Disturbing place

by 123577 at Citysearch

It?s a shame that a first ?Eco friendly lounge? is the most unfriendliness place in our City! As soon as I walked up to the line, Jan (the clipboard puppet) literally told me that normally she would not let half of these people in, mind you everyone was dressed perfect, and so she was saying that based on their looks. (Do the owners know that they will get sued for their employees talking that way?)It?s not my concern that the woman ( Jan ) is pushing forty and running around checking names of a clipboard and talking to people the way that she does makes her feel some what important for a split second, perhaps she needs that. I can care less about who she deals with, a costumer is a costumer.I know that?s how the owners feel; anyone who?s paying $ 1,900 to be in their club deserves the same, if not more respect as a celebrity who?s getting everything for free.The owners should be aware of what?s going on in their club and that the people who come in and especially the ones who are spending such large amount of money in this disturbing economy, have a descent time. In addition the owners should know that they are getting robed by the people who ?run? the door. They charged two of our friends $150 each just to get in, as far as I?m concerned, it?s against the law! Who is this money going to and why? Instead of respecting the fact that it was someone?s birthday and try to make their experience pleasant, Jan was as rude as a person could be to a birthday girl, who approached her with respect, there is a HUGE LACK OF HUMANITY at ECCO. I understand it?s a ?hot place? for time being anyway, Iknow they?re job is to keep it that way, but have some dignity while you?re at it.People please stay away from ECCOand don?t contribute the most discriminating place I have ever been to. ECCO takes advantage of they?re clients, they will rip you off by asking you to buy a $ 500 bottle per every two people getting in, and attempt to make you feel terrible while they are at it.

Eco-friendly but not so much race friendly

by britpetty at Citysearch

Unfortunately my experience at Ecco was not so great. After my friends and I planned and reserved a table at this establishment, we waited in line for at least 20 mins to first be told that they weren't letting anymore people in even though groups of people were continuing to walk through the rope in front of us. My friend who had already been waiting inside at our table even came out with the promotor who invited us to try and resolve the situation but no budge. Finally the truth came out! The main promotor told our girlfriend that they weren't letting anymore black women in for the night and to not get offended, it's just the business(mind you we came with a predominately Caucasian group and me and one other girl is african american). Our friend angrily stormed out and updated us on why we couldn't enter their establishment as a paying patron. The main promotor noticed our friend was telling us the situation and after whispering amongst her colleagues quickly changed her tune and tried to wave us back with open arms. At this point my other black friend and I were so offended that the thought of stepping into that place was not even close to an option. I just wanted to get the word out to everyone!! I'm not sure if it's the establishment itself or that individual promotor that practices such ignorance but I was very displeased to say the least!
