This is for their music choice and dancefloor, and vibe! I don’t drink much and I love each time I go there to dance. Please keep that up guys! I don’t want this bar to dissolve… but check yourselves before you wreck yourselves! Fire and rehire! I see that other people haven’t uad a good time with their service… that’s not good.

Horrible – stay way ! The Asian guy bartender was absolutely rude and arrogant. We asked for mojito he said no, I turned around to ask my wife what she wants as mojito wasn’t available (we don’t want to mix drinks!!) ? When I got back to him, he said ‘too long dawg, me and other servers won’t serve you’. Looking at the other reviews here it looks like this place is just absolutely trash and now It looks like lot of recent reviews have given been similar vibes. Big Shout out to the older bouncer white guy outside, he apologized on the bar’s behalf and said a lot of kind words, which really saved our night from being ruined. We and all our friends left and will never come here.

This bouncer (far right) at the front of Temple snapped on us when we showed him an Indian passport for proof of age. He kept on shouting at me saying why do people come here when there are so many clubs on the street.

A terrible place for having such an employee at its door.

Keep you attitude to yourself, I was there to pay for your salaries. I wish this place goes down, it will if the management carries the same attitude.

Do not go here if you want to have a fun night. The crowd is creepy and just left me uncomfortable, there were men just standing around and watching others make out or dance, it was so obvious as they even tried a few times to grab someone or just pushed people around. I was literally pushed by 10 different people even through there was enough space to pass.

The bouncers were useless too, they were not paying attention or cared how uncomfortable these guys were making others. I would never go to this bar or recommend it to anyone.

Just look at how unhappy the staff members is. Very negative energy in this place. If you are looking for a place with great energy and good vibes, look else where. The staff here are very impolite and unprofessional. Save your money, time and happiness and go to other lounges in the area. They have the lowest rating for a reason.

Shady, terrible place. One of the owners was on some coked up aggressive rage and picked a fight with someone in our group. The owner started physically assaulting a girl. When they fought back the bouncers and security roughly tossed them out. Our whole group of ~20 had to leave. None of the bouncers, security or even the cops cared at all that the owner started the fight for no reason. Terrible ownership, awful staff. Don’t waste your time or money here.

This place is run by thugs who get a kick out of committing battery against customers for no reason.

Went in with some friends as I was their designated driver for the night (which means I had ZERO drinks that night and was completely sober). I recognized some other friends who happened to be there. After hugging them, a 50ish year old man of medium stature with white long hair, who I later found out was named Rodney, confronts me stating I bumped into him and was in his space. My response was that no I was not, which prompted him to get closer to me. I asked what his problem was and the man immediately attempted to wrestle me to the ground. As the skirmish progressed, this man elbowed my girlfriend in the face as she was attempting to pull him off of me. Quickly all 4 bouncers ripped my shirt and threw me out while the man was confusingly being protected while barking orders at the bouncers. All while the bouncers were yelling misogynistic insults and slurs at my girlfriend. Turns out this man Rodney is some sort of manager and/or business partner and is allowed to do this to any customer he pleases.

In short, Temple’s management is allowed to commit unprompted battery on the clientele with zero repercussions. Not sure why anyone would want to appoint this thug Rodney as manager or go into business with him, but that’s not my problem.

Side note: Temple is also xenophobic so if you are an immigrant that hasn’t gotten your U.S. ID yet and only have your country’s passport (which is, in fact, a valid form of identification in California) don’t bother unless you are ready to accept the bouncer’s inevitable offer of a $20 bribe. I have been witness to this twice. Actually even if you have one don’t bother either. Place is not worth it.

Me and my black friend wasn’t allowed just because of racism by bouncers. They were telling us they only allow whites. We were dressed. This was totally inappropriate behavior. We showed every IDs we had. The incident happened at 10.35 PM, December 7th

DO NOT COME HERE! They are a SCAM!!! My friends and I went last night, and they charged us $72 for 4 (BAD) margaritas. Then, the next day, they charged her card $90 instead of the authorized amount. The DJ was also terrible. AVOID this place at all costs.

The music and the drinks were really good! I thought the employees were really friendly. But there were a lot of men who grabbed at me and my friends repeatedly until another man helped us and started stopping people from getting close enough to do that. I had almost all parts of my body grabbed at. One man even grabbed my face and forced my head towards him while I was leaving, which was very startling. All of the women I was there with also had at least one person try to touch them without any warning. I really don’t think I’ll ever go back because I’m scared of it happening again, but I wish I could.
