place was beyond frustrating. Coat check is literally their responsibility, and they failed at it while treating customers terribly. I will not be returning, and I don’t recommend trusting this place with your belongings.

The food here is actually pretty good, and it’s a great venue before nighttime. When this place goes into its “nightlife” mode is where problems arise. The staff inside are great, never a problem, however the outdoor staff seem more focused on flirting with girls over doing their job, not to mention escalating/trying to get physical with any man they can. Some of the most aggressive behavior I have ever seen, while keeping a stagnate line even though the inside is empty, all because the doorman is distracted talking up girls.

Prohibition is one of the prerogative writs. This writ prevents a tribunal from continuing proceedings that constitute an improper use of jurisdiction or give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias.

Dirtiest place on the strip the bathrooms are so crusty and they stink, drinks are expensive, old news, old staff, they are worse than Phil’s tbh weird vibes all around.

Honestly, the average-bad food ruined the experience here. The patio was cute with the benches and fire in the middle of the tables, the waiter was attentive, but the food was just sort of standard fryer food. The wings were dry on the inside and had a thick weird coating of batter, the pizza was dry and weirdly flavorless despite the mounds of pepperoni on it.
