China Club New York, Venue Description

China Club - China Club isn’t just another bridge-and-tunnel megaclub.  This longtime host to celebrities and high-profile parties is a staple in local nightlife--at least 90% of twenty- and thirty-something New Yorkers have made their way through its gilded gates.  Given that, security is no joke, with linebacker-sized guards every 10 feet. After the requisite pat-downs and ID checks, find an ample dance floor where you can bump and grind to hip-hop, pop and reggaeton. The VIP section wraps around the space, housing many-a-B-list celebrities and local regulars being, of course, ultra cool. This isn’t the place to be cheap. The cover is about $20, while a Heineken asks for a whopping $8. The best attraction by far is Jade Terrace on the third floor with an sprawling view of Time Square.  While the girl-guy ratio is fairly even and attractive, a night at China Club wouldn’t be complete without some fall-down drunken chick being carried down the stairs or a Long Island beefcake taking off his shirt for a fight.  Who says there's no more action in Times Square?

A Disaster! NY would be a better palce without this Club!
O god! Im reading on here some Victory2Multimedia workers still trying to hold on to hope that this place is alright. Just let it go! There is nothing alright about this place on no particular night. Save your money! Chances are they dont even care enough about you to worry about you poppin bottles or not. It doesn't make em move any faster. Victory2 were the ones that referred me to this ghetto and unprofessional club. So im mad at them too for even still doing business with this place. They going to try to earn my trust just to book B-Day bashes. See that's how they get you.You are just another number to them they dont care and do nothing when the experience turns out terrible. I should have known it was doomed to begin with cause check this out. Im the 1st girl in line with my other VIP ladies cause the line is so empty. The club opens at 9 or 10 and we was there by 1030 ( to get the free drink that by the way was not free). There was no bouncer at the door. Then when he finally got to the door he aint let me and my ladies in. Then I hear theres no female security to check the females. wtf! where was she at I will never know. Then finally its after 11 a girl looking a mess with an attitude come out with a clipboard. She lets my VIP guys and other guests that were in the other line go in 1st when I'm the birthday girl. Then theres so much wrong with that contract Victory2 send you. Theres supposed to be a complimentary bottle of champagne. Yea right they dont mention its a $20 mandatory tip. The dance floor was bare. The fools over booked VIP and VIP didnt even look comfortable cause they was standing up shoulder to shoulder. How is the VIP crowded at 11pm? They knew what they were doing they never intend to give it to you. Then another stupid thing was if more guests came through the night, I had to stop everything and go to the line with them. wtf! Getting the manager involved was no help who was rude and couldn't control his staff cause they was tripping! I left immediatly! Save urself a lot of frustration and dont deal with Victory2Multimedia or anything of Club China and Club Opera!

Ghetto! VIP was a zoo!
This place is so bad. I've been to clubs in all the five boroughs and this was the worst. First they mad us wait online and my hair was getting curly with the rain that started to fall. The security was having problems inside already and over heard him say that some guy had a gun. I was there last night early to grab a VIP section for my cousins B-DAY Bash. We were at the door at 10pm. They even gave her tickets with her name on it. We were dress to the 9's and I had my swarovski clutch bag that would of been stolen in a place like that. VIP was a zoo! How early did they get in? VIP was more packed then the dance floor! They were two girls dancing alone on the floor and they were a mess and already looked drunk so early. The manager was a complete asshole. They gave us a section in the middle of the dance floor because VIP was packed. Not only was it dirty but we had to fight off people not to sit in our section. We didn't stay not one hour. We bought one drink thinking we could try to make the best of it and it taste horrible! When I left I spilled the drinks all over the seats very sneaky and saw some girls sat on it. That was so funny.That was the best part to see those nasty chicken heads get played. LMAO Then I took my gum and spit it on the dance floor. Funny part is they gave us VIP bands to wear. When I left I ripped it off and said give this to the next VIP people and threw it on the floor. I did my B-DAY bash at Club TOUCH in June. So much sexier and cleaner. Everyone at China looked like s#*! and the ghetto girls were hatin hard. It was way better and cleaner then that WATERBUG filth CHINA CLUB! The girls look like they had an STD waiting to trap a guy and the guys look geeky. Thank god we didn't buy the bottles we were planning to buy. They lost out on cash and a way much sexier crowd.

Don't Bother
Me and my music partner recently signed a contract with victory 2 promotions to do a showcase @ china club on 5/22/09 - I was a little nervous after reading the reviews here and everywhere else on the net... but wanted to give the club and its promoters a chance because of the clubs history... The fact is though that every negative thing I read was true... Firstly, the ChinaClub doesn't even exist... It's now 3 different clubs, with 3 different names, 2 of which have zero signage... The bouncers really take there job too serious, the promoter had absolutely no pull with the club staff, and we had a really hard time getting some of our guests in the club... only to find out the advertised 600-1200 patrons was more like 25... 25 people that really looked like they didn't even want to be there... we we're slotted for an 11:30 performance... kinda hard to do when everyone is outside on line waiting for the doorman to acknowledge they exist... We ended up severing relations with the whole scene, grabbing our group and hopped bars until the trains started running again... The dishonesty displayed by victory 2 was sickening, and they have no idea how to treat talent, or patrons... avoid this hole at all costs...

they're rude
before you can even walk in line the bouncers start harrassing talking about u cant get in with this or that and then they have the nerve to tell some people the club is having a private party while they let a group go ahead in front of you. when u mention ur on a guest list they get mad..........and then everyone inside is butt ugly. so picky for no reason wtf??

not so special
Went there on a Thursday night with my girls. Got in easy....no line, no entrance fee (signed up for a guest list beforehand). The coatcheck girls were extremely sweet and polite. The barattenders were good too. Drinks are expensive, $15 per drink, but it is usual occurance for NYC clubs. The music wasnt good...I love hip hop and reggae but never thought it can be mixed in a way that you cant dance to it whatsoever!!! The crowd was..."no tough door" or "no door" style....we left in 40min and went to a different club.

Once upon a time...in a land, far far away, this club was hot...
then, after 2005, it went downhill...I recommend spending your money in a place that matters...-The Gramercy Room- formerly Strata, great dj, Beautiful Crowd of Sexy! And of course, a great bar that dosen't water down the drinks...I truly recommend this night spot for 2009!
