Do not come here because they take away your IDs based on their assumptions and make you call sheriffs department to verify it. At the end, you won't get an apology and you get embarrassed in front of whole casino. Inexperienced workers, who call themselves securities, act like they are officers but in reality they probably never got to work with police department so they just harass innocent people. That is their highlight of the night, thinking they found someone with a fake id. Luckily, actual officers were fast and pleasant to work with. read more

I mean, if you're looking for a last minute spot to get drunk and ratchet with locals...then this is the place to be. Let's just say, I had to keep reminding myself, "you aren't in Vegas..." The entrance is cool looking, except the fact that they had 10 security guards standing outside it. This did not help me feel safer, if anything I questioned even going in, but my brother in-law insisted we go in since Peek was too pricey for bottle service. So here we go... On Saturdays, they charge an entrance fee of $20 for guys and girls are free. Once you walk in, you can feel how small this place is. Immediately to the left you will find the only bar in the club. Directly in front of you they have maybe 5 "VIP" tables and a couple go-go dancing stages. Behind that is the DJ booth. This place is nothing special. I probably would not return for a second visit, merely because it smells like vomit, the DJ sucks and transitioning between songs and the vibe just isn't there for me. You just can't go from playing ratchet rap music, to a slow country song...no, no, no, no, no. Who does that? I would have to say, spend the extra $20-50 dollars to go to Peek, that place at least looks like and feels like a club ready to party. read more

My first time here ! It was okay for a good night out .... nice time ! Good crowd, everyone having fun and dancing ! No drama just drunks dancing it off! -Saturday night, pretty dead though! Music was ok! I love house music so that was awesome to hear!! The dancers, looks like they hate their job!!! So , it was a bit funny to watch. The drinks were good!! Um... men pay $20.00 coverage , Ladies are free! If I was back in Tahoe, I would try different spots and if you find nothing, come to this spot! read more

By no means a Las Vegas club but, for a small town it always seems to be packed! The music is generally pretty good and the prices are reasonable. There is no restroom in the actual club but, getting in and out is pretty quick. We come to this club pretty much every time we come to Tahoe, always fun. read more

I am sitting here with 15 of my friends right now for a bachelor party. We are in the venue and it's horrible because... 1. We bought a table and the servers do nothing for you. Good luck getting drinks even though you paid for a table 2. They don't tell you, but you can't bring people to your table. 3. They kick people out even though there is room at your table and surrounding tables (see my picture) 4. The tables are far from the dance floor 5. They don't have bathrooms in the club. You have to literally leave the club and walk a bit to the bathroom. 6. The area with the tables does not have one speaker. So you have to go to the dance floor to hear the music. 7. Go somewhere else read more

Opal Ultra Lounge - Not crowded at OUR table and they kick OUR friends out - Lounges Near Me - Lake Tahoe, Nevada

This place preys on NYE tourists and takes advantage of them. And they can, because they pretty much had a monopoly on the nightclub scene. We did the whole $50 pass for 3 clubs on New Year's Eve deal, but it was such a pain in the ass to get in and out of that we never left this one. Incredibly long line to get in even though it was early. Get this - the only restrooms available are OUTSIDE of the club in the casino area, and to get back in, you have to wait in line again. The bouncer rudely told me to get back in line with everyone else when I asked him if I could have a hand stamp or bracelet or something to get back in after having to pee. A few girls in the restroom told me that their guy friends just used the potted plants inside the club because it was so impossible to get back in. Nasty, I know, but what can you expect? I wasn't equipped like a guy, unfortunately, and my restroom trip took me 30 minutes. The bar consisted of a wall of people, and they were obviously not equipped to handle a NYE crowd. My friend tried to order a bottle of vodka for everyone, even though their bottle service was $$$. They forgot about him for a long time and finally brought a bottle of Skyy (they said it was the highest quality they had, even though he was going for higher) and gave him a tray and mixers to bring out to us. He missed the new year countdown as a result. You'd think that if someone was willing to drop serious cash on a bottle of Skyy, they'd make him a priority. I had a blast that night, but not at all because of the club, but because I had 20 friends there with me. Sadly, there aren't many other options. read more

We ended up in Opal after an evening of casinos and drinking because there was no cover for women. Loving it already. The place was a bit slow, but we didn't care. We danced and attracted other people to the dance floor. We were invited to the VIP lounge with it's cool sofas and hookah bar vibe. We met cool people, had great conversations, great drinks and didn't leave until about 2:30 (no last call in Nevada!) It's not as crowded as Blu, the other club in Montbleu, but it's not stiflingly hot and you actually have room to move. You don't have a bunch of unknown sweaty bodies pressed around you. It's a chill place, which was a great way to wind down the evening. They also play pretty much every Lady Gaga and Katy Perry song in existence. Take that how you will, but I could find that in any club in the Castro. read more

Opal Ultra Lounge - Lounges Near Me - Lake Tahoe, Nevada

Came here on a Friday night with a bunch of girls while our bf's gambled in the MontBleu casino floor. After reading up on their website, it seemed like a chill place to go and had to check it out. Upon entering we had to pay 10 per girl, sucks, but girl drink free all night on Fridays at Opal, so we couldn't complain. The venue is simple. VIP tables surronded the small dancefloor while larger VIP rooms are along the walls and upstairs. The bar had seating areas and bar stools taht overlooked the dancefloor. The bartenders were very nice. Free drinks that night were only on well drinks and shots. They used cheap, which I call headache vodka for our well drinks and shots., like I said couldn't really complain free is free, right? Overall we had a great time. The dancefloor wasn't crowded, the DJ played top 40s which pleased everyone in the crowd. The crowd itself was diverse, however it was an older crowd that partied that night!! Hookah (20 per hour) was misleading. There was a waitlist that was 5min to an hour long! AND they only had TWO hookahs!! Most likely a place I would not go back to. read more

Opal Ultra Lounge - outside - Lounges Near Me - Lake Tahoe, Nevada

Very small cramped area at the bar and horrible organization for big events. I did enjoy the sensual atmosphere of the lounge. Tried to make reservations for dinner, but they discontinued dinner service. read more

Nice modern lounge for Tahoe but not the most crackin' place I've ever been to. There was no dress code, which you would think they would to match their ambienance. There were people in hoodies, flip flops, prom dresses, and suits etc. You catch my drift. The DJ was ok, focused on house and played only a few hip-hop hitters. Nowhere to sit unless you have bottle service. They also have a top balcony for bottle service. Small dance floor but it was packed. Given that this is Tahoe, there wasn't many youngsters here or variety of races. I would say 80% of the demographic was Caucasian and 70% of the age group was late 20s and over. Several people were celebrating bachelor and bachlorette parties. Not a bad place to check out if you're in town. read more

New Years eve weekend! I came here thurs, fri and sat night. I had a good time. This was probably my favorite place. I enjoyed the music. A bit of old a bit of new and some new mixed with old music. There were places to sit and if not, two ft. outside are casino chairs. It is $10 to get in. It is ladies night on friday nights, so free drinks. The redbull vodkas are pretty weak, but all the others are decent. It takes a while to get drinks as well, so that is the downfall. You get a wrist band and that also is good for the Bleu club, which always seems to be empty. There is one bar off to your left, seating near the bar, the problem is the creepy guys who sit there and just stare at girls like cattle. Yeah not the best feeling of eyes at the back of your head. LOL Also the smoking is gross in the club. My clothes and hair smelled horrible. One girl burned me with her cigarette. I suggest a designated area at least for people to smoke. Guys are creepers, you get them everywhere. Some are just fun and no harm done. Others just wont go away. One guy was up on everyone and saw him every night. I was nice except the last night. I just had it. I always said no thank you. The guy just kept coming back. So I yelled and said : you really need to stop! LOL... it had to be done. Overall fun, low key club, a lot of laughs with friends. read more

Semi okay music I guess? The security guard Erick questioned one of the members of our party bc she wasn't the same weight she was in her ID??? We left to go to the restroom and he questioned her for the SECOND time regardless of the wristband that showed we had already been in there (he only asked for her ID for a second time, not the rest of the party). And we didn't get let back in. Glad to see they only appreciate customers who are of a certain weight.... .. ......l read more

Loved it! This is my favorite club in Tahoe. Wish there was a bathroom inside though. Lines move fast, bartenders are cool and quick, the music is always great too! Definitely could use a staff member to maintain the place though during nights. Spills never got cleaned up, and seems the tables were never bussed. read more

Place was great. Just needs more people there. $20 for guys and free for ladies before 12:00. Wife loved it as well but we didn't stay long because of number of people on a Friday of a 3-day weekend. Probably more people there Saturday and Sunday night that weekend. read more

Looks cool but they don't treat their employees, the dancers, fairly let alone kindly. Looks cool but it's not a fun or good business to support. read more

Can't give a fair review. Was there in a last day of the season Friday. Pretty slow. Strip bar vibes meandering on the questionable music choices of the dj of the evening. Even had a security guard escorting the cage dancers- have to see the place on a busy weekend. Would give it another try I suppose. read more

Yes I went to a nightclub and yes I'm giving it a four star review and if you promise to keep it between us I'll even admit that I danced. There aren't many nightlife options in South Lake Tahoe and the bars in State Line Nevada are mostly sad casino bars. I was traveling with a group of guys and the group wanted to go to this club. There was a $10 cover but we told them we were staying at the hotel, even though we weren't, and they let us in for $5. I am an adult and straight and I admit to having a healthy attraction to scantily dressed women. This place is not only full of female customers dressed sexy and dancing suggestively with each other but they also have three extremely hot Go-Go dancers. This is an excellent place to do some girl watching! read more

This club has really gone down hill over the years. When I was in college this was the hot spot to go, but now it's a disappointment. Friday night is ladies' night where ladies drink free. What that really means is we pay $10 to get in and you get free, watered down well drinks. There is barely any alcohol in those drinks. Totally not worth it. Saturday night ladies get in free but drinks are full price. During my most recent visit Friday night was very busy. It was overcrowded and took some time to get a drink at the bar. Saturday night however was the exact opposite, completely dead and whoever was there was mostly creepy guys. A year or two back I came with a large group of friends, both men and women. However, myself and the other ladies I was with believe we were either roofied or had something slipped in our drinks. We all blacked out at exactly the same time that evening after only having a few drinks. We all woke up feeling very sick and after doing some research, found that we had many symptoms of being drugged. This is very unsettling and all women should be cautious of this in the future, no matter what nightclub you are at. I know this experience is not due to the club, but rather some lowlife men, but it definitely makes us nervous to return. The DJ usually only plays older music, nothing really up to date and if you request something, odds are that they won't play it. read more

Can we say sticky sticky floors? To the point that your shoe would get stuck to the floor & you had to pry it off the floor as you are trying to put it back on your foot! However, drinks were great & the go go girls were hot with their perfect little selves dancing all over the place. The crowd was great & the music was decent. They need bathrooms in the club for shits sake! So- 3 stars because the floors & having to leave the club to go to the bathroom. read more

First time. It was pretty standard. Pretty packed, but it was new year' s eve. Got a dirty martini and she filled half the glass with olive juice? I asked her if she could re-shake it and she said no:(. I'm a bartender.. And that's bad service. Sooooo I waited for a manager out front with my dirty salty martini on new years eve- in front of tons of people! I didn't really care though cause it's pretty funny if you think about it. The manager was great and even though he was probably busier than any other day of the year- he took me to another bar outside the club and made (himself) a dirty martini for me. Amazing. My recomendation: avoid the chick bartender with tattoos. read more

One word: bleh Why on earth would you carpet a bar? Just went to Opal for a bachelorette party this past weekend and was totally grossed out. Our group of 11 ladies showed up and were promptly told to get in line since we didn't have a reservation. So we got in line behind NO ONE, because obviously this is Tahoe not Vegas, and entered the bar. The bartenders were alright because the drinks were hella CHEAP! That is the reason I gave them the two stars. I didn't like that even though I tipped the bartender well I got skipped a bunch of times when I went for the second round. Maybe I should flash some $$$$ next time? The music was lame and the DJ couldn't mix anything and the little 'scratching' he did sounded terrible! Not gonna lie, the people that were there were pretty gross... Thank the lord I found the only other gay there or I would have suffered the same fate as all the rest of my gurls did... To be rubbed up against all night by nasty boys! NO THANK YOU! read more

I was lucky enough to be at the grand opening of the Opal Ultra Lounge. Free drinks and free food was the perfect way to get introduced to this swanky bar and hookah lounge in Tahoe. Everything I tasted was exceptional for this event. From the first moment I stepped foot in this ultra lounge, I was impressed. They created a festive and fun atmosphere that is also sophisticated. When I met the mixologist and her customized liquor cart filled with a variety of organic ingredients, it was love at first sight. This is a trend I can get behind. I think she is a one of the kind at the moment ... but great ideas always seem to be duplicated. I give this establishment 5 stars because there is a lot of effort and expertise that went into this endeavor. It certainly is a risk to open a new spot in this town. Sometimes it is crowded and sometimes it is dead. If is seems less crowded than you would expect, it is because it is in Tahoe and it can be a little sleepy sometimes. And if you are in town ... get a drink here and see if you like it too. If not, the casino is in the next room. read more

I'm not much into nightclubs but if you like to dance and enjoy loud music this is the place. Drinks are verrrry expensive but you pay for the atmosphere. If you're lucky enough to know a VIP you can skip the really long line into the place. Be prepared to be searched. So I read some of the other reviews and I agree with most of them. There are two sides to the place...just like Lake Tahoe. You have both above and below the line. I'll leave it to you to figure out what that means just remember you can find beauty everywhere if you're looking for it. read more

Out of the clubs in the Montbleu casino, this one is the best one hands down. It has the most room to actually move and walk around, without being forced to run into or squeeze by really sweaty people, which to me is always a turn off.... The decor is nice in this club, dimly lit, and they played the best music here by far. And the best thing about the Opal Lounge was that the line for the men's bathroom was actually longer than for the women's!!! AMAZING!! I had never been more excited to have to go to the restroom! The bar tenders were a little understaffed, but overall we got our drinks a little faster when the boys ordered than when I did, since the bar tenders were all girls here the night we went....gotta love sexism in a bar!!! ha ha But the dance floor was nicely placed and the bar area was elevated above the dance floor which created a nice feel and overall flow to this club. It just made you want to dance! Any takers? ha ha read more

They advertised a $10 cover however that is only for locals. So remember when you get to the front of the line to say you live in town. Otherwise it's 20 bucks per person plus taxes. I never heard of a place charging taxes on a cover. My girlfriend and I did recover most of the funds by taking advantage of the free drinks for ladies till 1 a.m. which I will say for free drinks were pretty strong. I mean that's what my girlfriend told me of course LOL . The DJ needs a new job, he plays 30 sec of your song and then mixs it into the worse song ever. He almost made me hate a few classics. I would have rather had Pandora playing with commercials. After the club we hit for $100 in the casino. Overall a good time! Ps.sticky floor don't wear those Ice whites here! read more

Horrible venue. Basically the worst experience in Tahoe. The dress code was horrible and had cougars everywhere. I felt like there was no classy people there just the ratchets. Avoid like a plague. If you are on your 20s you will be disappointed, this is not the club you'll enjoy. Get some class! read more

OMG!!! If you're ever in Tahoe, this is a great place to go out dancing to. It's located at Harrah's casion/hotel. The venue is huge. Multiple bars, stage, great VIP booths Bartenders are awesome, friendly and heavy on the alcohol!!! Music is fantastic too :) A mix of diveresed people, dancing, drinking all equeals one awesome evening!!! Totally recommend and will be back next time around read more

How much money did they spend on this place? Opal Lounge- oh sorry, Opal ULTRA lounge is very spacious, dimly lit, and well furnished. Leather sofas all around. In the place of chandeliers were brightly colored flowy draperies. The whole time there I felt like I was waiting for a performer from Cirque du Soleil to spiral down from one of them. The Mont Bleu (re-vamped Caesar's) did a good job with this lounge. I can't speak for any other weekend, but a group of us went up to Tahoe during MLK holiday and this place was packed. The service at the bar seemed understaffed for the crowd, but other than that- we had a great time. ** The TV screens near the bar played videos of extreme snowboarders/skiers performing impossible jumps and maneuvers. Neat** read more

Bad music, bad setting. Went on a sat night at around 9:30...stayed till 10:30...did not pick up at all. Not worth the $10 cover charge for the guys. Overall it was below average. read more

This way my first time at Opal. We attended as a bachelorette group (which is what they promote every saturday) and we received bottle service on the upper balcony. No line when we arrived; it was pretty early. So good for us! Bottle service was simple and straightforward, no issues there! The club filled up to a good sized capacity as the night progressed. I will say the guys there were more aggressive and we felt like we were shoving them away instead of enjoying ourselves. I do like the balcony upstairs, they limit the number of people up there and they have their own bar. Its fun to dance up above while facing the people below! You can see all the gogo dancers from there! One negative is that our VIP section had no barrier to the outside. No rope or anything. So people kept coming over and sitting on our couches and we had to police it all night. I didn't really appreciate that. Some even went as far as attempting to help themselves to our bottle service! Rude! This has room for improvement here. Lastly, the restrooms are OUTSIDE the club. read more

My friends and I were on a couple's retreat, and we saw their ad for the 'ladies night' on Fridays, when girls drink "free". I like that they're catering to bachelorette groups and ladies, but there were more than a couple of problems that ensure that we will not be coming back here. First, I can see why they try to create a line to get into the place, even when it's not close to capacity inside (more like on the "empty" side, because we went kind of early), but we were annoyed waiting in line for 15 minutes for pretty much no reason other than to serve as an "advertisement" that the club is open. You still have to pay the $10 cover to get to the "Ladies drink free" special. After a while, bathroom breaks are inevitable. However, the restrooms are outside of the club, around the corner near the buffet area. Leaving the dark club and heading into smelly and smokey casino territory while inebriated, just to get to the bathroom isn't much fun. And lastly, the most annoying point that took us a while to figure out from the very overworked bartenders: the "free" drink MUST BE: 1. ONE alcohol and ONE mixer 2. NO shots allowed 3. "well" alcohols only. 4. One drink at a time. False advertising about free drinks, IMO....they should really specify what is included, because it was really frustrating trying to hear the bartenders shout explanations that we couldn't hear over the music. read more

Based off my previous review, you can tell my experience with Tahoe night clubs was not going so well. So I did arrive here with a "anything has to be better than THAT" mentality. Though this is definitely the place my friends and I should have come to first. To start, just by walking by, we could see inside the club and were made certain that this was the place to be. It was filled with people, they had a mix of top 40 and old school playing, and the line moved along super fast. Ladies are free before midnight, and my friends and I arrived around 12:30am. The general cover is $10, but the girl at the door only charged us $5 each when she heard it was my birthday. TAKE THAT, $25 charge! This place isn't the most lavish of nightclubs, but my friends and I accomplished what we wanted here: a exciting night to remember. Here's what they did right: they weren't a**holes, the music was great and it drew in a more diverse crowd. My friends and I were able to dance, let loose and totally enjoy ourselves among other happy-go-lucky club goers. Now THIS is how I wanted to spend my birthday! The biggest downfall was that bar was packed and it was difficult to get a drink. Also, it turns out they charge the same price here for drinks, and they're still weak. However I could actually taste a hint of liquor. Go figure. I will definitely return when I'm in Tahoe. read more

I'm giving this 3 stars because the music was good and fun to dance to but the crowd was shitty. Needs to be classier. Location: The place is within the casino. We went on a Saturday night and got in for free as ladies before 12. It's open until 4am. Gamble before or after. Cigar store next door. Coat check also there and cheap ($3 per coat). Music: The music is a mix of top 40s, hip hop, and EDM which was slightly awkward at times. I wish they would have stuck to EDM instead of throwing in random hip hop here and there. Dress code: People were dressed nice. Ladies in dresses, skirts, heels, or at least something nice. Guys basically in whatever they wanted. Crowd: The crowd was pretty gross. People were dropping glasses, spilling drinks, and stumbling around. Some people were so drunk they were puking on themselves. Sure this is a club/lounge and that's bound to happen, but there were no bouncers anywhere except at the door. I wasn't expecting anything super classy, but decent enough that you would at least have bouncers kicking out super drunk people about to puke themselves. This place could be a lot better if they class it up a bit. Tips: If you're gonna be drunk as hell and don't mind being stepped on or have drinks spilled on you but just wanna dance, go for it. It was still pretty fun. Note you're gonna smell like smoke after because this is Nevada. read more

I went because it was my wife's birthday and she wanted to dance. There is a row of chairs along the upper level railing, but other than that, if you want to sit down, you have to order over-priced bottle service. So, the club had a pretty good crowd, but all of the booths and couches were cordoned off so no one could sit. Stupid. Lots of security, which I guess is a good thing if people get out of hand, but they seemed there mostly to make sure that no one sat down. Floors were sticky from spilled drinks, and the drinks come in small plastic cups like the ones supplied at water coolers. read more

Not a bad club/lounge as far as clubs and lounges goes. It's Nevada, so you're allowed to smoke and people do huff and puff...yeah I want to breath some of that 2nd hand carcinogens douchebags...keep at it! I had a great time though, can't complain other than the cancer risks...but then if you can pop & lock and do the Dougie, you'll always have a great time at any club...and get the ladies attention. read more

Not bad. We dropped like 2000 on bottle service. Service was just ok, security was looking for reason to throw us out. Because couple in are party were pretty wasted, but the manner how they tried was where things went wrong. Staff needs to trained better on accomplishing such a manner. Anyways 3 stars... read more

Was here this past weekend after losing $800 in roulette to forget my horrible lost . If it wasn't for my friends who pulled me away I would of lost even more!! My friends had bottle service and the area was big enough for all of us to fit and dance. The music they were playing wasn't the greatest but definitely busted a move like Michael Jackson Saturday night. The one thing i really did like was that they stayed open really late! The crowd and bar area out side the club was just as fun with alot of young people my age. Would I come back again? Maybe. read more

My friends and I went dancing at Opal on a Friday night when we were in beautiful SLT. Definitely a fan! If I remember correctly...us women got in for free AND LADIES DRINK FREE!!! WTH!?! Our Tahoe trip was already paid in drinks alone at Embassy during their Manager's Reception and now we also get free drinks all night at Opal. My girlfriends and I were definitely pretty excited. I'm not sure if ladies drink free every night...but, I know Friday is a for sure thing. Overall, the music was good. Good atmosphere. read more

This place annoyed me... with 14 girls they made us wait in line and let a bunch of scary looking, big-haired people skip ahead of us. If the wait was 5-10 min that would've been ok (I THINK) but the wait bordered on 15-20 min...and it wasn't even all that busy inside. The place is small, fortunately we got bottle service so we had our own private dancing area and invited a few hot boys to join in the festivities.. the bride to be went c-r-a-z-y and started stripping off the clothes of 2 boys...even so the initial experience at Opal was sour and we decided to leave after we finished all the drinks and went back to Vex. And yes, the bride to be and a few strong soldiers stayed at Vex til the bitter end and finally came home at 6:30AM. read more

This club has a lot of character. Some friends of mine spent the night just people watching and they had a blast. $10 cover charge, ladies free Saturday nights. A go go dancers everywhere - live and silhouette projections. Top 40 music, big dance floor. Half of the crowd were in winter boots but nobody really cared. Just one annoying thing, people are allowed to smoke inside while dancing. Please...if you burn me you'll find my boot on your face. read more
