Tiger is a very popular nightclub and lounge in Downtown across from DOCO/Golden 1 arena. There's been recent news that they might be shutting down temporarily or permanently so not sure how helpful this review will be if they close soon. The interior is spacious, seating and tables on the first level/street level where you enter, and a large dance space with another bar downstairs. They have lots of popular DJs come here, dance nights, themed nights, special dinner events, and a lot more. I've been here a few times with friends and I think it's a decent spot to come to every now and then if you wanna dance. read more

Overdue review, but it needs to be said. I went here after the Cardi B concert and the experience outside the club alone was enough to ruin the vibe. They had three lines: VIP, ticket holders, and regular. I was in the ticket holder line where multiple people were clearly standing in the correct spot, yet one of the security guards was yelling at the top of his lungs telling everyone to "back tf up" and get in another line. Another staff member even told him we were already in the correct line, but he kept aggressively yelling at everyone anyway. No one was even doing anything wrong. Everyone in line looked confused because we were literally standing where their own signs said to stand. Security's job is to keep things organized and safe, not scream at grown adults like they're children. The attitude was completely unnecessary and honestly uncomfortable. When I finally got to the front, the next security guard started yelling at me while I was already holding my hands out for security because apparently I "wasn't listening." (I was) It honestly felt like some of the security guards had a huge ego and thought that just because they're security it's okay to yell at people, especially women. Being security doesn't give anyone the right to be disrespectful or aggressive for no reason. The security alone is the reason I won't be back here. I had already heard bad things about this place before, but the experience outside before I even got in confirmed everything I heard. If this is how guests are treated before even walking through the door, it's not a place I'd recommend. read more

Try out this restaurant with a couple of friends and I loved it. I think the environment was super fun. The decoration was really vibrant and it really kind of said the ambience the whole night staff is really incredible and sweet. I got amazing recommendations. Parking was super easy to find and get a table was hasslefree so I really love that They had some incredible drinks. Honestly, the bartenders were incredible and sweet. I had a vague idea of what I wanted and they were able to recommend the perfect cocktails for the night. Will definitely be wanted to come back here again wonderful experience read more

The atmosphere was great. The host was great. Everything was great. I look forward to going again on Thursdays every Thursdays so therapy a tiger is absolutely amazing. The music is very grown-up. It's R&B, but it's grown-up. read more

Tiger is definitely more a Club than a Lounge. The vibes on the weekend are always poppin off so unless your vip or a regular the wait is kinda long. The shrimp plate was sooo good we love the friend rice and every time we come here we get the Lumpia fries!! Those lumpia are soo good especially when ur drunk and hungry from all that dancing. The drink prices are not too crazy the only thing is the DJs!!! There's usually 3 DJs a night and I swear they still play the same 4 songs for each set which gets old... plz playMORE hot girl music like Megan thee Stallion or Doja Cat and LESS Sexy Red and Ice spice it's old very quickly. read more

Tiger is a Sacramento staple as strange as this sounds. Tiger reminds me of old Sacramento downtown but with a modern twist. Tiger is for those, who like to dance, because this is definitely the spot to do that downtown. I would recommend coming here on a Thursday night. At 11pm on Thursdays, there is a local dance crew that comes through and has dance battle. There is a cover is you arrive after 10pm. Tiger is filled with instagram worthy backgrounds for cute photo-ops for everyone! The drinks cost about $12, which aren't too expensive. The menu drinks are good but I highly recommend that you defer to the bartenders. Their drinks are tailored to each person and I think bette than the other drinks. read more

Not worth the hype--cost too high for the vibe Went to Tiger Lounge on a Friday night expecting a fun night out, but the experience was frustrating from the start. We were made to form a line outside, which is fine if the place is packed--but when I asked if there was a cover charge, the doorman wouldn't give a straight answer. Instead, they just told us to scan a QR code to find out. Honestly, I hate relying on my phone when I go out. A night at the club is supposed to be about living in the moment--not worrying about your phone dying just to figure out basic pricing info! Turns out the cover charge was $20 at 10 PM, and once we got inside, there were maybe 30 people total--definitely not the packed, high-energy crowd I expected. Ordered two margaritas, and somehow our total came out to $60--so within 10 minutes, we had already spent $100 for two people. For that price, I was hoping for an unforgettable experience, but the music was just okay, the vibe was blah, and the space looks way bigger online than it actually is. Honestly, Tiger Lounge has potential, but the prices are way too high for what they offer. If they want to charge premium prices, they need to deliver premium energy--better music, better drinks, and a packed, lively crowd. As it stands, I wouldn't go back. read more

Tiger!! 2nd time coming here, the first time was for a YEE event. Stopped in Wednesday night after going to the Kings game. I got to say this seems like a spot I would have loved in my 20's. Now... not really my place. It was pretty dead besides for a few random tables that had bottle service. I had the "Light the Beam" drink. It was good but a little too sugary for me. The service was great. It was really nice to know that the kitchen was still open after the game so you had the option to order food if you wanted to. It's a cute bar that was all decked out in Christmas lights. I think if you wanted to super drink or dance this would be the place. read more

Such a delayed review. Came here for Happy hour after coming for a dine downtown event and was pleasantly surprised. Being honest the food at my previous visit did not leave me a desire to return but I am glad I did. The vibe was there, the service was stellar and the food was really good. Our order: -Fried rice which was so good and well seasoned -Fried chicken also well seasoned and crispy -Half off bottle of wine YES PLEASE!! Definitely worth a try at their happy hour pricing read more

Would have been 4 stars if it wasn't for the long line. Atmosphere and music were fantastic. Drinks pretty reasonable price also. Saturday night was super busy but the line seemed to drag without grabbing the vip access. read more

On a girl's night out, our second stop was Tiger Restaurant and Lounge. We just came in for a drink or two, but they were having a private music event in the lounge area so we were confined to the upstairs bar. We didn't try any food, so this review cannot speak to that, but I was absolutely blown away by the prices of our drinks. We do still live in Sacramento, correct?! It was over $20 for cocktail (standard Moscow Mule). Maybe I have been out of the bar scene for a while but the last time I paid $20 or more for a cocktail was in Las Vegas or New York City. I never would have expected these types of prices in downtown Sacramento. The prices will definitely make me think twice before coming back read more

REDEMPTION It's not very often you find businesses willing to go above and beyond to right a previously wrong experience. Tiger was exceptional in hearing and validating my experience as a customer. That love if service will make a loyal and faithful customer, every time. Thank you for a lovely evening filled with great food, great music, and a fun atmosphere. I'm looking forward to returning. read more

Came for the three-course Dine Downtown Menu ($45/p) on Saturday, January 13th. I was able to snag a 7:15 PM reservation on the same day, woot! Upon arrival, the place wasn't very busy - mostly diners and regulars. I know this place pops off late-night on the weekends. Cool that little old Sac has some nightlife. I got seated in a half booth table. Opted to both sit on the booth side and look out at the downstairs area. There are huge concrete walls filled with graffiti, think I read somewhere that they left the walls as is after renovating the rest of the previous derelict building - neat. There is also a giant menu projected onto one of the main walls, although it is hard to make out the actual text. Ordered a few IPAs, wasn't blown away by the cocktail offerings. Service was attentive but the kitchen was behind and working out some kinks. The poor table next to use waited 30 mins btwn their first and second course. Clearly some communication breakdown, I felt bad for them. My first course was a significant wait but the next two course came back to back and it was smooth sailing. The kitchen hit it's groove. All of the courses were exceptional combinations for flavors and textures. First Course - Truffle Edamame - delicious, lots of umami from the mushroom dashi. The truffle didn't come through too strongly. The edamame filling was plentiful. Second Course - Surf & Turf - seared scallop, short-rib, oyster demi glace, dashi butternut squash puree, charred leeks. Side of tempura-style fried broccolini. Tender short rib and plump scallop. Both paired well with the squash, leek and broccolini. Portion didn't look big but it was a surprising amount of food. Third Course - Salted Egg Yolk Bread Pudding - this was a little too charred, still good though. read more

This place is a lot of things. I always see it as a nightclub with lovely young people having a great time, and a place I'd never go to. I went for their dinner and comedy show and I had a great time. I wasn't sure what the scene would be but the service was quick, it came with a welcome drink, and I loved the shrimp A LOT. I would definitely do the dinner and show again. I can't imagine I'll ever go to the nightclub, but I appreciate that they have a variety of events and try new things. read more

Following some competitive bowling at Capitol Bowl (please reference my review if interested), our group wanted to grab some adult beverages. After discussing a few options, we settled on Tiger Restaurant and Lounge. Prior to that day, I have been to Tiger as it was transitioning into it's nightclub vibe. Therefore, I was looking forward to experiencing the establishment during the late afternoon. Fortunately, our friends whom arrived first, were able to secure seating at the booths located at the entrance. A very enthusiastically server by the name of JK, greeted us and took our drink orders as he provided us with waters (he would continue to refill our waters throughout our visit). I highlight the fact that he provided us with waters because it seems like you have to pull teeth at some places to receive a glass of water. Of course, as most folks know (some learn the hard way), it's prudent to consume a sufficient amount of water while drinking alcoholic beverages (I promise you that I'm not intending to sound judgmental of those who do not). Throughout our time at Tiger I consumed two very delicious drinks. "The Beam"...a purple (Go Lakers!) Margarita with 50 Cent's Branson Cognac (GGGGUNIT!), and the "Mai Tiger"...both drinks were recommended by JK. We enjoyed the overall vibes at Tiger, especially the music selection that was at the perfect volume for you to groove to it while still being able to hear conversation. If you're looking for good vibes + drinks, I highly recommend Tiger Restaurant and Lounge! read more

Tiger is definitely a good time ! The music is good the aesthetics are cool, drinks and the bottle girl Kandy was a whole vibe !

food was great. everything else was mid. super friendly staff for the most part but odd vibes.

The service with jr was amazing! Would definitely come back. He was super nice and made our whole night go so smoothly

Food is always amazing and fresh. DJs have the trendy music, they also have brunches and day parties

I would give zero stars if i could. They were so rude to us because we were people of color. Avoid going there.

Went for the @sacbookandsip reading event. Bar service was okay, bartender was a bit short with me despite having just started the bar service. Drinks were delicious tho so I can't knock em too hard read more

Security guards need an ego check. You don't have to be rude and disrespectful while doing your job. It's about basic human decency. You'd think they are actually men of status with how pretentious they act, but no; they are nothing more than bouncers that like to manhandle sober women as though it's a right within their pay grade. read more

Came here for 7 game Kings v. Warriors. Faith is a sweet manager. Very nice atmosphere. Sound system was good. Plenty of bathrooms on the lower level. Food options were limited during our time. Our food took a while to come out but when it did...the wings were good. The fried rice was good but I would ask for my egg scrambled next time. Pull-a-part bread was good but hard to share because one big chunk. For drinks...we got El Gato Margarita and they were delicious and strong. read more

First time here.. The food is definitely unique ... They have live banned then a DJ afterwards. It's definitely a very popular place. The food we ordered was the onion soup that was very full of flavor. We also ordered noodles that were different with a lot of greens no meat. It was unique never the less it was so tasteful. Lemon drops were very light on the liquor. The portions were small. read more

I want to love this place, but it always disappoint us! First time we went here the security held up the line so it would hit 11PM so it would force us to pay to get in.. but we ended up leaving after waiting for almost an hr! It wasn't event busy. Bad taste in our mouths. So we tried this place again.. We came tonight. We rolled in 20 people deep.. Music tonight was NOT good. no one wanted to stay. Bobble head to these Bay Area music.. not even dance music. No one was moving besides the DJ! We left before the next DJ played. Hopefully he was better. Last time we went there was a girl playing and she was great! What happened?? This place is hyped with a bunch of tiny boppers who think they're Influencers. Lol. We can't with this place anymore. read more

I purchased 8 tickets for friends to attend this event. The menu was not what I paid for. The original menu had foil wrapped chicken and an ice cream cone for dessert. As the courses began to come out, they were clearly different than what I purchased. I asked to speak with the manager who completely dismissed my concern of having a more expensive protein being substituted for rice, as non problematic. I will be reporting this as fraud with my cc company. This is a clear case of bait and switch. You don't get to advertise one thing, and I purchase based on that advertisement and then you give me something completely different. That does not stand for a disgruntled consumer. read more

I got sprayed in the face with some bleach as they were cleaning the table tops. No concerns for any guests,

To Adam (The Owner) and his entire "Brunch in The Square" staff... thank you for a fun first time visit last Sunday! Can't wait for the next event! If y'all don't know... here's what up! Tiger hosts brunch on the weekends which includes bomb.com entrees from steak & eggs to their famous, famous cream cheese french toast! Basically everything on the menu is worth trying. That's the basic truth. The overall vibe is crackin' from the DJ playing throwbacks and mashups to just being outside on a sunny crisp, Sunday Funday afternoon. No cover to get in, just a positive attitude and a face mask, of course! I would highly recommend this gig for a group of friends or even a day date spot. If you're lucky the super chill, owner Adam might make a guest appearance! Come check this out while it's around, now until February. "Brunch in the Square" Saturday and Sunday's from 12:00-4pm. read more

I went here for happy hour before a Kings game since they had posted their new light the beam cocktail on Instagram. The cocktail itself was really good and the $6 deal for that week's happy hour was even better. I've gone to Tiger before for cocktails and music but have never tried their food items. My boyfriend and I decided to order the birria tacos, wings, and oysters to share. The oysters were a $1 each for happy hour so we got 10, and they were great. The wings came in an order of 3, whole wings, and were very crispy. The birria tacos came in an order of 2. They were not very good compared to taco trucks that specialize in birria tacos, and for the price they were not worth it. Service was good and our food and drinks came out promptly. Will definitely be going back for oysters and cocktails. read more

Most of the employees are extremely rude and unwelcoming, and pretty much make it seem as if they don't want business at all. There was this one chick at the bar who got loud with my partner for no reason. Drinks were mid and pricey.

So, this place has had ups and downs in thr past but holy batman, they did great this time! Got oysters, a Fist Kiss, and the Oyster Mushroom PoBoy that were ! But the service made it. Our server, Junior needs to be voted for Best in Sac! Not only was he polite, knowledgeable, and had all the steps of service on point, he assisted in making choices that did NOT disappoint. I made the decision to go back and met Alex and Santiago. What a great decision, they too were professional and knowledgeable as well, plus, gella funny.
