The staff was very friendly decorations was all over with the lights Christmas trees and more food was displayed in different areas of the establishment so you could be able to make your arrowing grab different items to set up was nice. My suggestion will be in the future to make sure your establishment also carries all types of wine, including sweet wine as well cause not everyone likes dry wine. Every time we were done with our plates or drink cups, someone was coming around, picking up all of the items. And also would like to have better music selection as well planned for our holiday parties. Not sure how their music selections and drinks are doing their regular business hours, but just make sure that the drinks are made to the specs of some of the drinks were just OK for the ones that they were charging $15.

I'm not sure if I'm just uneducated on sushi stuff or whatever, but 6$ for something that is barely bigger than a 25 cent quarter seems a bit too much. The sushi's were also a size of a quarter and wasn't to flavorful also the presentation was good. Wouldn't recommend unless you have money to burn or just want to post something on the gram.

I brought my sister--who is visiting the city for the first time--to Spin Room to celebrate. After paying a cover charge and attempting to purchase bottle service, we were met with a server and bottle girl who were rude, combative, and assumptive. The situation escalated when the server threatened to have security escort us out simply for addressing the poor service. While the head of security did eventually offer an apology, he did absolutely nothing to rectify the situation or address the server's hostility. As a business owner, I find it unacceptable that a venue would allow staff to threaten paying guests who are attempting to spend premium prices. An apology without action is meaningless. This experience completely soured our night and left a terrible impression of Phoenix hospitality. If you are looking for a professional environment to celebrate an occasion, steer clear of this establishment.

I'm a broke grad student or else this would get 5 stars…read more Pros: A dark, intimate ambiance with accents of color in geometrically-pleasing ways. Music was upbeat, house-ish type vibe, perfect volume for date convos but not really for group outings IMO. Staff and community seems friendly and healthy, and there were even little easter eggs on the menu to discover! And the menu? It was literally like a magazine, very entertaining while also informative. Cons: They charged New York prices for their cocktails. And honestly, it was a pretty new york experience in some ways, but if you're living on a budget this is not the place for you. Not a great place to go to meet new people IMO. Bar was a little cramped for me, but that's not hard to do, long legs and such. SUMMARY: This would be my spot if I achieve all my dreams and make a bajillion dollars.

By the time our table was ready, my fashion sense was vintage and I'd gone through two of the five stages of grief. * The Menu: It's a 60-page book. I didn't realize there would be a reading assignment before I could get a drink. I'm pretty sure the guy at the next table finished a PhD while deciding between the 'Duck Bath Punch' and a martini. * The Vibe: I asked for a "regular" vodka soda and the bartender looked at me like I'd just kicked a puppy.

The venue felt significantly oversold, to the point where it was nearly impossible to move comfortably. From where I was standing, I couldn't see the stage at all, which made it hard to enjoy the performance I came to see. Beyond just being crowded, it felt unsafe. The number of people packed into the space seemed excessive, and I genuinely question whether it exceeded fire code limits. People were standing all the way back into the bar area. Navigating through the crowd was difficult, and there didn't appear to be enough room for people to exit easily if needed. I've been to this venue since its 2017 opening and had much better experiences, but this event felt poorly managed. I hope they take crowd capacity and guest safety more seriously in the future.
