Reviews of Limelight (Night Club)

Pedro Roldan

Came in on a whim with some friends that saw some adds on fb. Music was great. Bartenders were super cool. All together had a great time.

Jane Dow

I was really excited to go to the limelight. My sisters loved the one in NY back on the day and I expected this one would be great too. It was nice inside I’ll say that. But the experience was a let down. The staff as others have mentioned are rude. The music is good but I’m not sure if I’ll go back for a second try.

Kelvin Smith

It was dead

Moody The bot

The most of the girls that work there have the worst attitude

Ty Mathis

I will not support this establishment ever again; I had the worst experience ever tonight. I basically lost $20 at the bar because I was "arguing with the bartender." She said I had to pay for a drink that 1.) was ordered by the gentleman before me, and 2.) I obviously did not order. I insisted on getting my money back, and she flatly said, “no.” I did not receive my drink nor did I receive my money back, so I essentially paid $20 for bad service. I feel, because I am a young, black man, she (the white bartender) felt threatened and called security over to assist. My request for my $20 to be returned shouldn’t have been an issue considering the fact that, again, I did not receive a drink. Security told me to talk with the GM/Owner. After talking to the GM/Owner to resolve the issue, he basically did nothing about the situation and told me I was out $20 dollars. I was then escorted out of the club and barred from re-entry. I asked him, simply, “what did I do wrong in the situation,” and he couldn't tell me. In the midst of this, the gentleman who ordered the drink before me was walking out. He stated to the GM/Manager that he paid for his drink, despite it being a blatant lie. I guess they needed the money more than I did.

the only thing I was impressed with was how nice the club was everything else they need to get it together. Staff was rude I shouldn't even have bought the one drink I did.

LIMELIGHT IS THE ONLY CLUB THAT DONT LET YOU WEAR WHAT YOU WONT ! I KNOW THAT THERE IS A WAY TOO DRESS , BUT THEYRE REALLY STRICK ABOUT CLOTHING ............. AND I GO TOO OTHER CLUBS AND THEY SAY NOTHING , I JUST WISH THINGS WASNT LIKE THAT .

Rachel O'Regan

Don’t go here if you wanna get kicked out for stupid situations. I got dragged out by a security guard because I was dancing and spilt WATER over the balcony. He called me derogatory names and put his hands on me and then had the audacity to tell the cops on me who went and laughed at him since he kicked me out for SPILT WATER. DONT GO HERE!

Alexandra Forneris

I am a 120lb female and was dragged down two flights of stairs by my neck for spilling water on a crowd control guy. I screamed that I would leave and begged him to let me walk but apparenly this guy has a power complex and wanted to throw me around like a rag doll. I’ve worked in bars where we were trained to appropriately remove individuals but this establishment is a place for employees to prey on their drunk customers. DO NOT GO HERE!

EllaM

had a blast, great crowd and dj

Eden Williams

Always have a food time here. The atmosphere is amazing and the staff rocks, paired with good music and drinks you can't go wrong here

Christina Kruger

This club used to be lit and the staff was cool and it would always be packed but ever since they switched management it just has completely gone under they don't host or advertise well and when u only have what feels like 50 ppl in a big club like that on a Saturday night it is not worth your time or money at all. On top of that the vibe from the management is just off setting I would not go here again however the club next door to right I see a lot of potential in!!!

Maria Lozano

Went out with my friends on a Thursday night and my experience was amazing. The staff was extremely nice, the venue was amazing, and the DJ kept my friends and I dancing all night. Will definitely be back in the near future!

Brent Yelton

Music is great, vibes are great, overall the whole experience is amazing! Definitely will come back for another great night!!

Christian Franco

Best college night and the best international Friday party in NC. Bartenders are great as well!

Damii Cardenas

Awful experience

Verónica Prieto

My night was amazing except for the fact that the guy at the bar was extremely rude. I had to place the order for my friends since they don’t speak English. I made three different orders and three payments. He literally yelled at me "all at once" twice in an unpleasant way. I understand he may be stressed but, wt* is wrong with you? I am a customer and I deserve respect. Place is nice but this type of service is just disappointing.

Fane Tsanos

Worst nightclub ever!! My friends and I went on a Saturday night and only the top floor was open. Drinks are overpriced and taste watered down. The DJ was old enough to be my grandpa and the music was awful, they even played “Party in the USA” by Miley Cyrus and there were girls making butterfly motions with their hands

The First Demon

Place is amazing me and my friend go almost every week

Justin B

Been here twice, the first time was great, even though the staff are a little rude. Second time we paid $20 to get in, when we walk in only the first floor is open for some reason. Tried to get a refund but the staff would not let us.

Gerald Crawford

Social Social Social...it was so dead the host couldn't even get the crowd hype after several attempts..NOT EVER GOING BACK!!

got charged twice for the same ticket, put in a request for a refund immediately after purchasing, but still haven't heard anything from the organizer. so basically paid $50 instead of $25 (which is expensive in the first place to get into a club) and the place wasn't even full (obviously if tickets are $25 and no one manages the money properly) I'm beyond mad right now. I wouldn't pre pay for this place. sketchy, they basically stole money from us and now haven't heard from anyone. besides that hookah was $35 and all they had was mint flavor the staff was rude as hell bathrooms disgusting (even for a club) just dont go here dude there's plenty of places around that dont need to charge $25 to get into a lackluster celebration. also if you're management reading this I'd like to talk to the event organizer on new years eve to get my money back for the duplicate ticket I already requested. thanks.

Not a friendly place ...from the beginning...at the entrance...I asked someone there why?.we get costumers with an actitud all the time.(I dout everyone is like that)..I answered time to improve your customer service ...you sell happynes we pay for it....

Gossett Miller

3 dance floors bars on each dance floor good way to enjoy a Friday or Saturday night

Timothy Martin

Me and my homies went to this club lastnight and we had a great time! The staff was very friendly and the security handles themselves very well when people are acting up, I will definitely becoming back.

Nikkia

I was there for a St. PATRICKS DAY event and was told my girlfriend couldn't enter with Jean shorts, but could with jeans or khaki shorts. And they were doing a collaboration with Great Balls of Fire next door where you could wear jeans shorts, which is a more upscale...."dueling piano bar". But yet and still both places are ran by the same person. Not really sure what the bouncer meant by "not those jeans shorts." And the group of people in front of us, one girl had on cut off shorts....Jean to be exact.

Jeniffer Spagnolo

Rooftop is pretty, however staff are extremely rude. Definitely not worth the expensive charges

Tmia Brown

Very fun

ashley Rodriguez

If I would I would give y’all a zero!! I am not a person that complains but I’ve had the worst experience at Limelight!!! I have family down here from Puerto Rico and I tell them we should go to limelight we will have a good time and they didn’t even want to accept their ID’s because the security guard said they are not U.S. ID’s!! First of all Puerto Rico is part of the United States how do you not accept ID’s that are part of the United States!!! The security guard obviously doesn’t know nothing!!! Worst experience ever!! If it has been an issue before You should invest in the ID scanners because we were able to get into another place and they scanned their ID’s!!! So I honesty don’t think your answer to this situation justify how your security guy treated my family and your excuse for not letting them in is not okay. Because how come we can get into another place that scans people’s ID’s but not into your club?

I went to college in Greensboro, graduated in 2015. Limelight used to be fun, back when they had the swing. I went out today with some friends from out of town and it was HORRIBLE. The alcohol is cheap, the drink specials were as bottom shelf as it gets. Which doesn't matter We paid full price for what we wanted and the bartender filled the whole cup with ice; i had to tell her to dump most of it. The DJ is awful and arrogant. Every song he played was white washed. It felt like listening to a kidz bop version of classics. Also he doesnt taken requests, we just ended up leaving. It was an awful experience, i should have just gone to bed instead of wasting my time and money. It's so sad that this place ended up like this.

Average dance club experience on a Friday night. Was told to be here at 9pm to get my debit card after leaving it at the bar. Currently at the door. No one answering the door or the phone. Anyone home? A while later... .... 12minutes later.... stillllllll nooooo annnsssswwwweeeerrrr.... I realize it's my bad for leaving the card, but if you make a commitment to meet someone in business, you keep that appointment. Just saying. And even later... In the end, very friendly bartender showed up about 1740. 40 minutes after the arranged time. I'd recommend not making unrealistic engagements, but will bump this to two stars for the good customer service.

Luzaan Van Der Merwe

Best night club you can find outside of Charlotte, I would highly recommend this club for party lovers.

Valeria Gonzalez-Toledo

The staff is pretty rude. Last Friday I got a drink for me and my friend, on the second floor, and it was the worst drink I’ve had. I paid $20 for 2 blue motorcycles and they didn’t taste like they had alcohol. It tasted like sprite. We let our bartender know and he tried to tell us that’s the point of a blue motorcycle. Really? This drink is suppose to have like 4 different alcohols in it. So we told the other bartender and she basically called us liars and said she couldn’t do anything about it. I usually have a good time but that day was awful.

Frank West

The ones you pay at the front are rude and paid $10to get in on sat night and wasn't popping music was mostly white and lots of college girls grinding and stuff Won't come again

Sophia Burleigh

Incredibly rude staff for a great venue unfortunately. The bathrooms were disgusting, the floors were soaking wet and did not lock properly at all.

Brittany Horne

DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE 30+ I REPEAT DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE 30+. DON'T GET ME WRONG THE SECURITY WAS GREAT DRINKS WERE GREAT A $5 ENTRY FEE BUT THE KIDS IN THERE LOOK LIKE I GOT INVITED TO SOMEONE'S SWEET 16. IT WAS CAKE POPPING EVERYWHERE AND THE MEN UUUGGGGH.

Catherine Perez

Although the drinks are a little overpriced I would definitely say that this is an awesome place to have a good time!

Insane Mastermind

The Staff rude as hell. The floor is nasty with drinks all over the floor. The bartenders won't help unless you a cute woman. I waited for my drink half an hour but when I sent my wife they took her drink right away. Never going back again

Neil Covers

LGBTQ night on Sundays are pitiful especially if you're over 30.

Rebecca Salvitti

This club is the BEST in the triad by far! They definitely have the customer base to prove it. If you are celebrating an event, they have VIP cabanas on the roof to accommodate you. They are the ONLY 21+ club on Saturday's!

Dantonio pass

Wow this is a extremely hot club outside in July ain't for me. Lord have mercy on me. Plus my homie had to walk back to the car aww mane. You can't wear solid black tee shirts here. Which is sad. Cheap beer and fly ladies and hot men.

Carrie Hartnell

Definitely the nicest bar or club I've been to in the Greensboro/Winston Salem area. Everyone who works there is super friendly and the drinks are actually very fairly priced which has always surprised me for how nice it is. The music is always really good too. It's our favorite place to go for a night out dancing.

Yoni Bacon

Worst experience. Went on a Saturday thinking all floors would be open, only top was open. Went in and walked right out. Asked for money back but said they couldn’t open register. Rude customer service by the way. Won’t be coming back. Spent 25$ with my date, worst money spent.

Avery Blink

Good place to have a good time. Event staff and owners handle themselves very professionally.

Justin Herald

The rooftop lounge area is pretty cool, you can see the city, have a drink, and a smoke while jammin to some music. Music has very different types of songs rap, pop etc.

Josh Ryales

It was absolutely terrible. The music is trash, the people are extremely strange, and it was definitely not worth $20 at all.

Dominique McLauchlin

Crowd is too young, all on top of each other. Nothing wrong with the place, its just not my atmosphere.

Angie Boo

Went on a Friday and it was lit! Lots of great people, and great music. Loved all 3 floors! I also went the following Saturday and it was okay. Only the top floor was open and the music was okay. Definitely had 10X more fun on the Friday.

Genderson Hernandez

Not the best service at the entrance, I bought my ticket ahead of time, and it was me and a buddy, he bought the tickets and send me the QR code, but my friend enter before me and once I got to the entrance I showed them my QR code and told me that wasn’t enough, I needed proof of the name and purchase, tried calling my friend inside but he couldn’t hear his phone, waiting maybe less than 5 minutes and I was getting kick out for not having the ticket, but that’s not the experience I want to talk about, the workers were rude, especially the lady who told me if you don’t have the ticket than get out of the line and go somewhere else, the guy next to her told me to get out if I don’t have money to buy a ticket, that pissed me off and I took out my wallet and told him “don’t treat me as if I’m poor” and paid for another ticket, seriously worst workers they have, for the owner, please train your employees better or hire new ones, it makes your business look like it’s run by ghetto people.

Sohail Ratta

I was wearing joggers and the bouncer was super rude and told me that it was against the dress code! Horrible service!

Aenon E Mouse

It's an exciting place to go to

kaela bishop

this is the best night bar in downtown Greensboro. the staff is friendly and accommodating. we had so much fun!

tanckii2001

Sweat box need more space and more mature people would not visit again only thing ok with this place was the DJ downstairs that night Reply to owner there was definitely not 600 people in the club that night

Dolo3542

Go there from time to time, but for some reason when i get to the door last night I pass the bouncer my id, he looks me head to yoe and says do you have a college id. Any other Thursday they never ask. I tell him no and he says you gotta find somewhere else to go. Males have to have a college id to get in which is clearly a lie because my partner went in 5 minutes before me and he's not in college.

Brad

The music is horrible. I go to the club to get turned up not turned down

Gunnar Bron

very clean

brendon hail

Apparently girls can wear nothing, but a guy can't wear a tank top. It's the 21st century, there is no need to be sexist.

Mike Parker

Not worth the cover charge at all. If this is all the area has to offer for dance clubs then it's a pity. While it is definitely not my seen, I was part of a group and figured I'd make the best of it, but the service just ruined it. If you can make it up to the bar to order, the drink selection is tiny and WAY overpriced, then they'll get your order wrong. Not sure how they have trouble with a Jack and Coke, but I got a 7 and 7 handed to me which I handed back and was then given a Jack on the rocks...which I was willing to accept until I was charged for a double. $14 for a double Jack? Seriously? What high end club do you think you are? I wouldn't pay this for a drink at the Whisky a Go-Go in Hollywood, so I sure as heck won't pay it for the wrong drink at a podunk club in a college town.
