I have been to Sangria about three times. Every time the experience has been less than desirable. The security staff holds the line for no apparent reason and will make the line wait about 45 minutes to an hour to get in. People cut the line and pay off the bouncer all the time, but usually these are the drunk group of five girls who think they don't have to wait in any line. The security staff is very rude. It's a shame because the bartenders are very nice and apologetic for the horrible host staff. Drinks also come in plastic dixie cups which is unacceptable for a place that charges a cover. They do this so they don't have to pay more barbacks to clean up hard plastic cups. Cheap plastic cups mean spilled drinks while dancing or moving through the crowd. The crowd is also quite disappointing. It's the Hermosa Crowd that thinks they are in an elite and hard to get into club, and they act that way- which quickly becomes tiring. The security will also decide to not let you pass from room to room because of capacity. This means that if you credit card/girlfriend/friends are in the inside room, and the security decides to hold the door to the outside room, your going to be stuck until they let you into the other room. I had to ask for the manager to get into the inside room to close my tab and leave. Why wait in line, pay a cover, be treated rudely...only to get an overpriced drink in a flimsy plastic cup to hang out with lame people and possibly not be allowed to get your credit card or see your friends when you want. Why?
Pros: Bartenders are nice
Cons: Long Line, Cover, Horrible Bar Amenities, Crowd
