This is inside the casino We used to go here from time to time to get our dance cravings 10-12 yrs ago after dinner and before playing slots. This is the first time in a loonngg time that we decided to visit it one more time cause we know it's been renovated 7-8 yrs ago i think? We reserved a suite room and celebrated my and husband's birthday weekend. After dinner, we just had our pregame in our room to save $ on drinks before we headed to the lounge. The place was a lot better than the old one since it looks more spacious. It was not crowded for a Saturday night and that was really great. There's a few tables and seats downstairs but we preferred going upstairs and that's where we stayed. Only 2 of the 4 sofas/tables were occupied so that was really good. They play all kinds of music and I like the dj coz he knows what he's doing with mixing and playing good ones. However, the downside being upstairs is that noone or any of the staff will go there to ask for your order. You have to go down and get them yourself. Also, I noticed that they don't set rules for dress code anymore even though it says on the website. You see people with just shorts, shirts and sleepers and/or sandals on. So it was kind of a turn-off for me. They should require people dressed accordingly before they let them in. I don't mind to also pay an entrance fee ($10-15) This way they can preserve the place with class and elegance somehow. Just my thoughts. read more

Indeed, a beautiful place. Seating areas are first come first serve. There is a 2nd floor with seating as well but the walkway is pretty narrow. It's convenient that there is also a bathroom up there. Came here on a Saturday night. No IDs checked prior to entry. No cover fee. The place was packed! On their website, there was a dress code. When we got there, almost everyone is in normal clothing attire. We were unaware that you could literally wear anything! If you are in a group, even if you are not going to drink or get a drink, the bartender will literally deny your group purchase of alcohol if everyone do not show their ID. You'd literally have to step away from your group, just so they can buy their drinks. Find this really interesting. The music was nice at the beginning of the night but at the end of the night, mainly EDM. read more

Good little spot to avoid lots of crowds. Drinks are good, ambiance is nice, it's our go to spot after having dinner at High Steaks. Just wish they played more up to date hip hop and dance music. read more

Awesome Venue In the MIdst Of A Great "Playground" For Adults! SITREP Even a "party for 1" can find a good time here at Illusions when all you need is a fun venue, great bar, friendly people and some amazing music! THE SETUP I have been here on a number of occasions, some of which include when my buddy DJ Bryan Hawk (ASYLUM, FACTOR IX, THE RAGE, THE VAMPIRE BALL, etc.) has dj'd his pretty amazing and comprehensive set-lists (Retro 80s, New Wave, Top Forty, etc.). Illusions Ultra Lounge ("Illusions") has a lot going for it since it is not a stand-alone enterprise. It is in the middle of the Thunder Valley Casino, and that means: * Lots of Free Parking; * Wonderful Array of Food Venues (if you get hungry); * Great bars (if you get tired of the one INSIDE this club, but I don't think so); * Endless poker tables & slot machines if need to take break from dancing & try lady luck. ILLUSIONS And inside the club is where all the magic happens. = Great music system with talented DJs; = Awesome bar set-up with experienced bartenders; and, = Exquisit hosts bringing you your drinks if you are too lazy to get up from the comfy chairs. = And watch out for fun antics on the dance floor (such as "Can you guess what my tattoo says?") https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/illusions-ultra-lounge-lincoln?select=57jeaHk6RNdgJikzaMWAmQ&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w KUDOS Manager Kim runs a great operation and has some tremedously efficient staff catering to our every whim in the club! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/illusions-ultra-lounge-lincoln?select=XZ2n07D_D44X0n9OIAIBOA&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w THE LOWDOWN Illusions is a great place to enjoy the night life. read more

I was really impressed with the remodel of what used to be, the Falls Bar. #IllusionsUltraLounge Living in Placer County, your choices are limited if you want to go out to a nice lounge where you and your date can dress up. #StayClassy The decor is ultra hip, super swanky and sexy. With fluorescent lit walls encapsulating the circumference of the lounge, it gives an illusion of being somewhere besides a smokey casino, in the rural outskirts of Lincoln. #ThunderValley There are two levels of lounging areas with the top mezzanine looking down onto the bar and dance floor. We came here for a party last week and we enjoyed our time mingling and partying with friends. #YelpElite #Baller The drinks made by the bartenders hit the night off right with the perfect blend of alcohol and mixers. #Drank The cocktail servers were very personable and expedient, even though the place was packed with over a hundred party goers in attendance. The DJ played a great mix of dance mixes but unfortunately the dance floor was being occupied by a large open seafood bar, which was catered for this particular event. On Friday and Saturday nights, there is a $10 cover charge from 8 PM-1 AM with a dress code in effect. I would definitely come back again, this has to be one of the classiest nightclubs to go to. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you're not into the clubbing scene, Illusions opens at 10 am daily and you can take advantage of their lunch offerings from 11-4 daily. http://thundervalleyresort.com/tvc/media/Images/PDFs%202015/Update-TVCR-039-1381-Illusions-LunchMenu-5-5x8-5-R5-HR.pdf ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Also, you can hang out here if you want to get away from all the cigarrette smoke in the casino and have a crafty cocktail. There are some video slots available at the bar, if you want to try your shot at, "Lady Luck!" read more

ILLUSIONS - Thunder Valley Casino Resort's, three million dollar, newly refurbished ultra lounge. (Las Vegas caliber swankiness... 'And it shows.) Since moving back from the OC mid-last year, I've been hearing chatter of the area's casinos either from friends, TV or radio commercials but had yet to visit one. I'm not much of a "planner," the extent of most plans just focuses around me not being dead @ the end of the day... 'Generally. On my drive out to Auburn earlier that afternoon, I could not help but notice all the Thunder Valley billboards peppered along the freeway. So, it was an option... 'And here I was, my first casino visit since my "Back to the Bay" move. It was around 8pm as I was making my return drive from Auburn, I thought I'd do a pop-in @ the Thunder Valley Casino since I happened to be in the area. It was a Tuesday evening, the front parking lot was about half-full which was perfect for me as I'm personally not a fan of large crowds in general. 'Nothing says "Casino," like herds of chain smoking, booze guzzling senior citizens. - You have arrived. After a brief tour of the casino floor and cutting through the Thunder Bar, I ended up here @ Illusions. ILLUSIONS Hours: 10AM - 2AM daily $10 Cover Fridays & Saturdays (8pm to 1am) Live DJ Friday & Saturday (9pm to 1am) Non-smoking facility Illusions made its opening debut on New Year's Eve, selling out to a huge holiday crowd. 'Speaking with a few of the team members, many were very happy with their first night's turnout. The ultra lounge also has a strict dress code which is understandable after investing three million dollars to class the casino up in a attempt to elevate it to the next level. After all, it's aiming to establish itself as high-end posh, not bus depot fabulous. My first thought when I saw the name, Illusiuons, "A magic venue?... 'Cool." I wasn't sure if it was open to the public or a private area but another patron walked in ahead of me, so I simply strolled in right behind him. The first thing I noticed was the drastic decrease in noise from the outside casino floor. I walked in, looked around, and was immediately drawn to the center of the room by the guh'roovie light fixture suspended from the ceiling. I was reminded of the Harry Potter films, in which the Great Hall is filled with floating candles. (Yes, I'm a big nerd/geek, kinda comes with the whole "Artist Package." 'And yes again, I do go to the San Diego Comicon as well.) After a few minutes, I was approached by Dani, the host/waitress asking if she could help me w/anything. I told her that this was my first visit to the casino and just happened to walk into Illusions out of curiosity... 'The next thing I know, Dani's leading me up the winding staircase to the upper mezzanine where she gave me a brief tour/history on the newly opened lounge. (Which as of then, had opened its doors about a week ago on 12/31/14.) The decor/layout is very posh, from the design & layout, variable lighting system, to its rich texture and warm color palette. I can imagine how crazy-packed this place can be on the weekends. On Friday & Saturday evenings, there is a live DJ and dancing. (9pm to 1am) However, with that said, there is no officially designated "Dance floor," BUT that's merely a building code, technicality more than anything else. As nice and spacious as Illusions is, I could see elbow room being a challenge especially on the weekends. TIP: If you come on a busy Friday/Saturday evening, I suggest staking out a claim at one of the tables since that's going to be prime real estate as the venue fills up throughout the night. Illusions seems to be set up for a larger "standing crowd," so setting up base camp for your entourage early would be a smart plan. I took a seat @ the bar where bartenders, Mike & Brian, helped me navigate the drink menu. Apparently the hot trend today is smoke infused cocktails... So, let's try that! Round 1(Mike) - "Flowers on Fire" ($16) Okay; "different"; VERY smoky; good flavor Round 2 (Brian) - "Tea Garden Cooler" ($12) Good; refreshing; light; good flavor The drink prices are relatively standard for similar venues but IMO, a bit on the weak side, lots of ice. Both drinks were poured with a light hand, not as strong as I had anticipated especially given their respective prices. (Shrugs) "Eh..." Dani, Brian, & Mike - Mahalo nui for the aloha! Photo - http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/illusions-lincoln?select=hk6to1wLtbhrQ8e_b1wZ4Q#IIz4jjze2hMS1Je0OT1MIA It was an early Tuesday evening, not too crowded, light crowd, it was perfect. If I happen to be out in the area again, I could see stopping in here for a visit. Personally, I wouldn't drive out here just to gamble but a good steak, a couple of drinks... 'Very doable. BONUS: Bartender Brian's Cinnamon Bacon - Coat both sides of thick bacon w/cinnamon; bake @ 325F for 25 min; drip pan recommended (Thanks Brian!) - Big Aloha!

Probably one of the nicer joints at Thunder Valley. TV is a super dirty casino... It's kind of gross. This lounge is overpriced and loud. They do have a lot of stuff that you wouldn't normally find elsewhere, so there's that. They were also playing the Giants game while we waited for the Russell Peters show to start. read more

The new look of what used to be called the falls bar is pretty cool. It's sleek, clean and comfortable. Sunday- Thursday its all about happy hour. I think happy hour on small bites is from 11-4 and for drinks it's from 4-7. I stopped by a couple times last week for drinks. The happy hour is 1/2 off regular drinks, wine, beer and a couple drinks off their drinks menu. I found most of the drinks on their menu to be a little too sweet for me (just by reading the ingredients). I'm more of a goose and soda girl but the Julius caesar was refreshing. Both times I went the bartenders were really friendly and working so hard. I'll have to find an occasion to do the bottle service. Maybe for a birthday or something but it would be fun to check it out. Prices seem pretty reasonable too! Can't wait to go back to check out some of the food options. read more

Such a great improvement from Falls Bar! They completed renovated the place and took it from a typical smoky casino bar to a Vegas style ultra lounge. Don't get me wrong, I definitely had my fair share of fun at Falls but Illusions is a completely different concept. By far the best improvement is the layout. The bar is now positioned against the far wall which leaves the middle of the room open for seating and dancing. They also added on an upstairs area with seating that looks down onto the dance floor so in total the bar can now seat 166 people. The décor is swanky; stone floor, lots of mirrors, steel fixtures and red seating. The drink menu is a bit pricey but not more than you would expect from this kind of lounge. Glasses of wine range from 8-16 and cocktails are 10 and up. During the day from 11-4, they also serve small bites that include prawn cocktails, sliders (they are so good!), bacon-wrapped shrimp and oysters. I love any place that has oysters! One last thing that I always feel is important to mention is that the staff was great. The place was packed when I was there but the bartenders and the cocktail waitresses were still so friendly and attentive. So far, I am a huge fan and the group of people I was with last time agree. I would take Penny C.'s 1 star review with a grain of salt. Maybe Penny did have a less than stellar experience, maybe she just went on an off night, or maybe she was offended by women in tight short dresses ;) Either way, I will definitely be back! read more

Came here last night for The Night out at Thunder Valley event hosted by Metrowize. Free shuttle ride to and from Venue. Awesome Sauce!! First time ever going into Illusions since they've opened. Noone wants to pay in. C'mon now! Tonight was different. No cover charge and we had free drinks all night! Place was closed off for the private event. It was beautiful inside. Way better than the Falls Bar! More room and better décor! Music was great and people weren't sloppy. Overall a great place to hang out, drink, and dance the night away. read more

I called ahead of time to see about accommodating a group of 12.

They have a happy hour! And their prices are awesome during happy hour - but I would suggest going when it's not packed in their because they don't have the quickest service (even when it's slow). Also, their machines at the bar counter seem to be somewhat lucky! Cool atmosphere, nice to get away from the smell of the smoke (even though it's not smoke-free, it's less than the actual casino area). read more

Will never go there again. Went there last September for a birthday, we had a great time! Decided to go there again last night for another birthday it sucked! They took away the little bit of seating they had. You have to stand up or make reservations for the 3 vip areas. Don't know what that costs. There was one seating area close to the dance floor, it was taken. My friend asked one of the people in there why they took away the seating and she said "oh people like to dance". Really? You want people to stand up all night? Oh and the music sucked too. Will never go there again. I'm sure the changes has to do with greed. read more

During the day and most weeknights this place is the best happy hour spot at Thunder Valley with $2.50 Sierra Nevada and amazing signature cocktails. The staff is always quick, friendly, and so helpful. If a football game is on, skip the center island bars and make a trip to Illusions. On weekends when this becomes a nightclub I suggest you avoid it at all costs. First, they want at least a $10 cover charge. If you have never been in this place let me fill you in; it is half the size of my apartment! Who is trying to go "clubbing" in my kitchen (let alone pay $10 for the privilege)? There is usually FREE live music near the cashiers cage and gift shop where you can dance, drink, and be merry without dealing with an angry bouncer and middle aged patrons trying to feel young again. read more

Went there to celebrate a birthday and I didn't really know what to expect. While I was waiting in line I was told I might not get in because of my shoes because they were too close to flip flops. I thought that was ridiculous and should be clearly stated somewhere because that was not mentioned on their dress code online. Only tank tops, collard shirts, dresses and mid drifts were mentioned. Thankfully I didn't waste my time and was able to get in with my group, otherwise I would have just gambled and gone home anyways. They stamp your wrist before going in. The ambiance was a cool night life with a lot of pendant lights and blue colors. There were some benches to sit that weren't reserved. I heard it was over 600 for a table from someone. There was also a second story, but only VIP was able to go up there and look down. The vip bathroom is upstairs too so if your looking for a bathroom you have to leave and go into the casino. There is a small space in the middle were some people will join in to dance. They had a DJ playing current rap, raver and pop music, but there were a lot of pauses and awkward transitions in between the songs you can't really dance to. The bar tenders provided great service, drinks and were very attentive. I would visit again. read more

Stood there for 30 minutes and couldn't get served. Let the bald guy know tonight and he told me to f off. Went to high steaks and the other guy apologized profusely. Long story short: no wonder it's always dead here. You hire crappy staff, and don't care. Ps. The other guy got 20 bucks. read more

CLASSY PEOPLE BEWARE!!! This is where Walmart shoppers come to party!!!! OMG. Wait, OMFG! That's better! Went to this place with my husband and some friends last night. We were not sure what to expect but were hoping the place would be nice.This was a waste of 10 dollars per person. On their website they claim to have a strict dress code. Oh, what a joke! To get there, you have to walk through the smokey Casino. The place is very small and the dance floor is super tiny and way too bright! We live in Roseville/ Rocklin area, so I guess we have been sheltered from a lot of the weird/ trashy looking people out there. It's hard for me to write this review without sounding like a snob. I am really not a snob, but I have no appreciation or sympathy for trashy and vulgar. Unfortunately, this place was just that. I could be a lot more descriptive in this review but I will to limit it a bit. People were dressing and behaving in a very vulgar manner. Women grinding on guys sitting on the couch...Think cheap strip club with very unattractive women. Women with dresses so short you could see their butt cheeks, women with tight dresses looking five months pregnant and the list goes on. Anyway, I won't be coming back. We left after 20 minutes. We are not big into clubbing or going out at night. We usually appreciate a nice wine or jazz bar. However, we decided to try something different this time. I have gone to other lounges and night clubs in the past and they were nice and classy. People dressed up appropriately and the ambiance and music were great. I know people are free to do what they want and dress whichever way they like, but I would still prefer not to look at such things that are so offensive to the eye. I hope those vivid images won't come back to haunt me in my sleep. Stay classy, Sacramento! read more

Planning to go to Illusions for the grand opening on New Years Eve. Looking forward to the bar after it has been remodeled. Tickets online are $50 plus tax and fees which comes out to about $60. Not sure if you can buy tickets at the door. It comes with party favors and a glass of Veuve Clicquot Champagne. There is a dress code. No hoodies, baseball caps, cut offs, or tank tops. Friday and Saturday nights from 7PM - 12:30AM there is a $10 cover charge. read more

Was not impressed with this place at all. Once you pay your $10 fee you walk in to find there are no "open" places to sit. The bar is full of people and they have more "Reserved" seating than they really need. Would not let a paying customer in because they had shorts on, yet they let a customer in with a t-shirt and torn skater shorts? Cocktail waitresses seemed to be unsure about some drinks bartender made awful drinks. Falls bar was better than this place, just another way to rip off people. Over rated. read more

Money well spent! I took my mom here for her surprise 60th birthday party!! I worked with Gina P. throughout my entire experiences. Gina is amazing and I highly recommend her if you decided to book this venue. The prices for VIP are a bit pricey but the management team worked with me and gave me a price that better fit my budget. The entire experience was amazing and smooth. Gina decorated our VIP area, gave us juices and water, despite not having bottle services, and chocolate strawberries. My entire party was super impressed with the venue and stated they plan on booking their next event here. Oh the DJ, was really good too. The DJ was able to play great music based on the crowed and the vibe in the building. For those who don't book VIP booths, the cover is only $ 10.00. read more

Last weekend our group had a booth at this dumb place. They wouldn't serve us at the bar and later apologized because they mistook my group for another party that had been cut off. We had bought bottle service and the bartender was disrespectful. One of the guys from my group was upset and knocked down one of the rope poles. My buddy apologized but they kicked him out even though they admitted they treated my group wrong. Our whole party ended up leaving and security were slapping our hands away as we tried taking photos of their name tags. We went to Thunder often to gamble and have a good time but was let down in a big way that evening. 1 star. read more

Small swanky bar in the middle of Thunder Valley. We were the early for cocktails and service was great and the bartenders and both friendly. Not bad prices. I ordered a bulleit and a friend had Jameson the price is by no means outrageous. The 4 stars are for this bar on an early setting and based off service. Now to the bad and awkward. Ignore that little brief at the top of yelp that says "see and be seen" and unforgettable music. It's forgettable and you don't want to be seen with the crowd here. I don't hold it against the place, minus the cover charge, but what is going on here on a weekend night? We got a stamp to come back in later so we checked it out when the DJ came in. I would not recommend paying cover charge to come here on a Friday or Saturday night. Coming from an area with great dance clubs and night scenes that don't charge cover, this place is a poor excuse for a dance scene. The DJ was off with his music choices and it was reflected in the half empty "dance" floor. There's no proper dance floor, just in between the seats in the middle. There were some raunchy people thrusting on each other in the leather seats. Mind you, it wasn't dance. Just an awkward lap dance happening in the room. The clientele isn't somewhere you'd want to be seen, so bring a group of friends to make it fun. VIP tables and the upstairs sat empty with an awkward amount of security reminding you its there, and empty. Overall, great venue and staff. Lose the cover charge and bring a group of friends to create your own atmosphere. Just avoid the awkward people that looked like the rolled in from the neighborhood Walmart. read more

If only I could I would give this place a zero. I'll try not to rant about the Security personnel here and how inadequate they are. I've been in this "lounge" twice, the first time was this past summer for a birthday celebration. There was a Caucasian female at the bar and she made herself appeared to be by herself most of the night. Myself and a few friends approached the bar, made small talk with her and some dude approached us demanding my male friend to pay up!! Almost started a fight so we left. This second time around, a female made her way towards me and my female friend, in attempt to dance with us while she had a male with her. I made sure she knew I wasn't having that. It's obvious when a random chick make her way around to each female group trying to include herself into the group then attempt to pull them towards their dude (pimp). Observe and watch...if it ain't a recruiting business I don't know what else it could possibly be. Be warned. read more

First time partied in the bar. What a joke! I'm not sure if I'm too old but the whole vibe tacky! Went to a Bday party there and first had to pay a $10 cover charge. I was OK with that thinking that would filter out the riff raff. Some of the party got there early so they could save an area for us to sit together. I don't think it was necessary because the place was empty. It was about 8:30pm at the time of arrival. We got the first drink without any incident. About 15 mins into our stay the waitress comes over and asks can your party move over because we need this area for another party. So a little confused we move to another area. We look over to our original area and notice there are about 5 people sitting there. They didn't pay a reserve area so we were wondering why they were given that area. We let it go and 5 mins later the waitress comes over and asks if we can move out of the area and back to the area we were originally sitting. We asked really why? She said so sorry it was a mistake and this area is reserved for somebody who paid for it. Talk about annoying. We just wanted to party and drink! So we move back to our original area. We settle in and drink and dance. Tip - do not leave your drink while you dance because it will be gone when u get back. The drink could be half full!!!!!!! This place needs a reality check! Hello you are not Vegas! !! Check the service and attitude and you might be a go to place!!! read more

This is a review based on going to Illusions on a Sunday afternoon. I really like what they've done to this place. The decor is retro yet fresh and the bartenders are friendly. I was pleased with my happy hour cocktail. It was $5 and was a premium bourbon specialty cocktail. Overall, I like the space of this ultra lounge...it's not too big or small. I think gatherings and mingling oftentimes are better in not-so-cavernous spaces. This was just right. I plan on bringing friends here. Might even splurge a little and do the bottle service thing. The cost isn't bad at all for a small party. read more
