Shrine Restaurant

Shrine is a fun club but BEWARE if you are ordering drinks. My friends and I all ordered similar drinks (nothing fancy) and we all got WAY overcharged AND charged different amounts. I ordered two drinks and was charged 33 dollars. Another friend ordered two drinks and was charged 44 dollars. Another ordered four drinks and was charged 80 dollars!!! Aren’t they supposed to have standard prices for drinks? Seems like theft to me if they are just charging whatever the please. Don’t get drinks here or at least ask first how much.

Awesome time at the Shrine. The drinks are expensive so bring plenty of money. The service was amazing. We had Sophia as our bartender and she had great customer service skills and was very attentive. My only gripe was that DJ Pauly D didnt show up till like 1130pm when our tickets said 9 to 1am. But he was worth the wait, I just drank too much waiting for him. Other than that it was amazing!

My first time was disappointed on 12/11. The DJ just wasn't cutting it. Techno that 1 song made you dance and the next 5 were just chill. If the entire crowd ain't dancing you need to change it. Don't follow a groupie. I could she wasn't into it either so it made since. Everyone has an off night I guess.

Before the pandemic I always had a nice time at this venue, crowded and small yes, but a classy affair. My first time coming back after the pandemic and they were letting people in with t-shirts, jeans and sneakers! Not just men but women too, I was surprised as I thought I remembered them having a fairly strict dress code and no jeans or sneakers being a policy but it doesn’t seem to be enforced. On a weeknight it’s one thing but on Saturday night to see men in t-shirts and jeans with sneakers? Next time I’ll just go to Mohegan Sun.

Wicked cool venue...loved the aesthetic and the DJ (Kaskade!) absolutely killed it. Super friendly and attentive staff. Only thing I'd change is adding more room on the dance floor - a huge portion of the area was roped off for VIP booths and it would have been nice to have more space for the crowd. Otherwise...awesome night, had a blast!!
