Good music, great location overlooking 8th from a balcony. It's a huge space and the music was good, staff was friendly. Not as many people there as I expected on a Saturday night but it was interesting.

As someone who’s been to gay/LGBT clubs all around the country I was not impressed. Selection of museum was not impressive. The general atmosphere was not pleasant and I didn’t stay more than an hour though I’d visited on a Saturday evening

Sooo much fun usually but the new KJ is actually so rude. Created such an unfun atmosphere and would randomly pick on my friend and I, mind you we did not talk to her all we did was put in 3 songs. Kinda sucked Apparently I have google review beef now. I never cheated the rotation by using different names and have NO clue why we keep being accused of it? I stuck to the name Emma all night (for one duet I added +myfriendsname just like everyone else did) and god forbid if you keep a record I can prove it lol. From an unbiased perspective as a regular customer and not an employees friend, I can safely say I do hope Jen learns to calm down and just have fun. She was very uptight the entire night not just with us. I hope next time we come I’ll be able to say I was wrong and take this review down.
