We went to Trinity on Halloween night.
It was kindof nice that we could get in without cover if we got in line before 10pm.  Most other clubs were already charging cover at that point.  We were a little disappointed with how they handled the line but all that aside it's not too bad of a place.  

They have several different rooms and places to hang out or shake your booty.  I really love clubs that have different rooms for techno and top 40, that way all of the friends can dance somewhere and be happy rather than sitting on the side grumbling.  

Drinks here are pretty strong, and are the usual price you'd pay at a club (read: on the expensive side).  

We got there before 10 and things were not too crowded.  Around 11 or 12 though it got so crowded that you couldn't dance any longer, and were just jammed up against the person next to you, bobbing up and down for air.  Not exactly fun.  If you like to actually dance with some space it might be better to come here on a less busy night, or to come a little earlier in the night to dance and stay to drink and people watch.  (oh and BOY are there some crazy people to watch)

The music was pretty good too.  I'm normally not a techno fan, but the techno room had some good beats going.  The main floor had interesting mashups where they used the backbeat of one song with the lyrics of another... It was strangely interesting!

Halloween festivities:  Costumes were really great, but you saw a lot of the same ol - skinny girls wearing a maid/police/nurse costume.  No discount for having a costume on or not (as far as I know).  The costume contest was interesting, but the people who won did not have the best costumes...

Key Points:
Staff: Meh, typical club staff
Drinks: Moderately strong, usual "club" price
Atmosphere: Before 11, not too crowded, room to dance.  After 11, waaay too crowded, but still could move from room to room.  Not much room to actually dance.
Great for:  Dancing, drinking, de-stressing from the week

P.O.S.

For the unsavvy, that's "piece of sh*t."

The crowd is a convention of 'A Shot at Love' auditioners.  Combined with morning-drive-to-work talent from ??? FM and "they found me on the corner" bartenders, this place is shoot-me-in-the-face fun.

Sober, drunk, or blacked out, I have failed to enjoy Trinity.

During our vacation to Seattle, We thought we would stop by Trinity on a Friday Night. One of my great friends from KISS FM, DJ Phase was DJing that night. We had an absolute blast.

Arrive early as the line can get hectic and the bums will pester you for change. Upon entry, We had VIP wristbands and it was on. Great bartenders in all the areas. The first area, The DJ is above the bar area with a VIP area at the top. This first room was a nice gateway to the other areas. The DJ in this area played strictly 80's music. FUN FUN FUN.

We made our way to the right and entered the BLUE ROOM. The DJs in this room were playing strictly electronic music, House & Electro music. Pretty cool. We then head to the Main Room. It was 10:45pm and the spot was 1/2 full and already jumping. We saw our homie PHASE and we went up to the VIP area. The party was cracking all night long. This dude, Blake Lewis, from American Idol was having his record release party there. He was pretty nice to everyone and said whats up.

Reading these posts about the club can be misleading. I was real weary about other peoples' experience and maybe its because I am from San Francisco and am always expecting the worst out of a club, Trinity Nightclub did not disappoint whatsoever. The crowds were nice, everyone was partying, drinking and have a great time. The drinks we had were amazing and the pour was real heavy. When I closed the tab at the end of the night, I was given 4 VIP passes for a future visit. Talk about HOW COOL!!! Well be back on our next visit. Good times Trinity!!

If I was about 8 years younger I would rate this place a little higher.
Its big, its loud, and its got a long line. If you're in to the real club scene than try this place, but chances are you already have. I know a lot of people get through those doors so they must be doing something right.

First time I went here, wasn't that great. I wasn't really diggin the DJ and no one was dancing...

However I thought I'd give it another shot. The second time around was decent. I went on a thurs night (no cover, $1shots, $3 beers). Although the $1 shots aren't technically straight booze (they're mango-flavored vodka with some fruity-oj stuff), it's still worth the money. They taste great!

The layout of the place is cool as well. There's a large bar and seating area when you first walk in, a lounge, and 2 separate themed rooms that play different music and have their own bars.

Some of the guys there are a bit...odd. Personally I would recommend going with someone or a group of ppl (perhaps a body guard?). If you look like you're  there alone, the boys will swarm.

We hit the bar section at 6:30 on a Friday night.  We were the only people there at the time.

Pros:  The decor is very nice
The bartenders were very good looking and we got great service because we were the only customers
The drinks were good and cheap with happy hour prices
And did I mention the hot bartenders?

Cons:  neighborhood a little sketchy after dark

Not so much.

Thursday night, no cover. Awesome. I needed to shake some booty, and I knew a couple decent DJs would be there at some point later in the night. My boyfriend hates this place and I don't care much for it either, but I'll go where the beats are.

The crowd? Meh. There was a Sounders game that night, so the crowd was very eclectic.  DJs were absolutey HORRIBLE before midnight, when one of my local faves finally hit the decks. Thank God.

ADVERTISED SPECIAL : $1 shots and $3 beers.

Yes, we're in a recession, and though I usually won't take my chances with well booze, tonight, we did. I ordered us shots of vodka with cranberry chasers, and drank Miller High life, the ADVERTISED SPECIAL.

We leave at 1 am, and I asked the BF how much the bill was while we are driving home.  He says he's not sure, didn't pay attention. I had ordered the drinks. Pulls out the receipt, HOLY FUCK.  $37??? By my calculations, the bill should amounted to abso-fucking-lutely no more than $15. Luckily we received an itemized bill so I could see for myself that we were charged NO LESS THAN $6 PER SHOT. The description next to it? Well Drink.

I did not contact mgmt to haggle over the bill. I think I'll be sending the right message when I say that I will never set foot through those doors again.
Trinity gets two stars instead of one because the dude working the door was nice, he smiled, and was funny. Hey door guy - you deserve better. Trinity, you blew it.

Positives:
free passes = no cover.  
decently priced drinks that weren't watered down
played a good amount of hip hop. I really enjoyed that they played E40. (NY never did)

Negatives:
sausage fest.
ratio of men to women was probably 4:1.
we were with mostly girls and often found ourselves trapped in by a barricade of ugly zombie, watching and waiting to pounce on an unsuspecting victim who might stray away from the circle.
trance/house music was randomly/annoyingly thrown in. There is already a trance/house designated room!
sad. short. unfit. ugly men.
the venue had potential to be a fun spacious area, but with that many people, it was pretty much standing room only.
needs to be better ventilated, BO was stinking up the place.

Note to trinity: more space please. we just wanted to dance, be silly, and have fun...not be packed in like sardines and have men try to grind behind us.

In the end we had a a good time, only because of the company

BOOT LEG. I felt like I was in some south-east asian country. We were surrounded by super skinny, what seemed to be mal-nourished girls and fobby guys, with an occasional white and latina girl here and there. And the girls here are aggressive! So much booty + crotch violations took place here.

The music in the hip hop room was good, but hello, have they never heard of air conditioning? the upstairs "VIP" seating area looked all hazy and ghetto. The "techno" room was seriously empty. And the outdoor smoking patio was.....the sidewalk.

I'm not a Seattle resident, so maybe I'm making too many judgment calls. But I don't think this place was worth $15 cover. Even though we got there at 1am.

First of all, Pioneer Square is a shady, shady area. Especially during night and especially if you're a stupid group of girls. We drove around a bit looking for street parking (and because we're Asian and cheap), but finally gave up and paid $10 for parking right across the street from the club for safety and convenience reasons. As soon as we got out to pay at the tollbooth thing, we were immediately approached by some huge, scary-looking dudes. After trying our best to ignore them and avoid eye contact, my friend cussed at them and told them to step off. They finally left us alone after some harassing sexual words (maybe I'm naive and I should have expected this?)

My friend put us on the guestlist and we got there at 9PM to get stamped when the place was completely empty and then went across the street to eat some food. I'm not sure I would have gone if I had had to pay cover charge.

We came back around 11PM and were able to use the back entrance since we had previously been stamped. It was pretty crowded inside, but probably 80% Asian at least. Don't get me wrong, I like Asians (and I'm Asian myself), but I like some DIVERSITY! Lol.

Anyways, some guy offered to buy us drinks and we said yes (free drinks, right?) I'm totally inexperienced with this sort of thing and should have probably said no, but this was my first time with this sort of experience (and my first time at a club period). Anyways, we got drinks and then decided that he was kind of creepy so we told him thanks and left. We were having a good time dancing to Kube/Kiss-type music when the guy who bought us drinks came over and physically PICKED ME UP IN HIS ARMS AND TRIED TO CARRY ME OUT OF THE CLUB. Umm... yeah. Needless to say, I started kicking and screaming and my girlfriends quickly came to my rescue. He later got kicked out by the bouncers, but where were they when I needed them?!

Later in the night, one of my girlfriends and I kept getting dance-sandwiched between Asian guys after repeatedly saying no. Gross. NO MEANS NO, people! Luckily, we had a few guy acquaintances that witnessed it who helped us out. Ick.

Anyways, it was definitely a frightening first experience and I probably won't be going back there anytime soon. Boo Trinity.

For the lack of good nightclubs in Seattle, I still think Trinity is the best. I think a good way to think about it is, well..what did you REALLY expect? There are pretty much always going to be douchey guys that are going to get their creep on. At least there are different rooms with different music, though I still prefer the room that plays Top 40. It's easy to get into, there isn't cover before 11 so not bad. Bathrooms are relatively clean. The friday crowd is a lot different than Saturday..as in a lot more weird!

No.  No, no, no, NO.  Came here for a girlfriend's bachelorette party and never in my life have I ever been so accosted in one nightclub.  As Lois Griffin once said, "My ass feels like a pincushion."  Seriously, so many dirty grabbers at this place.  For every fifty guys there were maybe five girls.  As for the dance floor... what was the freaking POINT?  Everyone was packed up next to each other and all you could manage was the two-step.  Not fun at all.

Another big issue was the restrooms.  Okay, maybe one working toilet for the guys is do-able, but for the ladies?  Hell no.  The line was ridiculous and when you finally got into one of those dirty little stalls there were cocktail glasses everywhere, straws in the toilet, and mounds and mounds of toilet paper all over the floor.  Seriously, ladies, I know you're drunk but get your shit together.  (Literally.  Gag.)

The only - and ONLY - saving grace was the fact that we had a VIP spot so I had a safe haven to go to when I was feeling too molested.  Also, the air was about 15 degrees cooler up the stairs and away from the sea of sweaty, body bumping freaks.

I don't care how many free drinks or VIP offers you throw at me, I will never, EVER come here again.

Music was alright, $15 cover, $12 Vodka+Redbull...It was super ghetto and the place was filled with nasty weirdo's. Friends were in town, and all we wanted to do was to go out, listen to good music and dance. We didn't realize that Trinity was just another meat market until we got there. Ouch. Never again.

This place is awful! I was there once awhile ago and didn't like it then, but I decided to give it another try. I went on a Friday night when cover was only $10 and KISS FM was there. The place is REALLY dark and they overdo the strobe light thing. I couldn't even see my friend standing next to me. This also means that I could barely see anyone who was trying to dance with me.

The music was good in the beginning but towards the end of the night, it got kind of weird. The mixture of people was odd; I didn't know what to make of it. I don't understand why there's always a line. I would rather walk the less than half a block to the Last Supper Club.

An "infamous" friend-of-a-friend brought us here for their Anniversary party. He got us in for free and took us up to the VIP room in the hip hop area (didn't see the other 3 rooms).

In any other circumstances, no amount of alcohol would convince me to step into this place, much less stay and dance. Under these circumstances, however, it was a pretty decent experience. Nice decor, relatively friendly people (for Seattle), decent music. But, well, gotta air the laundry list:

- Drinks are SPENDY
- The DJ knew how to match beats (!) but not how to leave anything on long enough for people to dance
- The non-VIP area was a madhouse. No way the fire code permits that level of sardine-ness.
- The crowd overall lacks maturity. Cases in point?
  ** No, your surfer-dude hairstyle does not make it ok to rub on me like I'm a mohair couch without even asking my name.
  ** No, I do not want to see your muffin-top, butt-crack, or any other hyphenated body part.

Not for me!!  

CONS:  Place gets super packed with COMPLETELY drunk and obnoxious 21 year old frat boys on the weekends, The number of guys to girls is about 15:1.  The ratio of guys to ATTRACTIVE girls is about 85:1.  Drinks are overpriced and the selection sucks, why do people still think Jagerbombs are trendy, and Grey Goose & cran is a classy drink?  Music is bad, no matter what room you go into...

I GET IT! Trinity: 3 Main areas!   I thought there was some weird connection between religion and nightlife areas (i.e. Last Supper Club, Mecca Cafe)

I went here on a Thursday night around midnight since we found lil' action passing by Baltic Room (our original plan).  

The plus side: It was free admission!

Plenty of drunk and scary people... but what's new when it comes to most dance clubs.  Actually, this one oozed with overly drunk and scary people.... I guess it was the free admission that pulled them in.

The music was awesome in the smallest area.  Top 40, Old/New School beats... the other areas were playing Drum & Bass and Techno/Electronica.  I haven't raved in years so I didn't stick close to those areas.  

Guys outnumbered the girls, but it didn't seem as bad as the other reviews claim... It's pretty much a luck of the draw with ratios anyways.  

I suppose I can visit again... but it's not a favorite.

Used to go here a lot during undergrad-
Its a bit small, can get super crowded but its decent place to have fun with friends. Theres parking structure right across the street so for 10 bucks you' should be able to find a relatively close parking.

Different rooms throughout the club- Each room plays different kind of music. The clubs not TOO nice in decor but its dark anyways...

Lots of asians-

Had a great time here last friday, not as good as most times i've been here, but still fun.  It was supper crowded and there had to of been a 10:1 ratio of guys to girls this night.  The music was hopping and a great place to dance.  Just a hint, but if you sign up online and RSVP to one of the nights you plan to attend, you'll get on the VIP list and get in free before 11pm.  Otherwise its $10 cover charge and make sure your shoes are appropriate.  A guy we met outside was turned away because he had flip flops on, even if they were nice ones.  I deducted one star only because the place did not smell good, too much BO if you get my drift.

I was weary about the nightlife in Seattle. Lots of the reviews on Yelp weren't very enticing, and the beginning of my vacation was mostly spent in bars.

(I like a bar or two, but two days straight of bar hopping started to blur together...)

But our lovely hostess with the mostess took us to Trinity in downtown S. The club isn't remarkable in the interior; the bar area was set up with this neo-Asian style. The drinks were on the weak-side as they only carried on my buzz (versus getting me totally wasted). Prices were slightly cheaper than LA stuff, but still $7 for a Tequila Sunrise.

Other important note: there is no cover if you arrive before 10 p.m. Save yourself $15 and get there early.

Music! Trinity has three rooms set up with three different DJs spinning. The house/electronica/dance room was on the small side and lined with a white sofa. I find the DJ that night not spectacular, so I spent most of my time on the main floor which was Top 40. The DJ, there, played a couple of 90s hits ("This Is How We Do It" was my favorite track of the night). The third room, which was more hip-hop like, was on the second floor. And the view, overlooking the bar was pretty awesome.

If I had to knock on Trinity it would be for the clientele. And this might not happen to you, but some grody looking dude tried to grind up on me and I was not feeling it and begging my friends to save me. Then later outside, while I was having a smoke, a bunch of different guys got really aggressive and lewd with my group. Not cool; I don't roll like that.

ETA: To the disgusting, awful, perverted guy who grinded up on me: STAY THE HELL AWAY. If your hands grab me ever again, I will promise that you will never use them again.

No cover!  Wow, coming from LA, that's amazing!

You're greeted by a big buddha as well as a big L bar that takes up most of the small room.  Why a big symbol of suffering?  To portend things to come, especially at the bar?  Or the suffering among the sweaty masses inside the dance rooms?

After you fight through your way through the bar, it's like a "choose your own adventure" series - do you want to flip to page 48 or 72?  Straight ahead is the huge dance floor with its own crowded, square shaped bar.  Upstairs is another lounge area.  Take a curve and you're in the trance area.  This place is a maze!

On weekend nights, the main room becomes packed, like a stuck-in-the-elevator-with-no-air feel or a I-am-in-a-crowded-frat-house-and-its-so-packed-I'm -going-to-take-advantage-feel. Oh! The best way to conceptualize it is a cross between the celebration scene in the Matrix 3 but your body is bound like the mummy in the Mummy.

You will get drinks spilled on you.  You will be groped.  And you will lose your friends.  But if you can stand that... well you just experienced the trinity.  =)

Tip: The drinks are LA prices.  Get stampped and go to IMO for cheaper soju and drinks before you come back.

Trinity is the first Seattle Nightclub to offer bottle service/VIP Tables .  Which is a great concept for those who don't party that often, and just feel like doing it big when they do.  However, my group did NOT want to get the VIP room, which supposedly for a group of 30 people runs $15 pp and comes with a free shot per person. Sounds like a decent deal considering normal admission after 11 pm is $15.  

 So we all show up sometime before 11 Saturday night. At this time street parking is already a bust, but there's a lot right across the street. $12 for the evening, so carpooling is advised.  Luckily my friends were already in line, so my wait was a little less than five minutes. Bouncers were actually very friendly, and the whole putting our names on the guest list thing was useless because there wasn't one. Looks like admission is free for everyone before 11. Works for me.

 So there are three main music rooms in Trinity. The blue techno room, the Chinese (I wish I was Tao in Las Vegas) hip-hop room/bar, and the top40 main ballroom dance floor which doesn't open until around midnight (it helps keep the club busy looking as it fills up for the night).  

So how did they do?

Decor - I wasn't impressed, but I give them props for actually trying much harder than any other Seattle club to be chic.

Crowd - A lot of Asians and not the typical asians you see at clubs like Toi, Venom. I'm talking straight up FOBs and some random sketchy characters all giving evil looks, to the point of "keep your eyes on the floor so you don't get a knife in the back" feeling. Also a lot of older people too (30+) for a night club. I also felt bad for the girls in my group cus apparently some guys on the dance floor didn't get the idea that her running away didn't mean "keep following me".

Drinks - Basic pours, actually I even felt gypped. I asked for my typical Incredible Hulk, glass filled with ice, poured 3/4 full. I asked if he could top off the Henn...he said it'd be a double if he did....seriously?!?  $8 - Incredible Hulk and Vodka Tonic. $11 - Black Opal. Definitely on the pricey side...this isn't Vegas.

DJ's - They play top40, I wish they did a bit more to keep the crowd going and/or shorten the songs a bit (people in clubs have ADD) to keep the vibe going. Either way dance floor was always packed.

Tables - I didn't do it, but I glanced it. They appeared to have good service, but if I got a table for the night. I wouldn't appreciate all the traffic by my table.

Bathrooms/etc - Bathrooms surprisingly were clean and easy to get to throughout the night...and no annoying bathroom attendant to tip for giving you a paper towel.

Overall, I may come visit again. But only if I had a fun group to go with. I see a lot of potential with Trinity, but I think they still got  a lot of work to do.

~G

p.s. On a side note my friend got kicked out of the club for a misunderstanding with the bartender...just figured I'd throw that in there.

My body is sore & my feet have blisters. It's more a compliment to DJ Klever, who rocked the club last Saturday night for the MS holiday party. I can't comment on the "usual" club clientele, but I can say Klever did a great job of getting an older group of computer nerds out on that dance floor.

I really liked the layout of this club, I'd definitely return to check it out on a regular night. The main room might be a bit small, but there are two overlooks with bars and lounge areas to sit & watch the DJ/crowd. I also loved the other, more intimate dance floor (the "blue room") & it's adjoining bar area with booths. It's always nice to be able to carry on a conversation at a club, rather than constantly screaming over the music.

If I had one complaint, it would be lack of bathrooms. We all know that is a necessity when there is alcohol + clubbers on hand.

Pioneer Square = dirty

Trinity = dirty? Well ...it's getting there slowly but surely

I have had a few good times here, but all with the aid of booze. The place is laid out to be really cool, with a proper bar room, lounge type room and large dance floor room (3 rooms, hence trinity). Drink prices are a bit high, but multiple bars cool down massive lines.

The crowd is 90% Asian or Indian. This is fine, but 90% of that crowd are dudes with a license to grind! The music is radio sponsored and a mash up of rap, country, and old rock hits. Like Middle School Dances, remember?

You aren't missing much on this one ...

I'm never a fan of paying a cover charge, though at least this one wasn't too expensive.  I liked the layout & design of the areas, but navigation got to be a problem as the night crept on.  They had tiny bathrooms, which clearly was an issue as more people crammed inside.  Early on in the evening (before 11:30PM), it wasn't too crowded, but all of the sudden, you couldn't move in the place.  Kind of defeats the point of going out to dance I guess.  And, for some reason, random men think its acceptable to grab on you and rub against you without so much as an 'hi' or 'how are you?'  I truly believe some of them were hiding in the shadows waiting to jump out & grind on an unexpecting passerby.  The drinks were way pricey & that didn't help having to put up with rude bartenders.  Some of them were alright, but most seemed annoyed with having to prepare anything.

It is what it is, a nightclub in Pioneer Square.  Though this really isn't my cup of tea (I am not, and will never be a club person) I went with a group of friends to simply just dance and have fun with the people I was with.  I can't give this place a terrible review because as I was waiting for my expensive vodka soda I realized that this club caters to the 20something college crowd and seems to do a pretty decent job at that.  I don't see myself going back anytime soon but can honestly see the appeal it has for the younger, trendier set and if that's who you are, you will have a decent time.

This place is ok. This is Seattle after all, I don't expect much in the club scene. I like how they have several bars and dance floors - this is important to me cuz I can actually *talk* to people when I'm at one of the bars and just chill there. Other clubs in Seattle have just one big dance floor throbbing with music where you have to scream to talk.

There's one dick head bouncer who had picked fights with my group before.

HOT TIP: It's free to get in before 10pm. So go there get your hand stamped, and go somewhere else if you want. When you come back go to the side entrance for the re-entry line where the wait if much shorter.

Uh uh. Nope, not for this girl.

Turns out being a young-fun-twenty-two-year-old is depraved and expensive. $15 cover? Bah! This is still Seattle right?

Perhaps if I ever become a "young professional" I will begin to crave senseless activities that require little clothes and lots of money. Ha.

I MISS THE BOHEMIAN!!

At least when it was the former name and ownership, i felt like i was getting some strong drinks for the money. It was kind of a dump, but it wasnt the worst place in the square to party. AND it used to be on the club stamp.

Well they closed it down, some metrosexuals bought it out, and turned it into a nightmare of an asian hip hop fusion lounge.
They did spiff the place up considerably, cleaned it up, redesigned, and it does look real nice, for that i will give 3 stars.

BUT
Their drinks are weak, unless you order a straight shot, you wont get your bucks worth. The cover is a lot less affordable than the stamp, which gives you access to a few more places.
AND i had a girl puke on me one time as she ran to the bathroom.
any place that doesnt monitor how much they serve one person isnt a great place to go. This was when only 2 of the rooms were open, so one bar was active. The girl ran straight into me, and projectile vomited towards the bathroom, and got a spatter on my shirt.  I was very very not happy. Havent been back.

So if you get here early, they won't let you in certain parts of the dance floor. OK, not a big deal. So we get some drinks and screw around in the "techno room," trying our best hand at some moves like the roger rabbit, the running man, and then attempt a dance off. Must not have been too bad cause we gathered a crowd of creepy voyeurs on the top balcony area.  This is also the point where some weirdo drunk guy came up to my friend and started blatantly rubbing/dancing on her. I couldn't help but snap a picture of my tormented friend.

Once the "hip hop" room opens up we head in there. It immediately becomes crowded with people, so crowded that we are almost pushed up against the DJ booth.  Also, It was a major sausage fest.  The music is OK. DJ's from Kiss were there, and would only play songs they had lined up for the radio. LAME.  The best part of the evening was getting my picture taken with a little old lady dancing in the hip hop room.  I don't know how her family talked her into going, but she seemed to enjoy it.  

The bathroom was nice and close. I never had to wait to get in, however there was a bouncer posted at the end of the building right off of the girls bathroom, and the girls bathroom door is always open. I found it disturbing he could count how many trips I had taken there.

My last complaint has to do with the bouncer who was out front.  Towards the end of the night I had to go in and out of the club a few times to use the phone to call our ride.  I then had to venture back in once the ride got there, because we were missing one of our friends.  The bouncer insisted on staring at my id every time I went back in the club. I saw him let other people in without a double take, but he seriously made me dig out my id and stared at it for 10 seconds each time.  The guy knew exactly who I was, he was just being an asshole.

The bartenders were OK. My all around impression of the staff was that they were kind of rude.  The good thing is that we all got in for free because we signed up on the online VIP list.  I don't know if I'll go back anytime soon.  I think I'd rather hit up Venom, even though it's not fancy, just because there's some actual dance room and guys aren't trying to hump you from every angle.

2-2.5 stars.  Since I never partied in Seattle, I didn't know where to go so my friend who visited from out-of-state just started randomly searching and found it so we gave it a try.  It wasn't toooo bad, but it was crowded, mostly guys, and the only room we stayed in was the hip-hop room.  The DJ was not that spectacular, but played enough songs to dance to.  There were definitely a share of skeezy dudes, but we managed to survive.  Would I go there again?  Not likely, I think there are better places worth looking for than to make an attempt to come here again...

This review is based on the 10 minutes that I spent in this club.

I got in no problem, I thought I walked into an Asian club. Wait, this is an Asian night, and I'm Asian.  So I guess I went to the right place. I was the first one of my group to go into this club, I was just kinda checking out this place while my friends were being carded.  I am sorry, but that is one small lame dance floor you've got.  And seriously, it looks like it has never been remodeled before, it looks really ghetto.

I was losing interest and I felt like an idiot when I was just standing in the corner by myself and I felt that there were people looking. It's been a while since I got in and my friends were not here yet.  I went outside and the bouncer wouldn't let my friends in. Turns out you need a bloody stamp to get in. What the hell.

I went to get a stamp with my friends, we had to go around the corner, and there's a frigging long line for the stamp.  It was already 1am.  This is such a joke.  I guess unless you're really desperate for some Asian I don't see the point of wasting 45 minutes in line.

I don't get why clubs like this like to be pretentious. There's absolutely nothing special about the club.  Save your time, go somewhere else.

Went here on Saturday night about 10.  I'm not sure where the supposed third dance floor is.  There were two, although one of them had a floorspace about the size of the living room in my apartment (which is pretty small for a dance floor).  The music was horrid, except for the "techno" room, but mostly people seemed to be standing around in there.
We hung out until about a quarter after 11 and were entertained only by the people watching.  I would have liked to dance in the techno room, but even the living room sized floor had maybe 10 people dancing and a lot of people standing around.  They opened up what I'm assuming was the top 40 room, which, mysteriously, didn't play what I was under the impression were top 40 songs.  Reminded me of my high school prom.  The third dance floor, I'm assuming, was the walkway between the bar and the tables in the entry...no way they actually expect people to actually dance there.  The music there was even worse than in the top 40 room and it was solid people, but again, no one really dancing much.
I'm new to the Seattle nightlife scene, but I would never go here again, unless I was with a big group of friends and I don't have to pay cover charge (like I did this time).

I go there only on Saturdayt with my friends.
The line to get in is usually super long.
If you wanna go around midnight, you must be prepared to wait for at least 45 mins.
Because they have a lot of V.I.P people, it takes nearly forever if you wait in a regular waiting line.
Today, it took us more than 45 mins although we are waiting in the  V.I.P line.
their cover fee is usually $10-15 (depends on the event).
The music is not bad. Actually, it is kind of easy to dance.
DJ there does a pretty good job selecting songs.
However, the Hip Hop floor gets totally packed by midnight and kind of hard to move after all.
Their lighting is kind of cool too.
I hope they have a stage that everyone can dance.
The drinks are as expensive as other clubs.
They also have one for Techno, but it seems the floor is not popular at all.

Probably good for people who wants go crazy.
(but not too crazy because you may get kicked your ass out)

For Girls: guys there do touch you, so beware.
                However, it's better than some other clubs I know.
                 Also, there are security guard guys around.

This place scares me and makes me want to cry to LBJ. I thought I wouldn't have to see that many g-strings peeking out here-and-there since I left high school.
