From my experience, each club has a certain«culture» about it. If this is true, this club’s culture involves making you wait in line for an excessive amount of time to generate hype, shoving and budging people to get in(really the only way to get in), and being cramped up too tightly to move while people blow their cig smoke in your face. Not to mention the putrid odor of sweat and non-deodorized armpits falling in waves from the cramped guests around you. I came here at around 12:30. My friend really wanted to try it so we waited 45 minutes outside, even though the music from outside sounded like absolute shit(beat too slow to dance to). We finally got in after being shoved, pushed, cursed at, and having watched dozens of people budging in front of us because they were friends with security. When we asked someone why they wouldn’t wait in line like the rest of us, we got pushed and basically told to «fuck off.» When we finally got in, the music was horrendous(as I suspected), the coat check was full(«just dance with your coats on,» advised the coat check woman), and the entrance fee was still $ 15. Dancing with my coat on in a club filled with a bunch of budging, pretentious, and straight up smelly-as-fuck assholes to lifeless music was just not going to happen. We noped the fuck out, went to Nesta down the street, got in immediately, and had way more fun there. This club is where club music goes to die. Trust me. Go elsewhere.

Hmm what can I say about Monday nights at this place? Blvd 44? Nah. Boulevard to hell. If I could give it zero stars I would… But I can’t. Too bad. The DJ has a weird obsession with Drake and music that you can’t dance to. The atmosphere is very weird. Unless you have a job as a drug dealer or a rapper interested in distributing your mixtape, I would not recommend. If that does happen to be your line of work then by all means go and indulge in the watered down alcohol, wannabe gangsters protecting their $ 100 bottles, and various selections of grillz for your viewing pleasure.

HORRIBLE! This is the most terrible club i’ve ever been in my entire life. Security man is mean, and the place is empty but the people who in charged made u standing in line, in freezing temperature. Do not come to this place because u will be unhappy and depressed for 7days afterwards.

After some time to reflect, I have mixed feelings about this venue. Let’s start off with the good. I was here Saturday night and it started really well. The décor, music, and wait staff(especially our server — Nancy) were great. We got our bottles promptly and they continued to refill the chasers/mixers as needed. DJ was good also and ramped up the night pretty well. Now onto the bad. At the end of our night, my party and I were leaving. About half of us were already outside the door and the bouncers suddenly rushed in(I believe there was a fight brewing). I saw the individuals dragged out, but then after that, one the members of my party was dragged out in a headlock with his hands up(no resistance). This is where I have a problem. I’ve been working at a bar in NYC for the past 8 years so I have much experience dealing with rowdy/overzealous people. The way things were handled by the bouncers was dangerous. If somebody is clearly not resisting or even simply mouthing off, no physical contact is required – an escorted walk out suffices. This is especially true because my friend just wanted to get his coat from coat check. None of this, should have required me to pull off the bouncer as there was no resistance. In addition, I view this as a case of collateral damage because my other friend was shoved out of the way by one of the bouncers in the club trying to get to the fight they were trying to stop behind us. While I understand the immediacy of stopping a fight, you do not shove bystanders(and at the very least if you do, you check on the bystanders quickly). If I count correctly, there were 3 bouncers and 1 manager there so there were more than enough people to smooth a bump out. I hope that Blvd44 gets the security quality to the same quality of its front of the house staff. I’d like to recommend this place to out of towners, but until this is fixed, I say go at your own risk because you can start your night off right but end it in a sour way.

This place sucks. The DJ plays a 40 second clip of a song b4 he changes to a new song, the bar was uninviting, dark, small, there was NO dance floor, the booth for bottle service was sub-sub-sub-par. The bottles were(as always) overpriced, the clientele did not match the image they were trying to portray to the public. The staff were all dressed well in suits and black and white attire, the clientele were pretty much dressed in semi runners and t-shirts. Due to the bottle service area being a common area free for all, my drinks were spilled over me by the people dancing on the(as I said) nonexistent dance floor. Their layout was so messed up it was like they asked a 4 yr old to design it. Their patio was also poorly designed. Granted it rained which lead everyone on the patio to be under the canopy but they don’t seem to have any contingency plans for inclement weather. I would suggest staying away from here. Just they dress up the outside to look like a Ferrari doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a Hyundai engine inside… buyer beware

This was the worst place on the strip. My bachelor party group was staying at the Hotel 10 next door. Thought it would be nice convenient to go here. This place was dirty, smelled, and the manager at the time, the one with the broken hand. Yeah, you; was a complete a$$. First he was going to charge us a bottle to stay at the place because we didn’t want our table that was under the mezzanine, and behind some curtains. Uh, who want’s that? Then he changed his mind and said 2 bottles to stay now. After we just bought 12 vodka shots. Reason we bought a round because he held my credit card and ID for about half an hour. BS. Thumbs down and broken at this place. Now I know why his hand was broken. I wanted to give him a matching pair. Thanks douchebag, we found a cool joint with hot chicks at WOOD35, and spent loads of $$$$$.

Went out with the ladies on a Monday night. Bottle prices were fair($ 180 for a 40 oz of Beefeater). Staff were very friendly, manager Amro put a lot of effort into ensuring that all groups were accommodated appropriately. Washrooms and club were kept very clean throughout the night, I only wish the outdoor terrace was furnished.

I will give this establishment credit for their outreach. They do care about their reputation, and any potential discourse surrounding this. That said, the service standard was substantially better, in that the drinks were prepared well, and that the staff was much more attentive to patrons. There is a very nice bottle service area as well, and(during summer) an outside terrace. The security inside still seemed a bit ‘intimidating’ but you need this to mitigate any unsavory situations, I’m sure. The only point of contention here was that the bouncer(not the manager) at the entry point was still a bit rude, but that seems to come with the territory. All things considered about service, it is a very decent atmosphere, with great décor.
