Went for the first time the other night…read more The good: the wings were really good, and while I unfortunately forgot our server's name, she was helpful once we were finally seated. The improvements: communication here is terrible. I tried reaching out weeks in advance to host a party. I sent a DM with no response, tried booking through OpenTable and was told I had to go through the website instead. I then submitted an inquiry through the website and still got no response. The only way I got any acknowledgment was through a friend who knows someone there. I'm not sure if it was the manager or owner, but the response was essentially that they received my email but since it was sent weeks in advance, they'd get to it when they got to it. That came across as very unprofessional. The day of the event arrived, and since no one ever followed up, I had no choice but to book three separate tables for our group. When we got there, the hostess pointed out that we had booked separate tables and said we should have booked everything together. That made no sense considering there's no way to do that online, and I had already tried multiple times to contact someone directly with no response. Our server was the only reason the experience was tolerable, and I wish I remembered her name because she did her best to make the situation better. I personally won't be back.

I give the Marquee a 5 out of 5. This was my fist time visiting this lounge and I am impressed…read more When I pulled the parking lot was crazy so I already knew it was going to be a time. The bouncers were nice and it was packed upstairs and downstairs. I don't know how we managed to get a seat at the bar but we did. The bartender was very smooth and attentive making various drinks with ease. It was a male bartender behind the bar vibing as well. I like feel of this spot sitting in here listening to live music . I was only in here briefly because I need time to prepare for this week, but I plan to re visit soon.

Her two friends came in and stood right next to me at the end of the bar and she started hugging and speaking to them. She made eye contact with me 2 more times before giving them free liquor in to-go cups and then they walked out with it. She then asked me what I wanted. Proceeds to overcharge me $27 for a bourbon and automatically added 20% gratuity. Nicole (the name on the receipt) she never introduced herself of course. Hospitality industry is not for you babes. No wonder the bar was empty!

I over hear the couple asking about brunch and mimosas and they were told nothing was unlimited or bottomless. Well that's why we came.

I have been a regular here for the majority of the time I lived in Charlotte. You should ask why…read morewould someone consistently show up to a venue unless it's among the best. (Hookahs are easily in the top three of in the city) Combining atmosphere, patrons and quality ... Taboo Lounge gets top marks. Don't let the negative reviews fool you as they all refer to a "cover." As a regular attendee, I want to speak on this: It's not a "cover" it's a membership fee enforced by the state. Also, no matter what you call it, it is a ONE TIME payment that will allow you access for a whole year. (If you are out of town the fee is actually half off) Being a member not only gives you access to what I consider the best spot in town but it also affords you a discount to the attached smoke shop. This shop compliments the lounge and honestly, if you purchase anything of note twice in a year the membership pays for itself. Drink pricing, compared to other spots in the city is $$ tier. This isn't your undergrad level lounge and that's a positive if you are older, however, it's worth mentioning that there are weekday specials to soften the blow. All in all if you want great value and ambiance, give this place a shot.

Music was nice and everyone was polite but I watched a lot of people leave turned off on the idea of that membership fee.

It has an upscale yet relaxed ambience that will remind you of Bridgerton with its royal flair. We went in the evening so the lounge was very dim, which was expected. The staff was very friendly, accommodating, and attentive. No complaints there.

(I probably spelled that wrong ) She took care of us, laughed with us, and kept the drinks coming. She really turned an ordinary and boring Tuesday into one of my best nights in this city. The music was a great mix of old school millennial classics such as T-Pain and even Eminem. But also played new songs. The place was kind of empty but that was expected. There were about 20-25 people there all together. Everyone was so nice and having a good time. There's pool tables, beer pong tables, and different areas to hang out. We stayed until 2am and the security even made sure to wish us a safe ride home. Everyone was welcoming and attentive. I've never had much interest in coming here before but now, I'm excited to come back!

They do have games such as two ping pong tables, dart board, jenga, cornhole and various other little games. We only stayed for about an hour or so. We arrived around 8:30 pm, which was early and a bit dead, but we had another place in mind, which is why we left. I feel like after 10 pm, it does get livelier and would be a good time if we ended up staying. I will definitely come back and see how it is later in the night. The bartenders were nice, and we had no problems with the bouncer at all.
