Good music, but drink prices doubled later in the evening

by htowndancer

The drinks started at a reasonable price, but before midnight, the drink prices doubled on our bills. Although it was good music (live band as well as DJ), paying double for drinks compared to prices earlier in the evening put a damper on our good time. Next! Plan on coming here to dance, and go elsewhere to get your drink on... unless you plan on sipping the same drink all night.

• Pros: Good music
• Cons: Drink prices doubled as evening moved on

Cool during the week, but I wouldn't go on a Fri. or Sat.

$.50 beer on Wednesdays is great and they usually have a live jazz band as well. Thursdays are good too. During the week, it actually is a lounge wher you can play pool, throw darts, drink, dance, eat, and everything you would expect. On the weekend, though, it tries to turn into a trendy nightclub and it fails.

WEAK. JUST WEAK. SAVE UR TIME & $

by lmaobch

OK, LET'S START BY SAYING THAT THERE ARE TONS OF PLACE TO GO TO ON THE WAY TO THIS JUNK HOLE. SO, DON'T EVEN GO THAT FAR DOWN MONTROSE. THIS PLACE NOT ONLY HAS AN ODOR EVERYTIME I HAVE BEEN THERE - BUT THE ACT AS EXPECTED FOR SUCH A WASTEFUL VENUE. THEY SAY THE HOTTEST DANCE FLOOR AND WHAT THEY MEANT IS THE STINKY-EST DANCE FLOOR. VALET, TO THE BOUNCERS - & BARTENDERS ALL NEED TO JUST STAY @ THE LOUNGE & NOT INFEST ALL THE OTHER HOT SPOTS. TRASH NEEDS TO STAY @ THE LOUNGE. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCES EVERYTIME I GO THERE. (WHICH HAS ONLY BE 5 TIMES) I WILL NEVER GO BACK AGAIN. THAT'S FOR SURE. SAVE UR TIME & MONEY! DON'T VALET, DON'T UPSET THE LOSERS AT THE DOOR THAT CALL THEMSELVES BOUNCERS, DON'T TRY TO GET ONE OF THE UGLY BARTENDERS TO SMILE AND ACT PERSONABLE, DON'T EXPECT THE MANAGER TO ACTUALLY DO HIS JOB, AND DON'T EXPECT THERE TO BE ANY GOOD DJS. HA! THE BEST DJS IN HOUSTON ARE NOT AT THE LOUNGE. ESP. NOT DJ RED. THIS IS NOT NYC OR MIAMI. IT'S HOUSTON. GET SOBER AND GET THAT PLACE IN SHAPE OTHER WISE IT IS GOING TO GET SHUT DOWN.

• Pros: DON'T GO.
• Cons: DON'T GO.

Decent place to hang out

by ransal

Mixed crowd, bouncers at the door trying to make money. Make sure you follow the dress code (No sneakers) or else you will end up paying $10 -$20 extra to the bouncers on top of the cover. Decent drinks and dance floor.

not satisfied

by ruggedgal

First time I went to the Lounge, I had a great time. I had about 10 people with me. The next time I planned to go was for my birthday and despite their advertisements for "birthday specials" which are posted on their website and in the club, nobody was available to give me information. Nobody returned my phone calls or emails. I was surprised that a business would not want to increase their clientele or want repeat business from such a large group. False advertisement, unreturned messages and emails leads me to the conclusion that if you don't desire proper courtesy than this place is for you, otherwise guys I'd save my money and go elsewhere!
