What People Are Saying About Rocbar

In Short – Everything about the $2.5 million ROCBAR in Bayou Place screams rock and roll. From the decadent NYC-style red and black design to the the 60-foot bar, sexy bartenders and live music stage with a 20-foot video wall, this downtown bar and music venue appeals to a lively young crowd that likes to get a little wild. Local and touring acts regularly take the stage while resident and visiting DJs keep things humming the rest of the time.

This place is Great
by Chrissylynn324 at Citysearch
Here's the thing. The people that are putting down this place obviously didnt know what they were getting themselves into when they went. There are very few places that I have ever been to that will play SoD and Slipknot all night. I love this place, I love dancing on the platforms, I love the staff , this place is awesome. If you are looking for a place where you can wear whatever you want, dance to rock music, and watch the bartender spit fire while girls swing above his head, this is the place for you. If you are over the age of 30 and cant handle the rock life, dont bother.
- Pros: music, people, platform dancing, awesome staff
- Cons: line to get in

Treat customers like shit
by LindaJS123 at Citysearch
This is a nice space BUT the management and people who work there are not professional. I have been with a large group at least twice, spent well over $1000 on bottles and shots, and had a girl in our group get molested by two customers this last time. Even more appalling is that we were the ones that got told to leave. I pleaded to file a complaint with the manager and got nowhere. I was led to believe that I was waiting for the manager outside the front doors with the bouncer for over 20 minutes, and no one showed up. I even asked for a number to call in the morning, but the door guys claimed not to know it. The main problem I have, other than having a friend get molested and being physically abused by a 300 lb. bouncer, is that we were paying customers, paid for their salary/tips/etc that night, and were treated with extreme disrespect. Apparently the bouncer had a personal relationship with the perverts that night. Regardless of why things happened the way they did, it was extremely disappointing to be treated like that by the club after giving it so much business. Needless to say, we, and everyone we know or come across, will not be giving this place business again until the name is changed and management has been taken over by someone with half a brain. It's a shame.
- Pros: nice space
- Cons: people/workers

Don't Bother!
by Leslie022 at Citysearch
Although it seemed to be a pretty slow night for them it was still impossible to get the snotty bartenders attention. I won't be going back and dont recommend it. And if you care... the bathrooms are disgusting!
- Pros: NONE
- Cons: terrible service!
