Wait a minute… you mean to tell me that this Hollywood club is both crowded AND staffed by cranky bar-keeps and bouncers? Unbelievable! The Vanguard must be the only one, Hmm. Strange, since every other So-Cal club that I’ve visited has been as empty as a graveyard, and the staff treated me like royalty even when I was blackout-drunk and buying my well drinks and Monsters with a credit card… one drink at a time… on a closed tab.

Although I have yet to try out the Vanguard, I think that I will give it a shot despite all of the poor reviews. Here is what I am going to do to guarantee that I have a good time.

Since I like to fly by the seat of my pants, I’m going to plan to go next weekend (about seven days from now). This should give me enough time to do some sensible things like… uh… oh yeah! Go to my bank/ATM and get some cash! $200 ought to do it, a couple of 20’s and some singles. This way, when I get thirsty I can walk over to the bartender and say, “Hey! I’ll have a drink, please.” At which point the bartender will provide me with the drink that I asked him or her for and I can pull the cash from my pocket and leave a tip (that’s what the singles are for). Remember, bartenders work for tips, they have a mouth to feed just like you. Cash makes them happy, which is good for you. Ever wonder why you never get service at a busy bar and it seems like the bartenders are just going back and forth between a few customers and ignoring you? Well, those are the people paying with cash.

Aside from just being good manners, paying with cash is sexy. How’s that you might ask? Well, for one thing, when you discreetly produce a big wad of 20’s from your pocket and slide one of them over to the young bar-maid, all the while giving that smile/wink that says “keep the change,” you come off as a suave mo-fo to your date/girlfriend/hump-buddy/bro/man-crush/what have you. This is good for you. Secondly, when you pay in cash, it shows to the person for whom you just purchased said beverage that you have many things… namely; a job, manners, tact, and the foresight to stop by the bank before a night out like big kids do.

So do yourself a favor and don’t be that chump who pulls out daddy’s plastic whenever you get thirsty in a club. Bring cash, use will call (lines are for suckers in case you couldn’t tell), and try smiling from time to time… frowning is ugly and it doesn’t improve your chances of getting laid.

The lines are so disorganized (tell me why it's all the way in the back on the "guest list"), $40 minimum on drinks for a card which is bull. It tries to come off as classy but I'll tell you, I've been to better clubs in the Inland Empire.

I attend the Alexis & Fido concert, we had Media Access... We get there around 10pm, concert was suppose to start at 9pm, lines where messy! Everyone was running around trying to figure out how to deal with it all PLUS know one listend to the security guards when they aske dto make one line! It took us a good 30 minutes before we got inside the club! Want more, at the VIP room NO ONE WAS LLOWED TO SIT down, it was only for BOTTLE SERVICE clients! UH!!! HELLLOOO VIP means VERY IMPORTANT PEOPLE! If that wasnt enough, all the security guards where on our behinds making sure no one sat on the stupid couches! Even down stairs in the main room! WTF! I have been to clubs where they at least have some booth available to General admissions and then the VIP has at least one free drink! Don't waist your money on this UNPROFFESSIONAL CLUB! go to Globos or even Floritine Gardens!

How do you spend soo much money at a club where they ripp u off at the bar, door guys are rude, place smells like sweaty armpitts and feels like a oven inside and not just that they expect you to move in a jam packed place and get yelled at...so next time you go and feel like that you should call the fire marshall cuz i will

THIS HAS BEEN ONE OF MY WORST CLUB EXPERIENCE IVE EVER BEEN TO. POOR SERVICE, BAR SUCKS AND CHARGE HEAVILY FOR WATER DOWN DRINKS (BTW DONT PISS THEM OFF CUZ THEY WILL THROW ICE OR LEMONS AT YOU AND THAN GET A SECURITY GUARD TO KICK YOU OUT) I ALSO FOR GOT TO MENTION THAT THE GUYS THAT CHECKS ID'S AT THE FRONT WILL HARASS YOU AND SEEMS A LITTLE RACIST. AT ONE TIME ONE OF MY FRIENDS POINTED OUT THE GENERAL MANAGER OF THE CLUB AND SEEMED DRUNK BUT LOOKS HOT THO. I SHALL GO ON BUT THIS SHOULD BE ENOUGH INFO FOR YOU NOT TO GO AND IF YOU DO DONT SAY YOU WERENT WARNED N NEXT THING YOU KNOW YOULL BE COMPLAINING. ONE FINAL THING IS IT ME OR DO THEY HAVE DA SMALLEST SECURITY STAFF IN HOLLYWOOD? I DIDNT FEEL SAFE THERE EITHER!!!!!!!

I like this Club... Guys & Gals Please come early to this Club... I never have a problem because I get there early 9:30ish to 10:15ish & I dress nice. No Baggy Pants. There is an ATM at the 7-11 on the corner. of Hollywood & Gower.

I go to this Club A lot, and what I tell my friends is "Bring Cash" and Get there "EARLY" 11PM OR 12AM IS NOT EARLY... The Guest lists close at 11 so if you get there at "11:00" Expect a long line and expect to wait... Really Simple.

P.S. Skinny Looser Brian at the Side Door is an BIG A-Hole.

Just paid $750 for VIP "bottle service" last night. In return I got NO bottle service. I paid for 6 people, but I couldn't get in the 6th person b/c he was running a little late. They had no appreciation for a client who spent so much money. The bottom line is they took my money and treated me like s#*! . And the club was so crowded you couldn't move inside. I'm never going to that s#*! -hole again.

Horrible service, horrible management, ugliest waitress, over charging your credit card ALL the time, the bouncers are all chumps. Do not go here. Help make the CHANGE. If everyone boy cots these clubs, eventually they will have no choice but to be respectful and nice, or go out of business. DO NOT GO HERE PEOPLE...unite and fight back against these cowards.
