The Crescent Lounge

Over the past year and a half, many changes have taken place at the Crescent Lounge. While not all of them have aligned with my personal preferences, I want to take a moment to recognize and commend Double D for the outstanding work they consistently deliver. I attend all of their karaoke nights, and the experience is always exceptional. The music played between singers is fun and well curated, their energy is welcoming, and they clearly put extra care into mixing each performer to ensure everyone sounds their best. Beyond the technical skill, Double D brings a positive attitude, a genuine smile, and a clear passion for what they do. In my interactions with them outside of performances, they have always been professional, respectful, and sincerely engaged with customers. Their dedication and care truly enhance the atmosphere of the bar! 11/10! an excellent asset to the Crescent Lounge.

I’ve been a regular customer on both Saturdays and Sundays for about a year. In recent weeks, however, I’ve chosen to stop attending on Saturdays and now only visit on Sundays due to repeated uncomfortable interactions with door staff. On several occasions, the door staff on Saturdays approach toward my friends and me felt unnecessarily abrupt and unwelcoming. There were instances where security closely monitored our table, removed drinks before we had finished them, and used a very aggressive tone with patrons at closing time. While I understand the need to manage a busy bar, the manner in which this was handled felt excessive and inconsistent with the otherwise friendly atmosphere of the bar. One situation in particular stood out, where a friend was asked to leave shortly after calmly questioning the tone being used with him. The situation escalated quickly and did not appear to be handled with de-escalation or clear communication. This left several of us feeling uncomfortable. I genuinely enjoy The Crescent Lounge and appreciate the community it creates, which is why I’m sharing this feedback. I hope management considers reviewing front of house interactions to ensure guests feel welcome, respected, and comfortable returning.

I loved everything but the smell of Pine Sol and Urine. I'm happy for everyone that loves it but I have a smell issue. Maybe closing the bathroom doors would help. The bartender was super friendly and so were the people at the bar. Good place it just needs some pretty smelling candles or something.

Mc is good. Service is pretty bad. Bouncers are worse. Clientelle worse than that. Go elsewhere. Do not deal with people who think your identity is a problem. Queer bar? Nope.

Love the vibes here. Bartender and staff were so nice. I ordered a shot and dropped it like an idiot and they gave me a new one free of charge. I knew right away I was dealing with a friendly fun staff. Loved it!

They absolutely play favorites and skip people who are not regulars. Definitely a cool and fun vibe, but unfortunately, they do not play fair 🙁 they didn’t let me sign up for karaoke even though it was 2 hours before closing which is kind of crazy. Had fun either way! The KJ and staff sing instead of letting patrons sing.

I'm sorry. I'm tired of being treated like an outsider by new staff. I'm tired of the regulars being ostracized, or being made to feel like they can't bring any criticism up without the owner banning them arbitrarily. Unless there's a lot of changes for the better, I won't be bringing myself or my friends to the Crescent, as much as it breaks my heart, as much fun as I used to have here. Absolutely completely different bar than the one I went to a year ago.
