This place has a really fun vibe although it seems that theft and pick pockets are quite common here-specifically regarding phones. I've heard from other attendants that it could be an inside job.
The security isn't very helpful about it and I understand that this place gets really packed (like shoulder-to-shoulder), but the security isn't readily available and, according to them, the cameras aren't doing their job of capturing some necessary footage-such as theft or sexual molestation-due to the amount of people. I was told the cameras are only good for capturing fights.
If you come here, please take special care of your belongings. Carry your purse in front of you so nobody, worker or attendee, reaches in. Constantly check your stuff/pockets. If something is stolen, please contact the police. Maybe a proper investigation can begin if people report it to the proper authorities so that the security at this bar is better and the culpable are stopped.

I was pick pocketed twice in one night here. Fyi, my purse has a lock on it and the person who did it knew what they were looking for and what they were doing. My friend's bag was also rummaged through.

Be careful and be safe everyone. Be smart. Get in touch with the proper authorities to help you, the security and manager here will treat it all with nonchalance unfortunately.
