I am not really into the whole club scene much anymore, but my friends and I really enjoyed it. The music was a great mix! We were there for a bachelorette party and had a lot of fun. We had called to get on the list and the only perk for bachelorette parties is the bachelorette gets in for free. Nothing for the other girls. It is a little much to get it. It is $25 for girls, however, before going in find the girl walking around and sign up to get a Borgata card and you can get in for $20 instead. My friends got their card and also a voucher for a free drink. I already had a card so just had someone at the tables make me a new one. Drinks are pricey too ($8 for his light) but you are in AC. We did find a bunch of really awesome guys who had table service and my one friend just drank their alcohol. Â Great time!!
Review Source:If you like da club then you will probably have a good time. I'm not into the club scene at all but sometimes you make exceptions. Â When you're in AC and you're sick of looking at old women gamble their retirement plans away in their motor wheelchairs, a little dancing will provide an alternative.
As expected you'll be surrounded by some terrible drunken people in line, girls whose toes hang out of their heels like shrimp cocktails, and a cover. Â I think it was $20 for guys and $10 for gals. Â
Drinks aren't ridiculously over-priced but they're not cheap either. The music was good at the beginning. Â I think when the liquor started to wear off and my dogs started barking I realized what I was up against. Â Sloppy drunk girls screaming at their jump offs in the bathroom stall over the phone, girls crying in a corner, guys doing some crazy Jersey Shoresque type dances, and hit songs that I had never heard about. Â Oh snap. Â I'm getting old.
The last straw was when a due stepped on my toes and another one slammed his glass down on the floor for no apparent reason completely getting the left side of my body soaked. Â Â
It's a club. Â What do you expect? Â Good time overall until my beer goggles fell off.
I came here for a friend's birthday party with mostly girls and two guys. We booked a room and decided to go clubbing after drinks.
Dress Code: If you wear a dress and heels, you're all set! They also let in my friend who wore nice pants and a dressy top. I don't think the dress code is strictly enforced compared to NYC clubs though because I saw some pretty casual people inside.
Line/cover: There was absolutely no line but we ended up going after midnight. Guys were priced at $20 while girls were $10. The guy checking IDs gave me hell about having an expired license but luckily I had another form of identification.
Venue: The place had girls dancing on elevated platforms throughout the night. The dance floor was packed! My friends and I eventually got up on the platforms where the dancers were and did our drunken thing up there. One random guy tried to climb up to join us but a bouncer pulled him down!
Crowd: A variety of people. Seemed to be more males than females that night though. Stick to your girlfriends and dance in a corner if you don't want grabby hands coming from behind you.
Music: We had a good mix of songs! Some oldies blended with some new hits. The lineup wasn't boring and repetitive. There was definitely songs you could dance to so I definitely had fun.
Staff: Mostly pleasant. No complaints from me.
Cute guy levels: Meh
I'm more of the bar-lounge-dayclub (pool party) type, but I made the exception to go to clubbing at Mur.Mur because it was girls' weekend and we wanted to stay within our hotel. (Long story short: I love heels, but I don't like to be standing in them for a long time) I guess we got lucky with the $10 cover charge for each of us vs. $20 even though we came after midnight, but there wasn't anybody special DJing that night and there wasn't a single person waiting in line to go in. Â We didn't have an issue with ID checks -- it was swift and we were good to go.
There's escalators that take you up/down to the club. Â The layout is pretty much a square, with a bar along one side. Â The dancefloor is situated in the center with tables and go-go dancers surrounding it. Â Drinks were decent (although the orange juice with my Stoli tasted questionably sour -- as if it was expired or something) and priced at an average of $10-12.
The music was flat out terrible. Â It was a mix of hip-hop, house, and 80s/90s. Â Excuse me Mr. DJ, but have you ever heard of a transition? Â On the other hand, the crowd was probably 75% guys... but the whole dancefloor was overcrowded. Â It was hard to dance through one song without getting bumped into. Â Lets face it, I was in Jersey, not LA, Vegas, or New York, where the 1:1 ratio is typically mandated.
ah the box club.... the place is a square! you can't get lost (i hope).
cover is $20 bucks-- i guess it's a good alternative when HQ charges like $40+ on sat nights... but don't expect too much. Â also be prepared to smell vomit at various parts of the square...
Havana Brown is a regular DJ here and it's always entertaining to see her do that pelvic thrusting. Â that girl gotz spunk.
fair spot to hit when u hate long lines and don't want to pay more than a $20 cover.
Mur Mur's DJ played a great mix to dance to last night! We had perfect timing because when we arrived just before midnight there was plenty of room for my and my friends to dance together on the dance floor but by 12:15 we were rubbing shoulders with strangers.
The excellent music selection made it worth the $20 cover and $10 drinks. The drinks were mixed well and the bartenders were friendly. For a casino bar I find the prices average. The dance floor was packed but service at bar was very fast!
Definitely a better club than I expected! Located in the middle of the Borgata casino floor, you have to take an escalator downstairs and that is where the club is located. Came h ere on a Friday night to celebrate a friend's birthday and the club was poppin'! Music was great as it was a mix of classic, 90s, 2000s and current hip hop.
Dance floor is also quite spacious, although it was very verrrrry crowded. Unfortunately, you can't help but bump into someone every move you make. I was there for a few hours with friends and every second I was on the dance floor there was someone hitting my back or someone wanting to walk thru. The crowd was young, trendy, but from what I heard from the girls I was with there were a lot of skeeeevy guys trying to grind up on them from behind or touch them. Other than that, the club was awesome! Would love to come back to the club one day.
Heels. Glitter. Questionable men. Incredibly revealing, slutty clothes. Loud boom boom music. No, it's not a Ke$ha concert, it's a Saturday night at Mur.Mur! I had an idea what to expect from reviews, so I came prepared in the following ways:
1. Wear closed-toed shoes. If you're dancing, you WILL get stepped on by at least 3 girls in stilettos.
2. Drink amply ahead of time (drinks are pricey, duh), but not so much so that you cannot stand your ground in the stuffed, fog-covered dance floor.
3. Fully charge your phone ahead of time - service is bad and will drain your battery.
4. Take note of the nearest exit and plan to meet your friends there at a predetermined time, since they will likely be grabbed and encapsulated by the nearest bachelor party.
5. Be prepared to be grabbed from behind and gyrated upon. If this happens, break the chains of arms and do NOT turn around!
I'll start by saying I love to dance and have been to a lot of clubs. Â So, when I found myself in AC on a Monday night, I knew I had to go to Murmur.
Or not.
I got there around 11:15 after one of the worst Jitney rides ever, but that's beside the point. Â The line was very, very long, and not moving much. Â Everyone in line was already quite drunk and proportionally obnoxious. Â In the time I stood there, I actually witnessed someone vomit. Â Classy.
I'm not old, but I felt old standing in that line. I was the only one not dressed like a hooker, not to mention the only one who could hold her liquor. Â Basically, everyone in that line was a hot mess before even getting into the club.
I realized after waiting for a while and moving all of three feet that I did not want to be on a dance floor with any of those people. Â I felt like I was surrounded by the cast of Jersey Shore, only 100x worse. Â I am from NJ myself, and used to the particular quirks of the state and its people, but this was just way too much for me.
So, hey, if you're 21 and like being blackout drunk before midnight, go to Murmur. Â If you want to spend your whole night pulling your comically small dress down so your lady parts aren't on full display, or wishing you hadn't worn your ridiculous impractical shoes, go to Murmur. Â If you're an entitled man-child who thinks he's hot shit because your mom let you have the credit card for the weekend, go to Murmur.
If you actually want to mingle with half normal people and get a good night of dancing in, go somewhere else.
Oh, murmur. I expected so much more! I thought this was supposed to be the Vegas-esque club of AC? Pssh. I've been to tons of clubs in Vegas and AC, and murmur sunk to the bottom of the list like the Titanic. I was only there 30 minutes, but what I dealt with ensured I will never return.
I went for murmur Monday about two weeks ago and was thoroughly disappointed. I don't understand why there is a bouncer who, despite watching you pay your cover charge, immediately MUST see your receipt like he caught you sneaking in, and yells at you if you do not produce it fast enough?! Sorry buddy, but I'm trying not to lose my ID and cards, you can chill for a second. You're a receipt checker, not the President, relax.
After we finally got in, I was less than impressed. Shaped like a small, black box, the bar level was dead. We breezed through, and then almost got knocked out trying to get down the ramp to the dance floor - if you could call it that. Maybe since I was stone sober, it didn't appeal to me, but the dance floor was more like a sardine tin of drunk idiots slamming their bodies into one another and attempting to kill you.
One we all safely made it down the ramp, I ran into a friend who was seated in a table service area. Normally I get table service myself, but I wasn't sure how long I would want to stay, so I opted not to on this night.
My friend asked the section's bouncer to come over and  get me and allow me in, which he happily did, with a smiling escort. However, no less than 3 minutes later, the same bouncer walked over to me and, without saying a word, forcefully grabbed my wrist. Being that he was about 3x the size of my 120lb, 5'9" frame, I was a bit taken aback. I don't care who you are, you don't just come over and grab me - forcefully at that - without an explanation! He looked at the stamp on my wrist, shined his oh-so-mean flashlight in my eyes, and shoved me toward the rope, telling me "You gotsta go!". Um...could he really have forgotten he just WELCOMED me in less than five minutes prior?
Confused, my friend pulled me back over to continue chatting. The bouncer once again saw this, and was perfectly fine with it...until another few minutes later, when he repeated the process! After the second shove, I was done. Didn't his mama - or his BOSS - teach him not to shove a woman?!
Unimpressed and royally pissed off, I left. Given the first impression they made, I won't return.
I know, shame on me - I should've said something right then and there. But all I could think of was getting out of there and heading back to my condo! In my haze of sober anger, I didn't even think to get his name. Too late now, I guess. However, this is no way to treat ANY patron, male or female.
Where do I begin. Â I was in line for about an hour to get into this club. Â I felt like I was waiting to get on a ride in Disney World. Especially what looked like teenie boppers dressing up in their mothers high heels. The "bouncers" or whatever you want to call them were opening the ropes to people they knew and were cutting in front of a mass of people. Â When we finally made it to the front there was a $40.00 cover. Â This is not what the website had said. Â WE gave in anyway and paid.
  We stayed maybe an hour a half only because we lost one of our friends from the darkness and smoke that filled the room.  The capacity was over so many times and you coulndt even move on the dance floor.  Music was not that great.  The same techno sound repeated over and over and.......  you get the point.  If you want to hang out with friends have some drinks a little dancing  DO NOT COME HERE.
Hmmm... Let's see... What did I like about mur.mur?
Was it extremely crowded dance floor that you have no chance to step on?
Or maybe... the lame DJ who doesn't play anything but hip-hop and every single person on the dance floor just stands there trying to bounce a little (maybe the DJ was playing boring music on purpose since there was no room to dance anyway)?
Or how about $9.5 for a bottle of Miller Lite?
Or maybe the absence of any decor or interior?
Or was it the overweight go-go girls?
Hmmm.... No, thank you! This was my first and last time at mur.mur. I should've just stayed home and played Dance Central instead. Good thing we had free admision since we went to Izakaya first and thank God for the fact that it's inside the Borgata and we had plenty of other fun stuff to do!
I'm so happy that MurMur located inside the Borgata. Many a time, after a few hours of gambling, I get bored. Or decide that I'm losing way too much money. Options... retire to hotel room early and mope about the night's fails... OR get sloshed at Mur.Mur. The later is clearly the better choice, because this club is loads of fun and really gets your mind off of the quiet bore of a casino floor that's just outside.
Drinks are surprisingly inexpensive, and the crowd is usually really drunk and having the time of their life on the dance floor.
Can't wait to go back.
If DJ Samantha Ronson knew how to crossfade/blend between songs and not cut the track right at the apex of the chorus, then this review would have 4 stars. Â And I'm pretty certain she's the resident DJ, so that kinda sucks. Â The music itself wasn't bad...it was the mixing choices that could have been wayyyy better for an AC club.
Despite being swag-ruined mid-booty grind by sudden, unprovoked changes in beat and melody, I still had an amazing time here, possibly because of the 4 hour pre-club mind bending in the hotel room.
The place was big enough to cater to the large Saturday night crowd but got overly packed between 1-2:30, which was expected. Â I don't mind rubbing elbows with strangers, but it was the men in their mid-thirties scanning the sea of women and stopping dead in their tracks that really irked me. Â If you're not gonna dance on the dance floor and instead serve as a human wall wearing sunglasses at night, then go the fuck home.
The surrounding carpeted area that circled the perimeter of the dance floor was nice if you needed a break from the heat or needed a drink. Â I didn't order any alcohol so I'm not sure of the price/value, but I ordered a water and the service was pretty quick between waiting to order and getting my drink.
The bathrooms were actually really nice, despite the mess the drunks had made. Â Very well lit and areas to sit down and rest your suffering feet.
Yeah, the line was long (about 45 minutes-it went all the way through the casino) and the cover was $20 but I didn't expect anything different for a club in AC.
I'd go back, so long as Lindsay Lohan's ex lover learned how to actually, um, play music.
Really nice place but long lines and lots of people. Â We got there early around 10:45pm because I don't like to wait in long lines but we still ended up waiting about 30mins. Â This place is soooo crowed. Â After pushing our way past the bar and on to the dance floor I was a sweaty mess. Â I really didn't even dance but I was sandwich in between so many people. Â Lots of creepy guys too. Â A new guy approached my friend and I as soon as we got away from another. Â Music was good though and the DJ was Samantha Ronson.
If I come back to Atlantic City I'll make sure to get a table so I can breath. Â (We spent a lot of time in the restroom)
The place to be on Monday night. Â AC was abandoned on Monday. Â After doing my research we ended up at Murmur (free admission with our meal from Izakaya). Â This is the place to be on a Monday night. It starts slow at 10pm with an empty dance floor until at least 11-1130. Â By 12:15 the headlining DJ's were on and the dancefloor was packed (EC Twins). Â The headliners were really into their performance and were good at getting the crowd going. Â They played mainly house music with a little top 40 mixed with house beats. Â Opening DJ was pretty boring but played a good mix of top 40 type stuff. Â
The club itself is small but it seemed that there never was too many people in there. Â The dance floor is small but fits the club space OK. Â Even when you are not on the dance floor you are never far away from it and can still groove a bit on the side. Â They have some funky lights on the ceiling that make the music that much more enjoyable. Â Drinks are pricey but not as expensive as we were expecting. Â My friend had jameson on the rocks and they actually gave him a full plastic cup of it (2x!)!
Also wanted to comment on the security for table service on the dance floor. Â The security was doing an awesome job for these tables. Â I would consider getting bottle service here the next time I am in AC because of how great the location and how great the security is for the bottle service on the dance floor. Â How much does it cost though?
I am very spoiled. I used to go to Vegas all the time (since I used to live in So. California) and so the clubs in Atlantic CIty are a little tough to measure up to. Â Cover charge was $20 which was very steep (since in Vegas girls get in for free, and get free drinks), but the Borgata was offering a free drink for signing up for their casino card (why not?).
My girlfriends and I went at around 11PM--there was no one on the tiny dance floor. I went in and looked around, and thought there was another room since it was so small! By the time we got our drinks, more people had come in and so it started to get more lively.
The music was different than what I'm used to--more rap/hip hop and less house. That's okay though--I like singing to my music :)
After reading the reviews I thought I needed to be very dressed up and wore a slinky black dress and black gladiator shoes--but I found that there were people in jeans! The dress code was more laid back than I thought.
Overall, the experience was a typical club experience with a steeper price than I'm used to. If you're in Atlantic City though, I hear that this is the club to check out. Since I haven't been to any of the other ones, I may not be the best judge in this department.
Boring.
It was $20 to get in, and there was a very strict dress code. So naturally, you would think what I thought. That it was going to be nice.
We arrived very early, soon after they opened. There is a small rectangle dance floor in the center of the room, surrounded by a thin counter type table to stand with your drinks and watch, and a section of floor around it that has bars on either side of the room. (on the outsides.)
I asked immediately about table service, but they told me they all had RSVPs. Fair enough, but I wanted to know what time to check in again. They said to come back at 11pm. We did, but they still said they couldn't seat us. We stayed until about 1:30am looking at four empty tables, thinking about how dumb they are, because they lost at least $600-$1000 by blowing us off. *shrug*
The music was ok if that's what you're into. As I mentioned, we were there early, and were pretty shocked and disappointed when the DJ started repeating songs. They had girls who were dancing above the crowd. Some were really good, and a lot of fun to watch, but we kept going back to watch the one girl who looked like she could care less about being there. Not very sexy.
Drinks were expensive, and the bartenders were not personable at all. At one point, one of the girls in our group dropped her shot glass and it shattered on the floor. I immediately ran over to the bar to tell someone behind it what happened, and the man said to me, "That isn't my job." uhhh, ok, then can you tell whose job it IS, since I don't know the inter workings of your staff? And, it might not be your job, but it will be your problem if a girl steps on it and slices her foot open. NJ loves lawsuits. Duh.
I hate to not have fun, and I hate even worse spending a lot of money when I'm not having fun, so we REALLY tried to make the best of it.
We got a lot of laughs off of all the Jersey Shore kids, and laughed even harder at how upscale mur.mur tries to be.
You might like it, but for me it's a meek 1 star, and I'll never be back.
I am used to clubbing in NYC, where women usually don't pay cover -- the highest I've paid for cover, ever, was like $10. Â So I was really shocked to see that at Mur.Mur the cover charge for women is $20. Â You know how much you can buy with $20?! Â
The bouncers at the front are really annoyingly thorough with the ID checks - they would ask you what year did you graduate from high school. Â They even asked my friend to sign something to verify that his signature was his. Â Geez. Â Are fake IDs a huge problem in Atlantic City? Â
The club itself is actually not that big - the dance floor is a few steps below the main bar/lounge area. Â The music was good, a mix of current hits along with some older (90s-2000s+) tunes. Â Except they had an annoying tendency to put on seizure-inducing lights for long periods of time. Â It got to the point where I was just closing my eyes and dancing because every time I looked around I felt like I was going to barf (the alcohol was not helping either).
There are girls in lingerie dancing on the platforms, if that's your thing.
There is also a small platform for ladies to go dance on. Â My friend was complaining that the ladies couldn't dance, so she dragged me up there when the platform started to clear out. Â I was surprised to see guys on the floor actually throwing money at us. Â A second side career if I ever saw one (kidding...)
Beware of the bathrooms! Â I was in line for the women's bathroom and I saw that water was seeping towards the exit - this is extremely gross because you are stepping in a puddle to get to the stalls. Â It turned out that someone flushed improperly and as a result, water was overflowing from the toilet. Â So disgusting.
In conclusion, a pretty decent nightclub. Â I just wish a) no cover b) if there is a cover, at least not $20?! c) the club were a little bigger because the main dance floor got SUPER SUPER crowded. Â There was almost no way to escape the creepy guys!
Mixx had an extremely long line, so my friends decided we would go to Mur.Mur since there was no line at all. After our IDs were checked, we were told that the cover for ladies would be $20 each! After that shock, we headed down the escalator and into the club. The deejay was great and the music was awesome and danceable, but the place was packed! You could barely move without knocking into someone and either getting their drink or sweat on you, which was pretty gross.
VIP looks like the way to go at Mur.Mur since the rest of it is so crowded, but I don't even want to know what the price for that would be.
Not worth the $25[1] cover; the $20 they charge women is a mite crazy, too.
mur.mur consists of a slightly-elevated area surrounding a central dance floor. There's seating on multiple tiers and two bars. It's not huge, so you probably won't lose track of your crew.
Attentive bartenders and bouncers keep the riffraff under control (each in their own way), but even good music doesn't make up for the fact that you paid too much to be there.
[1] Which you can pay with a credit card, at least.
I've only been to Mur.Mur once so I can only judge based upon one experience but.... BEST.NIGHT.OF.CLUBBING.EVER.
I don't even usually like clubbing but Mur.Mur was pretty amazing. I was there on a Saturday night and Samantha Ronson was DJing so the line was pretty epic. I was impressed with how the bouncers and the staff handled it though -- they kept the line moving and I was inside within 20 minutes. There's a $20 cover but that's pretty standard for most clubs. The one negative thing is that there was no coat check [edit: apparently yelp says that there is a coat check but I sure couldn't find it]. Almost everyone at the club was a guest of the Borgata Hotel so I guess that this didn't matter to them anyway.
The crowd was a pretty diverse mix and the ratio was about 50% male and 50% female. Also, everyone was extremely attractive but I'm sure that this statement is rooted in the fact that my judgment was impaired at the time.
The drinks were on the expensive side but once again, the prices are pretty standard for a club. The service was pretty great though -- I accidentally spilled 70% of my drink at the bar (whoops...) and the bartender mixed me a new one for free.
Lastly, the dance floor was a pretty decent size and it wasn't disgustingly packed.... also, did I mention that Sam Ronson was DJing? :)
Anyway, it was an all out good time so I would definitely recommend this place, especially if you're staying at the Borgata.
I went to Mur.Mur for the first time on a Monday over the summer. I had an absolute blast!
I was here with a group of 4 guys and 6 girls (including myself). We were staying upstairs, so we meandered down here around midnight-ish. There wasn't much of a line, as I recall. As we made our way down the escalator, I was transported into a grotto-like area. WOW.
There were a ton of people, so naturally it was packed. We didn't ever fight for a drink though. The dancefloor was nice and spacious, and the music was GREAT. House, house, and top40 hit mixed to BE House. Kudos to them! Also, not a guido crowd. Slightly classier types than other clubs I've been to in AC.
Plus, there's a Fatburger nearby for refueling before you gamble.
Looks like there's another reason not to hate Mondays besides Monday Night Football. I was here on Dr. King's b-day and I'm happy to say this place didn't disappoint.
The cover was free for hotel guests and $20 for everyone else, unfortunately I fell into the latter. After paying, you're led down an escalator that takes you to the club. There are 2 main bars and a sunken-in dance floor at the center of the club with booths for bottle service at each of its' corners. There's also an entire wall dedicated to bottle service complete with small coffee tables and a VIP spot opposite side of the dance floor. I like the layout as there are plenty of places to bring small groups of friends to order bottles and the dance floor has 3 points to enter and exit. As a note, the bathrooms were beautiful with ambient lighting that changed color every 10 seconds, they'll probably cause you to freak out if you've got any x-pills in ya!
The prices are what you should come to expect from AC with things like Vodka cocktails running ya $8-14 and bottle service around the neighborhood of $300 & up. Music was kinda weak for the first couple hours since it was pretty much an iTunes playlist, but things got wild once guest DJ Steve Aoki showed up and got the party jumpin.
It was a good crowd that night with plenty of girls showing off all their hard work they put in at the gym and gents dressed to impress. As with any popular club, it did get a little crowded as the night went on, but you were still able to get to where you wanted to go in reasonable time.
I can't tell you if this place is any good on the weekends, but when it comes to Mondays, this place should be a no brainer!
Mur.Mur was my first, and LAST clubbing experience in A.C.
Unlike other reviewers who came with a  large sized group of friends/bachelors/or bachelorettes, I came with a single wingman on a Friday night to test out the A.C. singles scene.
The club itself was pretty good (music, DJ, set-up, the usual $20 cover charge - you can actually pay with cards here), but the crowd and bouncers...not so much.
I wasn't prepared for or expecting "The Jersey Shore" crowd, but to my surprise the people here wouldn't have a problem fitting in with Paulie D., The Situation, or even Snookie. Despite the predominent Jersey Shore crowd, you had your few groups of white-washed Asians too.
The bouncers thought an authentic NJ driver's license was fake and threatened to call the police on my 23 year old friend. He may look young, but if you're an AC bouncer you should know what a real NJ driver's license looks like...no exceptions
Overall, if you're into the whole Jersey Shore thing, I'd recommend Mur.Mur, but if you're not, I'd go elsewhere.
$20 cover is a bit ridiculous....
We got there early (10:30) and the dance mix was only ok, a few bachelorette parties dancing on tables already....but toward 11:30 the place started filling up and the music improved.
Drinks weren't cheap, but the were very good...and the shots were generous.
I wish my friends would have stayed longer so I could have had a better experience...I'd go back, but I'd make sure to have a few cocktails in me first...
The cover charge is $20 for the ladies and $25 for the guys. SO. NOT. WORTH. IT. I believe it's cheaper on the weekdays but the weekends are a bit high. I feel like you pay to see the girls dance on the bars and that's it. There is nothing special about this place. I'm not a drinker so I usually don't drink when I go but i know it's a bit high. The music is good which added an extra star for me.
Great music + great friends= a great time for me.
Are you ready for a review of me bitching for an hour? I'm going to apologize ahead of time for any cursing or whatever else may offend other readers.
Mixx was closed for maintenance. Fine whatever. We went to check out Mur.Mur. The bouncer gave me AND another girl a hard time about our Cali IDs. WTF. Do you not know how to check diff state licenses or something? I look older? Maybe because that pic is from when I was 16, a-hole. Sign a piece of paper? Okay..... WTF do you mean my signature is different. I was effing 16 then. Your sig hasn't changed in 20 years? Were you a 16 year old girl when you started that count? Oh... wait. You're an overweight older man. And then you have the nerve to pull me to the effing side and blather on that you have a police officer around and if I use an effing fake ID, it's illegal? HELLO A-HOLE; it's my real ID. The picture still looks like me, just skinnier and more tan. What do you expect when I age 10 years and move to a state where I'm not outside all day long? Idiot.
$20 cover for women. $25 for men. WTF. It better be worth it. Really? $20 for freakin Mur.Mur.? (FYI - not worth it.) Idiots.
Stamps on the outside of my left hand. Who does that? It should be the inner wrist so that I don't freakin' wash it off and have to get it re-stamped when I go with my friend for her to smoke. All 4 of us had to re-stamp at least once. Duh. Idiot.
Inside, it was dead until about 11:45pm. (Just for the hell of it - Idiots.)
The music? It was mostly a mix of Top 40 and girl power songs once midnight hit. Until then, crappy unknown songs interspersed with some Top 40. Odd. The transitions? Terrible. Hello, Mr. DJ - get with the program. Not-fully-an-idiot.
Gogo dancers. Granted some were okay. One was just... how do you let her wear that? And did she even have to dance during her audition for the job? And why is that other dancer wearing Chucks up there? Idiots.
I'm not going to even get into what some people were wearing, but white suits (on guys), tiaras, past-the-knee church dresses, and jean jackets paired with jean skirts were just a handful of what I saw. Seriously? Idiots.
If this is AC's hot spot, I'm drinking in my room.
On our last night in Atlantic City (last Saturday) my friends and I decided to get dressed up and head to the Borgata to go to mur.mur. There was a small line to get into the club, which you would have passed because it isn't well marked at all. After a $20 we expected an awesome, big, fun club.... But we were not happily surprised.
After making a lap to the bar for some drinks, we perched on the side to watch the dance floor a bit. It was PACKED. There wasn't too much dancing, more just swaying because it was like a sardine can. The music was decent until we realized after a couple of songs that the DJ was just playing 30-second snips of each tune and then terribly-abruptly starting a new song. Unfortunately, it was one of the worst DJs I've ever heard. By the end of the night we had heard some songs played 3 times.
I wouldn't mind coming back here again, but if I do, I'd go all out with bottle service when a good DJ was playing. If not, there are plenty of other great clubs that aren't so packed with better DJs.
After going to Mur.Mur twice in the past year, I'm still not sure how I feel about it. Â
The whole experience ends up being a little cheesy and cliche, but somehow I tend to have fun. Â
Let me set the scene: Â you could walk right by Mur.Mur and not even realize it. Â The only space they have on the casino floor is a small cove where you walk in and show your ID, and then you take an escalator down one level into the actual club. Â Let your eyes adjust for a moment. Â The place is pitch-black, and someone is a little heavy-handed with the smoke machine. Â (Think middle-school dance with the boys on one side of the room and the girls on the other). Â There is a bar on either side of the room, and the perimeter is higher than the interior of the room where the dance floor is located. Â At each corner of the dance floor is a scantily-clad dancer in fishnets, and the bouncers also let some club-goers (ladies only, sorry fellas) up on the stages as well. Â
One of our friends made nice with our hotel concierge who hooked us up with VIP tickets, so we bypassed the line and didn't pay a cover. Â I'm not sure how much the cover is, but I do remember it being much higher for men than for the ladies. Â
I'd say Mur.Mur is must-see if you're looking for a quintessential Atlantic City experience. Â It gets started late, so sit yourself down at a blackjack table for a few hours and win some money before heading down to Mur.Mur.
I'm basing this review on a night when DJ Jazzy Jeff was spinning (far above average tunes) and we had bottle service (above average comfort and intoxication levels). Â I can pretty much guarantee if I was standing in the throng of gropers on a night with a tone def DJ this review would go differently......
We reserved a table for my beau's "quarter century" and were informed we needed to file in no later than 10:45 PM. Â We had told them there would be 7 people drinking plus 2 that weren't (insert plug for the importance of designated drivers) and were informed we had to buy 2 bottles. Â No problem. Â When we show up we are informed that no, we have to buy 3 effin bottles for 7 people to drink so that all 9 of us can be at the table. Â Fine, fun night out, we concede and hope this means there will be some order enforced in the VIP section.
All in all we had a great time, the place was  packed, the music was great and the furor level was reduced because it was only us spilling our drinks on each other, not random strangers.  As the night wore on there were a lot of "bottle whores" as I refer to them, the drunk girls who make a game out of sneaking up and trying to mack on every group of guys at a table to get free drinks.  It was a full time job towards the end to keep random people away from our set-up which was irritating.  Fun was had by all, even the sober ones.  That alone should say something.
If 'Night at the Roxbury' truly were a club, it would be Mur.Mur.
More updated than Mixx- as far as music goes anyways. It must be the curse of AC or Borgata or both, but the vibe I get here is still stuck in the '90s. Â For a moment, it's nice because I got nostalgic of the '90s. This club actually had patrons and energy to fill it. Â
If you are trying to decide between Mixx or here, Mur.Mur is the better bet. Â Mixx is bigger with the main area being the dance floor. Mur.mur, you go down a set of escalators and enter into an underground low-ceiling club. Both club have a lot of neon flashing lights (hence the Night at the Roxbury feel).
Crowd - young 20's college crowd.
Cover - Again, free for girls? but there probably is a $20 cover.
Since we had already been to MIXX, the other club in the Borgata, on another occasion, we decided to check out mur.mur this visit. Â MISTAKE!
For starters, the music was awful and undanceable. Â It was all 80s music and the DJ only played about 30 seconds of each song before he switched it up. Â I'm sorry, but hearing Madonna's "Borderline" flashes me back to bad junior high dances. Â Not what I want to think about when I'm out partying it up. Â And every guy in the place was wearing a uniform of an untucked, button down shirt and jeans, and too much gel in their hair. Â Seriously? Â
I will say that the line to get in moved fast, we only waited about 5 minutes. Â And there was never an issue with getting a drink from the bar. Â However, I will not be back. Â I'll stick to MIXX.
After the loads of hype I've heard about mur mur, the only thing I really have to say after my first experience there on Saturday night is: eh. Â The dj definitely worked it and the dancers were fun, but I wasn't super impressed by anything else going on. Â
I was with a large group of girls and we had free entry to the club and didn't have to wait in line, which was great. Â However, I don't know that I'd be hell-bent to return if I didn't have the same deal on a follow-up visit. Â It was a fun night out for sure, but some new alternatives in the near future wouldn't be a bad thing, either.
It's sexy, it's sleek, and scintillating. Â Few words are needed to describe Borgata's hottest new club, which has already overtaken Mixx as the top nightlife spot in all of Atlantic City. Â Borgata has always risen above the rest of the competition in food, rooms, casino, and concerts. Â Thus, their various selection of high quality nightlife, should come as no surprise to any visiting patron here.
What Mur Mur has done is combine the sensual ambiance of a lounge and combined it with the seduction of a club, turning it into a hell of a joint with great music, drinks, and lots of eye candy. Â With sophistication comes high prices and their drinks are as upscale as they come, complete with a drink menu full of infused vodkas, classic martinis, and classy cocktails. Â Getting a bottle here? Â Make sure there is a group involved or its going to get super pricey.
In a small way, the vibes here are like the good old days during New York's club revolution. Â Good crowds, lots of dancing, and minimal pretentiousness at the door. Â Often times enjoyment at clubs will vary big time, but one should make sure to touch base with a promoter prior to their arrival to ensure entry and space.
After the sweat is gone from the dance, the swagger of the swingers are numb, the place can turn into a real somber joint while the music slowly transitions from hip hop to chill trance. Â After all the hooplah is over, most conversations are reduced to a murmur, where the lack of sobriety is the cause, the smile of a good time remains
