Hakkasan Group & Wet Republic Reviews

Fun, but did not live up the hype. The dress code wasn't as bad as people warned, I was let in with an untucked button up shirt, khaki pants and Sperrys. Everyone is packed in like sardines to the point where you can hardly dance without stepping on someone. The bouncers inside were pushy and rude and one guy kept yelling for everyone to "MOVE" but without telling you WHERE to move - no matter where I stood, he'd yell. I recommend getting plastered in your hotel beforehand so that you can just enjoy yourself and the music without going broke at the bar.

Extremely crowded after an hour they opened. Was so excited to see illenium tonight but was quickly disappointed due to security treating my group like trash. Anyone who isn t VIP gets packed onto the dance floor so either way you will be pressed up against people from all sides and no seating areas anywhere, it s like saying have fun with feet pain and being crowded like domesticated animals cause you didn t give us money lol. Either buy VIP or don t bother coming here.

Great club featuring some of the best DJs in the world. If you're looking for the best Vegas club experience, this is the place.

Lines are longer than you think. Plan to spend 1-1.5 hrs waiting.

Had a lot of fun. Went on a Thursday tho, so probably not near as crowded, but was definitely a full night. Buy the $100 VIP cards. It's worth it. We got right in and it doesn't take a lot to spend $100 here unfortunately.

Obnoxios Staff, treated like trash unless you pay for VIP service, extremely overcrowded and busy, obnoxious patrons. Glad I didn t spend a dime. Go find a better club, there s plenty in Vegas.

Bouncers do very little. If I wanted to stand packed like cattle next to invalids I d go take a trip to prison.

Absolutely to be avoided, the security was really bad, arrogant and unprofessional made my friend cry and did not allow her to enter despite the invitation and was in the queue for over 1 hour because according to them she had an unsuitable bag and too big, you realize it was a normal evening bag, they prevented her from coming in for this stupid thing. Have you ever heard something more ridiculous?

The staff before entering the club were incredibly rude. Once you get in, it s impossible to move or dance. Definitely didn t live up to the hype. Not worth the money. Complete waste of time and energy.

If they are going to sell you tickets to a concert based on billboards they should let you know ahead of time that its a nightclub with a dress code. Once you buy your ticket and figure that out they should be willing to refund your money

Lil Jon was awesome! The Hakkasan Nightclub knows how to throw a party. All the DJs are on point. If you like to dance, you will love this place. Dress to impress.

The nightclub was very classy. It had a great layout--a nice open dance floor as well as a lot of tables to relax at. Great music, good drinks (but definitely pricey). Overall, I had a great experience, and would definitely return!!

It is among the best clubs in LV. It is located within MGM and has two floors that can function as independent clubs.

Imagine designing a venue where 80% of the main room won't be able to see the dj you are overcharging people to see. That's what this was in a nutshell. Wayyyyy to many private booths make it impossible for anyone else to party or get in on the dancefloor. Just a cash grab for the hakasan group.

You gotta ball out and get a table or its not gonna be a good time

Rating is for the music. It is just terrible. SOME EDM/house music is good, but for the whole night? Negative. The club is gorgeous (considering we walked up about 4-5 flights of stairs once inside to get to the actual club). I feel like I was inside of Truth ( from 50 Cent s show, Power). Beautiful club, super packed and I m sure some of those ppl do drugs. They can t be in their right mind to listen to that all night. Fortunately, this was part of a club crawl and we left on to the next spot. Omnia inside of Caesar s Palace has hip hop in the Heart Room, for those that are interested in that genre.

We were a group of five ( I personally am an international traveler) from different places in US and assumed that this club is one of the best In Vegas but it turned out to be the worst experiences I ever had so far. We waited atleast one hour to get a round of shots and a glass of water at the bar ...that s usually the scenario in bars and pubs, but the worst part was the bar tender shouted to the other bar tenders not to offer us water or any other drinks until 30 mins. I would have given it a 0 star rating but I had to give it a 1 just to write this review. Will never go back and also request others to make sure there is no sort of discrimination at this club before you decide to go here!!!!!! . Hope the management makes or is alerted by this review and corrects this!

Went to this club on Saturday June 28th to see Tiesto, the queue system is really unorganized and we almost nearly stood in the wrong line as we had tickets and it's not clear that there's another queue for those, luckily after asking a few people we found it.

the club itself was packed couldn't move, drunk people bumping into you all the time. After not long i soon realised you can't actually see the DJ unless you have a booth!!! Booths all around the dance floor and people stand up in the booths so you can't see anything.... booths all around the balcony, so you can't see anything - dance floor is TINY because they want you to have a booth, basically the club is not designed for people who are true clubbers and love the music.... no this club is designed for rich people to spend money money money nothing to do with the music.

Don't go unless you want to spend a fortune on a booth and drinks at the bar are 4 times normal places.

Will never go again. Paid $50 to see Tiesto.... only saw his face for 2 seconds when I jumped in the air to see if it was actually him playing - couldn't see him other then that, shame on him for selling out his fans so badly.

Amazing night clubs, featuring several floors with different vibes and music and a luxury restaurant. Be aware, as with all the best spots in Vegas, the prices were very high.

Good music but drinks are over priced, no place to set down a drink once you get it, and bouncers are rude. So many drinks on the dance floor you can't move without one spilling and bouncers are so focused on keeping crowds moving making it impossible to socialize .

Completely a scam organization. We were waiting in the line for an hour and then gatekeep asks for absolutely ridiculous prices when we were told it was going to be on the hotel prices. Totally scam organization. Stay away.

Very nice place and fun, good music and loud. I love it here, I had a great time here ,looking forward to come back again!

Awesome club, great music. Try to get on the guest list before you visit as the entry price is expensive! Drinks are pricey but strong.

Great time. I go back every time I am in vegas! Line is slow getting in but its worth it

100F degrees and they want guys to we re long pants. Get over yourself!

Tiesto was Amazing BUT it was WAAAAAY overcrowded and drink prices were outrageous. Vodka redull on the rocks $23. JOKE! MGM you have lost all of our business.

Worst experience I've ever had in vegas. 20 dollars a drink, dance floor so packed you can't even dance, then when you try to leave it's a labyrinth of stairs and mazes. The guards had the audacity to call me rude when I skipped a line to gtfo of that place. Please avoid this place. Tell your friends to avoid this place. Get a bottle and dance in the streets, you'll have more fun.

Pretty good nightclub. Can be difficult to get a good view

We were recommended this restaurant, a bit secluded and hard to find on the 43 street (darkened windows and without a visible sign), but it was definitely worth a visit. Very good service and very good food. Seabass with honey and chili was exquisite.

Stood in what could be graciously called a line for two hours for a concert I had paid for while ten douchebags in suits and earpieces walked around on their phones and gesticulated at people behind us whose existence is uncertain. Long periods of restless crowds interrupted by brief periods of anxious girls being let in who correctly guessed the name of said promoters. Management unclear, night sundered.

It's a really nice club that's for sure BUT it was way too crowded. Water was $10, what the hell? Security sucked at their job. Was there for Tiesto, man oh man does he suck now.

If it's a DJ you like, go there, get lost in the awesomeness of the music!

Best club for the ambiance. Overpriced alcohol but that is very much expected!

Slightly small dance floor but if your point is to go have some fun, you definitely will!

Being a local here...how do you only have industry night "some nights"? You go to any other club....and they honor it. You guys used to honor it when you it first opened now you pick and choose? Way to give back to the locals.

I was here with a huge private party - we had the place to ourselves and it was awesome. Crazy performers and good times.

Very rude staff ... they sell tickets more than the capacity of their room....

Expensive, not the tickets (but they are too), the beverages!
Fully crowded, no space to dance. Changing sound tracks all the time.

Ignore the losers giving low reviews. Guys get a host and book a table then have the night of your lives.

Went on Saturday night to see DJ Zedd. Lines were long to get in and the club was crowded, as expected.

Bought the $100 Bar Card (which includes your admission), arrived at 1 AM, skipped the line and walked right in after a quick security check. If you're going to drink, GET THE BAR CARD.

No issues using the bar card in the club, bartenders were easily accessible despite how crowded it was. Your card will get you about 4 drinks with tips.

Dance floor is pretty small for the club size, alot of floor space for bottle service tables (also expected). If you want to actually get on the dance floor, you can't show up at 1 AM like we did.

We got comped admission cards walking through the MGM grand to go here, my friend got us on the "guest list", we arrived on time in dress code appropriate attire and we get let into the line. Suddenly a girl with an iPad walks up and demands $30 from each of us, we informed her that we had previously been put on the guest list and had free passes,and she informs me that the free passes are subject to price increases at any time. Pretty sleezy practice, at that point we just left and went somewhere else.

Too dark and noisy. Entry is expensive. And you need to bribe the security staff to get access to the VIP area, otherwise you miss the action.

Worst night club that I ve been, so many people inside, you can t even see that stage, if u wana go to dance floor u have to pay extra, very very crowded, if u want to have a good time u need to reserve a table
Rude bouncers
Don t go here

love this club! so much fun every time i go. good atmosphere and friendly staff!

Maybe nice on a weekday but the place is really small in perception because they have so many floors. There was no way to even move. They need to do a much better job of managing how many people they let in. It was so crowded and exit was so confusing that I was actually kind of scared to be in there! It was poorly lit. They need to light up the floors so you can see where you are going!!!! I also disliked the preppiness of it. Don't go if you enjoy meeting people. Do go if you are 30 or under, look beautiful, make a lot of money and can reserve a table.

Nice environment. 3rd floor lounge is amazing. Techno house music got old after 5 minutes, but it continued all night.

Had a great time because we had a server by the name of Elle. If you want to guatantee a great time then request her

Hakkasan has one of the best resident DJ's on the Strip

Hakk can be an amazing or terrible experience depending on what you're expecting and how you handle it. First off, it makes your city's best nightclub look like a shack. The main room typically has EDM, while the side room (Ling Ling) is usually hip hop. 12-16 oz beers are typically $12-14, cheap shots are around $25, and expensive shots or mixed drinks are even more. There is NOWHERE to sit unless you buy a table, which is extremely expensive, but tables come with the nicest views in the club and comprise basically the entire 2nd story rail. The warm-up DJ in the main room typically plays mindless repetitive house music until 1 or 130 AM when the headliner begins and the club really comes alive. The headliner typically leaves after 2 hours, and if there's time left the closing DJ is usually pretty fun. The main dance floor usually gets overcrowded after midnight-ish, so I'm a fan of dancing further back where you're not sandwiched in. The entrance line peaks between perhaps 1030 and 1130, and takes about an hour or 2. You can drink until you get close to the front of the line.

That was the worst club I've ever been to hearded around like cattle for an hour waiting to get into a place after being told we had a free entry ( would have rather paid 50 ea and got right in fml) Got over charged for everything. Bouncers wanting tips to get you back to your seat after a 10 min walk/shove Athon. Bouncer would not let our friend back to lower area where our group was at. Thanks for wasting my time Wes. If this is someone's idea of fun they need to get their head examined. Sitting around for two hours waiting for Steve Aoki to show up what a joke never even got to see the guy because our group got separated over just using bathroom. Save your money and go to 1 oak or jewel.

Chainsmokers! Book everything in advance and you'll have a queue-free and digg night!

My friend and I were banned from this club for simply standing in line. A group of people in front of us were smoking a "vape pen" and we were accused of being with their group. We asked to speak with the supervisor and he permanently removed us from here because "it wasn't just a coincidence that we were from Washington state." Complete stereotyping at its finest. Horrible staff and the supervisor simply shouldn't be working anywhere but behind a Burger King counter at best.

Terrible dj!! I know its Vegas and its a club but terrible music and waaaaaay overpriced drinks. Lame

More about selling bottle service than providing space for customers. Also, $100 for men and $50 for women is a joke.

Tons of tourists who dont mind opening their wallets. Be prepared to grease the bouncers if you want to get inside swiftly.

Neither the best vibe, nor a good service, but it is a decent option to party in Vegas.

Worst service and people.
I reached to the front of the line and then they told me to check my coat and went back to the line. ..really.. ..
I went back to my hotel.

Great club but it gets way too crowded and the security isn't very friendly.

Hakkasan isn't a place for everyone - it's one of the more pretentious club with a small dance floor, pushy people and super expensive drinks. $21 for a Red Bull & Vodka was a bit ridiculous, even if the club knew it could go with it because of the demand to be in the club.

Still, it's hard to deny that class acts they have here from Tiesto to Calvin Harris and the music is excellent with two floors - a hip hop and an EDM stage. Aim for the bars in the back that are less crowded than the ones in front and come early to get not only a good position on the dance floor but the mess of people that come through. Classy if you can make it.

Cool venue, but poor crowd control. The staff move people around to wait and then wait longer, and once inside same wait without reward. Couldn't get a drink... Indifferent customer service, but good people watching.

The place is very crowded, medium mainstream music, very expensive prices at the bar! In short .. not worth the buttoned shirt I wasted ..

Our experience was terrible! It was mine and my partners first night out in Vegas, having travelled all the way from Australia, we signed up to a VIP line, once we got there they refused us entry because of my partners shoes, saying they weren't appropriate. My partner had spent $200 on these shoes!! They were more then appropriate, random people we spoke to said that was ridiculous. We then went from the VIP line to the normal line where you had to pay the bouncers let us in straight away , only for us to be told it was a $170 entry fee! And he had no problem with my partners shoes. We ended up leaving as we didn't want to be at a club that treats its customers like that. We will never be back and I'll be sure to tell all my friends to never go to this club if they come over to Vegas

Honestly I have never been so offended by a bar. I was asked to leave the bar because the security asked me how many beers I had, and I told him 2 or 3. Meanwhile, every man behind me had had 5-6 drinks beside me at the previous bar and they weren't interrogated. I offered to take a sobriety test, and they told me it didn't matter and when I asked to go to a manager they told me there wasn't a manager. This is shameful.

you must have money to come to hakkasan, but if you do, you will have an amazing time. you must get vip

Great club if you go for the table service. However $650 dollars for a bottle of rum

Shoe discrimination , wasted 2 hour in the line and than rude security says your shoes are not allowed,

200 bucks of shoes are not good enough but 20 bucks shoe is ok ,

What a joke of a policy they have ,

Hotel allows any shoes and club within it has an issue of it's own ,

Such double standards .

Don't waste your money and wear comfortable shoes ladies, this is a standing room only venue, unless you have 1,200-1,500 to reserve a couch. Theres no where to even set your drink down. Drinks are so overpriced, $26 for 2 beers......had more fun outside of the club, with the casino dj .

If I didn't get in for free, then id give this a 1 star. Drinks are insane even for a night club. This review has nothing to do with the performance. Chainsmokers always put on a great show. The group of employees making dumb comments if you didn't tip them for handing people a paper toilet was rude and immature, but I guess that's why they have the bathroom jobs.

Very nice venue
Can be a little too crowded for some but overall had a great time there

Came here with friends on a girls trip. As I m waiting for my friend to finish talking to security one of their waitresses shoved me out of the way. No excuse me or sorry you can t stand here just full on contact making me stumble and almost twist my ankle. When I turn to defend myself same security guard that s been talking to my friend berates me for being in the waitress way and says I can t stand there. I say well I ve been here and you didn t say anything but now that I m rightly defending myself I m wrong. Basically threatened to kick me for not allowing their staff to assault me.

Very very packed with people, very expensive prices for drinks. Gorgeous nightclub throughout, lots of people with turnt up fun vibes.

Best place in Vegas , expensive but simply the best !

Wasn't impressed. The layout was poorly designed. Concert happened to be lacking
