Elevate Lounge

06/21/2008 Posted by clubwriter

After eating at Takami and spend some $$$ we got in to this place easily; then no problem to get in. view is the best but the crowd is really not there, I'm sorry to say that but for the club like this with all nice setting and very nice view I was expecating better crowd or music and aslo it wasn't that busy at all, but after 10 min when we got board and on our way leaving the club it was a line out side, I just don't get it if the club is empty why you have people stading in line, this is old fashin way to do business and keep people in line to show your club is full or popular. Be nice to your guests and they write you good reviews which make your club more as hot spot. at the end is a decint place to go and have fun.

Pros: best view, nice setting,

Cons: ugly crowd, average music

Went in last night for the first time. A few friends of mine had been there before. Really nice crowd, but it didn't fill up until 11:30. We got in at 10, so the first hour was a little low on people. By midnight, it was packed! Good music, beatiful girls, and stiff drinks (a little pricey at $11). I will be going back soon.

Pros: Music and Crowd

Cons: $11 drinks

Went to see Elevate with 3 of my girlfriends and ended up having a great time. Thought it was not going to be a good night when the door guys told us there was a $20 cover. One of the promotors or employees told us he would buy us a round or two to make up for it. Cover issues aside, the place was very nice and we all loved the view and got to enjoy the warm weather. I think we came off the dance floor once (to claim our drinks) and headed back. Had a good time and met a cute guy.. Can't go wrong with that deal.

Pros: Great DJ and crowd

Cons: $20 cover

Horrible place, second time there and it's a total low class crowd. Some ethnic people own it and seems have very low class experience on how to manage a club. Don't waste your time at all! Totally overpriced for what it is.

Pros: Descent view

Cons: Everything else is horrible

Loved the place. My girlfriends and I were invited there after the De La Hoya fight. Some of the sponsors had 5 VIP tables booked, so we had free drinks all night!!!! We had a great time! There was a huge group in front, but we had zero issues getting in. The club was packed at the right level (where people weren't stepping on my toes!!!) and the crowd was great. The girls and I are heading back this week!

Pros: Music and scene

Cons: None.

Went to Elevate for the first time and had issues getting in. If it wasn't for one of my friends knowing people there, we probably would not have gotten in. Once we got in, I realized why it is difficult to get in. They have a great crowd and the place is not too big. We have been hanging out in some other places in downtown, but this place has the best crowd by far. I will go back there again.

Pros: Good Crowd and Nice Place

Cons: Door

My husband and i went here to meet some friends. went up to the bouncer and he said my husband was underdressed. he was wearing a collared shirt, slacks (not jeans like everyone else was) and sneakers. i dont know who they think they are but whats done is done. Girls can get in without a problem. I just want to let you all know, in order for MEN to get in, you have to be dressed like a chump and wear black leather shoes. but jeans are TOTALLY appropriate.

A group of girlfriends and I went in last Saturday. I made reservations for a table, but it took them two days to call me back and confirm my reservation. We arrived at about 11:30 and the front door was very crowded. We were instructed to go to the vip line since we had a reservation. They were not even letting groups of girls up without reservations! We checked in and got upstairs without any drama. The club was crowded and the crowd was nice. We got a very nice table next to the dance floor and it worked out great. The only reason why this place is not five stars is because we could not get access to our bottle. It is locked up in a box at the table and the waitress had to pour the drinks. She said it was because the police department required it. Otherwise it's a great place.

Pros: Nice club and good crowd

Cons: Confusion at the door

I wouldn't recommend this club to anyone, granted the view and the club itself is nice. However, one of the owners doesn't like people of color. My Asian friends arrive at the club around 9:30pm on a Saturday night and was told that there will be a long wait. Threre were only two people in front of them. They offered to buy a table and was told by the White co-owner that there were none left. So they waited, while they were waiting they noticed that the co-owner were choosing people from the line who he wanted inside the club. Interesting enough the White co-owner picked WHITE people to enter the club even though they didnt have reservations or buy a table. Meanwhile I was already in the club and didn't know this, but that club wasn't full and there were plenty of tables available to be brought. My friends finally left around 10:40pm to go somewhere else. This club will never see me there again or my friends. There were about 30 of us that night to celebrate a birthday party. Only a handful were inside the club and didn't know what was going on. As soon as our friends told called us, we left.

This place is amazing!!! I felt like I was in a different place NY..England...Europe....I did not feel like LA. This place is an indoor/outdoor lounge with a breath taking view . You could sit and lounge outside or dance the night away. This worked out great with my friends and I....some of us lounged and some danced. We will definitely go back...

Pros: Music and view

Cons: Crowded women's restroom
