    DJs replayed songs and the club is emptied on a Saturday night. After 10:45 they charge 20$ per person, not worth the price.

    It was a okay atmosphere. People on stage were not it. It felt a little cringe. Better off at legacy or Club 54 in Pasadena

Couples who plan to stay for a while--or until closing--will especially enjoy sitting at the bar, as the venue transitions later in the evening into a more club-like atmosphere. Booths are often reserved for guests opting for bottle service during this time. The food is excellent, both in quality and presentation, and the service truly enhances the overall experience. The servers and bartenders are attentive, courteous, and highly professional, consistently ensuring guests feel well taken care of. Mesa is versatile enough to enjoy as a dinner destination or as a place to stay late into the night. Whether you're looking to eat and dance or simply relax and unwind, it's a great spot for couples and groups alike.

Same goes for their shitty sister location(s) Habana, which is just another thumbs-down disappointment of an establishment. Poor leadership. Trash food. Useless staff. Nothing has improved -- if anything, it's worse. Y'all should probably just close your doors. Keep it up though, you're well on your way to dropping below three stars. Absolute trash.

    Review for NYE special event. I was not paid nor am I receiving any form of compensation to leave…read morethis review, and I paid my own way into the event. Honestly - the reviews scared me. I'm an almost 30 something going into an Irvine club on NYE known for things getting stolen, bouncers being weird, and expensive drinks. I had LOW expectations. However, my experience was quite the opposite! Arriving: It was raining when we arrived around 10:15pm, and there was no line to get in. Bouncers were kind and efficient. I do wish they searched bags though - I was not asked to open my bag, which was concerning because bad people tend to do bad things on holidays. Atmosphere: It's a dark and medium/small sized nightclub. They had it dressed up a hint for NYE, but it seemed pretty standard to how I've seen it in photos. They had an outdoor area, but there was no music and it was pouring rain. While there was a tent outside, it was just too wet to even go out. Bathrooms: There are two small restrooms with appx 4-5 stalls each. There is a very sweet bathroom attendant who provides hand towels. The restrooms were clean and mostly smelled good. Drinks: I bought the all you can drink package, and I was scared that they'd pour light / not have what I wanted / have a limited menu / be too busy and ignore me / etc. This was NOT my experience. The tenders poured well, the drinks tasted good, and there was a good selection. I was always taken care of quickly with waits of less than 5 minutes. Noted, I tipped well for each drink. TIP YOUR BARTENDERS! Music: Very top 40 with a little EDM sprinkled in. As a millennial, I enjoyed the mix. Yeah it was loud, it's a nightclub. Everyone was dancing and enjoying themselves. The bouncers even pulled out a guy who was literally falling over drunk onto other dancers. I thought they cared for the situation well and with grace. NYE Festivities: Honestly, there weren't many. The club looked a slight bit decorated, and the party favors that were promised with our ticket we're SO limited. Yes, they said while supplies last... but I swear they handed out less than 20 noise makers for the whole club. They also promised champagne showers throughout the night as well as a complimentary champagne toast for the whole club at midnight. Neither champagne option was followed through on. I was also promised two dance floors, and there was clearly only one available. Other things: Seems like there may be some deferred maintenance in the building. The roof was HELLA leaky near the bathroom. They used cones to block it off, but the floor was soaked. Overall, I had a nice time. I removed the star for the lack of follow through on the NYE specific things that were promised to me on my ticket that were not delivered. I also removed the star due to the roof leaking heavily. Other than that, I thought it was a safe, fun, and enjoyable way to spend NYE.

    Solid 3.5 star. We came on a Friday night to see Dj Kim Lee (from Bling Empire). And no it was not…read moreinitially my idea to watch B.E. but my friend made me do so & he reallllly wanted to see her. Yeppp I ended up watching the entire season of B.E. Hence here we are! My friend booked online the day off the event for an Upper Level VIP Booth for $300 + tax/fees. We had a good time & of course with thanks to the alcohol too :) Music was not bad but I felt it was better towards the end of the night. Well, here's the quick run down --- Arrived by 10:45PM. No lines whatsoever & no hostess at the front. Just the security working out front & they walked us in to our VIP table. The main club room was at no more than 40% capacity but the smaller patio room was packed (more chill vibe, music was not my liking tho). We didn't get the Upper Level Booth cuz there were hardly anyone there that bought a VIP booth so they closed off all that section. So we were on the floor bout 3 tables away from the DJ booth. The choice of alcohol (priced at $300) we wanted was not available said our hostess. IMO - there was not a lot of bottle choices to begin with. So we had to pick something of a higher price & we ended up having to gett a decent bottle priced at $500. Otherwise if not, we all be having hangover the next day! Oh don't forgot that increase of bottle price doesn't include tax & gratuity, so will have to pay more than what was paid online. 3 lovely waitresses did come out with signs & bottle sparkles to our table. They were super sweet. We had water bottles & mixers. I forgot her name but our assigned waitress came to check on us through out the night & made our drinks as needed. Service was good. They also had 1 aerialist which seemed a bit outta place & unnecessary . DJ Kim Lee did not come on til 11:30PM and left by 12:30AM! Her set was a-ok but we made the best of it & enjoyed our time out. We almost stayed til the end but left around 1:30AM where there was practically no one on the dance floor. Few wore masks & most did not. So all I can stay there was plenty of room to dance all over the main room & no long lines waiting for drinks at the bar or even at the restroom!

Megan was so super cool, friendly and knowledgeable. She made it easy...she was straight forward with pricing and had great suggestions.

It is not a venue for music fans, it's a venue for old-school club-goers. They somehow have worked out a deal to get some really big dj names but their venue really can't support it. The dance floor is like 10ft across. They only have tables otherwise you're relegated to the outskirts of the venue (they keep you far away so their bottle girls have free access to the tables surrounding the dance floor). If you want to sit for a few minutes then be prepared to get there early and fight for the 2-3 tables that are free next to the entrance. Randoms people will likely walk over you and sit on top the couches that you're actively sitting on so don't get too comfortable. Better off driving 2 hours to a different city with a venue that understands edm fans. Basically this is just a basic nightclub. Bonus for free parking. But I would never come here to see my favorite artists after that first visit. Not unless they completely remove those tables from the dance door area.

    I chose this place to come out and celebrate my birthday, made reservations and let me say worst…read moredecision I could have made. Lets just say I made a yelp account just so I could right a review on this place. (Thats how you know it was that bad) The security staff treated us poorly with the exception of 2 or 3 guards. The main club promoter tried to make it up to us by giving us free entrance next time we came but why would we EVER want to come back to a place that gives you terrible service and is rude and disrespectful? I was accused for drinking alcohol inside my car (im 19 btw) and I was denied entrance into the club. I had not been drinking on the premises what so ever. And after I was OFFERED BOTTLE SERVICE AFTER ACCUSING ME OF UNDERAGE DRINKING. Im 19 they clearly knew this and STILL OFFERED it anyways. After treating us poorly, kicking us out, making us stand outside for almost 2 hours, they FINALLY let us meet the rest of our party inside. I only went in because i didnt want to ruin anyone else's night. If it was up to me I would've left. Point is I have never been treated so poorly by a business in my life untill this night. They ruined my BIRTHDAY and my entire clubbing experience. (This was my first time ever going to a club). If you are looking for a great time, and great service dont come to el parral. Save your time, money, and gas. Im not one to complain, I can usually put up with alot but this was just by far the worst service I have ever received. The one star is for those 2 security guards who tried to help me out. They were the best thing about this place. :)
