I expect most bars in downtown Tulsa to have professional standards and operate their businesses in that manner.
My experience at Whiskey 918 was one of the worst times of my life. I currently have an expired license, so I bring my passport with me (which I obtained when I was 16, thus I look a little bit different now that I’m 21) so that I have a valid identification when I go to a bar.
After presenting my passport, I was told that I look nothing like my picture, which I said “yeah it was taken when I was 17.” Not only did I verify all the information on my passport verbatim, I told them the exact airport stamp that would be on the following page.
After they still kept saying that I wasn’t the person on my passport, I presented my expired drivers license to backup my passport. Once again they said I wasn’t who I said I was. I presented a valid University ID that shows my birthdate and everything.
Several of my friends came out that they had let in to tell the bouncers that I looked like the person in my picture.
In conclusion, I found that they weren’t going to let me in because of my flamboyant personality that went against the bouncers “morals.”
Not a fan of a place that doesn’t treat...
Read moreI don't know why Whiskey 918 gets so many bad reviews. My friends took me there for my 30th birthday and we had a blast. I am not at all a bar/dance hall type of a person (literally had never been out to a bar or dancing before this) so I wasn't expecting to have such a great time, but now I can't wait to go back again! Tons of couples who really know how to dance, so just people watching was very entertaining. The staff was friendly and chill, bathrooms were clean, and drinks were delicious. The crowd was also great and wasn't even rude when we got in the way on the dance floor because I didn't know the line dances yet. Friendly patrons, I even had one girl come and sit with me while my friends were out smoking until they came back because she was worried about me being alone. All around great place for a great time! Don't know if we just got lucky and it was an exceptionally good night or if they've just gotten their act together more recently, but based on my experience I would highly recommend this...
Read moreOverall if the country/top 40 Hip-Hop dance scene is what you’re looking for, this would be the place! Plenty of bars to choose from, prices seemed reasonable for the drinks. Dance floor does get packed once the people get enough alcohol in them. Staff were courteous and very professional. Security staff wander and patrol frequently throughout the club. They even assist in cleaning up the small tabletop area surrounding the dance floor with small trash cans to help prevent spills. They don’t allow drinks or food to make it into the dance floor, and if it does happen, they quickly intercept and get the person off the floor before an accident can occur. Unfortunately this was my first time there, and I don’t do the greatest with packed crowds. Women galore! All there to have a great time and kick their heels up a little. Great DJ and he kept the dance floor moving with...
