Reviews

Where to start. I did read reviews of this establishment and decided to have my own experience. It was most interesting.
Shady parking lot deals. We got lost trying to find Haze Ultra Lounge. The directions and address were to Limelight. We got there at 10p. Parked. To my left I saw a Man giving money to security for VIP Parking. We walk into Limelight greeted by security and ushered towards the metal detectors, but wait. We have to check in the w hostess/payment lady. She looks at us and says, you have to come back at 1030p. She did not explain why. That was upsetting bc music was playing and other patrons were already inside the club/bar and from the sounds of it, having a gay ol time. We tropped back to the car.
We wait until 1030p and our friends arrive. We go through security again, and we ask, How do we get to Haze Ultra Lounge? Security asks- the gay club? Ummmm, what? I'm mean we're here and queer, but could you just not repeat the name and point us in the right direction? And directions we got, "Its behind here on the side." Oh ok. *looks around at dim lighting and no obvious signs" We venture on.
We pass one open door. Nope, not it. That's the door to Limelight just opened. No one waiting at the door. So much for metal detectors. We go a little further to another door open, no one at the door and we step inside.
What is this place? No visible indicators that we have arrived to Haze Ultra Lounge. No Music is playing, we saw a man running items and a bartender. We approach the bartender to ask if this is Haze. Yes, but we don't open til 11p. Oh, its only 1053. We ask if we should check in w someone at the door. Bartender's reply, "I mean yeah, you can"-crickets.  We are then greeted by a 3rd set of security. A very lovely lady by the name of Strawberry who I have to give props to because she greeted us very nicely and continue to talk to us because we had 7ral questions.
After a very exciting pat down we did ask questions about reviews, specifically about security not being queer friendly. She took the time to explain, she had great stories and examples as to why bad reviews were written. I tried to keep up, but my eyes kept wandering around this bar.
The bar looked like it was under construction still. The booths ha unfinished dry wall, there were parts of the ceiling missing, a fish tank w murky waters and the saddest looking black sharks in the world. The bar was half stocked. It was like whoever runs this Haze wanted a cool space, but they were still working on it. It's time to go.
We left the bar to be greeted by a group of 6 or so individuals waiting to go in. Its 1130p. Someone said, "y'all the party is about to start. The party is coming." Person, its 1130p no one is here and you all are too cool or you're waiting on a crowd before you go have fun? We are out of here/
Limelight is the building Haze is ran out of. Limelight should assist Haze or come up w a solution where Haze is Visible. They should allow persons to walk through Limelight to get to Haze, if that is possible for security, safety of the patrons. Limelight should also speak with its staff regarding general basic entry level customer service. I feel and these are just feelings. I feel if Limelight staff did a better job of explaining how Haze works then our time would have been more productive. Instead most of our time at Limelight Haze was spent in the parking lot cursing at how inefficient this place is.

I went to the Haze Ultra Lounge side of the club, it was filled with ghetto, low class, uninteresting women. The only reason i gave a 3 star rate is because the staff was amazing, all the staff is very friendly and give good service. But the type of women there are ratchet as hell.

Over priced entry on LGBT side. Rude and bad service. Not enough bartenders when they do have a nice crowd.
