Eagle Wilton Manors — Restaurant in Wilton Manors

Had my mobile phone pickpocketed here. While I was very careful the staff and security gave zero interest in the theft and they didn’t even want to know about it. It just gave me the feeling that they’re all in on it.

After I told the security my phones been pickpocketed he said, “I know”.

In complete shock at his response I also asked the store attendant who was equally as uninterested in helping suggesting I come back later. No data collected from me or anything.

Until the venue stops this infestation of thieves I suggest you avoid like here like plague. The thieves are running a very professional operation here with many victims every weekend and night. They immediately put your phone in a faraday cage and drain your credit cards within minutes.

The venue doesn’t even know how bad the problem is (and likely don’t want to know) because they aren’t interested in noting your details down or anything when you report it.

The venue clearly can do more on these thefts and make serious changes in their venue to deter and remove the incentives for thieves. They say they inspect customers pockets and bags on exit, but they don’t. They have lockers, but care more about taking your cover charge money and deep inspection of bags on entry than exit.

The security demanded that I take my shirt off before I enter the back room area. Why isn’t he also requesting that all visitors check valuables at the same time? Heck, offer it for free or even include cloak in the enormous cover fees you charge.

It’s just not worth it either. Venue was too hot, below average, pushy, non-consensual crowd that doesn’t understand NO and TERRIBLE circuit music. On top of the syndicate of thieves in here I wouldn’t ruin your visit by stepping foot here until it’s fixed.

edit: since owner comment. My statement 100% stands. The lack of staff interest made me FEEL like they are all in on it, not that they are. Not interested in changing your staff behaviour or policies clearly. Staff also didn’t direct me to these pages on your website....

Usually have a great night but the security has become very aggressive.

I had a terrible experience with this businesses security. I witnessed the front door security push someone out the door frame because it started raining and they were seeking shelter. I scooted over so they could sort of be dry and security gave me a dirty look like I shouldn’t have helped them.

In the backroom I was verbally and almost physically assaulted by a security guard that barley spoke English. I had my shirt tucked into my pants waist band (as everyone else had) but he targeted me and screamed that it needs to go in my pocket. I was wearing shorts that had my wallet, keys, phone, chapstick, and cash so I didn’t have space to put an entire shirt. He got in my face screaming about my shirt and told me he will throw me out. I gladly told him I will leave and then he tried to intimidate me by following me around the club. I don’t know if because there aren’t cameras they feel they can get away with assaulting customers but it’s flat out wrong.

I assume management won’t care or see this but you should have a sit down with security and let them know they’re on track for a lawsuit. They are going to assault the wrong person and they will press charges. Because if security would have followed through with his threat of putting hands on me for not putting my shirt where he wanted it to be. I would have called the police for a report and had my lawyers file charges first thing...

The Eagle August 2023 In Wilton Manors, my favorite Sunday late night place-to-be is… The Eagle. Good meetups, great music, dancing AND cruising -- all together. Charley at the main bar is my favorite bartender, good looking and witty. The management at The Eagle seems to have done it right, actively searching for big name DJs to come in and play their best music. The late-night crowd at The Eagle gets great dance music -- we believe the rotating DJs and the in-house DJ supply the best music mix On The Drive. We like to sit at the main bar, back to the “Bear Cave” wall, watching all the characters go by. It is really easy to strike up a conversation here, and meet new people, as the Eagle tagline probability says it best: “be you” -- no pretentions, just be comfortable as yourself when meeting new people. No matter what your fetish is: jock strap, underwear, harness, dog collar, etc., you will find it On The Drive in Wilton Manors, and inside The Eagle. The different theme nights reflect the toys found in the on-site store, just pick your fetish of choice. Or not! We come to The Eagle several nights a week (Sunday with Charley, Monday with Frank), after work, to both relax and just have a fun time. Bring your friends, partners, or “date” here to talk, or play. The Eagle never disappoints...
