The security here is over the top and aggressive. They say that everywhere in the bar is a walkway and that you can’t stand there. They yell at you, shine flashlights in your face, and physically try to move you and keep telling you to move and are rude. We asked where we could move to and they told us to buy a table (there was plenty of space to stand). It feels like a scam to get you so stressed out that you spend $$$$ on a table. Why spend $20 on a drink so you can get hazed by aggressive security guards?

This is a perfect example of how screwed up this country is…this and the place across the street (bottled blonde) are complete ripoffs yet they were packed with total fools wasting money like it’s monopoly paper. The place sucks, is way too crowded, servers suck and the cost of a drink is insane! I’ll never step foot at this place again.

Decent club with decent nightlife entertainment.Customer service was good. Drinks were extremely pricey and basic.Overall was an OK experience.

This may be the worst take place I’ve ever been. The one bartender working was awesome but other than that, nothing but bad. There’s an admission charge that you don’t know about until you ask for your TAB. There’s another charge on top of that. So 3-5 drinks easily hits $100. There’s a reason this place is so disastrously empty. Do yourself a favor and go to any other bar on this corner

I was confused, I don't go to clubs often. So when I saw someone come up to our table and take drinks I was concerned and asked what are you doing. As I should too, like a bunch of drunk girls and then this random man comes to the table of course I'm curious what they hell you're doing. The man proceeded to tell me he was the manager, but I was confused even further because if he was the manager opening alcohol for promoters then why would he be drinking? I didn't have any issue and I was being fairly polite and they made it seem like they were going to kick me out for saying a word to them. Very hostile attitude and I think if they wanted to keep bringing customers out then they should just be nice and explain how things work and not just start giving everyone alcohol. I didn't even know if it cost anything so that was why I was initially confused because I didn't want to pay for something I didn't want. It was free alcohol but still the attitude could've been left at the door. Could've been as easy as explaining the process rather than hostility.

Was kicked out because one of their servers pushed me and I called her name she didn’t like so she said I pushed her and had me removed and when I tried to explain what happened I was told that I was a liar, and that they have to trust what their employees say, and not look into any of the facts on top of that shot of Casamigos Is almost $20 LMFAO at this place.. terrible part of my bridal trip

Very, very loud. I wouldn't spend more than 30 minutes here unless I want a headache the next day. Employees didn't appear to have ear protection. I hope they are well compensated for any potential health risks.

Vibes are great, drinks are weak. If you order a straight shot they mix it with simple syrup. I paid $30 for a "double" that didn't at all feel like a double.

First time in my life I've been denied entrance to a club. Was told it was due to the "no Jordan" policy. I had on dress jeans, a button down shirt, and Jordans. Here's the thing. If I'm not wanted in someone's business I don't really care and will just gladly go somewhere else, but have the balls to actually just say that to my face. What's the point of having me empty pockets, look me over, have be hold up my shirt and spin to check for weapons and THEN tell me it is because of my Jordans. Not like they came out of magic air when I was spinning. They were as visible on me as they were on the tons of people already wearing them inside the club. Best part about it to me is that legit FOURTEEN people that I counted when walking to next place had Jordans on INSIDE THE CLUB. So they clearly don't have that "no Jordan" policy for everyone. Funnier still is that they're not even smart enough to blur out the Jordans in their own insta posts. My 1 star isn't for the fact I didn't get in. I DGAF and gladly went to give my money to a different biz. The 1 star is for not having the balls to just be honest to my face. And rhe 1 star is also for the bouncers attitude.

Outrageously expensive drinks…..$32 for 1 Deep Eddys & Soda. Soooo would not reccomend. Go anywhere else in AZ. Criminal, go out of business or lower ur costs…..horrific.
This place deserves zero stars. Me and my group of friends went out last night to this place, and this was my first time ever getting kicked out of a so called "club". I was dancing with my friends when I noticed one of the security guards pushed into me and shoved me so hard because I apparently was in the way. I was on the side near the booths because there was no where else to stand. I turned around and politely asked the security guard to say "excuse me" or "coming through" the next time he tried to pass others. It's not that hard to have manners. Well apparently the security guard whispered some bullshit into a walkie talkie asking me to get escorted out. There about 5 different security guards trying to escort a woman who was 5'2". One of them had told me that if I didn't leave they would physically assault me and kicked me out. As a POC, I am not surprised that I am not the only one that experienced the same exact issue. The majority of others have been expressing that they noticed it's not POC or gay friendly at all. I immediately felt that when they made threats to me. There was even a group of black people in a booth beside us that said "She's with us, it's fine. She's not doing anything wrong." I just want to say thank you to my people that were standing up for me. We always gotta watch out for each other. After they tried to de-escalating the situation, the security guards were even angrier than before. They immediately started trying to block me off and separate me from my friends, and I started getting aggressive because I hate being cornered in. I don't know why they thought that was a good approach to de-escalate a situation, but it wasn't. You never know if someone has traumatic memories of unfortunate events of being isolated into certain areas, so I felt that was immensely inappropriate. We eventually were escorted out of the place after me and one other security employee were head to head in a verbal altercation. I'm also not surprised if this place goes out of business soon due to the lack of respect they have for customers. I hope they go out of business. You can't just randomly assault someone and think there will be no retaliation afterwards. I will NEVER be back!

I’ve got to say every time I come to HI FI I have a really bad experience. Whether I am being stalked by the security or simply I am not allowed in. I have had a bad experience the past three times I was there and honestly this was my last time. I am simply trying to get a good experience in Scottsdale but no luck so far.
