What People Are Saying About Florentine Gardens

Featured Review

Brandi Fowler

Contributor

Once a 1930s Hollywood dinner theater and a staple for Tinseltown glam, this old-school joint has made its comeback as a megaclub where the town's legal teens can groove the night away. Not only does the club provide a hangout spot for the under-21 crowd, but it also hosts a number of concerts on its spotlight-lit stage. When the stage isn't packed with performers, a light show blasts over the sea of bodies dancing and watching the music videos on the giant plasma screens. Hip-hop, techno and Top 40 rule the DJ booth and there's a large outdoor smoking patio, complete with seating and a view…

Editor's Tips

Save Money:
The cover charge is always cheaper before 10pm.
The Extras:
Parking can be a nightmare on Hollywood Boulevard. The club features three parking lots to cater to clubbers.
ambiance
60.0% positive
  1. Overall great club atmosphere and fun people.
  2. Okay so i have been to Florentine like about 10 times maybe more, this is how it works-if you don't talk to any girls if you're a guy or dance or kiss or whatever that has to do with a girl you will be one of the many that say "oh it sucked", it's not all
  3. There was and still are lots of people who create a bad atmosphere.
  4. horrible club from parking to stepping in
  5. I've been a few times and it's always really fun and the people dancing around us all had a great vibe.

  1. must agree with the others that drinks are expensive, and this can be a problem especially if you like to dance.

  3. The drinks here are expensive, and range from 5$ for Corona and 7$ for Tequila shots.
  4. What do I see when I get behind the doors ,bunch of girls dancing together right away im thinking is going to be one those days ladies called :"ladies night out sorry", when you ask them to dance, so I still feel very good but, my wallet is getting thinne

Horrible Club

by fogarty237

This place is absolute garbage. I went there on a friday and i will never go there again. 75% of the people in this club are men so for a second i thought i was in a gay club. The venue is dirty and the walls are torn up. I even saw a rat running through the bar. Don't even get me started with the music. The DJs suck. The club should at least spend decent money for a DJ but sadly they don't. Now i know why no girls want to hang out there. I asked for my money back but the head security guard just forced me to leave when i asked. Do yourself a favor and find a better club than this.

  • Pros: Good Location
  • Cons: Everything else

This place is the "it spot"

by taskuba1

Okay so i have been to Florentine like about 10 times maybe more, this is how it works-if you don't talk to any girls if you're a guy or dance or kiss or whatever that has to do with a girl you will be one of the many that say "oh it sucked", it's not all about girls, dance your butt off and i promise you will like this place, okay i also don't relate to most of you guys because i get in for free i don't pay parking and i don't smoke and drink, this club is not ghetto, and it is not lonely trussst mee, every time i go there is 300+ people, once 11 p.m hits it starts getting good, this club is perfect if your 18-25, but yet again not everyone is the same, if you're a shy person that doesn't dance, doesn't talk to girls, likes pushing your luck with securities DON'T GO PLEASE, oh and that goes to all the stuck up girls that are there sometimes, oh and i also forgot to mention the gorgeous go-go dancers!!! just go check it out for yourself so you can write one of these reviews!!

  • Pros: best environment, hot girls, dj milton is the best!
  • Cons: girls that act too hard to get, not clubs fault!!
