This is my husband's cousin - he's one of the sweetest, most docile and gentle people I know. He was dancing merrily and then went to get some fresh air outside, where he was suddenly asked "where are you from?" by the security at the club, then he was not let in again and was violently grabbed and pushed, allegedly for being "too drunk" (which was complete nonsense, he was tipsy but not even drunk). They even ripped his shirt! They also grabbed one of our female friends - who was wearing a tube dress - by the breasts to push her out!!!! Absolutely disgusting establishment, especially as a woman I would avoid this place at all costs - this is not a safe space for you ladies! They treat women and minorities like dirt and see customers only as walking money bags, nothing else. I feel sorry for everyone who was scammed by these guys - they offer free shots for 5 star Google reviews (which explains why most good reviews have only ever reviewed this club and nothing else). Lot of bots among the reviewers as well. Ask yourselves why they have to buy reviews if the place is as good as they claim it to be.

This club was garbage. Stay far away. Men come to the table and fist pump like weirdos, they ask for tips constantly, the music is bad, there are no woman (that aren’t paid to be there), and there are men stripping. In the US this would be considered a gay club and the wait staff would be jobless. 0 stars 👏 Also, don’t believe the 5 star reviews. They are paid for in the form of free drinks. Club staff let me buy a bottle of expensive champagne for a table of girls that looked to be club patrons, but as it turned out the women actually worked there. After my expensive purchase I saw the women serving drinks. Bad management, I won’t be a repeat customer I assure you.

One of the best clubs in Taksim. Genger balanced place. The dance demonstration is cool. Quality.

The club charged 100 lira for entry. Once inside if you are a male you can not talk to any female you didn't come with or club staff will instantly intervene and separate you even while asking another customer if they spoke a certain language. You have to patiently wait for a female to approach you or else she may be on the payroll of the club. They tried to charge me 20 lira for sparklers they opened next to me which I did not order. Stay away unless you are desperate and don't mind the scams. Very corrupt.

It just sucks. And it's a scam, they ask you money after you leave seriously

At Taksim square no club is good for going I travels around the world I will not recommend to go in club at Istanbul ..otherwise its beautiful city

The club have a good location on Isteklal Street and has good music. We arrived 6 June 2022 around 11:30 pm while the club was not yet crowded. Around 01:00 am , when the club was a bit crowded, the waiter was not available to order a drink. a few minutes later , a security guard led us out of the club without any explanation.

The price of admission is 350 lira but that includes a drink. But a woman goes around offering "free" shots but comes back at the end of the night to charge you for what you took. Also a lot of these reviews are fabricated because she forces you to give a 5-star review. Security is very intimidating. Don't trust the reviews.

Its the worst place and will catch you for looting all your money....please dont enter...

A big scam. I wonder how it is legal at all.

Americans are not welcome here. Horrible experience. My buddy and me were not allowed inside. We were told we had to have women with us. So we ordered drinks and food next door while we sat outside watching countless guys with no women allowed to enter. They were hostile and clearly used this excuse to discriminate against Americans and prevent us for entering the club. This club was recommended to us by the nearby Ritz Carlton, I will be contacting the concierge to ensure it is no longer recommended.

They are very thieeeeef!!! Don’t go there at all… They told me because you are single you have to buy a bottle for 450 TL but when I wanted to come out they took 1500!!!!! TL from me… For just a 750 ml vodka bottle… They rob you people I recommend you not go there…😭😭😭

I was there before 9 day and they security team was horible , 0 costumer service , all good comments here are faked or they was forced by the place, there is old woman i saw that gave you pink drink for free and asking you write a comment , so if you see all the good comment probably they was payed by 1 liltle drink. Do not go there, soon we will open a face page againts this club and begin to pick all the people who hurt from this place and lead it intil the court.

they offer free drink if you rate them 5 stars so probably every 5 star rating is done be the waiter and she will offer you tuqila shots don’t drink it its not free its a ripoff , overall its average a bit small and not that good music

We went to this club and had the most worst experience! We got VIP and paid so much $$$ & they grabbed us RANDOMLY and pushed us out right after we paid. This is the most disgusting experience I had in my life. I personally think they are racist and threw us out cause we are brown. They actually ended up kicking out other people of our colour thinking they are with us too. I wish Google had let me put 0 stars. Took our money and disrespected. Security is the worst. Don’t ever go to this club! In the reply below , they said we caused problems but there was absolutely NO problems and we have video proof of how the staff treated us!! We were genuinely having a great time with my family and we barely talked to any of the staff , only when they would try to get us to spend more money. They ripped my cousins shirt and grabbed my friend who is a girl by her dress and pushed her. There are better clubs in Takism Square! It’s not worth your night

Would not recommend to come here. We got lured into this club. Staff is constantly trying to sell you drinks (as soon as you finish your drink they ask you to buy a new one). Most ridiculous thing: they don't allow you to move freely in the club, you have to stay at your designated table. Also the waiters trick you, my bill was 130 Lira and I paid 150 and he just disappeared without giving me any change. Prices for drinks here are way too high, almost the same as in Germany. There are many other legit places in Istanbul so please don't come here.

Don't trust the 5 stars they bribe the customers with shots. It was an OK experience but they try to scam us too many times. Telling you you must buy a bottle, having different prices for the drinks each day. Bring a person that knows Turkish you might have a better time

The tourist are your main customers and you treat them like dirt. Came here to spend $$$$$$$$$$ Walked away…he says buy bottle I say ok how much. He ignores me I walk away went somewhere else. Keep it up abiiiiiiiii soon your lira will be worth 0.

This nightclub isn't just for this nightclub. The most  of Istanbul nightclubs are thieves who will tell you that entry is free but you will end up paying over $100 dollar. If you want to have a good vacation, be careful and ignore people who approach you and invite you to a nightclub in Taksim!

Not expecting such an unpleasant experience, we were robbed by the prices of drinks. So be aware especially if you're a tourist👎👎👎

It was not a good experience,the waiter asked for tip in an agresive way,an other waiter sayd that if we dont take other drink we have to leave the club,an other waiter didnt bother to bring the change back,you have to be carefull when you pay,check the prices in menu and pay in advance,also they asked us to rewiew them 5 stars immediately

I was on foot walking just for exploring Istanbul it’s my first time been here I already saved this please from google but I saw it accidentally so I asked them can I have a look .. It ended up to have good drink with great Dj I loved the security super the Dj perfect the place so classy and it’s my first time to be in club solo but so safe and good I’m talking as a woman

Really good place with good music but they chest. At the end of the evening they would give you a receipt detailing the place would get 5 stars. It's sad that such a nice place chest tourists in the bill. And most of the 5 stars are in exchange for Caesars that they give to tourists and ask for a rating. Be careful!!! For my our bill wa 2000 lira And we are older 4 coctails of 200 = 800 5 gin glass of 150 = 750 Total bill 1550 The manager brought a bill for 2000 lira. And besides, the device requires credit according to the rest of the dollar of 17.00 and of course the current rest is 18.50. So even 2000 lira was supposed to be a charge of 106 dollars, they charged 114 dollars

They are pushy to come into their club, charge almost double the price of the drinks than their actual worth. Also, they put out ladies to go around with free shots and push you to give a 5 star review and they don’t leave your table until you do. So, this high rating is a SCAM!

Don’t go there

Robbers

Best club in Istiklal street Taksim square clubs arn't good in general but this one is the best amongst them

Worst experience ever, after everyone beg me for tips and i paid them all suddenly when I stopped giving them tips they kicked me and my wife out. The place is cosy and nice but the staff, the security and the manager they will make you uncomfortable if you dont tips them

Very nice place, great service and personal I would do like back the club again 🫶🏽

Real people, no scam, clear prices, nice and very helpful staff. A small place but definitely the best in Istanbul

Cozy place but good vibe to party

Such a scam ,tried to keep my change . I really didn’t like it .. found a great rock and roll bar nearby

The service is really bad they don't even know the prices of their drink (at mine was like that ) and because Ur not from there they treat you as money walking to them comparing to any other club around I think this one the worst (at least the music was good)

Never ever

it was so crowded and the space was small . the flash lights was not good but staff were kind and respectable

The entrance fee was 200tl and waiter always tries to rip the tourists off by extra ordinary prices like a bear for 200 turkish lira . Girls also insist you for drink. All in all if you are alone it costs you around 1000 turkish lira and after all you get nothing . Do not enter to this club if you got at least a little IQ

Such scammers you will only find in Istanbul Taksim, first they charge you hefty amount, then they wont give you menu and try to charge you hefty amounts for just redbull mix with vodka, the entry table is the worst just, just on such corner that you cant even see people, you are not allowed to go anywhere other then your table, PLEASE DO NOT GO TO THIS SCAMMERS CLUB, i will ask my friends to start a campaign against these scammers on their blog

Upon arrival we were urged to take a seat in the VIP area, even though we indicated several times that we only wanted just a drink and did not want to buy a bottle. Here we were handed the bottle card several times in a rather urgent manner. After indicating 3 times that we did not want to buy a bottle, we wanted to leave, but in the end we were allowed to buy a normal drink (at very expensive prices). We also noticed that there were people (especially women) everywhere in the club who simply worked for the club, but had to make it seem as if there were many female customers. They also asked us to give a 5 star review. Do whatever you want with this information, but be careful because all they want is to charge you expensive bottles of €200.

everythin was wonderfull but dj was very bad .music so bad..

It's complete garbage!

The best club I have ever been in Taksim/İstanbul. I have never seen a reliable entertaintment disco/club in İstanbul Taksim. Thank you very much. We are looking forward to be there at Christmas night altogether. Thank you very much again Club IQ. That was a wonderful night.

ask us to come for ladies night and have a free drink but they serve open beer and taste bad. so i ask the counter to give me a new beer that is not open and taste and its very refressing than free. cheaters

It is one on the best night clubs on Taksim! The staff are very friendly and handsome the owner Michael it’s the best person I met! It’s worth any lira! 😀

I don’t know if there was anything positive. The waiter ripped me off with the price of my drink and later I was ask to return to my table and not to walk around. I left the club after this immediately. Will never come back for sure.

Total Rip-off! Waitress was giving away a shot for 5 star review, so most 5 star reviews are fake.

This place is very bad , they will cheat you in the bill , and there is no respect from manager or bodyguard , after you drink they think ur drunk and try to add extra money they give you shot to be drunk then they will add items on menu ,Im from qatar and my friend from saudi arabia i advice all people to don’t go there

I like it very much.I was there with my best friend to celebrate my 40 birthday.We are here in Istanbul for the first time and we enjoy it very much.Taksim Club IQ is a safe place for women.We had a lot of fun, good DJ and the employers are very nice and friendly especially Ömur.Thank a lot. Kisses🇹🇷

Big scam, they lured me in and then wouldn't sell me any drinks. They insisted I buy a whole bottle, which is totally irresponsible. They're practically trying to make me sick from alcohol and cheat me! They informed me that night that they didn't have any tickets available for purchase. I even offered to pay for a ticket, but it didn't matter. I decided to leave and take my business elsewhere.

PLEASE STOP GOING THERE! They have their own ladies around to steal your money by them and if you are smart to consider their receipt, they are dozen people fighting with you and the police also supporting them, because you are not from there and instead of 20 people fought with you the police take only a few of them to police department. I’m a usa citizen and I will see them later.

Haram

This is please that must visit if u are in Istanbul! Is worth your time money and effort to come! Excellent location excellent stuff and excellent hospitality! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Quality! Hospitality! I feel like home ! I love the stuff and the owner! Must visit! ❤️

All nationality are one place! Wonderful service! I would give 5 from 5! Love it!

Very good club. The stuff is very nice - Alihan is better!

good place personeL and waiters are very good and Dj are the best

Dj is bomb. Service 👌🏼, drinks are reasonably priced for a club in Istanbul - if you plan on stayin for a while get a bottle.

The club is okay exept the waiters who give you services that you didnt ask for (attack you with services and you cannot say go away) , and then fight with you over giving them a tip , when you give something , they say its not enough and demand more even tho you dont owe them anything!

Very nice and don’t try to cheat you on the prices. Also the music is very well verse and consistent.

I like it sooo much I had sooo much fun, the music is so good and the servis also, I recommend the place u won’t regret it and u’ll come back again and again

The best place is istanbul!!! People are great! Crew were so kind. Music is great! DJ played good music. Affordable price. I will surely go back to this place

first time at a club in turkey and this was so much fun!! they served free shots as a little gift to get everyone in a dancing mood and and treated us so nicely and always kept the place clean. would love to bring my friends and family back here again ! <3

First - we come in and one of the waitresses takes my phone to give a 5 star rating. Never saw that in 10 years of partying worldwide but ok. The music of the club is fine. But in general it’s what the people say. Bottles are starting form 2250 tlr so fair. Music was ok. But the club was with a strange atmosphere. The security guard doesn’t want you walk arround. They were very rude attending people. Most of the girls are probably paid to be there. Haven’t seen that in a while..

A good place for couples. The securities were constantly there to maintain a good atmosphere. The prices are reasonable. Overall, it was a good experience

I will be fair , the place to dance is good atmosphere snd vibes are high But be alert ; I asked to smoke Nargile which is no problem for that even with high I do accept , but when I asked them to change the coal , they want be to pay more for just change , for me as I’m traveler person , I have never seen something in my life like this , the coal should be covered with total price which is was 1500 TL . I spoke to the manager and they fix my issue and I do appreciate that If someone ask me to visit the place again maybe but not bad at all and not wow too

Best club ever after Zeus Ankara

Alihan is the good manager. Club is good for people who want to come here late because it open until 5 o’clock. Good music

Alihan treat us very well. Bottles cheaper than average, RECOMMENDED!

The party was really nice, the atmosphere is really good! Alihan was really nice to us and took care. We had a really great moment!

Taksim Club IQ is the Shizznit!! Make sure you come here it’s worth it drinks are cheap and the girls are hot!!

Amazing place, fun vibes and good music 😍👍🏻

You must visit this place in Istanbul, the music is awesome , the service is more then perfect and really good vibes 😎

What a waste of space and time. Go there is you have your own crew and want to get drunk and dance with each other. The sound system and lighting and occasional dancers are decent. Everything else is scammy. The girls standing at the tables work for the club. Why would a girl stand by a table, drink a fake drink the whole night by herself and fence of any interested guys? A lot of the clubs do this and if the rest hadn't happened I'd be fine with it. I asked my waiter whether the girls were working and he said no. He also insisted they had no female employees and that even the gogo dancer was a customer. What load of cr$p. Funny in the response to my initial review the owner admits they have female employees including the gogo dancer and only denies the table girls working for the club. They won't let you mingle with other customers either. After I realized the single girls are not customers I tried talking to other groups at other the tables. They were tourists and started talking to me and the night could have been saved, but soon the bouncer directed me back to my table. On my way out I wrote a more direct message to one of the club girls I hadn't talk to but had made eye contact and she would low key flirt by dancing a little and smiling after the eye contact. Her response was simply "I am not allowed to talk to customers". At least she was honest. I'm a traveler that hates scammers. That's all.

Its an amazing place & prolly the best in istanbul, Eda is a great server & also her way of talking is very polite, Had a blast at this place, Thanks to Eda ⚡️⚡️🔥🔥🔥

So fun! Great music and energy. Love it here :) definitely come to this club if you are looking to dance and have a good time!

We were forced to buy drinks for everyone, while my friend is kot a drinker. The price a bit more expensive with tax. No space for dance, the music is turkish so not good for international people.

I love club IQ cause the staff are friendly and nice. I like the atmosphere and you can have a really good night here.

One of the worst experiences I ever had in my life, I visited many countries, I never faced such a bad experience, they give a free juice shot, and then ask you to rate them, this is after they treat you like a real shit…

There are not many negative reviews in the bar that suggest poor safety or forced promotion. We drink quietly at the table ourselves, and the security guards and waiters are very friendly. They even treated us to a drink. Thank you! It's just a pity that there is no performance and lively atmosphere, so I can only drink by myself. I thought the bars in Türkiye would be very lively and everyone would dance together, but that's not the case

Perfect place with great workers with very positive energy! Highly recommend this place to anyone! 🥳

You should try this club for freely dancing experience before leave from turkey! They are open minded and nice to you, the club is usually open till 5 :)

Amazing international environment , super friendly staff and great music

I had a great time. Me and the homie walked in at, like, 1 a.m. Regular check-up at the entrance, then it was straight vibes. The music was excellent, the drinks were reasonably priced, the bouncer was hella friendly, and most importantly, the atmosphere was great. We met a couple of Iranian chicks in there, and it was nothing but good vibes. I even broke a glass by accident, and they were really cool about it. I'd say the only downside was that there was no dance floor or a space for people to actually get active.

It’s a wonderful place great for every night Mixed music and always full. The staff is helpful, quick and friendly. We went almost every night when we were here for vacation. Big plus!

Very nice service, great music and central! Free shots I only can recommend
