I made the horrible mistake of throwing a party at Crimson with my coworkers. I made reservations for bottle service. When I arrived at 11 the place wasn't even open yet. I was the only person waiting in the bottle service line, but the regular guest line got in faster than I did. I work with several women and was having just a few men attend, but I was told that since I was getting bottle service, the first 8 men who came and used my name at the door would get in free. There were 4 men and the staff only let one of them in for free. Then 2 of them weren't allowed in the VIP area until they tipped the bouncers $20 each, after already paying $20 at the door. After that, it really went downhill. The place got crowded and people were spilling drinks everywhere. One of my coworkers was wearing heels and she slipped and fell. Two bouncers came over and grabbed her as we were helping her get up. We tried telling them that the floor was slippery and that's why she fell, but they wouldn't listen. The female bouncer then put my friends hands behind her back like she was being arrested and dragged her out of the VIP section and down the stairs. We were all appalled and one of my friends went outside to talk to them. She asked for the manager. She told him very politely that the situation was handled wrongly and that if they had to kick her out, they should have let her get her bag and walk her out instead of treating her like she was a criminal. The manager said he disagreed with her and then said that she was also barred from the club!! PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT BOOK A PARTY HERE! The staff is rude, classless, and they don't treat VIP's like they are really VIP. I will never go here again, it was a waste of money.
Pros: decor is okay.
Cons: terrible management, staff
