NOTO Philadelphia

Saw my buddy AWOL and Jayem crush a show here! Sound system and visuals were amazing. Great crowd. VIP area was cool. Would absolutely return for more EDM and dancing

do they hate money? one of the worst venues I’ve been to. the empty VIP section speaks for itself. they literally wouldn’t sell us VIP MEANWHILE their VIP section is empty as can be. hahahahaha they’ll close soon. you can’t hear anything from the back of the club. horrible sound quality. stupid rules about where you can and can’t stand

NOTO is just plain trashy. The bouncers don’t know what a real ID looks like. The bartenders will tell you to “Get The F…Out Of My Face” when asking for the lost and found after they’ve taken away your friend’s real ID.

Not to mention promoters like Neal (Neil?) will tell you you’re on a guest list yet still charge you full price while trying to sell you an overpriced table (there’s a reason no one wants to pay for them!).

Save your money, time, and headache and go to a real Philadelphia club or bar or literally anywhere but NOTO. They don’t deserve your business because they won’t respect you even when they’re guaranteed it. Places like NOTO are the reason Philadelphia gets a bad rep.

Venue is nice, a little overpacked. However, the staff is absolutely rude. The people they hire are completely unprofessional, and security team has no elementary sense of how to behave towards others. One security guard started pushing the crowd towards the center (which was full) and hurt a girl friend of mine, so we decided to go to the second floor.

The venue has no demarcations for VIP and such, no barriers either. My friend and I went onto the second floor (which was apparently VIP) unknowingly, and watched James Hype (December 2023). One security guard approached us and got into my face, got physical, and pushed.

This place has zero professionalism, hence why their ticket prices are so low. If you can find a venue that hosts the same DJ, even if it’s more expensive, go for it. This place is not worth the money until they replace their security team and properly train them how to handle their customers.

Such an unprofessional place. They have no respect for customers and zero sense of communication. They have crackheads working as security guards. The security guard threatened my life although he didnt get physical with me he started yelling that he will shoot me if he saw me again. Learn how to treat people with respect. You guys are lucky it was my last day here. I would have taken this matter to the police and also take it to court. Yes i am a lawyer. Your security guard threatened to shoot a lawyer in front of allot of guests that were near the exit. I can’t believe this place is in business still.
