Cool atmosphere, clean bathrooms, and fast service. Music choice was very questionable and a $20 cover is pretty expensive. It was also a sausage party. Drinks taste good though. I'd come back on a different night and see if it was any different

Rudest security I’ve ever encountered. They checked our ID’s but made a snide comment about someone in our party not getting in, without any further explanation. (We were out for a birthday celebration but no one was conducting themselves poorly or seemed past the cutoff point..) They’d already charged half our party admission. Save your time and money and go somewhere else.

I had a great experience. The wait staff was wonderful and the security kicked me out within 2 minutes. I didn’t even look at them they just grabbed me and my friends and threw me out onto the street. Literally threw I hurt my wrist as I hit the curb. The 2 sips of the drink I had were amazing though.Vegetarian options: Great veggie burger but I only had one bite before I was thrown outWheelchair accessibility: Great wheelchairs

Security literally bent my friends ID so it wouldn’t scan but scanned just fine at the dispo down the street. Weird.

I have a couple things to say about The Rhino Room. To start, my friends and I were hesitant to come here after reading reviews about the bouncers "kicking people out for no reason". We didn't have anything to worry about. The bouncers were all professional, reasonable, and polite. If you're respectful of the people around you and not falling over everyone else, you won't have a problem here. Second, it's a really cool space. The disco balls, greenery walls, and neon signs were a total vibe. The bathrooms were super cute and very CLEAN. There's a water dispenser built into the wall adjacent to the dance floor so you don't have to wait at the bar for water. There was plenty of seating in the form of comfortable booths. We left to bar hop for a bit and came back because our groups consensus was that The Rhino Room and The Queer Bar had the best music of the places we went to but the drinks were way better at The Rhino Room. The Lychee Slushie was so good. Third, and lastly because it's not advertised, they have a coat and bag check which was great because it was rainy and cold. And there isn't a 10$ cover fee if you arrive before 10pm.

I was having a good night in the downstairs club area with a group of friends. Part of my group decided they wanted to go home, so I walked them out to say goodnight. When I went to re-enter, I was told I was “too intoxicated” to re-enter. (No security staff inside had escorted me out of the building for being “intoxicated”) I asked the front door security for a security manager, and was lied to by the guard checking ID’s (claiming to be the security manager) finally the security manager comes out and I plead my case, which came across as argumentative, and that was their reasoning for believing I was “intoxicated”. Who would not be defensive and or argumentative for being denied entry wrongfully? They could not give me a reason as to why they thought I was “intoxicated”, all they could say was that I was argumentative (for being WRONGFULLY denied entry.) If I was intoxicated as they claim, I should have been walked out by security. Apparently walking yourself out to say goodbye to friends is more than enough for them to deny entry. The Security staff is not trained, and the reviews clearly back that up. Don’t go here.

The security guys here are super unprofessional. They kicked me and my friend out randomly while we were just standing at one spot waiting for our friends using the bathroom.

Saturday night my three friends and I went to Rhino Room looking for a fun night. We got in and were dancing. When my friend and I (two girls) started kissing we immediately got kicked out. They grabbed us hard by our elbows and made us leave. They said we were falling over but we were able to walk out and speak calmly and level-headed with them. We were not so intoxicated that we couldn't keep our balance. Our friends were kissing guys in the same state as us and that was no problem, but two Indian girls kissing caused them to kick us out. We felt targeted and disrespected. Don't recommend going here, there's many better places to go for a good time that we went to afterwards!

Drinks were good, upstairs is chill. If I were to go back, it would be to chill upstairs.However, downstairs they have more security than the White House! It was awkward to be watched like a hawk in such a small room! It was hard to enjoy myself when we felt surrounded.Wheelchair accessibility: I noticed no elevator to the downstairs club. :(

the music was good and we had a great time, two girls out of our group got kicked out apparently for falling over while kissing. This must have been a misunderstanding because they weren't that drunk. We've been drinking but none of us were at that level. We tried to get back in after meeting them outside, and we said we thought the bouncers who kicked our friends out where homophobic as they were kissing men literally a few minutes before and it was no issue. As they were kicked out, they asked the bouncer to tell the other girls in our group what was going on. They told them they know who their friends were and would find us on their own. They simply did not. Then the bouncers at the front door we were talking to about this immediately said not to use the word "homophobic" as the bouncers were all gay and it reflects badly on "the establishment." 1. We don't care about the bar as a business 2. for the bouncer to tell us that we cannot use the word "homophobic" as queer women is ridiculous My point with this post is that there was no difference in the way my friends were acting with men they were with men and eachother. This bar says they're not anti lgbtq because the workers identify as such, but bias within the community exists especially when a work place is based on who we interacted with white people. For them to deny queer women what our experience was is not a good look, especially when they literally tell us to not say our opinion based on how it reflects on the bar is ridiculous and unprofessional.
I was very apprehensive when my friend recommended this spot. I haven’t heard great things and the google reviews didn’t paint a good picture. However, this is a clean and fun spot to go dancing! Quick service, lots of security, decent prices. I would recommend this spot to a friend.

Horrendous experience at the bar. Security is extremely rude and unprofessional. They kick people out at random and claim they are too drunk. The DD got kicked out and all he had was water! On top of that, you have to pay $10 for entry. Complete waste of money. I reccomend going over to the Comet. Avoid this one at all costs!

Went for a friends birthday and was having a decent time until a drunk person came up to me and started harassing me and I played it cool and didn’t engage but security ran up and kicked both of us out because the guy got in my face and they said both parties had to leave. Ridiculous way to be treated especially when security said, “I get ur sober but it’s our policy nothing we can do” not spending money here
