Amazing staff and venue! We had a private event at The Mayan and Sarah was very awesome to work with. She was responsive and made sure the night ran smoothly. The venue is really nice - unique prohibition-era theme that made the experience memorable. Also, drinks were great - especially the old fashioned. Highly recommended for private events or just a night out in CA.

My wife and I came down here from the Bay Area to see Raiding The Rock Vault. It was well worth the drive. Great show with great musicians. The hall itself had great acoustics.

We recently held a work event at The Mayan and my whole planning experience here has been wonderful. Sara is super responsive which is huge when planning anything literally against the clock. The owner was very friendly when we performed a site visit! Overall experience was great, the venue is just gorgeous and the event was a success! I kept getting complemented from the attendees as they really enjoyed it. Also I used their in house caterer and the food was a hit!!! Definitely will be back and highly recommend.

Fantastic place! Lots of open space and ambiance is city chic meets underground hideaway. Very friendly staff.

Wonderful venue perfectly suited to host events at. There is a lower level with rooms for performers to relax / change. Several different bar locations tucked away from the crowds make serving drinks quick and easy for customers to get.

The ambience was nice with dim lights. Very crowded and they played only hip hop music which became boring after a point. The outside patio form smokers was quite spacious.

This was like a visit back to my high school and college days... because I was a science nerd!My travel pal, Yuri, and I drove from Los Angeles to San Francisco on a Thursday just to attend this special event for adults. It used to be at the Palace of Fine Arts, but now it happens every Thursday evening (6pm - 10pm) at the Embarcaderos Pier 15. We purchased our $15 tickets online and walked right in. Parking was no problem because we used Lyft.

This is the best time in the City. Whenever friends are in town, we go to Bootie. Every friend says the same thing, Oh my god! None (Ive brought five different out-of-town guests who have been in every NYC, LA, and Vegas scene) have seen anything like Bootie.

This is our favorite happy hour spot. The beer is rotating and always interesting, and the staff is always friendly. Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name!

I love Bootie! I always have a blast here. The mashups are so good sometimes. Especially when they mix in 80s because I love 80s. Theres no dress code. You can get dressy if you want, or come in wearing jeans and a tee. This place attracts all types of people.

Always have a great time at Bootie. Kind of like a divey Club feel. The staff here is actually really nice without the usual gruff treatment you might get at similar places. Bouncer Queensized is the man! If youre in the mood to get wild on a Saturday and not too skittish, this is the place to go.

The place was okay. It has two dance floors and a laxed dress code. Hats are allowed and I saw people with sneakers inside. Drinks are kind of pricey and you can easily drop over $100.00 in a couple of hours. Be careful which bartender you go to cause they charge different prices. Good music and kinda racheted if your into that thpe of environment.

3 floors of excitement and the ratio of women out number the men so without a doubt U the person whose looking at this Review u should definitely be here having a hell of time without hesitation etc....

Nightmare for asthmatics. I did a medical treatment before hand to be safe, and yet there was so much smoking and vaping that I had to leave within an hour.I know they have the smoking set up outside, but its right by the door and the wind brings it inside.The band was good and the music great but since I couldnt breath and was ready to call an ambulance, It was a bad experience.To Mayan management: Please consider moving the smoke locations to maybe just 1 as far from the door as possible rather than 4 locations right out side the doors that are next to ALL the dance floors?Thank you

Impossible dress code.. Looks neat.. keep looking..

I really like this club !! My very first club to have gone to and it’s so much fun .The drinks are perfect and loved the music it’s just that at times we kinda stop going because the dj plays same music . Love it inside the dance floor and vibe is always great! Also, you’ll never have to worry about fights going on, pretty chillOh and the bathrooms plenty of room and comfy sofas to rest your tired feet If your looking for a good club, this is it so big and well it’s like u see in the movies lol.

Awesome place, I went to a party here, AWESOME

I cant say enough good things about the Mayan. The facade as well as the interior are mesmerizing. The people who work here are laid-back friendly and informative. There are multiple bars and bathrooms, and while VIP tickets have their benefits ie private bar, closer seats you wont find yourself cursing the Gods if you bought a general admission ticket.

The venue is really big for a midsize venue and has a lot of interesting places to sit and view the concert or event you are going to the Mayan to see. One of my many favorite venues to go to and see a show. Some updates could be done.

This place is definitely unbeatable.

Went here a while ago and thought it was really fun. A few years later went with my girlfriend and its gone down hill. Hopefully they can come back from it. Very fun and interesting place to go

Its the bomb ! Love it great music not to mention drinks and fast service

My favorite special event venue in L. A. The Mayan is decorated like a Mayan Temple and while that may sound a bit weird, it actually works in a dark dance club environment. The dance floor is quite large and they also have a large stage. This is a tri-level club and there are many rooms to discover. If the event you attend here is allowing people to walk around to the back end of the stage, check out the large room that is situated under the stage. Most of the bathrooms are located up in the front of the club but they do have some smaller bathrooms scattered about. The room under the stage has a bathroom off of it that most people dont know about so there is rarely a line for it. They also have a very large bar area near the front of the club as well. It is a very large bar and it usually has many bartenders working it so the lines here are pretty short. There is a smaller side bar at the left hand side of the stage but it usually has only one or two bartenders and you will wait longer to get to the bar here. It is a daunting task to make your way across that large dance floor when it is crowded but if you can navigate your way through, the front bars are a better choice. The Mayan is in an old converted theater and it has a very large balcony with plenty of lounging around space. The balcony is also situated high above the dance floor and is worth a visit just to look down at the dance floor during peak hours. If the fog machines have being used, the excess fog will be floating like clouds over the heads of the people on the dance floor but below the balcony. It looks like the club has its own weather inside the club and the people dancing look like they are way down below you (because they are). The balcony is really that high up and it is an impressive sight looking down. This is a fun venue and I always have a great time here.

We went to the concert, there was a slight delay, but in fact there were few places without delays. The sound quality is average. Bar with a good range and friendly bartenders! I recommend to visit.

Saw Lucha VaVoom here. Awesome show and very cool theater. Drinks were nothing to write home about. No bad seats.

Meh. what more can I say?Expensive and smells. Without good company, I would give this place star. There are better clubs almost everywhere else.

Came out to celebrate my ladys birthday and we had a blast the music and the vibe is on point.

Wooooo, I had such a fun night when I went last year. I will definitely go again if my soul is not too old for clubbing when Im back in CA.

$20 cover and cash only drinks make Bootie an expensive option. However there are four floors with different lounges and different vibes. If you need a break from a large crowd, you can easily slip into a secluded lounge. There are only two bathrooms and both are pretty nasty. Theres a weekly burlesque show - a must see.

Lucha VaVoom! The best time you can have in L.A.!

I was here for the special Halloween Lucha VaVoom. Very entertaining and perfect for this venue . Lots of bars and great views.

Beautiful theater! Never knew it was here, just happened to park near it.

Wish they have better DJ’s.

Very cool, trendy spot. Late 20s/30s crowd. Not over-crowded. Sweet lasers & visual effects. Would go again.

Great venue for latin concert entertainment

Great venue had a great time at this place.

Friday night is the best night here! Its hip hop & r&b and it will have you dancing all night. You dont have to come super dressed up but you should definitely come ready to party. Being that it is underground cellphone reception isnt the best, but this is by far one of my favorite chill spots in Los Angeles!

On March 2, 2019 we went to this place, The Mayan in Los Angeles California and everything was perfect but everything changed when we bought tequila. The American man who works there asked us for tip and I told him that we haven’t tried the tequila yet and youre already asking for money?? I did not like that!!! How can I tip if I haven’t tasted like the tequila?!

If you are looking for great music, great looking people and an awesome place to dance in the bay area -this is the place for you.

The best club experience I have had in all of Los Angeles! New years eve was BANGING, the champagne was delicious, they played every song I wanted to dance to (one dance floor was 90s hits the other house music). I ended up dragging my husband from one side to the other often. Did I mention it was a BLAST? Nobody was flexing or mugging each other, it was indeed a no judgement zone. Stay open forever The Mayan, if I ever need to get away from my adorable rugrats to shake a tail feather youre the first place Im going!=D

Really cool looking old theater

I love this night club, the music is always good,

Several different bar locations tucked away from the crowds make serving drinks quick and easy for customers to get.

The crowd is always amazing and friendly. However, the prices for drinks and water are way above average (500 ml Poland Spring bottle for $5 ahahaha), but it doesnt stop me to have ultimate fun every time I go there.

I cant tell you how much I love this venue. Its a art peice in itself with all the Mayan decor. Going to watch lucha vavoom there is like a life changing experience. I also saw Kinky play at the venue before the remodeled it and that was amazing as well. The venue is really big for a midsize venue and has a lot of interesting places to sit and view the concert or event you are going to the mayan to see. One of my many favorite venues to go to and see a show.

Amazing service !! They have a bar for people 21 and up. Everything is redecorated. Amazing !!!

Wow this place has been around for a minute! Had a good time overall but lawd I must be getting old. The crowd seemed so young. Drinks were good and music was decent.

This place used to be nice but now it went from classy to trashy.

Excellent table service and really fun atmosphere! My only gripe was that the music was a little so-so at times.

I love the Mayan. It captures the spirit of Mayan architecture especially with the ornate ceiling. Its vast size makes it a great venue for large dance parties. The music from the multilevel venue reverberates throughout the space with high intensity. There are two exterior staircases that go to open air spaces if you need to take a smoke break. There are many paid parking lots adjacent to the Mayan so you dont have to venture too far.

I had a great time last night at Exchange LA night club, DJ Baauer was there performing.

$20 cover and cash only drinks make The Mayan an expensive option. However there are four floors with different lounges and different vibes. If you need a break from a large crowd, you can easily slip into a secluded lounge. There are only two bathrooms and both are pretty nasty. Theres a weekly burlesque show - a must see.

I really like this nice place

Im changing my review after attending last night for a party to discover just how horrible the staff are there. Near the end of the night, I had run out of cash and hadnt brought in my credit card with me. I asked for a cup of tap water from a bartender, who kindly gave me one, no issues. I went back to the same bar by the back of the theater, and asked another bartender in a black shirt and white mesh trucker hat for a cup of water. He said five bucks for bottled and nothing else he can do, despite the same water dispenser being less than five inches from his hand. He proceeded to give me attitude, like the doosh that he was. The guy was either completely incompetent or just hating his life because hes in his thirties and still just a bartender in the back bar of the Mayan. Guess Id be pretty bitter too if I was a loser serving people having the time of their lives for scrap change.My friend also had a bad experience with a security guard, who stopped him while entering and aggressively threatened to kick him out if he got out of control like last time. He then accused him of being so messy, that ambulance had to take him out in a stretcher. My friend had never been kicked out of the Mayan nor been taken away in a stretcher. He threatened, again very aggressively, that hed kick him and his entire group of even one of them got messy. The staff is as low in quality as they come.

No place like it. What a fun and entertaining place! Food was amazing! Drinks were awesome!

Fun to just hangout and dance. The place is dirty and not top quality but if you love Latin music its a good spot.

This place is dope, the vibe the music everything is awesome. must visit guys. I had fun at white costume party arranged by Opulent Temple. Do check it and have fun.#letsguide #OnGoogleMaps #pub #weekendvibes

Always a good time partying here with friends. The bar service is fast and efficient and wait times are at a minimum. Good times and great memories at one of the hottest clubs in Los Angeles!

The Mayan at the DNA Lounge is a really fun night out. They have great themed events and mashups, therefore Im a fan!

The Mayan makes for a solid venue for both music and alternative pro wrestling alike. Very spacious and nice decor, with a spacious balcony for people to find a spot to chill if they need a breather from the floor. Need to take better advantage of concessions next time.

One of the coolest looking venues Ive ever been to.

I rate a 3.7. Its 3 floors. Went on a saturday. Its like $10 before 1030. For the basement hiphop floor its the Same dj and 90% the same rotation every Saturday for the past two yrs haha. website is informal and easy to navigate. The main floor is usually all kinds of spanish and some mostly edm a hint of techno and house maybe. The other floor is usually reggaeton bachata spanish rock banda merengue etc... crowd is mixed and 21+. Church clothes! Coat check available. Plenty of seats and stairs haha.Fyi: Club picks up the usual LA time, 11ish. My take on LA clubs: they are hit or miss, Takes a while for people to loosen up, Crowd is usually stiff, People start leaving and gets jaded around 2am. Haha. And the music is always okay. Never consistent with top hits back to back. Im from ny so my standards are different. Where are the top40popmusic party spots though.

2.25 dance floors, various music PLUS great selection. Check calendar for events.

Stunning architecture and a nice layout. Very diverse venue, serving triple duty as a concert and wrestling venue, as well as a dope night club that makes great use out of three floors. Hot spot if Latin music is your twist.

Had an awesome time here celebrating my birthday! Thank you for making it a memorable one!

Have been coming here for a while but starting to be a disappointment. when the DJ on the 2nd floor refuses your music request and rather play the same songs 4 titim . After 12am, people get bored and they go downstairs. Too much repetition.

Not what I expected at all. The music was good, spacious dance floors. The crowd was not bad. Overall a good experience.

This place is awesome and the music is really good!!!!

Really cool place. Been here a few times and it never disappoints! There are three levels the main floor is salsa and merengue, the upstairs is house, and the basement is hip hop not that lame hip hop you here on the radio but the old school you can dance to and some you know drake and other newer hip hop. It does get a little crowded but it is a night club, what do you expect!? The drinks arent priced too bad and theyre usually pretty strong. There is a mix in the crowd in age but theyre there for a good time. Definitely a cool place to have a good night out.

Had so much fun at this place. Came for my birthday. Definitely should be more popular and full. They should allow less creepy men in there...

Eh. They dump out your water when you enter. They sell water bottles, for $5. The acoustics sound really bad, drowning out mid range sounds. The decorations are gaudy and tacky, they look like they were leftover props from a crappy movie. The security let a mosh pit start up in the front, just seemed kinda dangerous. I dont think concerts make sense here.

We had two tables for my friends and my BIRTHDAY! Great latin music, staff, Venue. I loved it people are nice! Upscale casual environment.

I was having trouble how to rate this place. Im not much of a club goer. I dont like large crowds. I dont like people rubbing against me. I dont like driving far and paying too much for drinks and parking. I do like live music and being with friends. So for the music and good company, I averaged this place at 3 stars. The entertainment was really great! I always appreciate good live music, regardless of the style or language. My wife and I had just started taking salsa lessons so we decided to put some of our moves to the test. Luckily the dance floor gets pretty crowded so we blended in and nobody could tell how awkward we really were :) Drinks are WAY overpriced, but thats par for the course in LA. I mean $7 for a Bud Lite? But if youre going to a club in LA youre already expecting to drop a wad of cash anyway, so why not? There is a cover charge, but we didnt pay it because we were attending a birthday reservation and we got in free for coming early. Anyway, it was a fun night and I might go back again if invited, but I probably wont suggest it. Like I said before, clubs just arent my thing. If you like clubs then youll like the Mayan. If you dont like clubs youll probably still like it. If youre broke, just stay at home.

Came here last night to spend a friends bday. Entrance fee after 10pm was $12. Dont know if its less before 10pm. The drinks were not bad and then music was ok. The DJ that performed last night on the second floor really sucked. The DJs in the first floor were a bit better. Its a beautiful venue but the fjs didnt do it for me. Nonetheless I had a fun time. Cane dressed pretty formal, dress shirt, dress pants and dress shoes. I did see a few people with sneakers. I dont know if the dress code is enforced on Saturdays but on friday when I went, they were lenient.

This place is awesome

Im certainly not the person whom the Mayan caters to, Im more of a dive bar guy, the club atmosphere just doesnt do it for me. On a Saturday night, celebrating my girlfriends cousins birthday, we made our way to the Mayan. I can see what people like, plenty of people, drinks, and rooms blasting with your preferred flavor of latin music. We actually found one spot that was cool, up on what seemed like the third floor in the cheap seats of the theater was a small area to dance and kick back. I dont see myself asking to go back to the Mayan, but wont be so oppose to it either.

Great music. On Fridays only two rooms are open. Entrance was $12. One drink don Julio reposado on the rocks was $13. The room on the second floor they play cumbia, bachata sonidito and norteñas. The main floor is big on saturdays they have a live band I enjoyed the night. There is a young and older crowd all mixed but mostly old old so keep that in mind. We spotted like 2 cute guys in the whole crowd. Be careful on the stairs if you are drunk. Parking is available and costs $20 all night. Great hotdogs right outside. Belasco is next door and a hookah lounge is across the street. On Saturdays entrance was $20.

AWESOME environment, very cool decor. The staff seemed pretty good, but Im not sure how consistent that is from show to show. I would definitely see a show here again. Acoustics score is still TBD as 1 show isnt enough to make a determination.

Has great music for dancing. Gets crowded around 11pm and then its really difficult to dance since there is no room on the floor, so if you go early dance and enjoy the space because later is just too crowded. Overall I recommend it.

Nice place..I love it

Yay!!

This place is crawling with females 10 to 1, if your single great place good luck !!

I came here for a XX event. It was not bad, it has plenty of space and multiple floors. Also, the most interesting man in the world made an appearance.

The Mayan decor inside the club is brilliant (picture attached). Loads of space to walk around during gigs. A main bar on the ground floor and another small one worth checking out as you walk up to the Colosseum-type seating on the top floor too. Saw The Kills play there in 2012 from the heavens and sound was still awesome.

I Love it here ! three types of floors with different genres of music. (latin, reggetton, hip hop) ambiance is great!

Got to see Hanson last night and the Mayan was awesome the staff took care of the super long lines fast and politely the place does look super old but with the lights it was cool, bathrooms were super clean and bar staff was great! All in all an awesome place to see your fave performers

Quite a unique venue. Not familiar with their regular operations, but its a visually stunning theater and a great place to catch a show.

Loved the music and the environment and big place to meet new peopleThe drinks were expensive $9 pint of beer.Nice place tje best rooms for dancing all night long with my girlfriend

Very nice place multiple levels

Drinks expensive and to many old people

Went to watch a Korean indie band HYUKOH it was pretty awesome the place was big and had a charm.

Its a good place for a night out with close friends. Wouldnt take anybody here to impress them but its a good crowd and not overpriced.

Great latin base club

The music is good and big, that being said its really Hot inside you will get thirsty. If you want some water be ready to pay $4 for 16oz water. (no tap water is provided)

Nice club. Good sound system. Didnt like the crowd. Expensive drinks too.

Lucha Vavoom is a must see show here

Fun place to dance. So many people every time, and a great selection of music on all three floors
