Best Rumba Nightclubs In Boston Near Me

Jurassic Jones: Absolute horrible experience, mainly due to the bouncers working outside. Went there on Sunday 4/23/23 to celebrate my birthday - I immediately received a bad reception by the bouncers due to wearing a hat. Not the end of the world, so I took my hat off and began to clip it on my pants. I was told by immediately that that was unacceptable, so then asked if I could bring it in and check it with the coat check…and again with their horrible attitude I was told that couldn’t happen either. I then asked them if I could place it by the door safely and grab it upon leaving. Again with their horrible attitudes, one security guard tells me, “ You can do that, but if someone takes your hat we’re not responsible.”I replied stating that if their duty is to secure the door, patron safety, and belongings in coat check, that if someone indeed steals my item of clothing under their watch, then it would be their responsibility. They continued expressing their toxic macho mannerisms, and I told them that it’s 10:30 PM in Boston and I had to park a long way away to return my hat, mind you it was also raining ! They said it wasn’t their problem…I’m a pretty non confrontational person, and it takes a lot to upset me, but I was frustrated to say the least. I bit the bullet, returned to my car - and in hindsight I should have told the 3 other patrons that came with me that we should relocate to a different place just from the bad taste they left. When I came back, I paid $30 to get in plus $5 for coat check (money wasn’t the issue, I went their to celebrate my birthday at 12AM and just wanted to get in and make the best of it.)When I finally got inside, the venue was riddled with guys wearing hats. Skullys, fitteds, beanies, you name it.Rules are rules, and if they applied to everyone I wouldn’t of even taken the time to write this review, but the combination of horrible customer service and hypocrisy really set the tone for my experience throughout the night. I’m one person, and it probably won’t make a difference, but I’m never going that establishment again. Bad enough the venue was the size of a closet.Exceptional customer service goes a long way! Unfortunately, I’d rate the bouncers a -5/10. Their attitude felt personal, and they should truly seek proper customer service training. This was a horrible way to bring in my birthday.

Trang linh Lương thị: I got harrased by the security when he touches me without my consent and they didnt even care to hear my side of the story. They even accused my friend of stealing the employees phone. And they also tried to avoid taxes by taking cash only. They don’t treat me like human.

Multi- Purpose: Be aware of racist security guards at the door, denied us entrance because of our skin color even though we had purchased tickets on Eventbrite.

Yevhenii Diomidov: They didn't let me in because I had my emotional support plushie with me.

Nathalia Martins: Don't waste your time coming here. Everything about this place is TRASH. Bartenders will rob your money and give themselves more for tips.Plenty of other places to go to.

John Centofanti: My friends and I bought tickets for NYE Midnight ranging from $50-90. The ticket "guaranteed admission" but the entire line waiting outside was denied admission with claims that they were "at capacity". The bouncers couldn't care less about looking at our tickets or helping with refunds. They told us to figure out the refunds ourselves, meanwhile Eventbrite doesn't even have customer service so we're all struggling to get refunds now. Your money is better spent elsewhere!

Ethan Carey: Bouncers are completely inconsiderate and arrogant, made simply entering the club difficult and uncomfortable. Venue itself is mediocre at best.

Mohammed Albadrani: Worst line eve! Security guys are just money diggers !The big black guy and the Arabic looking guy Abbas🖕🖕

Yousif Alani: Don’t ever come here, the line is ridiculous

Jason “FunnnyFall” Do: Came here for an RnB event. Definitely had a great time! A bit crowded but it’s part of the experience

TARAN MATHUR: Waste of time, full of underage cringe college students. Such a stupid system of creating a guest list queue for everyone to stand in. Girls who are attractive can skip the line just by flirting with the arrogant security staff. Clearly not a top club!

Madisyn Paige: 0/10

Rob: Poured 3/4 of a beer and charged me for the whole beer. Watched the bar tender put the 1/4 of the drink I paid for in the trash. Go somewhere else.

D: I would suggest going somewhere else. The door snobs running up front are obnoxious.Dropped ID outside, out of reach behind the gate, politely asked one of the bouncers if they could grab it for me, and was met with some “pseudo-alpha male” bs. “You can walk around and get it yourself.” Formerly being a bouncer, there’s really no reason for that, and also there was a gated crowd in line behind me. Unruly and drunk people are one thing, not regular patrons who were asking a favor because they literally could not get an item they dropped. We were removed from the line because I called Hamplanet Billy a dbag, no excuse there, but dang. Don’t act like a knob for no reason.Edit: read the previous reviews - it isn’t just me who thinks the bouncers are rude for no reason.

Bruzual Family: They cloned my credit card and did several charges. On dates I was not even in the city

Vinnicios “vinny” Ferreira: Venu is family.

L Mitchell (Lauraien): I’m pretty sure a bartender openly took my money, knowing there was an extra $20, instead on here honey you gave me too much.

Jaredleader Leader: Pre paid for entry then we're turned away without refund by the owner because they were full

strela Negra: The security are very unprofessional we was on the front line they went all the way down on the line to grab 6 girls that was already drunk to put in because they need more girls than man that is what the latino security said! That is why happened a lot crimes over and over again because of they unprofessional jobs! I NOT A PLACE TO BE BECAUSE ITS NOT SAFE BECAUSE THE SECURITY DONT DO THEY JOB VERY GOOD!!! Be careful and be safe

Keoni Rellin: Had a great time! , Went by myself last night and had a blast The DJ was playin absolute hip hop boppers, all the bouncers were super friendly when I talked to them nice and clean place, overall had a blast and would definitely go back! :) Only reason I wouldn't give it five stars is cuz some of the bartenders and bottle girls were not in a positive mood but there was one that was really nice and made my night better :)

Jose Carbo Laso: My coat was robbed here.Please be careful with your belongings

Bill Wohlers: Great music and environment, short lines, overall one of the best spots in the area for partying.

Mark Fry: Nice view on the photos

K K: Maybe you should inform people when you have a hip hop night

Jennifer Denise (Lulu bell): I've but it's been so long when u guys open my birthday 21 july trying get hotel an come there that weekend ..?

شگفتی های باستانی و آثار تاریخی ایران: نزدیکی بوستون به کانادا این شهر خونه دوم ما شده

Maja Maja: When you will open for public? So so disappointed 😬

Eyal Shaich: Good vibes. Jumpy crowd :)

Carla Romo: One star is overrating them

Paul Vasconcelos: Great place

Ashley Marrino: Sammi is an amazing part of the down staff! VERY attentive, sweet, and SO MUCH fun!!! She made my experience one to remember! I will come back many more times because of her! I have gone there before and it was not the same experience as I had with her. I highly recommend requesting her every time you wanna go!

Michael Bitto: Ashley helped me plan a high school reunion to remember. She was extremely accommodating and prompt responding to any question or request I had via phone or email. Ashley and the rest of the staff took care of everything the night of so the only thing I had to do was enjoy myself. Great venue and a great time.

Erik Romero: It's affiliated with the bar next to it, both refusing me service because they saw me drink from a water bottle outside before I got in. Stating "we saw you drinking liquor" and refusing to let me in because of it. IT WAS WATER, even if it wasn't what I do outside of your establishment does not concern the bouncers!

james rosania: Do not come here. Bouncers are bullies. I got tossed out by the Asian bouncer for no reason and he wouldn't let me know why I was getting kicked. He also would not let me tell my friends. He put me in a tight chokehold as we were exiting. As he handled me up the stairs I asked to be let go to escort myself out. He tightened his grip around my neck. Then he pushed me as hard as he could. Never coming back here again.

Amanda Howell: Will be back!

John Hennessy: Load of bollox

Cody Page: Went here for New Years eve, had a great time.

Michelle Stolwyk: Avoid if you're in the 30 and up range - reminded me of the frat parties in college. If you're looking for the sticky floor and getting smashed scene, then this place has you covered.

Denis Crnalic: This place is trash lmao

Joelle C.: I recently celebrated my birthday here and had a blast! I worked with Matt to book a table and he was the best to work with. Answered all of my questions and was extremely responsive, even followed up with me the day after to see how everything was. Jenny, the bartender for our table, was great and super nice. Everything from the booking process to the music to the service was fantastic! Would definitely recommend to others!

Sara Panahi: Run

alkin: PAYED $30 and music system is CHEAP and sounds broken. Unacceptable.

Jack Sila: They have absolute no respect for their guests. They harassed me multiple times because I put my feet on an ottoman (as if that’s not the purpose of it). They threaten to kick me out if I did it again, because apparently quietly sitting is enough to get you removed. If you’re young they will harass you and disrespect you. Don’t bother coming here and go anywhere else.

Jamie Koury-Judkins: Rob was there. Always fun!

ariella yoon: Great atmosphere. Great crew. Their drinks are a bit pricey but it gets you tipsy fast so I suppose it’s worth it. Their music is good too. I’d recommend.

Nancy G: Not a bad place, loved the music!

Rickbob Bob: It was okay wish there was more people and the vip is not worth it . And so pricey for no reason

Bravo Bravo: Bouncer setting up ridiculous wardrobe standards.

Crystal Taylor: Apparently physical assault on young women less than 100 lbs (twisting arms, punching in the face) by managers and bouncers, while hurling racial slurs, is what makes this place "glam". Shame on this horrendous establishment.

Mikhail Beg: It was a really great time

Jonathan Jackson: Cool night spot. Went after Harvard Yale, so the vibe was fun and people were having a good time. It fills up fast, so if you aren’t doing a table, don’t play yourself and show up before 12. Drinks are priced typically for a night spot. Also a solid venue if you are looking to have a semi-private birthday, it could fit the bill.

Jeremiah Seymour: WARNING: Stay away!!!!! Bag check gave someone who claimed to be me without my ticket my coat and bag. Management of this club told me over and over they would replace my $250 coat and $150 bag and belongings. This was a lie. The management and owner of the club never paid. If you want to coat stolen and you gear taken this is the place to go otherwise there are better clubs literally across the street.

Jazz Geez: The crowd is very diverse. The bartenders are friendly. The DJ for Saturays is straight trash and does not let any song play out.

B: Went on a Friday night. Good size crowd, busy but not packed. Had 2 different style lounges which was nice. Would definitely return and recommend

Diego Omar: I went to the gay Latin night on Wednesday, and it was a dissapointment. Let me start with the positive: Security, bartenders, lights, and ambient are great. It is a really nice place. However, the music was all in English with three or four words in Spanish. I'm a bilingual US citizen with many years in this country, but what Cure promotes as a Latin night is 90% water with sugar and 10% real juice. Very, very diluted. I prefer to continue supporting the gay Saturday nights of the place where I use to go in Revere Beach, where it is 100% music in Spanish. I will never conform with English music from Pitbull as a substitute for a great salsa in Spanish from Marc Anthony.

Henry Hayrapetyan: This place is ridiculous. One day they don’t let bags in, and another day they refuse to let people with tank-tops in. Like what? Who are to tell me what to wear?! This is summer!

Jessica Long: I've gone here a couple of times. In the past it was free, but this time we had to pay, which was not explicitly listed on the event information.Otherwise, it was a fun time. There was great music. It kind of stunk though a first because there was no base in the music, but it was because there was another event going on upstairs.There is no ATM and when we had to pay we had no money to check our coats. However, the promoter was very kind and helped us get in so that we could party!

Dan Payne: Overpriced, paid 20 bucks on a sunday and it was empty when the ticket girl lied and said there was alot of people. We asked if we could take a quick look and she said we couldnt. rude staff waaaaay too loud even for a night club, they were smoking weed in there when the time before the bouncer stole my weed and bowl from my pocket when patting me down and said I needed to pay 20 bucks to get it back. When I paid to get it back there was almost nothing left in the bag. I also heard there were stabbings here. Don't waste your time and money in this place. Im not one to talk bad about a place but this club needs to be shut down. Stay far away from here

Vanna Ngo: A place to go to if you don’t want to wait in line for Venu, Icon or Bijou. It’s a small club, but ambience is fun. Good music all around (reggaeton and hip hop). Decent drinks. I will say though… the clientele is kind of questionable. Lots of solo males here compared to other clubs in Boston. Had a handful of creeps come up to me and my friend so I would deff just skip out on this place and wait in line somewhere else, even if other places are a little more expensive

Lauren True: Great security, felt safe

ryanrapada1: Trash. Don’t waste your time. Waited in line for 2 hours. Unless you’re “VIP” they’ll make you wait. I don’t know how or why some people were getting in. Bouncers were racist and made snide remarks to minorities. Owner came out and cursed out the front people in the line for asking how long the wait was. He kept shoving us back even when we were behind the line, also encouraged racist comments at people in the line. Go here if you want to be berated and treated inhumanely. Trash

B1ackeyez: Tunnel was very good!

Raquel Rivera Díaz: Not recommendable, waste of time and 20$

Roberto Sims: The short little bouncer/security guy was loooking to pick a fight with anybody that walked past him. It was honestly a bad time all around- bad service and bad vibes. Never coming here again.

Kathleen Attardo: We went here to dance and hear good music! A night out w my sister in law, my daughter & my niece! SOOO much fun!!

Niko Cardini: Went here with a large group of friends not knowing what to expect, and had an absolute blast.Main reason for 5 stars is that the hospitality at Tunnel was by far better than any club I have been to in Boston. Every single staff member were of the most friendly people I've met working at a club/bar scene. Props to you all!

Steven Mendez: Ordered a bottle and waitress charged my card before checking if it was in stock, it wasn’t. Then offered to “give me a deal” if I spent double the amount I originally planned on. I was told I would be refunded but never was. The number posted doesn’t even ring if you try to call it. Scammers, will never return or recommend.

Gina M: DO NOT GO HERE!!!! I was lied to at the front door saying the bar would be open for 2 more hours and so I paid the $20 cover charge but it was actually only open for 20 more minutes. The music was trash and people were creepy. The only good part was a really nice employee named Heavy.

Lisa “LeeLee” Demeo: It’s everything I expected & so much more 💋

Andrea Estefani: Umm I always go to this place when I’m in Boston lol BUT TeLL THE DJ TO STOP PLAYING DRAKE All night please lol I love him but not all night we need DIFFERENT ARTIST OKAY I’m done lol

Giovanna Marino: Awesome place with great music and great vibes

Camille Brunetti: Had an amazing night here! Drinks are a little pricey, but the bartenders were quick and friendly. Definitely a small space but the lighting was so fun, the dance floor was full without being too crowded and the music was great—cover was $20 when we got there around 9:30/10. Also, security was visible and helpful w/o being intimidating—great spot for how small it is!

Britt Lane: Love this place? Is it still open?

Carley Leonard: We went there for my friends birthday we had a great time!

Irma Nalic: worst bouncers

Mila Z: Bouncers were the worst human beings. My brother had a ticket and they wouldn’t let him in because it was 5 minutes past the time but they were rude and condescending even though he was waiting in line. Do not go!!!

catherine B: By far the WORST night club experience in Boston.

Madison Attardo: Im 22 years old and they wouldn’t let me in cause they didn’t believe I was of age even after showing the bouncer my license. My friends and I then had to call an uber to find a new place to go although we planned all night to go to tunnel, which was a huge inconvenience. I would NOT recommend going there because if it happened to me it probably happens to others. The bouncer also asked to see my facebook profile and still did not believe me. They are unprofessional and absolutely stupid

Emmanuel Londono: Friendly staff. Very friendly bouncer. Not beginner friendly. You DO NEED a partner for this place. Website clearly states no partner needed. You dance solo non beginner friendly báchata/salsa for 10-15 minutes which was fun. THEN you NEED a partner. One of the gentleman that came to learn solo, poor guy walked around for 10-15 minutes trying to find someone but obviously couldn’t SINCE YOU NEED A PARTNER.5 guys sitting alone on seats because they came alone with the intention to strictly learn. DO NOT COME IF you are single, or did not bring a friend… at least offer solo dancing if you’re going to state no partner needed. Waste of money. I’m not shy AT ALL, and social interactions I excel at. Frustrated since I paid 15 dollars to dance 15 minutes.Cute place for a date, or learning WITH A PARTNER. The beginner friendly dancing Is like expecting a 4 year old child to read a short 300 page novel...( I know how to get by with bachata) Manage your own expectations. I would’ve danced more beginner friendly bachata at a club or bar much more easily, and would’ve easily found a “partner” there.

Rafael Game Franca Ribeiro da Silva: My first time there and I like very cool and nice people

Varun Behl: Great for cheap bachata and salsa lessons and social dancing, the sangria is amazing too.Edit went for Monday bachata, it was also super fun, video attached of the post lesson demonstration

A& A: Come here for great fun salsa! Not snobby. Friendly dancers of all races were here on Tuesday. The entrance was free before 9pm on Tuesday May 2nd 2017. This was recommended by a friend who lives locally. Would come back here again.

Hazel Anne Salvador: My partner and I went to the Saturday salsa + bachata dance lesson and after party. We enjoyed our night so much, and will definitely be back again soon. The instructors, music, and drinks were wonderful. Any dancer of all levels will enjoy it here. Btw, there is a coat and bag check there which is free

Nathaniel: Seemed great if you already know how to dance, but if youre a beginner don’t bother. The lessons are awful if you don’t already know dances. Within the first 2 minutes they just started saying numbers without telling what’s going on. Half the people don’t know what’s happening and the instructors act like it should be common knowledge. If you don’t know how to dance and want to be embarrassed then this is your place.

Craig Martin: I go somewhat regularly and it's made me a much better dancer - still a long way to go. I saw another review complaining about the bouncer and the vaccine card policy. Every time I go, the bouncer gives me a big smile and thanks me for coming. Very nice person just like the rest of the staff. I've never had a bad experience and I appreciate knowing everyone inside is vaccinated.

Alex Kakambouras: Great bartenders :)

Marshall Tsien: #great #vibes , late into da night means more spilled drinks n wetter dance floor ... #good #times #dimes

Peter Hatzidimitriu Dimas: Will revert back to five stars once the discriminatory and highly unnecessary vaccination policy is removed

Juan Amaro: Me gustaba mucho antes porque era más salsa los viernes, pero ahora es más bachata

Paul Garcia: Requires vaccine card to get in

Shih-Yuan Liu: Havana Club is one of the best places to dance bachata in Boston. I am a regular, and I really like the very spacious hardwood dance floor, the friendly atmosphere and people, and the wonderful music. Jeff makes a point in keeping the dancers safe. The staff shows strong professionalism and high integrity. Today, I lost my wedding band; Jeff and his wonderful staff made a real effort in finding my ring. I am extremely grateful that they found it and returned it to me on the same day. If you like latin dance, I highly recommend Havana Club!

A.J. Mills: Please be careful here. I am not sure if it was staff or another patron, but someone put something in my drink here last night. I am a 6 foot 270lb man, this can happen to anyone. I’m lucky my friends were there to take care of me, things could have been much worse.Edit after Owner Response:I am glad that, as an owner, you memorize each patron at the bar every night and your first instinct is to deflect rather than seeking more info. Sadly this is to be expected based off of the tone in other review responses. This is a disgusting problem rampant all over the city and I, as a bar owner, would be be focused on ensuring the safety of my patrons. Again, I am thankful that I was not alone, as my friends were able to make sure I got home safely, something I would not have been able to do on my own. As I said, this can happen to anyone at any time--go out in groups, and stay vigilant.

Charles Jacobs: Strict vaccine card policy and rude bouncer who prides himself in turning people away.I presented an iPhone photo of my Passport (which has been accepted at ever bar I’ve gone to in Boston and Chicago…) and bouncer insisted that it was invalid.I offered to show him matching insurance cards, bank accounts, social media accounts etc. but he was insistent on that not being “valid” because of everyone’s “safety.”😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑 Really?He bragged how he “once sent a guy all the way back to Lowell.”When I asked to speak to anyone else inside, like a manager/owner, the answer was a hard no…Went home but didn’t end up going back because I was so turned off by this guy.I realize he was “just doing his job,” but why not accept this form of ID when EVERYWHERE else I’ve gone has accepted this? Any explanation?This was my first time going to visit here and my last time trying to visit here.I will Not be making a second attempt to visit.(Visited on 8/2/2022)

Terri O'Brien: I have a medical exemption for the vax but couldn't get in. Vaxed people get & transmit Covid. I test every week but can't get in. No one wears a mask. I find this practice discriminatory, political & completely nonsensical.It would make more sense to me if masks were also required but yes I will absolutely respect your decisions and policies. I look forward to a time when none of this is necessary. Enjoy your day.

Carmen Toure Lorenzo: Pretty good music; but it really is about 70% bachata. Not sure where to go for mostly salsa, but again I enjoyed. Friendly crowd

Lena Owens: Great place to dance, definitely would recommend it. Space is large but on the interior so there aren’t any windows. Stayed pretty cool on a hot day because of their large fans. Staff were nice and bathrooms were clean!

Patience Jackson: The atmosphere looks great! Didn't get to experience it though because my husband and I didn't have proof of vaccination. Definitely bring it with you if you have it! We came all that way and couldn't come in :(

Dani James: Make sure you check THEIR personal website. I was using Bostonsalsacentral.com and they advertised a social on Tuesdays and Thursdays but there isn't one. It's just a class those days.

Ishaan Tiwari: just plain racist.

Sarrah Marcotte: No thanks. Went here for NYE, and the ticket was $65, which is fine I get it it's Boston. Ticket was for 9, I arrived around 10:15, there was literally no line, and the bouncer made me wait in the rain for 20 minutes it was so weird. If I'm paying $65 for a ticket, I don't want to be waiting in the rain for 20 minutes when there is literally no line.We get in there, checking in went quick, coat check was very affordable. Most of the staff was very cold though.We hit the dance floor and the speakers were literally so awful it sounded like someone's phone in a cup (like actually). I asked one of the bouncers why the music was so scratchy and quiet, and he said it was because they couldn't turn on the real speakers until 11:45 because the place they rent from above them was hosting another event and the club has to stay quiet. I was like ok its NYE, my friends and I paid well over $200 just to get in here and there is no actual music....in a CLUB until 11:45 on nye.AND to top this off, my friend was over served and when she asked for water the bartender said "oh we don't have that here" which was just absurd.Whole thing felt scammy an unwell.

Maura Maguire: Absolutely awful, overpriced and hands down the worst DJ I have ever heard. The energy was non-existent and no one seemed to be enjoying themselves. An absolute waste of money

Raffaele Guida: Meh it's an ok club, kinda small. All of a sudden they increased their cover charge to $40 just because other clubs did the same in Boston, ok but if nothing has improved then it's also not justified. Yes way overpriced. I don't recommend it

gisele berchem: I would like to say thank you to mischael the bouncer. He deserves not only the world but also a raise. He found my friends door bag after every single employee of the club was pushing us out. Michael came through and really understood the severity of the situation due to the mission Dior duffle bay. Again Michael deserves at least a 20k raise. He found the bag and is the Goat in life. Big thanks we love u forever Michael. Drinks on us after finals weeks ❤️

AL Davalos: Haven’t been to this club, simply spreading awareness. Not trying to Hava bad nightclub experience.

Olivia Quercio: friends all got roofiedn

Ty the Real estate Guy Ent (Ty the Real Estate Guy): Nice place to enjoy with friends and people you can enjoy time with.

Yudy Salgado: Bartender was rude

Manuel Iván Reyes: Worst club I've ever been to. Bouncers were really rude with us as tourists and disrespectful. Don't go there.

haley laurencio: do not come to this night club unless you want to get physically assaulted by the bouncers. They are extremely disrespectful. A bouncer purposely knocked a drink out of my friends hand and then continued to grab him physically. Also do not pay the $30-40 cover fee for a trash bar. There are plenty of other options to have a great night out in boston! NEVER GO HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Delianna Santana: They will have a long line and that’s what deceives everyone to thinking they will have a great night. This facility is not for those who want to enjoy a luxurious night life experience in Boston. The cover charge is $30 which is definitely overpriced in my opinion. They bouncers are okay some will give a hard time other are a bit chill. Would not recommend this club to anyone in the area.

Uncle Big Man aka GURU DOO-DU: Nice staff great place

Spencer: Grad school buddies and I (all in our late 20s/early 30s) wanted to check out a new spot for nightlife and went last night. Cover was $40 and if I had to guess I’d say conservatively 90% of the crowd got in with fake IDs. Not exactly our scene these days. If you’re under 21 and looking for a club in Boston, this seems like your spot. If you’re an adult looking to go out, skip this place.

Rachel: The bouncers out front were extremely rude and degrading - they turned away half my friends for “pregaming” saying it wasn’t allowed and called one of my friends with glasses four-eyes. I tried to ask for clarification about what they meant from the self proclaimed owner of the establishment and he rudely kept yelling at me that he owed me no explanation and to mind my own business. Don’t waste your money here

Kim Hubner: Was in Boston for the weekend from Pittsburgh and a worker at a bar near by recommended this “nightclub”. Cost $30 for a cover charge for literally the worst nightclub I’ve ever been too. The bartender didn’t even know how to make a Vegas bomb and neither did the other two bartenders. He put Jameson, triple sec, and topped it with Red Bull in a little shot glass. Not to mention this place is SO small as well. Don’t waste your time going to the place!!

Lux Llama Productions: Pretty good

Anjali Ravichandran: I was doing a bar crawl yesterday and it was 11:50AM. HAVA was so empty, no crowd, the bartender was not busy at all. All I ordered was 2 shots. I did not tip because my friend wrote down a big tip on her transaction. Next thing I know, I check my bank statement, and the bartender added a tip himself!!! I don't mind giving him a tip. But adding it on himself without me authorizing it?? ILLEGAL. THATS CONSIDERED FRAUD. If ur at this club, be aware u might get scammed!!!!!!!!

Paola V Alamo Andujar: Worst vodka soda I’ve ever had. Never order this here, or anything for that matter. Extremely overpriced.

Jerson Olano: Great time there. Long line for no apparent reason

Carla D'avanzo: Got there early and bought tix at the door, service and security were very friendly and felt safe and comfortable. Music was fun. The djs I went for came out pretty late, at 12.30am, I expected the set to be a bit longer

Jessica Martiniello: Until just recently, I hadn't been to Bijou since way before covid and my experience has only been 10/10 since. The new second floor lounge is such a vibe, as they have day parties that offer Rose!! Staff was polite and professional. Music was ACTUALLY good and the crowd was mixed with young professionals. Bury me at Bijou 3.

Bianca Andrade: My favorite club ❤️

maxbaxish: You know a place is truly terrible when the employee cannot look you in the eyes as she explains their policy to you. Incredibly predatory ticketing system. Bought a ticket in advance online for ~$34 that was for early arrival (before 11:30). I show up at 11 but have to wait in line because it’s a busy Saturday night. Understandable, but by the time I get up there it’s passed 11:30 and I am told that my ticket is invalid and I now have to pay a $43 cover. $77 before even walking in the bar. The woman I was talking to was staring directly at the floor the entire time I was trying to explain the situation to her and just kept repeating the same thing. She knew it was BS but that’s their business here.They should specify their early arrival policy to say “before 11:30 + however long you think the line will be that night.”

Ana Osorio: Nice place to meet up with friends for a night out. Good drinks. Parking was not so easy.

Brianna Pizzuto: There is a way to treat customers. The bouncers are rude and disrespectful. I would not recommend giving your money to a place that does not respect who is paying.

Dhuru Patel: Racist and rude bouncers, terrible management

Maria Terentyeva: Favorite night club in Boston.Always on top with DJs, ambiance and drinks!

Chloe Georges: I’ve been to many Boston clubs, however Bijou is the best! One thing I’ve noticed about bijou compared to other clubs in Boston is the diversity of the music.I heard music from many different countries which is not common in Boston. I definitely recommend this place for people who wanna have a great time and listen to amazing music!

Haley Camacho: Bijou is amazing!! If I could rate it more than 5 stars I would. From the exceptional customer service to the best djs in the city. Bijou is the spot in Boston.

J N: Great spot. No complaints. Bouncers were extra careful to search everyone entering which honestly makes me feel a little better.

Erin Noel: been going for a while - saturday nights have the best music with dj sisko! the bottle girls are all so pretty and so sweet! their outfits are so cute on the theme nights! legit all the staff are very down to earth and helpful, from diamond in security to the women’s bathroom attendant! gives a very intimate and more personalized vibe in contrast to other boston clubs

Fernanda Madrid: Worst light show in Boston, good djs too bad the lights take so much from it. Also $7 for the jackets… drinks 2.2/5

Joe Karam: Best nightclub in Boston

Adnan Haider: I had the best time here, I’ve been going out in Boston for so long and nothing is like going to Bijou. From the moment you walk in until you leave their establishment you’re having a great time. Highly recommend visiting if you’re in town

Alexa Benedetto: Visited Bijou recently & I must say the environment was great! DJ’s were awesome - along with the staff being very friendly & accommodating! 10/10 would recommend & will definitely be back in the future!

cary rodrigues: Definitely my favorite Boston nightclub in Chinatown bijou sound system is definitely amazing & there staff there so Beautiful & friendly professional. I totally love the experience and environment.

Marina Morais: the djs are amazing and customer service is on point! i always enjoy my visit to bijou! 10/10 would recommend

bvb2o11: Ive enjoyed the boston nightlife for 9 years now and this was my worst experience ever. Not only did I wait for 40 minutes outside in 15 degrees for my table for my birthday, the security at the line “whos not responsible for the line”was letting in over 15+ different frat boys over the course of our wait. Once the last one did I questioned why and I was kicked out of line then they watched me wait line again, just to kick me out once i reached the end for their own sick narcissistic enjoyment. Never ever again do not ever go here. Much better places like Venu, empire, bijou, memoir in encore etc. Not to mention theirs been reports of spiked drinks

Ava French: This place is the biggest SCAM in Boston. We were recommended to come and there was a $40 cover charge and the place was EMPTY at midnight. What a joke. The staff here is extremely rude. Watch out for the door guy in the video. He tried pushing us around and we weren’t making any scene & were sober. That’s why I started recording

e frizzie: so so so so so so so so SO beautiful! worth your while. the bathrooms are gorgeous aswell. setting makes me wanna bust a move.

Robbie Frost: I've been to a few shows here and it's becoming one of my favorite venues. The floor is great, with nice spots on either side to lean against a rail or pillar. The box seats are a really nice experience, very comfortable and a killer view.

MA: I would just like to give Jenn aka Big Mama a huge shout out. My friend had diabetes & needed some assistance & she went out of her way to accommodate us. Thank you for being a great person & helping when most wouldnt!

Jonathan Keller: It’s a scam. Selling mezzanine floor concert tickets with no view of the stage

Erin Rauch: The place is great! Staff is welcoming and friendly. Big enough for lots of people but didn’t feel overly crowded. My only complaint is that when were were leaving, my husband and son had nice big cups of ice water with them that they were given at the concessions, which was nice to have after being in a slightly crowded room cheering and singing along to the music. The first person at the exit said as long as it was just water it was fine to bring them. The lady we saw next just grabbed them from my husband and son and said we couldn’t have them. Didn’t even give us a chance to say anything. Really rubbed us the wrong way as it could have been handled much better. We’ll only be back if it’s an epic show.

Carolyn Turner: Barely of age “security” girls who look like they have never had a sip of alcohol, itching to kick people out. Shame on you

Ayan Chatterjee: Saw a lot of rock and metal musicians here: Slash, Periphery, Veil of Maya, Jason Bonham, Spiritbox, Intervals, After the burial, to name a few. The sound system is decent. Sometimes the vocals aren't properly balanced.

Lawrence Hernandez (Larry): as most reviews say try to get the floor tickets if you can try to go early to get the railing on the other floors. I got the floor tickets and was great for me. just remember floor best if not get there early for the rail.

Ben Wiener: They way oversold this show. I'm pretty tall and it was impossible to see.

Josi Araújo: Recentemente fui ao show de Djavan e gostei muito do lugar. Organizado, limpo, staff gentil. Nada a reclamar!

Natalie Cunningham: Terrible experience. I don’t even know where to begin with this place. The manager was extremely disrespectful when he came over to our table holding my ID in his hand after our waitress carded my friends & I after we placed our drink order. He had bent my license almost completely in half, claiming that “other licenses don’t do this” and “they aren’t supposed to bend this much.” He had to forcefully bend my license an extreme amount, just to try to prove some kind of point. To me, this was completely uncalled for. I’m 25 years old and was dressed very conservatively. By no means do I look like an underaged teen trying to use a fake ID. Now, I’m going to have to go out of my way & pay money out of my pocket to fix my license due to the idiotic actions caused by the manager. On top of that, both himself & the waitress did not offer any sort of compensation whatsoever. No sense of sympathy. 0/10 will not be coming back here.

Jamal Gaston: Wezzy f baby

Kristina Kowalik: Intimate venue. Was great!

John Caruso: Awesome venue!

John Kelley: Venue staff are 10/10. I hope they enjoyed hosting Infected mushroom.

Елена Кара: Always a pleasure to come for concert!

Antwan Baldwin: Food was great along with drinks. Lil Wayne concert 🔥🔥🔥

brian trivitt: House of rules

Trie Michaud: As a short person, if you don’t get there early to get rail space you should just leave if you were hoping to actually see the live band.

Shamika Blunt: Such a dope vibe!You have to visit the Foundation Room. It's a restaurant lounge connected to the venue. OMG!!!
