When nightclubs come and go in Dallas and you’ve been going to the same place for 15 years and never had a bad time yet... though we’re always at a table with bottle service. That helps. No one touching you.Love the new selfie camera in the hallway.Always bouncers to keep everything safe.

My first visit and surely will be my last! Camewith a group of friends from out of town. We get there, on a Wednesday night, only to be told we have to purchase a table to come in. We were warned by some other black professionals we knew that if we went in a group it would be an issue. So, we get the table and are told we are required to get the bottle service as well. Meanwhile, when we got in there were several groups of non-black individuals at tables with not bottle service. The service was okay at best and the price we paid DEFINITELY should have afforded more than one bottle of crown! I spent less at Waterproof and had food and 2 bottles of crown and 3 bottles of champagne. #issanoforme Too bad b/c it’s super cute!

Paid $28 bucks for 3 lemon drop shots. During the mixing the bartender (short blonde guy) poured 2 shots out of the tumbler to some girls sitting in the corner, I assume these are the cocktail girls. We were left with 3 foamy shots that tasted like juice. 0 stars if I could. We paid for the girls that work there to get the liquor? What a joke.

We hosted our annual charity event and it was a great success with the help of the coordinator and staff. The venue was upscale, the bartenders were friendly, and the staff was on point. I would definitely recommend hosting an event here or going out with friends for the night.

Great nightclub! I really enjoyed myself and I look forward to going back again. They have a cute photo booth station. You can take as many pictures as you like and send them to yourself via email. The music on Wednesday night was mostly hip hop with a trendy crowd. In fact, I left behind my Saint Laurent (YSL) bag and it was returned to me with everything inside of it. I had money, debit card, drivers license, and car keys. I feel at ease knowing they have an honest staff.

Cozy, intimate space. Best for bottle service. Music was ok, played a lot of variety which I think was the DJ trying to figure out what type of music the crowd responded to. Valet parking and bottle service specials a big plus. And very fun photo area which displays your pics on the club TVs

Its a bar club, in other words, theres a DJ and a row of couches that are vip on a platform behind the dance floor which is in front of the bar. def a good place to check out the bodyguards were always polite and let u occupy a couch if someone hadnt come to pay for vip yet. Great music and setup the bar is nice and its dark inside and for me that counts. Was one of me and my gf favorite places

The first time here, I like some of it. mango something, I forgot. But, to be honest, the DJ is not very good. Every time the song is good, he replaces it with another song. I mean, make a mix song that can make people want to dance on the dance floor.

Music was cool, crowd was enjoyable, but hospitality of venue is not very welcoming. You kind of have to fit into their niche or (again the management more so than the crowd) you will be made to feel unwelcome. I would return though, it is a fun venue. BUT

Review №15

Super gorgeous crowd, beautiful space...and no room to move. No joke. Our first clue was when we were jammed full into the elevator. It wasnt even 9PM yet... So I would recommend coming here in the early evening, maybe catch the sunset. OR come here very, very late...when most of the crowd has already thinned out. Great concept. Just needs to be bigger.

It is a great nightclub, specially if you are looking for a party on Wednesday nights!!! I wish they had more space, because it is really small for a nightclub, but music is great and place is being run by professionals.

Review №17

Small venue but a lot of fun. Older play mix from the DJ but got to the newer stuff late in the night. Most of the room is occupied by tables for bottle service so it would be worth getting a table to really enjoy the night.

Came here last weekend for a friend’s birthday. The group got a table and we had a great time. More importantly, I accidentally left my credit card. Suzanne the other staff took the time to return my call and find the card to get it back to me. That means a lot. Would definitely return.

Your typical good luck getting past the doorman establishment in Dallas. The place is designed for bottle service, the layout is tables surrounding a small dance floor area, good luck getting in without a table.

Review №21

0 stars for service. Me and a friend went to check it out on a Wednesday, doorman refused entry saying we were too late so either we can buy a table or leave. At the same time he allowed others without tables to enter right in front of us. Another friend happened to come along on our way to the car and offered to get us in, informing us that theres no need to buy for entry. He was allowed in and we were again rudely denied. Very lame to treat your guests that way. We werent going in to drink water. I used to go here often but wed rather drop money on drinks somewhere else. Disrespectful.

Women are forced to pay cover before midnight. That would not be so bad if the lounge was actually enjoyable. The crowd are in there upper 50s and the DJ is disappointing. I will never return.

Review №23

Took an uber 10 miles to get in. Was told at the door we didnt have enough females in our party. The bouncer then let 5 males who drove up in fancy cars in without female. Do not waste your time unless you are rich.

Overpriced for cover charge and drinks. Best thing about this is the bartender. They actually get tou drinks pretty quickly. Other than that too small of a venue.

Review №25

There was a big ass ride white dude at the door with no manners when me and my cousin who serve in the military and was looking for a nice place to go to, arrived he asked if we had reservations and when we told him no he refused to let us in despite our attempt to pay. I never saw anything online mentioning we need reservations but the guy at the front door needs to learn how to have manners when dealing with people. But I will be sure to advise all my military friends not to go to this rude ass place.

Went here yesterday and it was nice. The venue is small and it gives you such an exclusive feel. The space is clean and the bathrooms were amazingly clean and well kept (rare for night clubs). There was a mess up with my cousins table(they never booked it in their system, so we never got it), but we made the best of it on the dance floor. Very diverse crowd; but it was really nice. I definitely plan on coming back.

DO NOT WASTE TIME!! I have several complaints, and the OWNER needs to take action ASAP, or he/she will be losing alot of business. Its incredible that employees take advantage of their job positions. The person that was at the entrance was super rude when we came in. We laughed it off and continued with our night, all off of this is very sad because this was one of our favorite spots, and that night we paid for ENTRANCES+VIP TABLE + Bottle services for a party 10+ and WE ARE NEVER COMING BACK TO THIS establishment, and we will make sure all our friends never do.We were at our table minding our own business, having a good time and an intoxicated man bumped into us. He got aggressive, stating that he was in the cartel, and he could have us killed and kidnapped etc, long story short he paid one of the bouncers to kick us out of the club! Its very sad and I hope that after the reports we have a placed with the police the owner takes action and re-evaluates his employees.

Review №34

The decor is really nice. The restrooms are clean. The music is fair. The patrons are primarily people in their 30s and 40s wanting to cut loose, which is great. I only mention this because Im in my 20s and didnt know what to expect, and was slightly disappointed that the crowd was older. Not a bad place, but not for me.

This last Saturday night I was completely blown away by the hospitality and service at Candleroom. Let me back up to about 6 weeks ago. We were in the middle of planning our biggest charity fundraiser and suddenly needed a new place to have the event. Our director reached out to Candleroom and they immediately offered the place for our event. Not only did they offer the place for the event they threw in a couple items we were able to auction off at the event.Fast forward back to Saturday, things were a little hectic as we walked in to start setting up. Ashley, the coordinator at Candleroom was AWESOME! We were short a few volunteers and she jumped in and started helping. An hour into the event we ran out of plates (I know, I know) and we had rented them from an outside party but the bus boys jumped in and washed the plates we had so we could reuse them. The caterer had left and again with there only being limited volunteers who showed up the bus boy also helped out with keeping the food out and hot. Ashley was even running back and forth putting out desserts. I literally felt like they were all an extended part of our team that night.The bartenders made all of our guest feel really special, so much so they were making special drinks for our drinkers and non-drinkers alike. Making our non-drinkers feel just as special with a pretty drink in hand. The communication on the open bar and once we hit our limit was easy. They kept open communication the entire time and there were absolutely no surprises.Dont want to leave out that they even through valet parking in with the event space. It was so nice that our guests didnt have to worry about parking.If you are looking for an event space in Dallas, you have found it. The decor is chic and upscale and the staff is outstanding.And of course, Candleroom is still the place to go onWednesday night to be seen and dance your booty off. ;)

Everything you could ask for in an exclusive nightclub experience. A selective door policy ensures standards and clientele remain upscale, classy and chic. The music was phenomenal, the drinks were great and the crowd was absolutely gorgeous.You are always going to run into celebrities and VIP personalities, models, entrepreneurs, agents and investors here. The staff was exceptional, the club was immaculate, and it is honestly one of the finest nightclub experiences you will encounter.Prices for bottle service and drinks are what you should expect for a place like this, so no complaints there. Ladies, wear and look your very best if you expect to get in. Guys, dont be cheap and you better bring at least one or more sexy ladies and arrive early if you want to get past the rope here. Unless your a member, on the guest list or a regular.

This place looked like it was 95% guys on a Wednesday. Im a female and was with 5 male workers from out of town. Only reason we went to this place was because it was next to old monk which we were at but apparently you can only go if you have get a table. Hilarious that this place thinks they are a Vegas club in the back alley of Knox Henderson. Also it seemed to be mostly minorities at this club based on people leaving the place at 11:30pm and sitting by the front door (Im an Asian female).

Wednesday night was BOMB! very classy and upscale place. Not casual but a place to celebrate a night out. I was fine in a button up jeans and Sperrys. Although keep in mind they are rather exclusive in regards of who they allow in, couples should be fine but groups may need reservations. I went as a single male and was detained at the door even though my friends had bought VIP table service. Ask for Lyndsey if you can, shes a great cocktail waitress. Aside from the minor annoyance of not being let in it was overall a great place.

Sorry Not Sorry - A forgettable night to rememberThe recent experience (9/14/17) at Candleroom can be compared to a wick without its flame. I was invited to the club by one of my new friends to have a good time. I was unaware of Wednesdays being one of their prime nights during the weekday. My initial impression of the club was quite impressive, the people in the crowd seemed energetic and friendly. I sat next to an african american guy, Terrance, very friendly, whom had a birthday the day before and just wanted to chill with a few friends, real casual. I, as did others, bought him a drink. He really made the experience for me. Suddenly a Caucasian lady stumbles up to the bar, seemingly quite inebriated, looking for what appeared to have been just another drink. She turns to the guy, Terrance and says heeeyyyy... and he says the same back. The events that occurred afterwards is the reason why I elect to never return to this establishment. The Caucasian lady must have had a jealous, infuriated boyfriend that did not like for talking to another man. Long story short, the Caucasian male ultimately came up and punched t Terrance in the face! Terrance was not hostile or anything. He was completely caught off guard. The way the club handled that situation was grotesque. Instead of security removing the person that actually caused the scene, they removed Terrance instead. Now if they pulled the security footage, they would see that this man has been no threat to anyone. I followed the situation outside just to see that he was dismissed and no one from Candleroom staff, including the Indian manager, bouncer, or even the police later summoned wanted to hear him out. Luckily some of Terrance friends came out to bring him his phone, but his hat was still missing. Honestly I feel there was racism involved which is sad because we are in 2017 and still have to deal with this type of mentality. All in all, Candleroom needs to make that situation right. If him or any of his friends saw this post, theyll agree with me. Hope this helps others looking to attend this venue...

Sad day yesterday I got asked to leave and I heard them saying dont let him come back in. Im not sure wat happen I guess they had the wrong impression of me saying that I just stand around which I come by myself early and just be waitin on the place to get packed . They were saying I put myself on the rsvp list every week well I did that so it would ensure I could get in cuz wheneva I went late like around 12 I could never get in so I put myself on the list. They said I never buy drinks which I do Im not a big drinker but once the place gets packed Im definitely at the bar buying hurricane and Budweiser etc prices are 10 and 5 bucks for those 2 drinks.inknow because Ive bought them . I love the club tho its was perfect because Im off on Wednesday so that was my spot and Ashley was always a sweetheart she always put me on the list . I had a bouncer guy I always talked to who was cool I hate they had the wrong impression of me Im 40 Im not a thug are anything like that sad day. Im a classy guy so Ill get over it I was just kinda weird how it went down I was just tryna come support the club and have a great time .
