Lies and Deceptions ? there was no place to sit though every sit was available because everyone was dancing ?? What a friendly staff. They were very attentive to the needs of the Club Kids. What we found pleasurable was the how safe and Secure we felt through out the evening. Thanks FtWPD
Fun vibe & festive crowd. Multiple birthday parties and bridal groups and 80’s ladies everywhere.Two different zones with DJ and lounge/seating in both. One space is largely 80’s while the other is primarily 90’s. There’s a reservation only VIP space upstairs that was 100% vacant on a Saturday night, but it was still prepped and guarded if anyone wanted that velvet rope/more exclusive space.Respectful crowd. A group of gal pals went and besides some high fives from folks really digging our outfits... zero folks in your personal space here.
An absolute blast! The atmosphere and energy of a vegas nightclub with 80s stick, music and videos. 90s club adjacent. Sam the waitress is a riot, really nice and fun. Only slight negative is drinks seemed a little watered down, but otherwise fantastic. Great place for fun and celebrations. Make sure to reserve seats.
It's now conclusive: If you want to dance on the FW side of DFW, Cassidy's is the place to go. Last night at Studio 80 was fun, but it just can't hang with Cassidy's.Better dance floor - Cassidy's (they have a sand box and the floor is smooth - both floors at 80 were like glue and the back lounge floor is way too small)Better seating - Studio 80Better drinks - TieBetter DJ - Cassidy's, by a mile (the main floor DJ at Studio 80 ????, the lounge DJ at Studio 80 ????)Better service - Tie, with a slight edge to Studio 80 (excellent service from everyone)Better dance crowd - Cassidy'sBetter real estate - Studio 80Better amenities - Studio 80It really comes down to the DJ, the dance floor, and the crowd. Since this is a review for a dance club, that's how I'm rating it.At Cassidy's, the crowd knows what they're doing and the DJ knows how to mix it up to make all the demographics happy. If Studio 80 switched DJs and had the back lounge DJ run the main floor, this would be a much different review. The back lounge was jamming, but the dance floor is really small.If you're someone who wants to get down to "Safety Dance", "I love rock and roll", "Karma Chameleon", "Jack and Diane", and "Livin on a prayer", hit the main floor at Studio 80 and they'll give you all that and more. For people who like to dance, head to the back lounge, or even better, head up 35 to Meacham and go to Cassidy's.One criticism about the lounge DJ: he'd switch it up after one verse, and he'd do this even when the crowd was into it and singing/rapping along to a banger. Some songs you gotta get all the verses in... But still, song selection in the back was worlds better than the main floor.One tip for security at Studio 80: don't let people go on the floor with drinks. They spill them and make it stickier than it already is. The Cassidy's security locks that down, but again I think that's because Cassidy's is a more pure dance club where the focus is on dancing.Service was great and nothing but rave reviews for the staff, but I had to go three stars because I was so disappointed in the main floor music.
So as far as the club and atmosphere it was amazing. Felt like stepping back into high school.Now the drinks are WAY OVERPRICED, and you can BARELY taste the alcohol. Granted I don't want to drink straight alcohol but you should be able to taste it.I honestly don't understand the hat thing, but if that's the rules, then those are the rules.Now idk how anyone who's not from the area could get the chance to enjoy a new place when EVERY SINGLE TABLE, CHAIR AND COUCH IS RESERVED. I would imagine people have to pay a fee to reserve it but that still isn't fair or thoughtful of those who wish to try the place out.So in closing, this bar was Flippin awesome with the retro vibe, design and feel. But you need to bring your drinks down some. Then please be more considerate of those who wish to experience your club, letting regulars take all the seating isn't away to attract new patrons.
They were happy to take our $10 cover but failed to mention that EVERY table was reserved and you would have to stand and hold your drink all night. The manager has a cocky attitude and you can tell he is all about the money and not customer service. They have an outside patio but you cannot hear the music at all and you get to enjoy smelling like an ashtray. The place has a cool vibe but you will be treated better anywhere else down the street. Avoid this place!!!!
We have been going here for years and absolutely love it! Even though as everyone else has had, they have had employee turn over, but the new ones we have interacted with so far have been great, and our long time favorites are always wonderful! The atmosphere is great, great music and drinks.
I go here a lot and last night my card was over charged. Not sure what to do. They kept my receipt. Ugh. Love this place but not happy about this
$10 surcharge to get in, seemed like the girl I came with got it free? Lots of reviews saying they had extra money taken out of their account, but it's just temporary. It will go away after just a couple days. Fun theme and a great time. Didn't find anyone rude. Made some good memories
A close friend of mine had been disrespected by the OWNER on 12/17/2021 and a few weeks earlier. The OWNER told a nefarious lie to the staff to prevent my friend from patronizing the club. Public beware and a note to the OWNER; Karma will return to you.
