You never meet a stranger at Elysium! I have danced my a$$ off there many a night and will be back for more. Thank you for creating such an inclusive and inviting dance cave ❤? (Photo is not me but of some lovelies I met in the bathroom on the 20th Anniversary- 10-29-21)
We went for a bday and the small tatted woman bouncer said my ID was "clearly" a fake, but another bouncer then said it was clearly real?? She was super rude and said that because she's 32 and older than me she knows what a real ID should look like. Clearly NOT since mine was legal lmaoooHow many people do you think she has let in that DID have fake IDs? Terrible and extremely CONCERNING in regard to safety. She couldn't even get the flashlight they use to check to work. It was an 18+ event anyways.
The original Austin goth club! 80s dance night is the best!
Inconsistent with open times, bathrooms are scary. Ive tried for years to support this bar because they are the only one of its kind in the city.Last night I was willing to pay the $17 cover but they did not allow my partner in and instructed him that next time he should not have any drinks before coming there. This is the third time they have rejected him while allowing everyone else in. Never have I heard of a bar (on a street of bars that doesn't open until 10pm) not letting you in. We came from a work Christmas party before coming there, he was not wasted.
Bartender charges one dollar to open and one dollar to close your tab? Are you kidding? Is this legal?
This place lies about what it is. No way a premiere nightclub
Great girlsBYOB is awesome
Haven't been there since the early 2000s for 80s night they'd have on Sundays..but I still want to go back everytime I'm in Austin! I celebrated my 21st birthday there even....I'm now 38..love it so much!
Love this place. Best dancing and Dj's in Austin. I really hope they make it through the epidemic.
This place is full of ghosts. Someday I will be one of them.
