Friday 04/05 club selection for BS and good table - need context

[jjden]

Hello everyone!

I could use some advice. 4 guys 1 or 2 girls trying to figure out where to go Friday 04/05.

I am trying to get some context regarding pricing. Is getting a GOOD table with BS at one of the hot, top tier clubs like Marquee and XS MUCH more than other clubs that may not be the hot club of the moment? For a couple of bottles (which I believe will be required with 5 or 6 of us from what I have read here), how much can we expect to pay?

We don't want to pay several thousand but maybe 1 or 2k.

Where would you recommend for Friday 04/05 and what can we expect to spend?

I've seen 10AK recommended for Friday nights for hip hop/top 40 on other threads. How does that compare to a marquee/XS type club? Cost?

Any other good options for that Friday?

Out main goal is to have a good table location in a fun club. We like hip hop/ top 40 but don't mind EDM if the club is bad ass.

Last, where is the after hours now that drai's is temporarily closed?

Thank you in advance for you awesome advice!

Well there are hot spots, but most clubs on a Fri night are gonna be fun and if youre wiling to spend 1 to 2k you guys will find a good spot. Body English seems to be picking up speed for afterhours

The cost of a bottle at XS/Marquee/1OAK will all be pretty much the same. If you are into hip-hop/top 40, then I'd give Marquee (Gareth Emery that night) a miss.

You will want a 2 bottle minimum table at XS to seat 6 people, which will set you back ~$1400 incl taxes, but excluding tips. With that minimum spend, you will be on the patio/outside. For XS, contact Bobby Yeadon 708.714.0280. David Guetta is there that night, so that's a good compromise for "non-die hard EDM fans".

At 1OAK you may be able to swing a b1g1, but a b2g1 is more likely (Joey Orr 586.873.4876). Again, the cost will be much the same as XS for 2 bottles. Your location will be better though. The way 1OAK is designed means there are a lot more "good" tables.

Thanks for the advice!

Sounds like most of the main clubs will be fun on a Friday night. Any other suggestions for a good club for Friday night at 04/05 with good tables usually available at a reasonable price. We are not looking to spend several thousand dollars, but understand that we will need to pay good money to get a good table.

I remember going to Pure at Ceasers and Tao at Venetian a handful of years ago and having a great time. I may be staying at Venetian so that would be convenient. Are those places still kicking? Better value?

I was hoping to stay at Cosmo, but it's around $600 right now, so probably will stay elsewhere.

Any other guidance is much appreciated!

+1 for 1OAK if you're on a budget and aren't in love with EDM.

It's is not on the same level as Marquee / XS but it's still a great spot and you'll get a much better table for the budget you mentioned. Like ocam mentioned you might be able to score a B2G1 deal (free bottle of house vodka) which you won't be able to get at Marquee / Wynn clubs (always nice to have extra booze to share). Chateau has also been getting some good press lately...but I haven't been in couple years so I can't confirm that.

Reach out to Joey Orr and see what he can do for you.

Thanks Cowboy2024, I did leave a message for Joey Orr and we'll see what he says.

Meanwhile, we decided to book at the Cosmo so of course I have to inquire into my options at Marquee. Does anyone know what we can expect to pay for a very good table and BS for 5-6 people? Although one of the comments in this thread was that BS cost was about the same at Marquee and 1OAK, I've read in other posts that getting a good table could be quite pricey as opposed to 1OAK where there are many good tables available. Thanks again!

I think Joey is out of the country so be patient with a response

I'd say XS with Guetta should be pretty damn good and in the top end of your budget. Fantastic club and that'll be a great night for sure. It's the next step up from Tao and Pure for sure so based on your past experience you'll like it.

I'm definitely going that night.

I'm surprised you are the first to suggest XS for that night, thanks! I will contact a host and see what's up.

Marquee quote was pretty high.

Also waiting to hear back from Joey orr when he is back from abroad.

It's looking like we will have to increase our budget to get a prime table (which is what I want) at a top tier club.

Ahhh decisions decision!

I think XS wasn't recommended because your priority was the best table on your budget. Prime tables at XS cost $$$

Good point Ocam. I did, however, make it clear that I didn't have context. I guess now that I am little better informed (big thanks to all of you!) I am trying to figure out how to compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges. More importantly, figure out what the oranges and apples are.

For example if say XS and Marquee are the two current tier 1 hot spots and I can get a prime table at one for 2k and the other for 4k, well the my decision just became a heck of a lot easier.

In the past I was spoiled because I always had a hook up (old, good friend Vegas big shot attorney) hook me up with table reservations. Unfortunately that hook up and I had a fall out and this is the first time I am on my own. Was a bit surprised by the cost of a prime table these days and needed perspective. I am starting to get it.

Bottom line, I really want good real estate. Good table important to me. Trying to figure out where I can land that. Waiting to here from 1OAK and XS hosts.

This forum is awesome, thank you all!

Keep in mind that Marquee charges 38% tax/grat (20 grat + 8 sales + 10 live entertainment tax) vs 28% elsewhere (no LET)

I am going to be in town the same weekend. We debated where to go on 4/5 as well, we have a 10 guy bachelor party. We ended up picking 1OAK (based on recommendations,) Joey Orr gave us a great deal for a dance floor table, B4G1 which will come out to $3k and change with gratuity and tips, which is solid for 10 guys. XS dance floor table that night for David Guetta for us was upwards of $10k, so we are going to XS on Saturday 4/6 for Martin Solveig and Bobby Yeadon is hooking us up that night.

[jjden]

Hey zain, sounds like a great plan, have fun!

What was the Saturday XS cost if you don't mind me asking?
