DO NOT GO HERE. This place is by far the most racist and disgusting place in Miami. You will be treated terribly, physically and verbally abused by staff and everything is extremely overprice. They will steal your money. Be very careful with the worker “Leon” who works in the front line as well. You will be robbed, mistreated, and abused if you go to La Victoria.

This place was HORRENDOUS. Found a bug in my drink right when I received it, immediately told bartender and they refused to change my drink. I have never seen customer service like this before. This place was the worst place ever and the bouncers make the experience even worse. They charge everyone a different fee depending on how they feel. Also saw multiple people get rejected because of how they looked. Such a horrible place! Wish I could give it 0 stars. WOULD NEVER GO BACK.

I've traveled and had no issues in Europe, South America and the Caribbean (to name a few) and this place is by far one of the most biased against black ppl. I'm speaking from experience. I've reluctantly been here a couple times & if the party I'm with don't have a table then it's a strong NO. If it's more than one blk person in the friend group, it's also a NO. But they'll immediately let in the non black party waiting in line behind us. I would not spend my money here, even though we have the means to. We took our business elsewhere. I hate to pull the race card but this place needs to be put on blast and reported to the appropriate authorities. It's not even worth it once you get inside as there are better alternatives. It's Crazy that they're still in business. Is zero stars an option?!

This place is racist! I came here with a group of friends and we had a table - my friend showed up who is black/African American - he was asked to leave due to capacity even tho they were still letting people in and he was at our table. He was the only black/African American in the entire place - and they made sure to ask him to leave after letting him. The host came up to our table after he had been there for 10 mins and asked him to leave due to capacity - she said she would call security if he didn't leave but could only give capacity as the reason Again they were still letting people in - do not support businesses who discriminate against people of color - this place is gross

Don’t bother buying in advance. We waited 3 hours with reservations and tickets. We came here for a friends birthday and it turned out to be the biggest nightmare. The night ended with her crying and friends being left behind. My entire party had tickets. I don’t understand the logic of having an option to buy in the advance when they will let random people in even if they don’t have tickets or look the part if the bouncer knows them. The staffs uniform and location in itself does not embody design district. It’s really a dumpy looking place. Nothing different from wynwood. Once you are inside it’s a mediocre club full of people in sandals, fake designer and cheap shein clothing. Save your money and time. I told the club manager i would leave them a one star review. She proceeded to laugh and say that my review wouldn’t do anything to her business instead of trying to figure out why I’m upset. I’m a customer. At the very least have some sympathy and apologize. Seriously don’t support businesses like this who exploit customers and scam you out of money and time by overselling more than their capacity.

This place is horrible- we were charged $30 and then our friends we’re not let in when they offered to buy a table. Did body shaming and made us feel bad for not wearing heels. Just generally the worst. This place has no people inside, totally empty.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. This place discriminated my friends and I. They kept telling us it was full while they were letting other people in on the other side. We tried very hard with this guy at the door named Leo/Leon whatever his name was. He was very rude to us. We honestly tried to get in but no chance. Do not waste your time to go to this place. Disappointed and disgusted how we have to go through this in 2022.

Ok, so here it goes, This is a delicate review since it involves “abusive behavior” from the bouncers of this club. I could have established a legal action but there were so many things to prove by the time that I decided to publicly make this post to prevent anyone from suffering what we suffered. This just happened 43 hours ago and I am already back home from my trip from Miami and I think this is the least I can do since I won't establish legal actions. While we were in the club, I was having a VERBAL discussion with my boyfriend and we decided to go outside and discuss our matters to not bother our group of friends and to clarify our miss-understandings. When finding the way out of the club, without knowing, we took the path to the kitchen, there was a girl who let us know we were on the wrong exit and immediately we tried to find the correct way while discussing. Suddenly, one of the bouncers appeared and asked me if there was something wrong or if my BF was bothering me, question that I did not respond to since I was too focused on what my BF was saying. Then I rolled my eyes because I was upset with my BF and suddenly the bouncer from nowhere “hit” him from the back to the ground, situation in which I IMMEDIATELY reacted with disagreement, shock and fear. I told him to stop because there was no such reason to attack him physically and I was very clear about that. Then 3 more bouncers approached the situation asking the first bouncer what was going on and I am not sure what he responded but none of them asked me the same question, which I wish they did. Then what happened was worse since they, without questioning, started to kick him on the floor and I was scared and begging them to stop. By this time, I am really mad but still thought I could fix and stop this situation since it was supposed to be a misunderstanding of my boyfriend bothering me. Of course that was not the case and one of the bouncers approached me and started to treat like a drunk women and he forcefully grabbed me by my arms (I even have photos of my bruises) and started to yell at me while taking us to a different room which appeared to be like a storage. On the way, my boyfriend was left behind with the 3 bouncers violently getting his phone and throwing it on the floor because he tried to get help. When I saw this I already knew this would not end well for us, so I'm begging them to let us leave and stop beating us up, but the bouncers kept misstreating my boyfriend physically and I was having difficulty witnessing this. So I tried to make the bouncer let go of me and he started to grab me with more force while he kept taking me without my consent to a room that I did not recognized so I panicked! In that moment I hit the bouncer who was physically forcing me as my last resource for him to let go of me but he instead started to call me “profanities”while he grabbed me by my hair with anger. When my boyfriend saw this, he took his phone and tried to call 911 and again they took our things and threw them on the floor away from us. They finally threw us out the back door where there were a few people that were petrified about us being thrown like that and they offered us help but by that time I just wanted to leave that place and make sure my BF didn't have a concussion. A friend of us who was leaving by that time told us that the police got there but we were already gone. This is the reason why I did not established further action, because we had no police report of that moment therefore I have no proof besides the photos I can’t not attach here because “policies”

DO NOT COME HERE. if you are a person of color you will really have a bad experience at the front door. Staff is run by animals who do not care about customer experience. I called ahead of time, I was told minimum, I agreed and they even took my cc. Upon arrival for NO REASON WHATSOEVER the Venezuelan girl said “we reserve the right of admission” and count NOT tell me to my face it was because I was dark skinned. How can anyone work at this place??? I hope the owner sees this because he is going to remember my name. I am going to spend the rest of my life telling people how bad this place is in MIAMI. The woman in front looked at me in awe when I told her I had a reservation. As if black People don’t have phone and excellent credit. Not even at club story which is a real club one gets treated like this. It’s actually embarrassing for the door staff (all Venezuelans) act like dictators. The irony.

Horrible staff, very rude, as other reviews mentioned. I can confirm this place is not worth your time or money. As of this evening, this place has 400+ reviews and 2 stars on Google Maps, which is quite an accomplishment for a modestly successful business in Miami. To the owner of La Victoria: Mr. Antonio Turbay, please be aware of the terrible experience consistently provided by your staff that do not care about your bottom line. These arrogant Venezuelan girls that work there mocked me and were aggressive after arbitrarily deciding to not let me in, while I was trying to meet my girlfriend and her group of girls that were inside. We ended up going elsewhere and spending alot of money in a better place. I’ve been living in Miami for 30 years and have seen it all, but have never seen treatment like this. It may work for a while but this business model is not sustainable for the long term.

The most racist, xenophobic, genderphobic, fatphobic place you’ll find in Miami. The staff at the front is so rude, mean, and disgusting. They will not give you a solid reason for not letting you in. They will simply look at you with disgust in their eyes, all high and mighty, when you don’t fit their perfect mold of people who they want to see inside the establishment. Please, give your valuable money to a more inclusive business, and let this place go bankrupt. This kind of energy/behavior shouldn’t be supported in the world.

I should read reviews before and avoid this disgusting place. We are a group of seven working in the medical field in Las Vegas and we never felt so offended before in any place. This place is the most racist and disgusting place in Miami. They are racist and we were physically and verbally denigrated and mistreated by Michi and the girls in the entry. Securities guys were very nice but they can’t do anything if the manager who was there is agreed with this abusive attitude. Please don’t go to La Victoria, we should fight again this kind of behavior, racist and disrespectful staff. We were good to risk our life in pandemic for people like these but we are not enough good to enjoy a time of relax in La Victoria even paying. I wonder who could be the owner who with so many bad reviews and complaints has nothing about it.

Please be aware of discriminatory door policies at La Victoria. On April 29, 2023, a door person at La Victoria refused entry for my friend of darker complexion from Nicaragua and me at opening hours unless we purchased a bottle despite being with a group of women who were already inside celebrating a birthday. The door person wouldn't tell us why he refused us entry despite us arriving well dressed, polite, sober, and willing to pay a $40 cover for men. We are left to conclude in absence of any reasonable explanation that this venue's entrance policies are likely classist, racist, or both as we couldn't help but notice many light skinned men arriving often in exclusive cars before and after us being provided better treatment and entry without buying a bottle while wearing more casual clothes, including graphic t-shirts. The person denying us entry refused to tell us why he did so after we asked multiple times. He said that he reserved the right to refuse us entry without justification because it is a private establishment. I strongly recommend staying away. We only wanted to join our friends to celebrate a friend's birthday and have a nice night out, but, instead were forced to relocate to another place because of unnecessary door policies which look to preserve a light skin elite Latin clientele. Being fair, the manager agreed to refund the cover charges for the members of our party already inside. We know that upscale nightclubs in Miami have strict entrance policies but were sadly surprised to be denied entry because of the way we looked, not dressed. This behavior is outdated and doesn't deserve a place in Miami.

DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. Trust all the terrible reviews. I am from Miami and have never been to a worse place. If you go here, there is a strong chance they will not let you or someone from your group in, FOR NO REASON. We had a table and they wouldn’t let one person form our group in, even though we were all dressed the same - jeans and shirts/v-necks. Additionally, the inside is LAME!! The music blows, it was empty.

This place is actually racist! I was part of a table and received a band. I stepped out for a second like everyone else does and I was denied reentry. I noticed others stepped out as well but they were granted access. What I realized, those that were let in were fair skin. I can’t believe I was discriminated against by my own people. I am half black and half Puerto Rican. Those at the door are definitely some sort of Spanish descent but are more fair in skin tone. I was completely sober and those lighter than me and drunk were granted access. It’s the last time I will actually attempt to attend this establishment. Stay away…… there are other places that will treat you with respect.

I had reserved a table for 13 people for my 30th birthday. I arrived with 10 beautiful ladies and 3 guys. When I checked in they body shamed my friend for being overweight and told me they reserved the right not to serve me and then escorted me out with their bouncer rudely, pushing us out with no further explanation. The whole group was properly dressed with heels, nice dressed, and make up. Our friend later confirmed with a friend who works at La Victoria that we were kicked out for 1 persons looks. These people deserve a law suit.

I had a bad experience at this place. We paid for our tickets at 12:15am, but they said they don't take reservations after 12am, even though this wasn’t stated anywhere when making the reservation. They gave us a refund with cash at the door and apologizing for how that’s not stated on their policy ( “we need to fix that”). Afterward, they told us it was full, and only people who were already inside could go in. But when we asked others in line, some without reservations got in. This wasn't fair. What's worse, it felt like they treated us differently because of our skin color. The entire line was filled with light colored people, and we felt discriminated against because we're not. Discrimination is wrong, and it made our experience even worse. In short, our visit was messed up because of unclear rules, unfair treatment, and what seemed like racism. I hope they listen to this and do better so others don't go through the same thing. We arrived at 12:30am and they close at 5am. September is the slowest month in Miami, extremely hard to believe that my gut feeling of racism is wrong.

Gosh I was gonna say the DJ should hype the music a bit, too repetitive and boring after a bit… and then seen all the reviews. Not sure if all the reviews are real. Great atmosphere, it’s outdoors so you don’t have to inhale disgusting cigarettes like other miami clubs. Bartender girl was way too nice. I’m sure the entrance is hard, as I’ve seen some bouncers making faces for some women’s shoes after she already already got in… We were told over capacity by the girl bouncer/host and when asked the guy he let us in to an empty place 😂😂😂 Ladies $32 entrance could or not worth for it. Depends who you are what you want. I got bored and sleepy and left. Cute guys and girls. The food looked good. There are don’t sit on my couch I heard really fun. I’ll try it next.

THE HOSTESS THINKS SHE IS THE OWNER OF THE CLUB! Before going to the club last Saturday I called to make a reservation, however there was only a table for 8 people, and we were in 3 ladies, then I asked if there was another way to join the club and the attendant said yes, general admission paying individual entry. I traveled from Orlando to Miami just to go to this club. I arrived in the roll exactly 11:15pm, the club opens 11h, there was only one couple in front of me in the general admission roll, they entered and my turn came and the weird hostess said that the entrance was only for those who had a reservation and that we could not enter , however ALL in the roll entered EXCEPT US! We were very well dressed and modesty aside we are beautiful and have money. A friend of ours arrived who had a reservation and invited us to join his table and even then the hostess didn't let us get in the club. I tried to talk to the manager and the security guys pretended not to hear us calling them. LA VICTORIA DON'T RESPECT PEOPLE!!!! DON`T GO! THE CLUB DENY ENTRY, THE HOSTESS CHOOSE WHO CAN JOY OR NOT!!!

Staff was incredibly rude. This is their “manager” who was ever more rude. Don’t even try to go to this place. They didn’t let us in and refused to give us an explanation. We asked multiple times to talk to a manager and said they were going to keep the right of admission and owed us no explanation. Don’t waste your time.

Went there without checking the reviews was my worst mistake. Racism comments are definitely valid in my perspective. They were watching us from the moment we stepped out of the car all the way until we got to the front. While in line, I could hear them talking about us (I guess they didn’t think I could understand them), but they were trying to find every reason not to let us in. Then when we got to the front they gave us the most b.s. excuse. I’m glad they did, because we went to Mango’s and had the best night ever. Needless to say, this place isn’t it. And I didn’t even need to go inside to see that.

The worst experience getting in. The people deciding who gets in or not were the most irrational, hard to talk with, unwelcoming, and straight up nasty humans I have ever dealt with in Miami (and Ive been here for 6 years). My friends couldnt get in cause apparently they had set aside a solo cup in the line while they were waiting and while Im an environment advocate, the girl at the door used that minimal thing to decide they couldn’t get in (no heads ups, no nothing) they obviously ended up picking it up and taking it with them but it didnt matter. She had made up her mind. It was simply imposible to even get a word out while she kept saying “do you want me to take you out of the club too?” And laughing in our faces at the fact we couldn’t do nothing about it (For real?!). Then the manager of the place came to me and asked what the problem was, it took two seconds for him to let my friends in. Because it just simply WASNT A BIG DEAL. We paid $200 in cover tickets, giving them business and behaving well, I just don’t understand how they feel so entitled to treat customers so poorly when they know we are there to give them our money. It personally took me an hour to shake off the unwelcoming customer service experience, making part of ny night so not enjoyable !!

If I could give zero stars, I would. I waited in line at 11 pm with no one inside the establishment yet. The bouncers we’re extremely rude and told me I was too young to be allowed in. They miscalculated my age and had to look at my ID three other times. Seemed very reluctant at to let me in despite having no one inside. I was finally let in just to be given an insane cover, despite no one being in the place. The rude reputation is extremely valid and I would spend your money, time and sanity elsewhere.

Do not go to this place! Extremely rude bouncers who are not welcoming and judgmental and mean. They do everything in their power to make you not want to go in. We showed up, looking nice dressed up and after inspecting our IDs for 5 mins, and then going to talk to manager they said they are only 25+ for the night. I told them that they let in my 23 year old friend and they said "oh yes sorry we are 23+ tonight" , and then I was like okay good we're 23 and they said "no youre 22" at this point we're like are you serious... look at our ID again so they had to let us in because they were caught in their lie. Worst thing is we were respectful dressed nice and willing to pay. Bouncer just extremely rude unwilling to even look you in the eyes

I will be as concise and precise as possible. Firstly and foremost, I fail to understand how a place like this remains open in a city like Miami, the cradle of the hospitality industry. Words cannot describe the miserable treatment my friends and I endured at the hands of the staff. This establishment excluded anyone who did not conform to their narrow standards of acceptability. Referring to themselves as a "social" club is a complete farce, as they took pleasure in isolating and demeaning customers instead of fostering inclusivity. I sincerely recommend you to seek a venue that values, respects, and embraces diversity.

I sit down after being rudely greeted and brought to my table. I order my food. I receive my food (rudely). Then before i Can even indulge in my food, a GINORMOUS Rat hops up onto my lap then onto the table and begins ferociously eating my food. I’m disgusted. I’m screaming. I’m Crying. I then turn around and look at the floor as i feel something crawling up my leg and there are hundreds of roaches running at me. They take me down and continue to jump me. The staff just sat back and watched as i was being mauled by an angry pack of roaches. Will never return to this place! Don’t even test your luck!

Came from Chicago to visit. We got to the door and stated they did not have our reservation in their system. Worst experience ever, we felt judged by our skin color. We tried to find a solution and the staff was not helpful at all. They were very rude and told us they were sold out but had people in line with no reservation getting in. Definitely do not recommend, and don’t come here unless you are white to their standards. 😊

La Victoria social club should be completely shut down! The racism experienced at this place is beyond, truthfully don’t know how a scandal has not entered the local news stations about this place. It’s 2023 have a dress code that’s valid, but discrimination based on the color of someone’s skin tone is outrageous! BUENAVISTA INVESTMENT HOLDING LLC will receive a complaint on BBB site. I really hope Antonio Turbay the owner does something about the culture in this place.

Read all the other reviews they’re spot on. Bouncers like to powertrip, service is pretty poor. There’s better places to spend your money

My friends and I arrived at 11:55pm for our 12:00am reservation and we were turned away and told our reservation was given away. Needless to say this business operates without class or integrity. Do not go there

This place is horrible, the staff in the door is very rude and racist, I went with a group of friends and the people that were in front of me on the line weren’t Allowed to enter, they asked why and the staff mentioned that someone that was watching the camera said the couldn’t go in, something happen and the next thing was the staff yelling to the people that because they were Venezuelans and have bad fame couldn’t go in…… I was really impress, after that horrible moment we went in, the drinks were weird, the music was like boring and -always repeating songs … wouldn’t recommend st all visiting this place.

If I could give this place negative stars, I would! If you don’t anyone in management, don’t bother going. Waited in line for two hours only for them to allow people who cut the line go in first. We made them aware of the issue and a tall skinny lady said “well if you don’t like it, then you can leave” horrible horrible service. At one point they made their own rules that only people aged 23+ could go in.

Gave us unwarranted attitude while we were in line, told us they were packed (it wasn’t) and asked us to pay $40 for girls and $50 for guys which couldn’t be used towards drinks (like other establishments do). There’s many other establishments where you can get more for the value. I recommend trying other places.

This is my absolute favorite place in Miamk. I always have the best night of my life every time I come here. Drinks are great, music is great, it’s impossible to have a bad time at La Victoria.

Beautiful, and safe establishment. Fantastic vibe at a LEGIT Miami Club. Place was crowded but orderly thanks to the many bouncers throughout the place. The bartenders were responsive and the drinks were not crazy overpriced. The DJ could have a bigger repertoire though. I suggested some tracks to him since he was starting to repeat songs but he was unfazed. If you want the real experience of a Miami club (outdoors, dancing till 5am) this is the place to check out! I had no issue gaining entrance, stood in line and got in when it was my turn. About the racist claims from people, I'm confused cause I'm latina and I had no problem getting in.

This is my absolute FAVORITE PLACE IN AMERICA. I always have the best night of my life every time I come here. Drinks are great, music is great, it’s impossible to have a bad time at La Victoria.

Worst experience. Came to visit made a reservation too literally two weeks ago. At the entrance they told us they didn't have a reservation under my name. The place was empty at 11:00 ! Wouldn't let us in either because it was "sold out." Worst treatment. There are better places with better service. No hate here haha just honesty first one star review but it deserves no stars to be honest.

Never go here. Hosts and bouncers in the entrance where incredibly disrespectful. Terrible customer service and attention. This is the worst experience i have ever had in a club in my life. I am a tourist and come to this city to have some fun, not to get a terrible experience.

Group of 4 girls 1 guy, late 20s and all dressed really nice. We went for a girl's birthday. Nope not good enough. Wild, never seen a place that would deny entry to a group like us.

We prepared to get a table, we were well dressed professional group. Workers at the door decided to no let us in. They let others get in though. I don't know how they make those decisions but it's a extremely bad experience. Traumatizing. Please go somewhere else.

This place is good for dance , drinks are good ! People are super nice . Like it like it ! :)

excellent place i recommend it, very nice and cool people

I wouldn’t even give them a 1. Just want to warn everyone that this club is racist and would not recommend this place to anyone. Me and my cousin had a table plus we had payed for our ticket. They said that they could not let us in since it was at “full capacity “ but we’re letting people that were behind us in, people that hadn’t even bought the entrance ticket. When I asked the manager for a reason? He said that it was personal and he did not have to share the answer, making me question if they did not let me in due to my appearance (even though I was in dress code, had the ticket, and was 23+) the manager spoke to us in such a disgusting and degrading manner that almost left me in tears. This review is to warn customers not to spend a penny here since they do not value you, and to the employees (especially the manager in the scarf) I encourage you to be kind and to actually Treat your customers fairly. -1000/10

If zero stars were available they would receive it 100% of the time. Very rude front door. Was not let in after instructed that no reservation required once open. They profile upon visual. DO NOT EVEN TRY TO BOTHER WITH THEM.

This is the utmost racist experience I’ve ever had in America. From the staff to the management here, you should be ashamed of yourselves. If you are a person of color and have any self-respect, I would encourage you not to support this place.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would! The bouncers are extremely rude and will let only half the group in without any reason. One of the bouncers gave me the middle finger, and the female brunette gave no explanation as to why she didn't let us in. Would not doubt that these people are racist at all. A third bouncer tries to gaslight you into why they won't let you in the place. This place has got to shut down.

I went there once, none of my cards worked, somehow (never had problem in any other club). Went a second time, I was able to go in, but they did not let my friends because of dress code (everybody else where wearing the same clothes). I heard other bad stories from other people. I dont know if the owner or people that manage can decide who can come in or not based on appearance or ethnicity, but it is what it looks like it. They have to decide if they want to be an open club, or they want to be exclusive. Stop stealing youth's money because its reckless...
