I would recommend staying away from this place. As other reviewers have said, the security here has some serious power issues and eventually your night is going to get ruined for no reason. The second time I went here it was getting really hot inside so I went out to have a smoke and cool off. As I attempted to go back inside the bouncers wouldnt let me back in. When I asked why they said "The owner said not to let you back in." I said "Youre joking with me right?" They said no. I asked to speak with the owner because there must be some kind of mistake. They told me the owner had left and there was no-one I could talk to. To make matters worse, I had gotten a ride up there with friends and my phone had died so now I had no way of getting ahold of anyone because of these tyrannical a-holes. I ended up sitting outside for 2 hours waiting for my friends to come out and when they finally did they were like "Where have you been?! Weve been worried sick about you?!". I explained what happened and they looked at me with disbelief. The idea that someone could get thrown out of a bar without actually being thrown out was inconceivable to them. One of my friends went over and asked them why they wouldnt let me back in and got the same answer. My friend said to him "So Is it normal business practice for you all to kick sober people out of the bar on their Birthday that did absolutely nothing?". The bouncer replied with "Im just doing my job". My friend said "Well youre not very good at it you piece of S***!" and we left. To be honest, I couldntve cared less about not being let back in. The fact I came with friends and wasnt allowed to get a hold of them to leave was the major problem. I wasnt having a very good time and as others have said this place is disgusting. Bathrooms are horrendously dirty, for some reason all the guard rails in this place are sticky like a 5 year old with too much candy in his mouth drooled all over them, the A/C never seems to work which means you can go in with a white shirt and walk out with a black one because everyone is sweating so much and apparently dont know what a shower is and forget trying to get something to drink from the slow and lazy bartenders. I seriously have no idea how this place is still in business. Do yourself a favor and find somewhere else to go. This place isnt worth the potential headache.

Oh my where to begin!? A group of us purchased tickets to the "Aaron Lewis" show @ Dallas Bull ,Oct. 19, 2013 online for $20.00 a piece. You would think there would be a different line for those who purchased tickets in advance, but this was not the case. We waited 45 minutes in a line wrapped around the building. Security snatched my friends energy drink out of his hand, dumped it out, and motioned the "No No" sign with his finger as if he was correcting a 2 year old. The arrogant bully then walked over to an elderly man (60ish) behind us and snatched his bottle of water from him. The elderly man ask security, "Why can I not drink my water outside?" The security guy responded, "Cause I just took it away". We wanted to leave at this point but stuck it out cause we were stupid and bought tickets in advance. PLUS, we already PAID for parking. Once inside we went over to the bar to order drinks. It took us an hour (NO JOKE) waiting in line to get our drinks. There was approximately 75 ppl at every bar waiting to order. There was only ONE bartender at each bar! A group of 8 only made one trip to the bar due to an hour wait time. Sales on alcohol could have been at least 5 times what it was! I watched so many ppl/grps. give up and walk away from the bar. Staff the bar on busy nights! You made sure to staff the parking-lot with attendants to collect money! I was standing at the rails by the 2nd story dance floor and grabbed the rail sticking my hand in numerous pieces of gum that has been gathering for awhile. I took a picture cause I was amazed at the amount of gum. Hope I have the option to post it. I will not visit the Dallas Bull again. It is nothing like the old Bull..

We went on Thursday night which was ladies night. Not being a lady I expected to pay a cover and was very happy to find out it was a mere $5. The club is nice with 2 floors. The bottom being what youd expect for a Country music club (line dancing) and the top being hip hop dance music. That is where my nice comments about Dallas Bull stop.The staff is HORRIBLE the security guards there are sad rent a cop rejects who find some kind of sport in pretending their "authority" somehow is impressive. I found this out when they took an underage friend of mine off the floor to give him a spot sobriety test..I mean WTF...this is a club not a police state. Then I asked one of the other security people where they were taking him and he tells me "Dont worry about it." and I reply "Yeah but they just took him outside Id like to know whats going on" to which I simply got a "So?!" as a reply. I would not be upset if that place went bankrupt and every one of those oversized apes were sent back to the back room in a dirty fast food join where they all belong.

I was so excited to come to the Dallas bull. Once I arrived and entered, I immediately regretted every decision to come to this bar. The security staff is SO rude and unprofessional. I was so disgusted with how they treat people. My feet were barely touching the dance floor and no drink was in my hand, yet I was yelled at multiple time to "get off the dance floor if Im not dancing." Screw that. I cant even enjoy my night out without being yelled at like a two year old. Then, they had the upstairs closed and were accepting payment to enter the top floor (a large payment I might add). By 1:30 no one is up there yet there still forcing the huge crowd to used the bars they have downstairs. We waited 30 minutes for ONE beer. Ridiculous. There are 2 bars upstairs, I think, yet making everyone wait for drinks downstairs. Ill never be coming back, and neither will the group of 20 I attended with.

A ex, Cheryl Chancey got physical pushing me a couple times on December 11th. I went over and made remarks, after her rubbing different guys from Plenty Of Fish in my face over a period of time. They kicked me out for a month. I go back 2 1/2 months later, and they ask me to step outside and give me a speach. Said women complain about me. Women from my past not wanting me there! So I go tonight after 3 1/2 months of not going. I get asked to step outside again. Go through some of the same stuff I have already been told. If it was not for all the people I know up there Id let the women from my past have that place. Next time I go, I wonder if Ill get the boot. LOL
