Editorial Review for Venue – by Joshua Hinsdale

In Short
Reminiscent of the mega-clubs in Cancun or Acapulco, there are 11,000 square feet of upscale clubbing and lounging space, featuring rich colors and a warm welcoming vibe. There are two long L-shaped bars, a private area, several plasma TVs and a high-profile DJ booth. Live music with the house band and touring acts is featured every Friday and Saturday night.

Venue is the best example of what I can describe as a unique experience. Last weekend a group of friends and I celebrated my 25th birthday. The whole idea of the Live Band, Dj, and Lights Show really made me feel like I was in a different city. Houston has nothing like this anywhere.....it is in downtown and a little far away but I think the drive its really worth it. Actually downtown looks pretty nice, I was reallly impressed!!

Pros: Live Band, Service and Beautiful Facility

Cons: None

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

i was there just last nite and i was standing watching the show on stage, a very old, short gray causacian haired man comes charging near the bar area and pushed me in the process. i stumbled and grabbed him and said "wo! watch out". now, im a female,who had not been drinking and my stature poses no threat and it was very crowded so i went into defense mode as i thought he was intoxicated (he seemed to be)...he yelled out "ur outta here" "get the f outta here" "u wont do that to me!" and grabbed security and escorted me out. i had no idea who this was and told the cops that i was pushed and i merely defended myself. NOONE listened to me. the cops clearly could see i was sober and very confused. turns out, HE IS THE OWNER. this terribly insecure old man needs to give up club ownership and focus on retirement.

Pros: very spacious

Cons: owner,cleanliness and crowd
