As a nightclub this place is not ideal. I can’t speak to it’s merits as a restaurant. But as a nightclub it wasn’t good. They tried their best but fell short. Music was not good, the service was OK, for some reason their ATM reader thinks you’re making fraudulent purchases which just delays purchases, even though I didn't have the same issue at other places across the street. I spent a good amount of money at this venue in one night and it was easily one of the worst nights I’ve had in a while. I liked the people who worked there and they really tried to accommodate my group, and were always respectful and understanding, but for whatever reason whether it was management or just this night in particular I had a disappointing time.
High cover, watery drinks, and practically empty. The place is crawling with bouncers and people avoided the dance floor like the plague. Save your money and go somewhere fun.
Whether you’re in your twenties, thirties, forties, or fifties, if you’re into the EDM scene this is the where it’s at in Connecticut.
While I get that this place is trying to fill a gap in New Haven nightlife (by building up the club scene), I was sorely disappointed with my experience here. I've seen far better clubs in much more modest cities, and frankly I expected a more polished club from a city like New Haven. Vanity lacks the modernity and class of a good club, and still reeks of the old Playwright/Russian Lady vibe (except now with creepy sexist undertones). In addition, the bartender we dealt with could not even produce a Manhattan (we all tried the drink produced and agreed it was straight vermouth on the rocks). And the cover was exorbitant, especially given that we were the only people on the dance floor while there. You'd be better off going to one of New Haven's many classy bars/restaurants, as this place will not settle your appetite for a club and it will make you wish you'd spent your $$ elsewhere.
I attended last night to watch Deorro perform and it was an absolutely incredible night. First off, it was a pleasure finally meeting John. He is extremely nice and made my friends and I feel so welcomed. He’s quite the professional.
Lastly, this venue is unlike anything Connecticut has ever had. I couldn’t be happier that we finally an elite nightclub to attend, that also brings in major artists.
Secondly, Vanity came out perfect; what a beautiful venue. Everything from the bars, seats, lounge area, and bathrooms looks as though a lot of hard work, time, and dedication were put into each to make everything look as beautiful as it does.
First of all New Haven needed a place like this! Place is gorgeous and staff is very professional. As a former night club manager I have to make a few suggestions though: Sound system is OK but no acoustics. You can hear the music clear unless you are on the dance floor. Also I don't know if you guys making any money from the pool tables but I would consider getting rid of the pool tables and expend the main floor. It also gets really hot in there, perhaps better AC :-) over all a great experience. If you like house music check out their website for the line up, this place is bringing the scene back to New Haven!
I had so much fun last night. The nightclub area is the perfect size. The staff I encountered - bouncers and bartenders were all very friendly. The music was great, everything sounded nice, and the visuals and lights were pretty cool. To top it off, the crowd was excellent - no one ever made me feel uncomfortable, there were no fights or altercations, and I had a blast dancing. My feet are so sore today but I would repeat last night again in a heartbeat. Undoubtedly my new favorite place in Connecticut. I can’t wait to see what other artists Vanity will bring into Connecticut and look forward to attending more of their events as well as having dinner there some time.
