Amsterdam

Amsterdam has slowly been changing over the past few years. I would not even classify it as a Gay Bar anymore. Sure if you go at the right time ie the slower times it is more Gay, but on a weekend night the dance floor is mostly Straight due to the music they play and they type crowd it attracts. I say skip it and go to Kobalt or some other bar that supports the community more.

bar staff? aloof but efficient. this feels like the last outpost for gays who think they're "it" but kind of aren't. TOO MANY GIRLS. and i'm not talking 'bout our lesbian sisters...i'm talking about drunk straight girls in overtaxed miniskirts smooshing their way throught the crowd and being super loud and obnoxious. gays stay in their "pods" at this place and it's hard to meet new folks here. the dance music needs some work

This bar has changed a lot over the years...And not for the better. They have the smallest martini glasses I have EVER seen. They must have had them custom made that small!! They are just blatently ripping everyone off. Pretentious atmosphere that is totally undeserved.

Decor-wise, this is my favorite place in the Phoenix area. It's very pretty inside and out. There's no cover charge earlier in the night (maybe it's before 11pm?). But you need to be there well before then to get parking. There's another night club nearby, and the same small parking lot is shared by both clubs. I've never met anybody there. I wouldn't say the people are unfriendly, but they're not outgoing either. The martinis are $8 and $9. I was there on a Saturday night at 11pm and there weren't many people there, strangely enough.

This place is full of people with maxed out credit cards who feel they are better than everyone else and full of attitude. To bad, because the bar is quite nice and has a lovely patio. I suppose if you like that type of crowd it would be a fun place.
