Shag

Lots of Fun

by Quinch

This place was lots of fun!!! The parking is pretty bad and we spent about 20 minutes looking for parking until we decided Valet would be less of a headache. The drinks were great and the crowd really relaxed and fun. This club is perfect for that 23-28 age bracket. The music was awesome, my bridal party went for fun and drinks the night before the wedding and we had a blast. They conveniently played some throw-back music from the 80's and 90's intertwined with more current hits. I will defintetly go back!

• Pros: Music
• Cons: Parking

WORST CLUB EVERRRR!!!!!

by XxClubberxX

DO NOT GO THERE YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!! AND DO NOT TRY THROWING AN EVENT THERE! I NEVER HATED A PLACE AS MUCH AS THIS.

• Pros: None
• Cons: Small Place, $20 cover, difficult to get in, bad atmosphere, expensive bar, stupid fat bouncers

Stay away from Shag or you could get taken for everything you got.

We didn't stay there for a half hour. The bar is way too slow, and people are rude as heck. We waited FOREVER to get our car back from the valet, and when we got back into the car we could tell that the valet or someone had gone through all of our stuff.

The next day we cleaned the interior completely and lo and behold, what did we find? A GPS tracking device lodged under the seat. This place is as shady as they come. We called the police, but we aren't holding our breath on that one. Stay away from Shag or you could get taken for everything you got.

• Pros: You can tell right away to get the heck out.
• Cons: Filled with thieves.

Crooks and Sleaze. Watch your credit card account for unauthorized charges!!!

If I could give this place 0 stars, that is what I would give it. My first night out in LA was unfortunately spent at this classless joint. It smelled strongly of weeed and was filled with the sleaziest men in the city. $20 cover charge. $20 to park (Unless they tell you "You ain't ugly" and knock off $5 for the parking. Talk about trashy places!)

I could have lived with all that but the part that really ANGERS me is that they charged money on my credit card that I did not authorize. I paid $33 for drinks on my card and left the tip in cash. The next day I discovered they had charged an extra 20% on my card WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. I called them repeatedly. Most of their numbers listed online are conveniently disconnected. If you are lucky to reach any working phone number they list it goes to voice mail and they don't return your calls. I had to call my bank to get this settled. Shag has absolutely no class and if you read through some of the other reviews you will see just how awful a bunch of crooks they are. Watch your wallet if you go there...and watch your bank account!

I will definitely recommend anyone I meet that mentions this place NOT TO GO!!

• Cons: unauthorized credit card charges
