AXIS Lounge

My coworkers and I met up at this place for a few drinks and let me tell you! Que the bartender was on point with them Long Islands with the green olives 🫒. She did her thing. And congratulations on her unborn baby boy.

DJ Prince Taj rocks Axis lounge. He knows his music and plays all the goodies. Many of us wish he was the resident DJ not just a fill in. Axis give DJ Prince Taj a permanent set. We love him!!!

The band was great, the drinks were good. The waitress walked passed my table many times. She took orders at the table in front of me and behind me. I ended up cleaning off my table and taking orders for my table.

This is a great go to spot. The DJ IS NICE , always got us dancing! The crowd is mature. The bartenders are kind but the drinks can be a little too strong. Other than that. Me and my girl love coming here !

I love going here, it's always a good time. There tends to be an older crowd, which I enjoy. Music is always great but my favorite is when they have Dueling Pianos.

Soooo, let me tell u about my experience here on Superbowl Sunday 2024. Axis sits in the middle of the casino (just about). There is no bathroom in the lounge so u have to leave & go to the restroom in the casino. We were there for at least 1.5 hours before the game started. No food in there either AND u cannot bring food inside. Therefore, we had spent a couple of hundred dollars on nothing but drinks! Eventually, we needed to use the restroom. There were 6 of us. We were told that if we left for the restroom, we would have to stand in line to get back in unless we had a wrist band which u could only get if u bought a booth...and the booths were sold out. The staff were more than willing to give us wrist bands so we could go pee, but the manager, a short, black woman refused to let us have any. We asked if we could buy them. No. One of the guys had a room in the hotel. He couldn't even use his room key to come back in. But here's the kicker...only the black ppl needed wristbands or had to wait in line. We watched white ppl walk in without wristbands & without waiting in line. It was absolutely absurd. Then, they claimed the Fire Marshall...no! We were there a few weeks ago for a lions playoff game & the crowd was double the size. Bottom line: black ppl, do not spend ur money in Axis. They don't want it.

This bar is beautiful, well setup, has great staff from bartenders to security personnel, but it's getting rowdy and dangerous. You can't hear anything over the DJ's music, it's packed way too tight with people, you can't gamble at the video poker machines because everyone sits at them instead of gambling, and there's no personal space. When MGM closed Club V, they turned this into the replacement. There have been a number of big fights lately as well. How big of an incident and how badly will someone have to get hurt or worse before MGM does something about this?

I was attempting to make a reservation for my husband’s birthday. I called the Axis Lounge and got a bit of a run around about how to make a reservation so I decided to call the following evening again to try to get a better idea of pricing on bottle service, confirm a few details etc. this 2nd person I spoke with told me I had to come in to fill out a form to make a reservation so I drove from Lansing to Detroit to do this. When it got there the staff member in the lounge told me that she didn’t have any forms available but would write down my info and have the manager email me a form. I told her I specifically drove there to fill out said form that couldn’t be previously emailed to me but now it can and I drove there for no reason. So I wrote down my contact info and she said she would pass it along to the manager and she would email me. Guess what happened? 2 weeks has passed and I yet to hear from anyone. Plus, for an establishment to require bottle service for larger groups I would expect to sit on clean lounge furniture. I’ll take my money elsewhere and would advise you to do the same. Unprofessional and stale.
