| - Like several of the other previous reviewers, I had been to the earlier incarnation of Krave when it was around the corner from Planet Hollywood on the strip, though I don't have particularly fond memories of the place (aside from the shot boys--those I liked... a lot). Aside from the location, the old spot didn't have much going for it.
That said, I REALLY want this place to succeed. It's in the same complex as Drink & Drag, which was super busy on the Wednesday night that my friend and I visited (we were headed home the next afternoon--otherwise we might've gone on a Thursday or Friday instead).
The space is utterly enormous. At the moment, aside from the massive lobby, there's only one room open which is sort of just a generic "club" feel with cool lights and a DJ and some VIP booths tucked away along the edges. There are also some random go-go boys dancing at various spots both in the lobby and in the dance... room (or whatever they call it).
The drinks aren't terribly expensive, particularly if you're on the guest list via the website--the night we visited, not only did we get in for free because of that, but we also got special 2-for-1 drink wristbands, which meant that two giant vodka/sodas were something like $6 or $7.
There's plenty of space to move around here if you're claustrophobic--but that's also the downfall of the place, particularly on weeknights when it isn't particularly busy. Let's hope it'll build up some steam as the owners put more money into it.
