SCL Royal Oak at 401 South Lafayette Avenue, Royal Oak, Michigan.

What a horrible pretentious place. I called about a table and a bottle and was quoted 1000 dollars for 3 bottles and nothing less ! I walked in and thought maybe in person I could just get 1 bottle ...for 350 maybe which I would have thought horribly overpriced but gladly paid to make sure my party had fun. I was told No..it's all sold out ! So my party of 12 proceeded to spend our money at the bar at 10 dollars a drink. That was short lived because 30 minutes into it I saw what seemed to be the owner tell the bouncers to push "that group" away from the bar so 3 little 20 year old girls can get in an buy 3 dollar beers.
I and my whole crew have careers and have money. And I don't say that to brag but to emphasize that we have money to spend and are willing to spend it. I am so turned off by what happened tonight that I or none of the people I associate with will ever come back. Also...by the time we left at 12 am ...none of the VIP booths have been filled ! NONE!
I am European , and as one, I hear a lot about how pretentious my people can be . Seeing the way the owner and workers behaved towards their patrons I now understand. This is royal oak ...not Vegas . You can pretend that it is for the next few months but when that wears off you won't last. Like every other pretentious wannabe European silly place that has tried to do business in royal oak.
PS ..although it was cold outside ...we gladly took our money to D'Amato around the corner where my whole crew spent well over 1000 dollars in the next hour. Good job guys....good luck with your silly business.
