Got in free on the Guest List to see Mimosa here and was pretty stoked. Being from the south, Im not used to dressing up like its prom to see EDM....its actually solely about the music for us. Apparently wearing heels to see your favorite DJ is what people do here. Anyway, the drinks were way over priced for the quality. I liked the size of the dance floor and the vibe of the place. The quality of the sound and lights were also on point. The staff seemed fairly decent and were quick to stop any violence that broke out. Again, being from Louisiana, we dont fight in EDM clubs so....not sure what that was about. My BIGGEST issue was that THE CLUB STOLE MONEY from us. We spent roughly $134ish on drinks (rediculous) at this bar and put that amount on our debit card. Woke up the next day only to see an additional SEPARATE payment of $162 had been charged to our account that we did NOT authorize or sign/see a receipt for . Tried calling the club to handle it outside of the bank. They gave us the run around saying the manager would call us back. After two weeks passing and no such call or concern about our rather large fraud issue coming from the manager we had to file the charge as a fraudulent claim against the club. Had this issue been resolved in a suitable and concerning matter on their end we might be going back, but not anymore. Im definitely looking into friendlier places to go. These people need to learn what the heck customer service means. Also, maybe not rob people blind.

Bassmnt has given me my worst concert experience ever and Ive been to plenty of shows over the years. They advertised a Post Malone concert and it was very hyped with tickets up to $100 each selling out fast. But Post Malone came on at 1:30 and played 4 songs for only 10 minutes. Whether this was at the fault of the artist or the venue does not excuse why bassmnt is a shady business. I left a complaint on their Instagram and I was blocked. My girlfriend complained on Instagram and Twitter and was blocked on both. Ive seen other people complaining about the same issue. Dont try to hide your mistake bassmnt. Own up to the fact that you scammed people. Everyone who paid to be at that show deserves a full refund and an apology.

Dont go to the "concerts". Went to see a Post Malone "concert". It started at 9pm and Post didnt go on until 1:30am. He proceeded to play 4ish songs. This would have been fine if they had stated that it was more of him showing up for 10 minutes, but no, they decided to charge $30-$100 depending on when you got your ticket. Ended up standing for 4.5 hours listening to each DJ play the same songs as the others in their sets. By the time Post actually got on, it was impossible to see him because people were climbing on the fixtures and each others shoulders obscuring the view. In short, the venue really screwed everyone over by advertising it as a concert and charging as much as they did. It just felt really sloppy.

Horrible experience!! My friend and I were mistreated by the bouncers, mishandled, and disrespected. On top of that, it was a very bad environment with very ratchet clientele. Also, there was under age drinking going on left and right due to the corrupt nature of the bouncers. Not a good way to build a reputation for such a new club. Never again will I come here! And finally we were tricked into buying tickets online when we had 5 people come up to us and give us free tickets. We could not get a refund on the tickets when we stayed for a total of 15 minutes before we left.This place is not worth anyones time and money and I will be letting all my friends know.

If I could give it no stars I would. It is my least favorite place on all of the west coast. I have worked at clubs for years, and the way these people run things is shameful. A friend of mine was assaulted, and then kicked out. They claimed both parties had to leave, but I saw the guy get brought right back in... Its a boys club, and if your not on the in watch your back.... I would never go back, even if they comped us and didnt kick my friend out.... Tis was the icing on a gross string of cake I have eaten every time I go to this club......... Dont waste your time,.

My boyfriend and I had a great time here. The tickets were super cheap for really big EDM musicians. We saw Cazzette. I suggest buying online in advance. We got into the club pretty quickly. We went early and it wasnt very crowded at first. Its a really beautiful space. Later it was super, super crowded and we were by the walk way so we kept being bumped but no one was rude or anything. Wear comfortable shoes there is absolutely no place to sit. We had a really nice time. The drinks were expensive of course but thats with any club. I cant wait to go back!

Beware this place. My girlfriend and I went with some friends to go see Fetty Wap and arrived at 10:30pm. We stood at the front of the stage for 3 hours waiting for Fetty to come on, and at 1:30am, he still hadnt started. By that time, 2 of our friends phones had been stolen, so we got over it and left. I guess the gimmick of this place is to have the artists perform just before 2am so that the audience will buy as much alcohol before the curfew, followed by a half-ass set by whoever is performing there. This place is sleazy as hell. Dont waste your money.

First of all Im not an avid google reviewer, but for this establishment Ill give it a exception. After standing in line for 4 hours in a half (9pm-1:30am)and being in a crowd full of underage kids, I couldnt stay at this night club any longer. Just to find out Post Malone only performed for a 10minute set with unfinished songs (was only paid to perform 10 min.) My drinks were watered down and extra pricey! This club is money hungry. My fist and LAST time here. False advertisement. & to top it off Bassmnt blocked me from social media. Very un professional.

Great building, lighting, mood. Near plenty of parking spaces if driving and uber/lyft worthy! Two main dance areas: main(drum and bass artists w bit of EDM) and a pure rap/hip hop space. Cons: Main dance floor - weird table setup makes the floor unstructured and weird Rap - maybe a one day thing (DJ kept changing song every 10 seconds which sucks especially when everyone come back to the floor and prevents any kind of flow building note: we tried many times to be patient). PS: Didnt try out the bar or drinks. So cant give that view

Absolute garbage. the drinks are on the most expensive side(even for downtown). The staff is dismissive, careless, and down right rude. The talent they hire here are borderline terrible, constantly changing the volume on accident and messing up transitions on multiple occasions with multiple DJs. On top of that, the "dress code" only applies to guys so if you planned on wearing shorts so that you dont sweat your butt off, try again. I will never return to this place and Ill make sure nobody else does either.
