The layout really adds to the term of this club, with funky and unique architecture, such as the stairs in the main room, or the round arch is in the doorways on the first level, down to the pool table that serves as the DJ table in the the basement level. Great drinks at the bar upstairs, as well as the one downstairs, gender, neutral, and clean, restrooms, and coat check available. Staff are friendly here and the owners do a great job of booking, unique and exciting talent.

This night in particular it wasn't extremely crowded there wasn't a line wrapped around the building to get in it was smooth sailing. First, the bathroom which was nice and clean I must say. There are separate toilets for men on one side and women on the other. If I am not mistaken in between both are the shared handwashing station for both genders. I was able to get good pics and videos in the mirror lol Then I went to the bar and asked for a Casamigo with pineapple and cranberry. The bartender told me $25. TWENTY FIVE USD! I was very annoyed with the price but since I had no choice In the matter I ordered it and asked her to give me a receipt BEFORE I paid for it so I can see whether gratuity and or taxes were included beforehand. I saw her talking to a man she came to me and told me she couldn't give me a receipt beforehand. So I watched her ring up my item and it said $22.30 (less than what she said initially) I paid and then I got my receipt at the end and I said the gratuity and tax was already added. Other than that the place is nice. I don't like the ALL SECTIONS set up. The is no dance floor. Today's party scene is more so to make money from bottles and hooka. Photo ops to look good in videos and pictures & to make people "Feel" elite with table service and sections.

The white guy behind the bar has a nasty attitude when it comes to buying bottles. But other than that, perfect space and high quality drinks. I haven't tried any food and don't know if there is any food. But I would highly recommend that you get a section of your coming here to party. Other wise you'll be riding the wave of bumping into everyone enjoying the action. The DJ's should update their playlists to today's times as well. In the beginning we all kind of weren't feeling the 90's and early 2000's music. But then it just took of to a whole new level I stamp this place!

I didn't get their name but it was a white male presenting person with long tawny brown blond hair and a septum piercing. 6/15 around 11:30 pm at the very end of the event I was attending a wonderful event for Tales of a Cocktail x Espolon and at the end of the night I was trying to get my friend to register with Campari academy // the QR codes were all over the bar... I asked "Hi do you guys still have any of the QR codes that were on the bar ? For Campari academy" and this person laughed in my face sneered at me like they were mocking me and said "i don't even know wtf that is" I clarified "oh the Pink QR codes that were all over the bar are they gone ?" Again they repeated " i don't even know what you're even talking about .. so no" The interaction was so rude and really put a bad taste in my mouth I went further and asked "oh yall probably threw them out already" , i asked him "you work for elsewhere right? And not espolon" - he laughed in my face again and said no ... I was trying to be nice and remain positive so I told him "oh you should look into it then! You're a bartender right ? They do lots of free parties and events like this one" His response was so nasty he smiles in my faces and said "yeah I don't wanna do that I don't really care" so I kept my composure because at the end of the day this was an event for all industry professionals, bar owners, bartenders LIQOUR reps, hospitality leaders etc- and this was the demeanor this person had.... I replied "oh you don't care huh? Well the information is there if you want it have a goodnight" and as I was walking away he said "I really don't" This was such an unfortunate and unexpected interaction just a few days short of the NBA playoffs party I attended with NYx Cosmetics at Elsewhere. - I work in hospitality because I genuinely want to be there and I want to give people exciting memorable experiences- not mock them to their face and try to make them feel small...

I also had a specialty drink that was refreshing and well-balanced. The bar is beautiful and definitely worth a return trip just to sample more from the drink menu. Though we only stayed for brunch, the lunch and dinner menu looked amazing. Think avocado fries, chicken wings, tacos, and quesadillas. Great food, great vibe--will definitely be back for the day party scene!

There were a few people downstairs at the bar, but there were lots of open seats and the music wasn't turned up too loud just yet. I ordered the pretzel bites, the wings, and the jerk chicken tacos. Everything was good but the wings were the star! The ranch and blue cheese dips seemed like they were homemade. The chef came out for a bit and they were really nice and made sure everything was good with the meal. I also ordered a delicious mocktail. All of the staff was friendly and attentive. Some other deetz about this place: * Lots of bathrooms and they are all different colors; very cute! * The upstairs area has the cute dance cave/cavern vibe. * Their instagram has all of the info on visiting DJs and art installations. I'm not much of a club/dancing person, but I love that this place has really good food and NA drink options. Will definitely be back!

House of Yes isn't just a venue--it's a state of mind, a glitter-drenched fever dream of queer joy,…read moreradical self-expression, and performance art that swings from the ceiling (literally). If you walk in expecting a traditional night out, prepare to be lovingly and fabulously corrected. From the moment I entered with a friend, it was clear this place plays by its own, very sparkly rules. The first room was more of a whimsical prelude than a line-up zone: drinks flowing, people mingling like old friends at a costume party, and a gloriously casual pile of pillows where you could recline like a disco-era Roman god. And yes--there was a tarot reader, naturally, because no true evening of hedonistic joy is complete without a stranger telling you your moon energy needs grounding. Once the main room opened, things escalated--in the best way possible. Performers appeared everywhere: on stage, above our heads, behind the crowd--acrobats, dancers, aerialists, all oozing talent, glitter, and just enough danger to keep you watching with your mouth open and your drink clutched tightly. It wasn't just a dance floor--it was a full-blown immersive experience. The music kept the energy up all night: infectious, thumping, and curated to make even the shyest feet consider their moment of main-character glory. The crowd? Pure magic. Full of respectful, expressive, and joyful people, the kind of fellow partygoers you dream about meeting in New York. Everyone was there to dance, to celebrate, to vibe--not to posture or preen. What makes House of Yes so special is that it's not just a nightclub--it's a celebration of freedom in all its forms. Of identity, of movement, of art, of joy. It's campy, chaotic, oddly intimate, and--somehow--profound. In short: if you're craving a space that feels like Studio 54 met a circus in a utopian queer commune, House of Yes is your new church. Bring an open mind, comfortable shoes, and a healthy appreciation for sequins.
