I came here with a buddy of mine. We had flown in to Vancouver for a short vacation, and went out bar hopping. After stopping by one place that was too much like a college bar, we were told about this place. So here we came. At first the bouncer was being a bit hard headed. He claimed some bs to not let us in. However, we knew how to deal with the guy, and we were in. Inside was a party scene of many attractive people, and an upscale vibe. Drinks were conparable in price to what I pay on Hollywood Blvd in LA. The place was small, but there was quality to be seen. We had some drinks, mingled a bit, then continued on in our night of debauchery. We plan on coming back, as this place is aesthetically pleasing. And aside from the disagreeable bouncer that we first encountered, the rest if the staff was on point.

This is a horrible venue to really order a drink. Everything is catered to bottle service. It’s unfortunate that Yaletown has really just become a place to be seen and flaunt your money or(credit card). Definitely won’t be coming back. Wouldn’t recommend unless you want to ball out on bottle service all night. It’s the only time service is ever really given.

I have been here twice and both times I felt a little out of place. I do love a nice classy lounge but my experience the first time was that the female bartenders had no time to serve other women(I assume they make more money by serving men). The second time I was even almost charged 2 different prices for the same drink and when I brought it to her attention she seemed mad at me. I saw the other women show her how she rang it in so that it was $ 15 something instead of $ 17 something and she pretty much threw down the bill and angrily said the new price. Like I was inconveniencing her for not wanting to pay the $ 2 extra for the same drink. For dollar reference it was for a dirty kettle one martini. Not top shelf but not Smirnoff either. The clientele there consisted of some men in suits(attractive) and some women trying to find men paying for bottle service to strike up a conversation with… eluding to gold diggers? You betcha! I am neither! It is very small inside and the décor and set up are cool, although I think you need bottle service to sit at a table. Luckily we ran into old friends so we were able to sit with them which was the one redeeming factor. The second time I went, I was with a big group and we also had bottle service. I would say that this place is not trying to target female customers. Our table was in the corner and near a post and in between the two was apparently a small corridor for the servers to walk through which meant they were constantly walking through our area, often pushing people out of the way and none too impressed with anyone, I saw no smiles. Every time someone orders champagne they light these sparkler things which are pretty but smell terrible. Then the women come serve it and do a little dance, I am totally fine with strip clubs, when I want to be there but this was just kind of annoying, like I know you have breast so do I and so do all the girlfriends of the men we are sitting with — GAUGEYOURCUSTOMER! As far as «lounges» go, this place was so loud, I could barely hear anyone when trying to have a conversation. It was also hot as hell inside. The DJ seemed nice and even played my request a little later in the night. But a DJ and décor do not a place make. I would not willingly go back again!

Tried to get more info, but does anyone know more? Seems they’re owned along with the Chinois, Cento Notti, & Opus Bar…
