I came for Suda Americana night, Halloween and even dressed up, in attempts to show support for my friend and the argentinian event; There were fights that were never ending, and I was treated very disrespectfully by a man named Brandon, claiming he was the owner of Elevate. I felt unsafe, so I legged behind to catch the elevators down in attempts to not be near the fighting. I was being escorted by a kind employee, after voicing my coocerns of the violence. Upon waiting for the 5th fight to die down, I was urged by the security guards to get on the elevator with the angry crowd. I asked him if I could wait, because I didn't want to be part of the fight, when I was aggressively engaged by the "owner/Brandon" who got in my face and yelled, "This is not (my) club and (I) don't get to decide when (I) get on the elevator and (I) can't talk to a staff in that way." Several people asked if he was talking to me that way. Even the staff who was aiding me (I had voiced my concern many times, and he took pitty) was confused why Brandon had lashed out on me (seemed unhinged). I said, 'yes', and began to cry. Yes, I am sensitive, but I don't feel like I should feel unsafe in this environment. I do not recommend club elevate under this (Brandon's) management, and the fight, is the LEAST to do with the reason why. The coked out man, Brandon, who claimed to be the owner of the event tonight, should definitely reconsider how he speaks to his patrons, as I was just trying to have a good time and felt unsafe due to the people he allowed in his establishment. #ghetto Btw, ambulance just showed up... avoid if you want a positive night. Update after response: Brandon is the person who stood out to me as unprofessional, agressive and the biggest issue. He could have handled many thing that evening differently, even having the unruly crowd leave instead of allowing them to party on, if he actually IS the owner. Please address that, as he is the one who prompted my review.

I celebrated my bday here on Saturday 10/21/23 and had the most awful, horrible and scary experience. We from the beginning I noticed bouncers and door staff are extremely rude to people in line, if you don’t have bottle service they treat you with disrespect. When it was time for them to close down they were yelling bad words at us, basically being bullies, For no reason!! The bouncers/security took my brother in law in an elevator and beat him up and pulled out a gun on him!! They wanted to take him to another floor (4th floor I believe) to continue the beating and shoot him they said!!! Thankfully a friend of ours was with him in the elevator and although the staff tried to get him off he didn’t leave and was able to push the Lobby button and got out of there. Aside from that , the ghetto girls who are bouncers I think as well grabbed my sister from the back by her hair and dropped her to the floor twice. She tried to do it ti me as well but my cousin saw her in time and was able to spot her. And I don’t even know why she did this?!!! Unfortunately I didn’t read the reviews prior to booking but now that I’m reading them, it seems like this is what they do to their customers!! What kind of place is this?! We called the cops and they told us this is common in that place. Question is; how are they open?!! DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!!!

BUY YOUR OWN CLUB YOU’RE JUST A CUSTOMER NOT A BOSS” says the manager to customers when he escorts them out literally insulting clients cause he just making the money and don’t care First thing is they’re unnecessarily Strict Inconsiderate and don’t care about customers, I was with the main Dj a day before the Sunday party he put me on his guest list, but the club made me pay $50 to get in?? I literally put my name in his phone, the event closes at 10 I got there at 8:30, the lady said Guestlists ends at 6:30 so I have to pay $50. I was like what’s the point of a guest list if I’m paying more than an individual who paid $20 regularly all night. Also there no smoking so if you smoke you get kicked out and there’s the Manager the one who tells you to Buy your own club You are just a customer not a boss degrading customers with insults. If you want have a good time this not the place to be trust me you’ll See SOONER OR LATER maybe next time will be You or your Friends turn.

This place needs to be shut down! The employees are ghetto, disrespectful, and obviously lack customer training. They’re aggressive towards their customers off the jump. They took two of the guys in our group into an elevator, beat them up and put a gun to their head and still attempted to not let them out. We called the cops but of course “there are no cameras in the elevator.” They also told us that they are “not armed security” but they pulled a gun out so they definitely are armed. While the cops were talking to the bouncers, the waitresses were flipping us off from inside the lobby and laughing. Based on other reviews on Yelp it seems like this is something they do often. They’re often rude to people. They’re often aggressive. They often beat people up.

I won’t recommend this place to anyone ever because of the manager! Such. Rude, impolite and inconsiderate individual full of himself! We arrive around 8:30 unknowing the club closes at 10 order a bottle and slowly enjoy it. At 9:30 the idiot stops the music saying he’s got a flight to catch and puts everyone out bragging about it being his club and if we want we’ve got to go buy our club and set the rules. Disrespecting customer there! Can’t believe a place with such a manger is still open!

This place is always a vibe, with great music, and service. I've been here by myself a few times and recently for my best friend's 27th birthday with all our friends and family. We had so much fun, we didn't want to leave! The manager Teo is super friendly, helpful, and just all around great guy.

Lots of space and the vibe was great! I went on Halloween so there were lots of fun/sexy costumes and the music was definitely up tempo hip hop, afrobeats and a sprinkle of old school. Drinks were a bit pricey, but it LA so its expected. However bartenders were not stingy on the alcohol …

Beautiful venue with nice city views from the 21st floor. Bar staff was great! Drinks were strong, so be cautious. Lol Feels like a place to dress up for. Valet was my only downside. $12 is crazy

Awesome bar with amazing views of downtown Los Angeles. The bartenders were great. Although the drinks are pricey the ambience and atmosphere make up for it!

View was beautiful. There was no line around 10:45pm .. The vibe was great. But the DJ kept playing some of the same songs which wasn't that great.
