text: You know what This place are not half bad At least not as bad as how all the reviewers have been making it look like But it seems like everyone is bitching about the general inexperience of the security staff above anything else I got let in pretty quickly and even had a nerdy stocky lady bouncer give phone directions to my friends over my phone without attitude or troublennIf you read my other reviews you know it is very difficult for me to speak positively on stuff like this in general So congratulations Hakkasan You did not piss me off And you put a smile on my facennAsians almost never smilennHowever we did have comped tables thanks to a friend that has close connections with the senior staff in this venue So I am reviewing this place based on a pretty concise VIP treatment nnOur host is fairly attentive and so is her busser Never once have I ever needed to ask her to fill my drink when I was going dry Which was a issue I had at Oak where I had to fill my own glassesnnThe best way I can describe Hakkasan is that it is just like Tao It has a Asian theme and has a restaurant downstairs However it is not as douchy as Tao Now given I seen a few catfights between girls jump off right in front of me in the hip hop room and this being my first day it does embarass and make the club look bad But hey at least I did not get into a fight for the bathroom line like I did in Tao read my Tao review because there are more than FOUR bathrooms with NO LINESnnAnother reviewer is complaining about the bitchiness of Asian girls in the club Personally I never had this problem because not only do I NOT talk to random Asian girls that are looking for their rich White Knight with a green card but I have my own friend circle of hot Asians with me p nnThe key is building your hot friend networks OUTSIDE the party scene because anyone who thinks that they can get laid on the first night of meeting a girl at a club will just catch a nasty case of herpes and HIV if they are unfortunate nnI enter the club with people I know and leave the club with the same folks And for anyone I met that night ill hit them up the next day after giving them time to think about me nnThats how you stay safe and not missing any kidneys the next morning
