South Beach Houston

South Beach was one of the first clubs I've been to in Houston and has been a place I've been returning to with my new friends here in town. If I were to choose a night of the weekend to go, Saturday is the best day because Fridays are pretty dead (unless you like a more empty club so you have room to dance around). There is a cover, which they do take credit card! The music they mostly play is circuit type. I kind of wish they played more Pop/HipHop/Top100 music that everyone can twerk to or drop it low. Like switch it up on the playlist! It doesn't have to be circuit type music all night. I'm sure everyone would appreciate it!Getting service at the bar can be a bit rough. Some of the bartenders are organized and go in order from right to left or vice versa. Others can be a bit slow, inattentive or disorganized. Obviously, I really do appreciate the bartenders that try to have a flow, so that everyone is served appropriately.

only place in town open till 3am. alcohol stops being served at 2am but music is ongoing and everyone's dancing which is a win

Came from out of town, online it comes up as 18+ but isn't. guy at the door Saturday night checking IDs was rude and looked like he'd rather be anywhere else. very disappointed.

Looking for a great gay club? This is it. The space is large, the bars are plenty, the music's bumpin, the people are fun and friendly. There's a lot of male eye candy for anyone who's interested, and periodic drag performers. We had a fun time dancing ourselves silly. But who's the only 37 year old girl that gets hit on by a 28 year old straight guy at a gay bar? This girl. Awkward!! Parking can be a PAIN around the area, but they do have $7 valet :P

South Beach epitomizes "gay dance club." You've got: multiple levels, a laser light show, black lights, free glow in the dark necklaces, hot oiled-up bods in tighty whities and sneakers dancing on blocks, cutie bartenders (some straight), insanely loud music with DJs from across the country ... and restroom signs that say, "one person per stall." Holla.I've never been to South Beach in Florida, but I can only assume this club is as wild as the town gets. The last time I came here with my (straight) friend Tony, it was because his cousin (also straight) was working the bar, and I'm not one to deny free drinks--they just taste better. It was Thursday's Noche Latina Uncut, and a DJ from Miami was brought into town (The music was so good, I later snagged a cd from him.) After a few shots of "Sex on the South Beach," we made way to the packed dance floor where there was every type of person: gays, straights, transvestites, the "confused," thugs, hipsters, body builders, ladies and more. When things got too hot, South Beach unleashes the Liquid Ice Jets which instantly drop the temp 20 degrees; you literally can't see the person in front--or behind--you when that happens, so watch out!I happened to find myself dancing with a French male flight attendant from Canada (not kidding) who claimed to be gay, but after a few sneaked in feelskies, I realized this wasn't true--that or he was just messing with me. Biting my bum was the last straw and I quickly turned to him, pointed my finger and scolded: "No! You are not gay!" and stormed off. Ahh, anything can happen at South Beach.Besides the way I've seen management treat their staff, my only complaint is that they almost always have a cover, ranging from $10-$20. For a gal who can certainly ring up a bar tab, I'm not a fan of covers. However, they're open super late night (think 5am), so they gotta make their extra dough somehow. For those who are wondering, the dress code allows "anything from underwear and up," so enjoy the sea of eye candy.

I have not been to the club scene for a long while until recently. I only came here because my out-of-town friend visiting. I couldn't believe that was my first time step into South Beach Club (SoBe) since I moved to Houston almost 2 decades ago. Every time I came to SoBe, I got turned away by the long line wrapped around the parking lot before midnight. That's when I normally get off work. But this time, we stopped by on Saturdays. We came super early, like 9:30 pm. Yeah. We got our free pass. Normally, it's $10 cover charge, which isn't bad because there is a huge dance floor with high tech lighting system and sounds system. It was totally worth every penny. Because we love to dance. We adore the music to our liking, more like in the 90's oldies. Yeah, we are older than most people on the dance floor. Thank goodness they didn't kick us out. I remember one night there was a huge group of young Asian guys came in around 10 pm. There were also many birthday celebrations around the seating area. Boy, I would love to sit on a cozy chair after dancing my ass off. Looks like they have some kind of VIP access. There were also girls and straight couples on the dance floor and around the lounge area. Oh, there is a cool patio on the side. Restroom was clean. Looks like there was some kind of upgrades at the club. Yeah. I would definitely return.

with living in Houston for over 7 years I highly recommend South Beach! Mary at the front always greets everyone with such grace & open arms as does everyone at South Beach! Best club in Houston & Mary

I was kicked out on my birthday because the door guy was a dick. I was not drunk or acting out of character. I will continue to report until he is gone. I paid to get in and told the staff he was an asshole as I was kicked out. I will leave reviews and do what I need to do until it is resolved. He ruined my b day

Fun! Classic gay club with the latest house mixes. Dance floor gets super crowded, but the vibes are usually pretty good. Very nice and modern esthetic. Valet parking staff are usually pretty quick. The bathrooms however smell like sea world....

The bouncer was rude to one of the guests in our party. We asked for a refund because they waited until we had paid all of our covers. The manager was nice and understanding.
