The crowd was sparser than I would have liked, however, and I think the space was a bit too big. Even with ~100 people there, it felt half empty.

We arrived shortly after they opened and it was excellent: great service, great vibes. We were so relaxed. We visited on a dancing night and even though we stayed at our table, it was so fun to see people of all ages, sexualities, and wardrobes coming to and from the dancefloor. Once it got busy, the bartenders were really struggling. It seemed like most of them were new because they kept asking one of the bartenders questions. One of them didn't even know where to find the drink I ordered (it was on the menu, and in the fridge in a can). Once all of the employees are as seasoned as the one they were all asking questions to, I think things will run much more smoothly. It also turned into a big party atmosphere which was fine with us, but many of the tables that were relaxing when we arrived were gone shortly after the music started. So just choose your visit time based on the type of experience you want.

One time they kicked me out because I sat on a chair that was not my table lmao. The security( i wish i knew their names) was very rude and he started yelling at me like if i had done something wrong. So i went out and I WAS THE ONE WHO CALLED THE POLICE to reported and they said they could not do anything because it was a private place and i got it. Then this past Saturday they kicked out two of my friends for different reasons one because by accident he drop a chair and the SECURITIES AGAIN approached him very aggressively. The other one supposedly wanted to fight but it was not true. ANYWAYS, I called the police again to reported this case, this can not be happening, people go there because here in Madison there is no another latino place not exactly BECAUSE Club voodoo IS THE BEST PLACE. Securities there feel the kings beating, pushing, and talk aggressively to customers. And I get it, Club voodoo is their place and they can do sh@2 about it but people rights are the same in a public OR private place.

It's big bar with a dance stage, with big screens and TVs playing music videos. The drag pageant was a lot of fun, as the talent was entertaining...the show went by so fast! The beer selection was mostly domestics, hard ciders/sodas/seltzers. I was happy enjoying some New Glarus Spotted Cow and Moon Man. One thing that caught my attention was the fish bowl drinks. A bartender told me they don't have a special drink, it's basically any drink you want with more booze in it...was very tempted to get and old fashioned in a fish bowl lol. They serve food here too. Didn't take much of a look, but it seems similar to a lot of other bar food. I've had friends that go here for karaoke too. Overall it's a fun spot and would check it out again.

Typical condiments provided: side of basil, chopped jalapeños and bean sprouts; jars of peanut butter, fish and oyster sauce, garlic chili sauce. It wasn't too busy but the bartender did tell us the place gets packed with students after 7-8p for that cheap, delicious pho. There's a menu of a few SE Asian dishes ++ that we'd like to come back and try (e.g. laab, papaya salad). There's also plenty of options for burgers, wings and fried goods ;) Didn't really ask about the beer. The other half had spotted cow (comes in tap and bottled). The service was excellent. Friendly, attentive and conversational 5+ The description of this place is under 'dance clubs'. Which is accurate because there is a dance floor. Didn't stay long enough to dance the night away. There's also the bar, separate seating area, and pool tables. Overall, really good pho and fried egg rolls; excellent service; fun and causal vibe. Unrelated note: next door, Terry's, has gyros! Who knew. And supposedly it's pretty good.

Decided to try this place as they are now associated with the "Juicy Shrimp Shack". Where do I…read morestart? First, the place isn't very welcoming, kind of like going into a barn. Service was OK, but not exceptional. The food - Shrimp Po Boy was pretty good. The shrimp boil was not. The boil is brought to your table in a plastic bag - no plate, no boat or bowl for the shells, no utensils. They do give you some cheap plastic gloves, which if used, make it quite difficult to peel the shrimp as they are slippery. The shrimp was cooked OK, but lacked flavor. I ordered the "House" sauce, "Hot". Not sure if they brought me the correct sauce as it was quite "garlicy" and had very little heat. The flavor of the sauce did not pair well with the shrimp and really didn't flavor the actual shrimp much. The shrimp was head on and not deveined, for anyone interested. There are no sides included with the boil. If you order the boil, a side of fries will cost you a minimum of $5.99. When they give you your bill, they have already added a tip and a charge for paying with a card. Maybe service would be better at some of these places if servers had to earn their tips. Overall - We tried it, but won't be going back.
