The management seemed disorganized, creating awkward situations for both customers and staff. While the employees were polite, they looked uncomfortable asking customers to leave tables after sitting for hours. Clear leadership and better organization could make a big difference in improving the experience, but I don’t plan on going back again.

I've always had an amazing time here at kaliente club been coming to this club for years love the drag shows and the drinks are very good and the bartenders are always very courteous and friendly for the comments that I read this is a gay bar so that's why there is not a lot of straight people that go there but for the straight people that do go there I've had friends that are straight have always had a good time there and a lot of my straight friends and gay friends still love this club and I am gay July 6 2024

We came here to have a good time and there was a miss understanding with the entrance with one of our friends which caused them to get kicked out. Then they started picking on another friend and said their ID was not theirs when it clearly was hers. We had to call the cops just to prove it was hers and yes it was her. She ended up with a big scratch on her arm because of the security pulling her out the coat room which everyone goes into Be warned that they need to be trained how to handle situations like this because the way they handled this one was all wrong.
