Esso

I am no longer a big club person, but when I wanted to have a good time: Esso it is. Now if you don't want to pay or wait an hour in the line, do not come here. They will hold the line. The spot is on the hood side. So if you are not a fan of ATL music, hole in the wall reggae spots, I would also pass. I give all this disclaimers, because you have to know what to expect and appreciate what they are offering. Amazing music, great dance floor, and good people. It is nicely decorated inside and you will have an amazing time, once you get it.

STAY AWAY!!!!

PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would give this place zero stars if I could!!!!

Ok...so we went to see Gucci Mane perform so I was expecting to have a great time. The "security guard" told me not to stand by the bar if I wasn't buying drinks. I clearly had two drinks in my hand, & it was packed, I'm talking elbow to elbow so there was literally no where for me to move.

When I told the dumbass security guard I couldn't move, he got in my face, and yelled at me saying "OH YOU GONE MOVE, OR YOU GETTING THE HELL OUT"
Of course I yelled back, I refuse to be disrespected. He was so close to me that we were touching. This was a huge 6' 5 security guard yelling at a group of females.

I didn't leave because Gucci is my fav artist and I came just for him. my friend took one of her heels off to adjust the straps and that's when the same security guard came over waving his flash light and yelled "YOU SEE ME TELLING EVERYONE ELSE TO KEEP THEIR SHOES ON SO WHY WOULD YO STUPID ASS TAKE YOURS OFF?" at that point we had enough.

Gucci had already performed so we cussed out that disrespectful robo-cop and left.

I have friends that come from out of town and always want to visit this place. I tell them hell no. I would tell my worst enemy hell no!!!!

I hope this place gets bombed, blown up, or destroyed!!!

It's Carnival time in Atlanta again and the parties have begun! On Thursday night Hubby and I started off our weekend with dancing and palancin at Esso Night Club in Atlanta. It was Flag Party time so that means bring the flag of whatever country you want to represent and let the music take you there. I was deeply impressed with the vicinity. It's nicely decorated, large, has multiple areas either to dance, lounge, and or catch your breath. It surpassed my expectations and we enjoyed our time thoroughly.

Upon walking in you'll notice a fairly large bar, nicely lit with blue neon lights surrounding it. A small open area to your right where some people were dancing and a DJ booth. The sounds coming from the booth was pumping and it hit me immediately. This is something I love to experience when walking into the club. It gets me going right away. To your left are the restrooms and another open area that could be for dancing or just hanging out. Right in front of the bar sits soft couches and some small tables that looked sectioned of as if it were VIP. The reason I say that is because there are similar areas further inside the club that are VIP. I loved the double entrances that lead into the larger area of the club itself. Here is where you'll find a dance floor that is accessible by stairs, two more large bar area, multiple VIP sections, and a DJ booth that sits high above everything else. The club was well lit, not dark and dungy feeling. Neon light in many colors lit up the dance floor, bars a seating areas. They also provide a decent sized finger food menu and drinks galore. Towards the back there are doors that lead to the lovely outdoor/rooftop/patio area where you'll find it nicely decorated in all white everything. From the tables, to the chairs to the couches, to the drapes that separated each area for an intimate private setting. We ate our shrimp kabobs and fries out here.

Smoking is aloud inside the club but because of it's size you can hardly tell anyone is smoking in there. Believe me, I've been to those clubs where your whole wardrobe and hair smells like smoke when you leave and this is not one of them.

Everyone looked like they were having a good time and had their flags in their hands waving it around, representing their country, and dancing to the beat of the music. It was live! We were live! The party was live and was not done until 4am in the morning.

Club Esso is usually a hip-hop club so the vibes will definitely be different. All I can say is give it a try you just might like it.
