Beware! This is a major tourist trap run by a sleazy, fat s.o.b. Stay away from this place! Do not let anyone entice you to enter Cavalli Club! They will rip you off. Stay away. I made sure to report this *hit hole to the local tourist police.

Guys be aware from this club they have trained scammers all around the Taksim square and they will ask you for lighter and then will offer you to visit Cavali club when you entered to this club they will show you the menu which is very economical but after some time girls will start dancing around you then manager will ask you to buy drinks for them now the real story will start they will start opening the bottles and at the end you will pay for all those drinks but what happened with me manager brought me the bank machine to pay the bill but he shown me for amount around 2200 Turkish lira I was okay with that amount and I entered my card pin but when next day I checked my card statement they had deducted more 28000 Turkish lira I was shocked but now I have open a dispute against that club through my bank hopefully they will help me to get my money back. But please guys don't go to such places.

We were in search of good restaurant near sultanhnmet, a taxi driver didn't left us discussing for about 20 min and took us this club(which is just besides our hotel stay at taksim) stating we can find local drinks and food. Soon after we had our table, manager sent ladies to our table (even after refusing). Being language issues and a foreigner we really don't know what's happening. The ladies orders drinks for them selves without our consent, finally when the bill arrived the ladies bill was 11 times more than our bill - which is added in our bill. Being a foreigner we paid and left. I strongly don't recommend this place and the local police or concerned department should take measures for safety of foreign tourists. The taxi driver should the staff/works on commission of club as he was waiting all the time untill we are out of club.

Scam for tourists, we met a guy in restaurant which was really friendly, few days we visited some places, than he invited us to this club, we chilled for a while, they counted us 38 drinks for girls every one costed 30$ Total summ of our table was 1600$ Please, trust the reviews and dont visit the club, alcohol is also very high priced.

I copied the following text from a review below. The reason is, the exact thing happened to me an hour ago. A guy approached me and asked for lighter, then started talking in a friendly way and gave me a short guide too. Told me that he is from Ankara and visiting Istanbul. His hotel is nearby and that he is out tonight for a few drinks. Then he said he knows some good place where everybody goes for after party. I kept on walking with him only to arrive at the entrance of this cub. I saw there many bouncers and no customer at the entrance. That triggered my instinct and I politely declined his offer of “joining him for a drink”. He clearly got annoyed and started asking me why not! This time I was lucky! “Guys be aware from this club they have trained scammers all around the Taksim square and they will ask you for lighter and then will offer you to visit Cavali club”

Tourist scam do not go! They hire people from like taxi and bring you to here, with absurdly overpriced alcohol, they charged almost €1000 for like 5-6 shots i took

Worst club ever .. they are making people fool and cheating the foreigners. They are forcefully taking the money from foreigners and if foreigners arguing then they are threatening. The club manager and there is one lady bar tender must be arrested . Please please never ever visit , especially foreigners. I have travelled lot of countries and visited so many club but never had such type of experience in my life.
