| - I've visited a few clubs on the strip in Vegas (Pure, Tao, Tryst) and so far, XS is my favorite. Let's just say that for the most part, XS lives up to the hype.
BOTTLE SERVICE:
We were there this past Saturday celebrating a couple of birthdays and had booked a table for bottle service through one of the promoters. Prices for bottles start at $450 (for rum); starting prices for vodka is $460 (for Absolut). We were a group of nine ladies and our minimum was three bottles (one bottle for every three). Factor in tax/gratuity and our bill came to $1,800 (or less, if you're going to be cheap on gratuity). Don't know if bottle prices are lower on less busy nights.
WARNING ABOUT BOTTLE SERVICE SEATING:
Ok, so we were led by our host to a tiny table and were told this is our spot for the night for our group of nine. We were sandwiched in between two other tables. Since the tables to the right and left of us were already occupied, there were only enough "seats" left to fit four of us. So, I refused to sit and asked the host to find us another spot as I am paying for three bottles. I felt that I should be accommodated for our group of nine.
We were told that it was a very busy night and they are filled to capacity. He tried to get us relocated to a cabana (outside) but was told none was available. After standing around for a good 20 mins trying to work something out, he said that if we accept the table, he will come and find us later on to relocate us if a larger table opens up. This was a load of BS I think, but we got tired of arguing and decided to stay, since we wanted to get our party on.
Soon after, the table to our left cleared out, so we took over their seats...providing a chance for my whole group to sit and drink. An hour later, another party showed up and took that table, but we got lucky again as the party to our right was leaving. Had both parties stayed, our tiny little area would not have been able to accommodate our group. This was the only negative aspect out of the whole night.
I felt that XS misrepresented bottle service seating. The promoter surprised me with a beautiful (and complimentary) birthday cake later on...so that kind of made me forgive the little snafu. Well, that and the mixed drinks helped to mellow out my mood. BTW, there was a stripper pole right in front of our table, so my friends were able to take advantage of that and showcase their inner stripper.
If you experience the same runaround we did, just be firm, polite, but STAND YOUR GROUND. ;-P
PROS:
- Beautiful and spacious club
- Diverse and good-looking crowd
- Great music (mash-up, top 40s, house, hip hop)
- Lines for bathroom not as bad as other clubs
- Professional, friendly, and good-looking staff
- Plenty of stripper poles located throughout the club
- For those that opt out of bottle service, you can sit at any table as long as the party hasn't arrived to claim their reserved table; if they never come, you can sit there pretty much all night
CONS:
- Bottle service seating experience
- Our waitress only came by the table 3-4 times the whole time we were there
- Lines for general admission, guestlist and table reservations are VERY unorganized. We had bottle service and pretty much had to battle our way to the front of our line to get a host's attention. Look your best as they will pick and choose who to address based on your looks (which is the case at most clubs in Vegas).
Normal admission is $20 for ladies and $30 for men. All my girls and I had a great time and agree that XS is definitely worth repeat visits when visiting Vegas.
