Hakkasan=Major dissappointment! Came here Grand Opening night with Deadmau5 headlining. Bought tickets ahead of time so was in a shorter line...waited maybe 5-10 min. With all the competition, I have to admit that Hakkasan doesn't even measure up to Marquee, XS or Surrender. I was so curious and hopeful that Hakkasan would be another great club. Not this time. Negatives: -There was no re-entry like all the other clubs offer -There was no tapwater at the bars -No outdoor patio area -The layout was too enclosed and there were too many sets of stairs -Dancefloor in the Ling Ling Room was quite small -The crowd as a whole isn't as attractive as the crowds at XS/Marquee -Another Asian themed club in terms of decor. There was nothing innovative, nothing new, nothing to really talk about It really was dissapointing that there wasn't an outdoor area. I mean come on! I think that's one of the best parts of XS, Surrender and Marquee. With the warm weather coming around, the option to hang out outside would have been a considerate addition. Sadly, there's nothing special about Hakkasan. The only good thing about it is that they have good DJ residencies but really, don't waste your time or money coming here.
