They should have named this place Grope, since this is where ‘roid-popping guys with lots of hair gel go to hit on underage-looking girls. Bouncers at the door act tough, but anyone willing to pay a $20 cover will likely surpass the bottle service guest list. The venue’s aesthetic is standard mod, except maybe for the namesake element—the bar features a motion sensor and illuminates by a touch of the hand or glass. But even after two vodka sodas, that gets old. The music, however—a well-thought mix of house, hip-hop, and pop—is not half bad. The dilemma? Only meatheads there to dance with, and chances are they’re not familiar with the saying, “touch with your eyes and not with your hands.”
I went there for the girls gone wild party and though it wasn't as wild as the videos at 3 in the morning....I still had a good time. TheBlaqList.com was throwing a party there and they were giving out free shots of goose all night. But the best part I have to say was the bar itself. When you touch it, it changes color. Definitely cool when you're drunk

On Friday July 18, My girlfriend was due to celebrate her 30 birthday. we made reservations a week in advance for bottle service and a list of about 50 people some for bottle service and others just to celebrate.
Six of us arrived early to set up our table and once the little racist promoter saw our black faces he decided that we would have to do a 5 bottle minimum and that didn't include "Henessey". those were his words. the gentleman we booked our reservations with came out and tried to talk to him and he responded by saying, "You didn't tell me this was an urban party" Since when did this kind of discrimination occur. I didn't know that coming out to a party required color changes and specific types of music. We came out to celebrate and enjoy music, whether it was the pussy cat dolls, Jason Mraz, the Ting Tings,estelle or jay-Z. Music has no color.
What made it worse was the fact that the female manager on sight did nothing to appease the situation. that really sucks that we weren't helped at all. just thought that i would speak since racism is still very prominent in this day and age.
