What People Are Saying About Pangaea

In Short – Pretty people primp and queue up outside to gain entrance to this 8,000-square-foot upstairs lounge. Dancers clad scantily in animal prints gyrate to DJ mixes and live bongo drums. Large, white canvas panels are draped from the cavernous ceiling, hanging above giant padded red divans and colored booths tucked against the walls. Groups at reserved tables order bottles of their favorite toxins, priced at an ultra premium, and enjoy the set-up and table service.
Will go back for good performers but never for the club

The saving grace for this club was the band. The music was great, but the club had nothing to do with that.
Service was poor, the layout is poor, and drinks are expensive.
However, what really pushed me over the edge was when I got my tab. There was an initial total on my bill and then there was a much higher total below it. I asked the bartender what made my total higher and he said it was just something they do for security. Really? I wonder how many drunk or oblivious people get ripped off by this "security" procedure.
Also, I only ordered one kind of beer but was charged two different prices, half at one price and half at the other. I would have complained but just wanted to get the hell out of that place.
Don't let the website fool you. This place is terrible.
- Pros: location, music
- Cons: service, layout
Never Again
by klixkiller at Citysearch
Management never returns phone calls and obviously have no communication between each other.
Waitresses are NOT bartenders and should NOT make ANY drinks.
My tab was paid in cash minus $200 to be put on my CC. Waitress informed me that it kept declining. When attempting to head to the ATM to pull out the cash I was harassed by Security, twice. Come to find out the idiot waitress try to run the card for the FULL amount not the $200.
Music was too techno and not what I was informed it would be.
The table Servers did keep up with the table and was the only great thing about the club.
- Pros: Servers
- Cons: Waitress / Management / Security
More bad than good..

I was initially excited to go here. The music was great and the club looked very fun and exciting. That was where the good ends.
Otherwise, the drinks are very pricey, which is fine if you don't mind. The door staff is so gay in who they "let" in. They try to make it seem like it is crowded by having ppl waiting outside but when we go in, the club is full of old ugly men and very young girls....weird and not very representative of Austin.
Also, if you don't use the bottle service you will never sit down nor have a place to dance. Without a bottle you will stand in a couple spots in the front or very back in a huge, humid, crowd. And a bottle is $275 so come prepared to shell it out!!
The staff is pretty crappy, very young girls in dresses that don't know what they're doing and ego-inflated men that act like they're cops without the actual authority.
Overall, I have been there and had fun before. Though it was a headache getting guy friends inside, I spent nearly $400 buying bottles with friends, and kept getting looked up and down by Creepers...
- Pros: Music, decor
- Cons: Price, staff, crowd

When to Go:
DJs are imported from Miami, New York and other urban party meccas on a weekly basis and sponsored events are de rigeur. Call for details.
