| - More like 3.5.
I went in here with really high expectations, resulting from hype from both friends and the insanely long line that moved at a snail's pace. It just HAD to be THAT good, right?? But once inside, I was mildly disappointed. Not by the decor (don't hate me yet!), of course, because it is absolutely gorgeous. George Costanza would go gaga over this place -- it's like completely DRAPED in velvet.
There were plenty of tables (though most were unoccupied...), the waterfall is quite something to gawk at, and some of the go-go dancers were half-decent (hey, it's Vegas, so I kinda expect their go-go dancers to be a bit more in shape than your average American college chick). However, there was definitely insufficient bar-space (the crowd at the bars is usually 3-4 people thick, if that makes any sense), the dance floor was itsy bitsy, and most of all, the music played was probably top 40, which included many songs not considered dance music (as opposed to hip hop)! Come on, mister dj, seriously?
To top things off, one of my friends was getting his buzz on and dancing, as one should in a club. But for some strange reason, this was seen as unacceptable (he was not hitting on any girls, btw) and he was promptly escorted out by the bouncers for being "too drunk." WTF is that. Apparently, Tryst comes with their own army of party poopers. Poo on you, Tryst. Poo.
