Ive been going to this club since the under 18 nights when it was under previous ownership and called Shark Club. I loved it then, and I still love it now. They took out the pole, which was a bummer but Im sure they had safety reasons to do so. Since those days, theyve only created a more upscale environment with this club. The dance floor is spacious, but at peak time (around midnight) it still gets inevitably overcrowded on Friday and Saturday nights. There are a lot of options to get in for free or to reserve a VIP table. The people are also classier, until they get a couple drinks in their system, but the guys still never truly harass me. Some people dress really nicely and others wear more casual attire (just dont wear straight up sandals or something like that), so you can make the night how you want it! Although my biggest annoyance is when people start getting too drunk and spilling drinks all over the dance floor and my nice heels, they actually recently hired someone to monitor the mess and quickly mop it up, which makes the night so much more pleasant! Parking here has gotten increasingly more difficult, as there is now only a small area for free parking that fills up quickly and otherwise you pay $10 for parking, but there are worse things. The music is also fantastic, its usually modern hip hop/rap or throwback RNB tracks. Very danceable music. Mansion is a great nightclub!
Got tickets ahead of time to see our friend DJ here. My girlfriends sandals didn’t have backs on them so we weren’t allowed in even after explaining to a manager that we had come from 40 minutes away to see our friend perform. Everyone we talked to was exceptionally rude and I accommodating, definitely won’t be back.
First time attending this club with a buddy of mine. Despite all the negative reviews below, I found the security and valet staff accomodating, friendly and professional. Parking is practically non-existent, and the night I went valet service was free. The venue itself was large, spacious and clean. Yes, drinks are expensive but besides that I had an overwhelmingly positive experience. Music selection was great; Not too loud; Bartender was amazing (I never asked his name, but he did all these fanchy flourishes when mixing your drink like Benihana style). Many hot girls and their friends come here as well! Will definitely return in the future.
This place is awesome! Celebrated my daughter’s 21st Birthday here last night based on a friend’s recommendation, and I couldn’t be happier with our experience! The entire staff was accommodating and friendly, the decor was upscale and inviting and the drinks were well worth the money spent. Well definitely be coming back!
Classy place, not filled with nasty people.Parking is rough...theres no where in the streets so you have to do their $5 valet. Not bad price though and the valet attendants are all nice.Everyone was super friendly to my friend who was having her bachelorette party. Bartender didnt know how to make a buttery nipple or a rumple mint...so I got her an AMF instead and he made it promptly. Music was okay but kind of got boring as the night progressed. Staff was friendly though.
Its been a minute since Ive gone to a club but I am so glad I did. Granted your company is what makes the evening but I had a great experience here. self park is 10 and valet is 15. Entry was free. Music was poppin. I think it was a flashback/old school night. Stayed til close. Will be back indeed.On a side note, fellas, asian women everywhere! And a handful of the others. Excellent selection!
Friday nights have been amazing! I saw it being advertised recently and so I went to check it out. I had a great time! They have a cool specialty cocktail room with a bar right when you walk in and the main room is huge! It really does look like a Mansion. Definitely one of the largest venues to OC. The music was great, the crowds was great and they have artist coming in every week with hit songs that I heard so Ill will be coming back all the time! Table service here is amazing and the tables are much larger than your average OC nightclub.
The decoration was good and the venue is really spacious. The crowd was really conservative and people dress like they are going to the beach . Why would you let people who wears short enter? It destroys the clubs image and brings down the establishments value. Drinks were quite expensive for a place that wasnt popping until 12 am. I hope that they will invest in a big name dj soon, because its a waste of such a nice club. In addition, THE DANCE FLOOR WAS TOO BIGHT. They really need to dim down the dance floor a bit, to help people feel more at ease on the dance floor.
Went here a few days ago for Madeintyo; when we got there, there were signs posted at the entrance saying he wasnt performing and while its nice that they were honest about it, its still a little annoying. Me and my friend decided to give it a try anyway. I was disappointed to find that this place is kind of a weird awkward mix between a bar and a club. The dance floor was pretty empty and it was way too well lit to comfortably dance without feeling like a spotlight was on you. We tried to get into dance party mode but ultimately had to leave because we felt so weird. Its probably nice that the dance floor is less crowded if youre with a group of friends but me and my friend were looking for more of an immersive club experience and this wasnt it. The staff seemed nice and professional though!
This place is a scam! My friends and I got here at 9pm excited because they shouldve opened at 10. We get to the guy taking money and hes like oh its after 10:30, $20 now. I talked to one other security guard to see if they could honor our before 10:30 tickets and he just wrote me off. This place is wack, Im sure they do this every event.
I read tons of negativity on your reviews. It is possible that this club has improved since the name change and I guess Im going to attend one of these days. I heard about the big dance floor. Thats all I care about I am a performer.
Great for hiphop. Table with great view for stage. Huge dance floor. Best when having hiphop events.Valet parking is a big shout out but takes lots of time waiting to get car too.
Crazy but really good guys on face control, so it means this place SHOUD be super safe!Atmosphere and DJ also nice.I really like the rising of this club, even when its crowds you will find a spot not to be jammed
One of the most annoying nights of my life. Came to this place with the hopes of it being amazing and thats was a total let down. I came and at first i was like okay this will be awesome neon paint party going to have fun w my friends okay. First i walk inside and it was like a fricken maze then i got to the stage and it was just all gross and the people were just pushy and in your face was not the vibes i was counting on. After i was having some shots from the bar i wanted to just be a little ways away frm everyone so i didnt end up being bothered and i could watch these storm troopers the glowed in the dark. I was standing on a couchand security came up and grabbed me by the arm pretty hard i was escorted out with one friend. Told security hey i was standing on the couch you could have just asked me to plz get off and i would have totally moved i was just trying to watch the show. They said they didnt care and they could talk to the owner. The owner came about 20mins later explaining oh he doesnt care were some kids and we were just a number i replied wow well atleast can you go get our friend he said that he doesnt care he wanted us to leave my friend cole said hey im not leaving till he comes out. Owner replies well you must he tough staying on ones property you want to see tough. I then explained to cole we will just wait for him at the car. Was kicked out in twenty minutes of being there peoples vibes were just to err in the face pushy moshpits and then had my friend threatend by the owner cause he cant handle the stress of running the club. Sorry but if i could give negative points i would.
I like the place as its very spacious and the staff is super nice. I have been going there often since they open and I invited a lot of friends for their Halloween event on the 28th of October as they were advertising 15 djs and a $10,000 prize for a costume contest. I spend all week putting a creative costume together and spend hundreds of dollar paying for a make up artist to do my make up and hair for the event. I had about 30 friends come join me for that and guess what... THERE WAS NO CONTEST! When I asked around nobody had an answer. My friends and myself, of course, were extremely disappointed. There werent 15 djs and there was no contest. False advertising is really bad for the reputation of any business specially a new one. I will overthink about going back and specially inviting friends to join me there.The bar has very few option of drinks compared to other clubs in Orange County. They dont carry Grey Goose or Sugar Free Redbull. All vodka they have is cheap.
Everyone I was meeting with got in for free, I show up alone and get told there’s a $20 cover fee and need to Venmo some guy named ‘Chris’? - “it’s legit bro. It’s legit”, I was told by the people at the door. Once in, I ordered a shot and a beer, while security are waving flashlights at me trying to get me to move (I was at the bar). The shot was not even a full shot, somehow came to $20. Overall spent about $40 within 15 mins on idk what. The place is trash. I recommend going elsewhere.
This is the worst place to have fun. I was assaulted by security and have pictures to prove it. As well as witnesses. Be very, VERY, careful when you go to this dump. They also assaulted my fiance. These people have no class and are beyond disgusting.
My wife and I paid for VIP, we sat down the entire time and when we Rose to leave an Asian guy said that Inwas a little intoxicated and asked us to leave. I told him that we were leaving. My wife stayed that she watched a Caucasian female watch out VIP table the entire night and Everytime that we got loud to sing to a song she would speak to security. Though this is a club that plays urban music, Indomt recommend that minorities frequent this club. Prior to arriving at this establishment, we went to a Kreoke Harmon E Colorado springsamd it was much better.
Its in an awesome location and the venue is top-notch. I just wish the security did not harass me or my colleagues as much. Such a shame that a great place has to be ruined by something so silly and preventable.
Good size place, good music...However, was more fun when it was Shark Cub with Gogo Dancers, dance battles, etc...We had some good, talented dancers back then...
Over crowed people were rude to hot inside. Although I did see a lot of sexy Asian girls especially the one at the bar. So that was a plus
They let me in then kicked me out.. all they could.say was iwas thier policy .. I was totally discriminated against without any justifiable cause..they said to come back in a few weeks whatever that means.. all I did was step out for some ciggs then all the sudden I became a problem to the whole establishment
A nightclub in Costa Mesa between warehouses and cant get it with shorts? Even in vegas there is no dress code, what did you guys think when you make this dress code?
I’m sick of the negativity. This place has chairs, beats, and drinks. What more could a hot boy ask for? I’m content with this bar. content. Thus, I willingly donate 4 stars.
Not sure who I should contact for this but left a carton of cigarettes in the passenger seat last night parking at valet and its mysteriously disappeared? can you guys be a little more obvious? smfh.
Cool venue but everything is way way way overpriced. 12 bucks for a shot thats more like half a shot. Get out of here with that nonsense
TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, THE BOUNCERS SAW THAT I HAD MY PRE-SCRIPTION MEDICATION ON ME AND SAID I COULD NOT BRING IT IN, I STATED I WOULD THEN HAVE TO LEAVE BECAUSE I NEEDED MY MEDICINE TO ATTEND, THE BOUNCER AT THE DOOR SNATCHED THE MEDICINE FROM MY HANDS AND WOULD AND WOULD NOT RETURN IT, EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE*** NOT **POLICE*** AND HAD NO AUTHORITY TO DO SO.THE BOUNCER !STOLE* MY MEDICINE FROM ME!AND WOULD NOT GIVE IT BACK EVEN THOUGH I HAD NEVER ENTERED THE VENUE AND WAS LEAVING.0 OUT OF 5 STARSDONT RUIN YOUR NIGHT OVER THIS LOCATION , FIND A LEGIT CLUB
Best club in OC hands down. No nasty people and great music especially Friday nights
I attended an event here the staff was great they even had a taco lady and who does not enjoy tacos
Probably the best club in O.C. But there is much better vibe in downtown L.A. , Hollywood even Long Beach....
Im trying to find out if this is a 18 & older club?? They wont take calls or messages, lack of information is gonna keep me from checking this place out tonight
Good size club, plenty of tables for bottle service. Great music
Rob Dyrdek was the one who told me about this place than had the worse experience till I saw the security drunk af pissing in the mop bucket lol
Absolutely horrific. Paid for a table here and got kicked out for having a vape.
Always a cool spot to turn up. Fridays u can wear hats FYI.
Pretty spacious club. I came on a Thursday and the music was mostly hip hop with a little EDM.
This is not open as advertised! I arrived at 11:50pm on a Saturday and it was very clearly closed!
Never again. Both security and management are nasty, rude and have no crowd control skills.
Friday night. Nice venue, great music, way too many guys.
Come Saturday and ask for me or Ruben. Get on our guest list and well hook you up.
Crowd sucked and so did the DJ.. wont recommend it!
Nice decor, weird crowd depending on the nights
Wow.. Didnt expect to have fun... Especially in Costa Mesa.. try this spot for a night out.
The bartenders were awful and rude. Never going back.
Place looks alot better then when it used to be Shark.
Awesome club with big dance floor.
Fun friendly service, people and music
I love it...best club in the OC
The dj was horrible. #90sprom

The place to be Night Club is off the chain
Good spot to dance
Hottest club with the hottest women

Shake your body 🔥
