Honestly my favorite social space I have ever been to!…read more I flew all the way to attend an esports event, which was ran great through the venue. When guildhouse opened to the general public in the afternoon, the atmosphere lit up. It's so casual and just a nice place to come and relax with your friends. There are a ton of amenities, whether it's board games, video games(both PC stations and console stations), and esports streams displayed the whole time. Such a great place if you want to avoid typical bars and want a gaming or anime themed environment!

We had a table and I noticed that the staff kept on checking how many used glasses we have and replacing them without us asking them.  The downside: the floor was sticky all over the club. We got there around 10 pm and from the moment we stepped into the club, our shoes kept on sticking to every square foot of the club: entrance, dance floor, at the table, near the table.  Not sure why, because I've seen staff wash all the slipped spots right away

Would not recommend coming here. Came here on a Friday at 10:20PM, thinking it would be open since…read moreon Google it mentioned that it opens at 9, they actually open at 10:30 and we got turned away. Came after it opened since there's no cover and no one was there and we got a drink and stayed there for around 30 minutes. No one came during that time and we left. In terms of drinks, got an expresso martini for ~$14 made with Nescafé instant coffee powder served in a disposable plastic cup. Overall, would not recommend.

My schedule can be pretty restrictive but I was able to find a co-ed softball league on Monday…read morenight to play. Were it not for ZogSports, with the level of organization and follow-through, I would not have played softball at all last year (for love of the game!) nor made some solid connections that have endured past the end of the season.

This review is purely for Zog's volleyball league. This league is extremely beginner level. Lots of…read morework teams and new players. Occasionally you will have a couple people who come into this league knowing how to play volleyball but are there anyways for a ego boost. If you are new to volleyball, read here. Yes this league may be a good starting point as it's very beginner level play, it's good for work teams and meeting new people. But you won't want to be here for long. There are the occasional try-hards that will come into the league to feel good about themselves by hitting hard and running plays on a net that's lower than women's height. Another downside is that some of these players think they can play but in fact they are very dangerous and make it very unsafe. Landing under the net and causing ankle sprains when you block is very common here. So play smart, watch out for others. If you have some volleyball experience and understand the game, read here. This league is very poorly ran. You have one ref that does not understand the rules of volleyball. No calls are made, clear doubles where the ball is spiraling, crazy players who jump and land under the net, players touching the net and lifts. You call your own lines, so in and out calls are all on you and the other team. The ref literally is there to just blow the whistle for serve and then flip the score. They dont even have anyone setting up the nets for you as well, so you need to set it up yourself. The net is literally lower than womens height. So if you're here playing with some new friends who are learning to play, have some integrity to play to the level of others and be safe. I played in this league before it became Zog (Dynamic sports) id say it has changed but not for the better. Same stuff as it was 5-6 years ago. If you are looking for some better play there are other leagues out there. Campbell Community center used to have a good one they may or may not still be running. Then there's IVL if you're looking for competitive play. Zog by far is the most expensive league and the total amount of games you play in the season is less then all these other leagues I mentioned. So if you're factoring bang for your buck. Zog is definitely not that.

My co-founder signed our small business up for a business accelerator run by the Dojo. I was a bit…read moreskeptical, but I ended up really enjoying the experience. The accelerator had a wonderful sense of camaraderie and was a supportive environment in which to learn business essentials, and to learn from each other. Outside the accelerator program, the Dojo is a really friendly, grass-roots environment in which people can hang out, do work, and share ideas, and the people in charge of it are very passionate about it. (As an example of it being a friendly place, one of the regulars there impromptu-shared delicious bacon sandwiches that he had just barbequed.) I've grown very fond of it.

I like what Hacker Dojo has to offer. It's a fair coworking space with access to conference rooms.read more

Great historical space for events!…read more I've been coming here for a few years. From book talks with the authors to soirées. Its main feature is an open auditorium and stage. There are a few cozy sitting areas as well. It has a great historical background built in 1929. A cool spot for events.

The group is diverse with members aging from their 30s to 60s! They com from different background, ethnicity and culture. The group tends to bond during dinner and wine social. None of the members talks about religion and politics. At the end of the trip, I felt like I known these people I met I just met all my life and I'm always looking forward to the next trip.

Money hungry is written all over this service's face. As another reviewer says, "She never returns calls back." I can add that she does not even respond to emails. She is always, "on vacation", "family emergency", or some other lame excuse. I'm sorry, but if you have your own business, you are never on vacation. Cell phones, laptops can connect to a wireless carrier in less than a minute to answer an email. Even answering an email takes only a minute. Same with returning phone calls. I prefer emails so there is nothing lost in communication. Send a message by not doing business with these money hungry people.

The organizers do a phenomenal job of planning events - every event was well thought out and helped to meet different people in the cohort each time.

I highly highly recommend this!

The owner was extremely rude and unwelcoming. I walked in with my two young daughters, ages 5 and…read more6, to inquire about a kitten, and we were treated very disrespectfully. She was dismissive from the moment we arrived and was quick to shut the door in our faces. I can't say for certain whether race played a role in how we were treated, but the interaction left me with the strong impression that we were not welcome, and I felt that there may have been discriminatory behavior involved. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this place. There are plenty of businesses that understand the importance of treating customers--and especially children and families--with basic courtesy and respect.
