5.2

The Back Latin Lifestyle in Portsmouth offers a lively atmosphere with delicious food and a varied music selection. The establishment is known for its professional service, making guests feel at home. However, some visitors have reported inconsistent experiences, particularly with pricing and staff attentiveness. The VIP packages and table services have been criticized for their value and the behavior of certain staff members.

Despite some negative feedback, many patrons enjoy the music and the overall ambiance. The venue also hosts Sunday brunches, adding to its appeal. While the customer service can be outstanding, there are reports of rude behavior and overcharging. Potential visitors should be aware of these mixed reviews before planning a visit.

Charged my brother $200 for VIP which includes nothing but a small room upstairs and his guests still had to pay 40 dollars per person to get in. When he asked the manager why the price was high, he was rude and said "If you want you can leave" ( He knew it was his birthday and he was celebrating with friends) . Also, when I was there a couple of months ago, we paid for a table that had no chairs and when we asked the bartenders they just ignored us. The music is ok but the price is so unrealistic for a place as small as this one. I really hope someone else opens a better latin club with better costumer service

Would leave a negative star if I could. All but 1 bartender ignored myself and my party, it was $20 a person to get in while the manager is judging ever women that walks in like it's a corral of livestock to pick from. Horrible experience, left after 35 minutes and will never go back.

They need to change their name to "The Scammer". If I could give this place 0 stars I would. They don’t even deserve the one I put up here. Don’t come here, they on some scamming stuff. I came in with a group of 5… they told us we HAD to pay $10 to get in and $10 for a table each… so $20 total each. They gave us a table with 4 chairs, and refused to give us another chair and refused to give us our $10 back for the the table. They told us that if they give us the money back we’d have to leave. The staff and owner was rude af. The drinks were overpriced as well! Just don’t bother, I’m sure you can find a better place to turn up. I feel bad for security, they was the only nice ones here. Smh they even got shut down! The fire marshal came in and shut them down. Smh

Absolutely the WORST "nightclub" / bar in the area. They charge different covers at the door depending on who you are. Literally watched 5 girls go in for free and hit the next group with $40 a person. Bartenders are rude and lazy, and over charge for drinks. The Dj is okay at best. The owner was extremely rude to my girlfriends. They have had multiple locations but keep getting shut down ( probably because of the horrible experiences and staff). Do yourself a favor and go else where! Oh and one of the 5star reviews last name Roldan is his family member= fake review!!!
