Got robbed blind beware

by ZarinaN

Two days ago I celebrated my birthday at MIXX, I brought in 24 people on the guest list which means all the guys paid $20 and the ladies came in for free. 10 of us got bottle service and were taken to the "VIP" AREA which is just a bunch of couches on the second floor without any privacy. First of all the prices on their website for bottle service are no the actual prices they have on their menu. We paid for 2 bottles of some nasty vodka, not even goose, $340 per bottle. That was fine, we just wanted to have fun. Second, the whole point of having VIP is to have a place to sit with your friends, feel SAFE, and be able to leave your purse on the couch while dancing. All the girls did that around me so I didn't worry about it. I danced the whole time within 3 feet of my bag anyway.The place emptied at about 3am, we were leaving at 4am to get picked up by our limo. That's when I discovered that my purse was open and my cash and my iphone was missing. When we alerted the staff, they actually told us to leave because they needed to clean! My fiance went straight to the Borgata security who actually accused me of throwing napkins over the rail, which I didnt do and wasnt even by the rail. Then one of them asked me if my fiance robbed me. Can you believe that? They actually don't have security cameras in the VIP area so if anything happens there it's absolutely your word against theirs. Needless to say, someone has been making phone calls from my phone after we left the club. It is probably one of the staff, and there is nothing that they are going to do about it. I brought them business and they robbed me then accused me of stupid things.

I realize that this is just a bad experience, so I gave them two stars because the music was good and the party organizing staff was excellent and accommodating.

• Pros: Good music, good party planning staff
• Cons: ugly decor, cheap looking vip area, overpriced, unsafe

The previous review pretty much sums this place up, pretentious. BUT also FULL of meatheads. SO, if you're a meathead and enjoy horrible michael jackson remixes...then THIS is your place. Don't get me wrong, I'm not one to go to clubs that often (more of a t-shirt and jeans, dive bar kind of guy), but I do enjoy the occasional night out dancing (and drinking!). I love going to Tiki Bob's in Phila and the clubs in Vegas are second to none. However...this place was no fun at all. Within 5 minutes of being there I think at least 5 people just walked into me like I wasnt even there. We paid WAY to much to get in and didnt even stay for more than an hour...thats how bad it was. Next time, I think I'll try Casbah!

• Pros: none
• Cons: expensive, bad music

Dont even waste your time

I actually attended a private party at this (so called) club. It actually reminds me of a club from a cruise ship more then anything else. The one bite of food I had tasted like azz, the staff thinks they're all that (like this is some kind of trendy hip place or something---NOT!) As for the music the DJ was awful. In the entire time I was there no one even danced. The place is dirty too, they don't clean it very well.

Basically, if you get your jollys watching fat old men hitting on skanks while eating foul food and kicking back overpriced watered down drinks this is the club for you!

Oh and the only reason I gave them a star is that 0 is not a option.

• Pros: none
• Cons: The entire thing
