Are people still talking about Hakkasan or are we waiting for the next big thing to open already?
Saw Calvin Harris here a few weekends ago and was lucky enough to get entrance for our group comped, so I'm keeping this review with that in mind. Seeing as how it had just opened, men's entry fee was $200. Yikes.
Pros:
-The lighting and DJ visuals
-Tiesto has his own custom box he spins from. He's taking a break from Ibiza and will be playing at Hakkasan all summer.
-Killer lineup of DJs
-Drinks are good/stiff and there's a few bars available. Not too packed.
-Bathrooms.
Cons:
-There's a lack of an apparent theme
-It's not that big, actually, especially compared to Marquee or Tryst (or maybe I just have a bad recollection).
-Other than the amazing DJs here, no wow factor to distinguish it from the other big name clubs
-Stairs. Everywhere. Drunk girls in heels, beware.
