Mission NYC

Me and my friends went last night to celebrate a birthday to their hip hop, kpop, and edm event and the staff were surprisingly kind and welcoming for the most part. We were scared after reading the reviews especially since we aren’t East Asian, however, they pleasantly surprised us. I can’t speak on how it regularly is, but the event was fun and it had a free friendship bracelet station included with our ticket. The only negative thing was that some of DJ’s for the night needed to coordinate their line up with eachother because we heard a few songs more than once in the span of the 3 hours we were there because two different Dj’s had them on the setlist. But otherwise the venue itself is nice and pretty clean.we will probably be back because even the crowd was pretty high energy.

Best Asian Nightclub in NYC! Our club promoter Danny and his colleague Leona always take great care of us. It’s always a great place to meet new people!

Really nice place overall but Saturday night March 8th bought a drink for $20 but register froze so bartender asked for cash and afterward I check my account which got charged. $40 dollars for 1 drink wayyyyyyy to much. Would give 5 star if I can get refund. Refund posted! This place is truly amazing. Will visit every weekend. Happy 7th anniversary!

Mission is one of the few clubs in the city that explicitly advertises itself as Asian and grounded in being a place where AANHPI folk can feel safe. However, it's pretty obvious that this definitely isn't true for all Asians. While it was kind of a running joke in my friend group that I would definitely not get in if I swapped shirts with my East Asian friends which had graphics on them, it was definitely a bit sad to see the racial hierarchy of EA > white > black/brown people. Still, we frequented Mission because some nights the music would be good, it's not packed wall to wall, and entry isn't crazy, which is honestly all you can ask for in a club in Manhattan. However, for me, one night 2 years ago changed that. Mission's primary promoter, Kevin, will generally tell people to message him for a code. For LNY, my friends and I decided to go to Mission. Up to this point, I've never received this code- basically if you weren't an East Asian girl or a good-looking EA guy/white person you weren't going to get it. I was kind of fed up never getting the code and I thought that Kevin wouldn't be explicitly racist. Boy was I wrong. I swapped my insta profile for one of my EA guy friends and changed my name to a common EA guy name + last name and got the code. When I reached the door, Kevin spent a minute flipping through my insta (I guess trying to see if I had screen-recorded? idk), before handing my phone back and saying there's no way that he sent the code to me. Mind you, the only person I was in line with at that time was my EA girlfriend. Clearly, we all knew what he meant by that. I haven't been back to Mission since this event left such a bad taste in my mouth. While this type of discrimination in the Asian community is well-documented and it's not just Mission, it's ironic that Kevin's pinned posts on his insta are messages in support of providing a safe space for AAPI. In a broader context, it's not really a surprise that South Asians have been closing ranks because of this type of behavior- why should we defend the broader goals of the AANHPI community in society and in cultural and professional organizations when we face this type of discrimination from our East Asian brethren? If you're South Asian or even if you're East Asian and have South Asian friends that you want to support, please don't spend your time and money here. To Mission: do better, actually support the entirety of OUR community.

Highly DO NOT recommend! The security was extremely rude, yelling and harassing us to take off our coats, and accused us of trying to get away with it. First off, there was no clear sign that coat check was MANDATORY. I’ve never heard of a place that forced people to coat check. I was genuinely cold. It was truly a very negative experience. Had he been polite and respectful about this, then that would’ve been a different story. There’s a way to provide customer service and this was not it. If you want to be treated like a criminal, be disrespected by security, and harassed to take your jacket off regardless of whether you’re cold (or have Raynaud’s) then this is the place for you! Plus: - Covers were $20 cash only - Coat check $4 cash only - 2 drink minimums - Bounty hunters for people w/ coats

Extraordinarily bad experience with security/check in — we came for a birthday celebration but were yelled at extremely aggressively when one of us didn’t want to coat check a light jacket. When we asked if we could speak to staff, security ushered us out and screamed at us that we were *ON THE WAY OUT*, as if we were peasants or some sort of animals. Look, I get that clubs are just trying to make money off coat checks. I get that security is contracted out. I get that this is one of the few “upscale” Asian clubs. Yet with all those caveats, I cannot in good conscience support this venue until they change how security is run. How can the club purportedly providing a “safe, inclusive, and vibrant space for Asian Americans,” treat their own community as if we were livestock that can be bullied and verbally abused? If you are reading this and looking for a venue to host a birthday party or similar event, I can personally recommend/connect you with at least a dozen (Asian-owned/supportive) venues that treat customers infinitely better.

Had a very nice night. after getting dissapointed by other expensive clubs . We searched for a while in the midtown area.compared to those this club jas entry for just 20$. Its agreat place for dance floor. Nice vibe. This is a great place will go again. You dont get drinks for the cover though. But nice beats and music. All lf the crowd is korean 95% is korean or asian.

Horrible management. You’re forced to pay to check your coat, after paying a cover. I’ve never heard of a place that requires you to remove your clothes. They’ll let some girls who are “showing more skin” keep their coats on but not other girls who are wearing more, based entirely on a man’s subjective assessment of a woman’s comfort level in her own clothes. And after waiting in line for 30 minutes you’d expect a better crowd than that on a peak Saturday night after midnight.

I've gone to Mission a handful of times. And it's been great every time. Mission has good vibes, good EDM, and a good East Asian crew. The wait is sensible (under 30 minutes) and they don't employ those nasty drinks like Den Social and force you to buy a table, or wait 2-3 hours to get in. Mission has visiting artists from Asia who are breaking through. The artists are engaging with the crowd, and I enjoy the night head banging away. Definitely visit Mission if you're looking for a mostly East Asian club while in NYC

Very weird night club. I don't know how to say but when we came at 23pm, there is no people inside and the vibe very strange. Unbelievable feeling!

Came here on Saturday night with a group of girls. Cover fee after midnight is $20 cash. After you pay your cover fee and walk in, you are stopped by another staff security who tells you to put your stuff for coat check for $4 PER ITEM. You may get away with it if you have a blazer or light cardigan over a tank top but fall/winter jackets are stashed and umbrellas too - for $4 PER ITEM. They will not let you go in otherwise. The bar is a huge square area you see after you pass the prison-like coat check line. We had vodka shots here as it seemed to be the quickest thing to get for such a busy bar. Past the bar, is the dance floor - it's big (not Tao big but wayyy bigger than Maru's definition of big) and it gives rave/night club energy. According to other reviews, music is dependent on the DJ and I guess we came in during the wrong DJ. The music did not hit for me. It was mostly EDM. The beat kept dropping the same way - It was like listening to the same thing on repeat. The others seemed to have a good time but not sure if that's due to being under alcohol influence or they really just enjoy listening to the same thing 100x. One thing I'm happy about is the bathrooms here. Multiple stalls for many women. No long bathroom lines! This place was definitely an experience for me. Don't think I'll come back here unless Jay Park decides to bless the place again with actual music.

Professional, good music, good facility They accept card if you order two or more drinks, otherwise it's cash only. Early in the opening hours it's good. You have space to dance, towards 1am it gets very crowded, a bit uncomfortable to vibe at that point, but still managed to have a good time. Bouncers were professional, adhere to dress code and be polite, you'll likely be fine. Music was great and overall experience was good. Will come back

Would give zero stars if I could. Paid they $20 female and $30 male entry fee (and if I may, that is quite sexist) just to ATTEMPT to pay it AGAIN after stepping out for a smoke break. Upon second entry I was DEMANDED that I pay the entrance fee again and after 15 minutes of back-and-forth, we gave in and decided to wait on line and pay AGAIN. Just for the entry person to tell us she wouldn't accept our money??? Tell me how I can wave $60 in front of someone's face and have them REJECT MY MONEY?? Please, tell me?? Never going here ever again, better off spending your money at Maru, Den, or even Slate.

Came to support the DJ. Brought my male asian friend with me. $20 cover for girls and $30 for guys to get in. We were the most well-behaved people there. We danced on the side of the dance floor, because I don't like being too crowded and getting pushed left and right. I bought a $5 water bottle because I was thirsty. We had normal dance moves and kept to ourselves. We were just dancing there 100% sober, and suddenly security comes and says my friend needs to leave. I tell him that he must have the wrong person, because we literally are stone cold sober and not doing anything wrong at all. Security wouldn't provide any reasoning, and said it came from management. Literal zero sense. Please provide an apology and a refund. In the winter, they force you to do coat check even if you have a thin jacket on. Rude what if I'm cold?

One of the worst nightclubs I've been to in NYC in my opinion. Don't think i'll ever go back here again. While waiting in the line, one of the bouncers asked ticket holders to come to the front. We went to move to him and another bouncer was letting a girl into the line at the same time because she had tickets too, and because I was in the way while waiting for the entirety of my friend group to reach the front, the second bouncer started throwing a fit and went off on a long speech about how chivalry is dead because i didn't move aside for the girl (Okay go off i guess?). Eventually he realized I wasn't gonna bite and try to argue or fight and the first bouncer had already given us our wristbands so we just walked past him. Inside was actually okay, but too crowded, which is par for the course with most Manhattan Clubs i suppose. Towards the end of Hoang's set, one of the people at the tables started throwing ice in the crowd and I saw a guy who got hit go up to confront him, and the table guy pointed a lit sparkler in his face. As far as I'm aware, he didn't face any repercussions for this. The club honestly just has awful staff and an awful table crowd. I would avoid it. The GA crowd itself was fine, but that doesn't really make up for the rest of it

If I could give 0 I would !!!!! This place sucks and the staff is rude btw is lame ! They make you wait to look like it is packed but it is not it is empty music sucks and they over charge

Very disappointed. I have frequented mission multiple times. This time however, during coatcheck they gave us one less ticket. And REFUSES to let us pick up our jacket. Obviously I'm not walking home like this when it's dumb brick outside. Very disrespectful and rude, can't even get my jacket. The coat check person was very condescending and just told me I needed to wait til the end (which makes sense but I did NOT lose my ticket, I was simply not given one). In the end I got lucky because my ID happened to be in my pocket and they gave me back my jacket but, very disappointed. I kept showing them a picture of me in my jacket. AND it wasn't the basic one, it was just a cheap blue jacket. Can't believe this

How is this place still operating? The way they extort money & discriminate against their patrons is beyond disgusting. They denied my group of guy friends entry because they had no females entering with them & basically stated that "the only way for you to get in, is to get a bottle and table, which is going to be $600." Are you kidding me? Not only do they force you to get a table, they force EVERY FEMALE to check in their sweater, jacket, coat, etc, while every guy is still wearing their hoodie, sweatshirt, jacket. You have absolutely no say in the matter. Lastly, the bartenders have such a superiority complex about them and are just plain rude. To the male & female bartender working on 9/29, you really need to check your attitude, especially if you work in the service industry. Do yourself a favor & don't waste your time at this trashy place. Vibes, music, & workers are all garbage. Negative 5 stars.

I don't leave bad reviews often but god I felt racially Profiled. Went into the line with a few friends. They checked out IDs and escorted us out of the line for a "private event". Line was filled with nothing but east and south Asian individuals. No way the bouncer had all the names memorized for a private event. He looked at my name and definitely recognized I wasn't East Asian. Place is racist. I'd say avoid but if you aren't Asian or come with a group of them your chances or entering are low.

First thing I have to say is that it was not my choice to come to Mission and I already knew that it wouldn't be my vibe but when the whole group wants to go you cant really say no. We went around midnight and there was already a long ass line which was shocking to me considering it was so early. There was a $20 cover and upon entering of course it wasn't even that packed. I ordered a shot and a tequila soda which came out to $36. I wasn't there for too long mostly because the music was just too techno for my liking and not super danceable. I hear this spot is super well known and popular but I can't see myself coming back.

First off, AWFUL service. There were some very nice security guards/bouncers, but the leader of them, was extremely unprofessional, not being able to tell the difference between a REAL ID and a fake one. I turned 21 in early July of 2023. It says clearly on the ID that I am of age. He deemed my ID as a fake, to which, my birth certificate and passport would state otherwise. Honestly, should I just carry my birth certificate with me instead? On the bottom of your ID you've received before you're 21 includes the "U18 Until Date" and "U21 Until Date". All of those IDs will say different days than your ACTUAL birthday. And I understand, that is when your ID is valid, however, I was visiting this location, AFTER those dates. It was the 25th of July that day. The thing is, it's not about that. The fact is, the head bouncer, was UNABLE to identify how the dates on the bottom were different than the days on my DOB on top. His exact words, "Okay, this ID is flaky, and fake. Why are the birthdays on top that says DOB different from the U21 Until Date?" To think a professional bouncer would not know this detail on Identification Cards. Keep in mind, this is a New York State ID, meaning, I know he has seen plenty of these. Just overall, unprofessional, and I will not be returning along with my friends. However, thanks to the other kind bouncers for being attentive. Attached below is the proof of my said point, along with an online example ID provided by the New York DMV. The names are blurred out because it is my ID, along with a friends.

scammers extra charging on credit card, please do not skip over this review my friends and i visited new york and went to this club on september 2. we paid for our drinks inside via credit cards (chase & amex). all charges looked normal the night after. after one whole week, we get a range of new charges on our cards on september 11 varying between $4.50-$5.50. be aware!

Since my last review, I have avoided Mission, but when my friend told me about how to DM the co-owner and get in for free before 12 am, I joined in. For the guys in our group who didn't get a response back (there's definitely a preference for East Asians), they had to pay $40 cover. Mission is pretty strict about dress code. My guy friend who wore a graphic tee had to flip his shirt inside out. They also checked my vax card but not my other friend's. This time at Mission, I had a fantastic night. The music really does depend on which DJ is playing, and very recently on a Saturday night, there was a mix of mainstream throwback (ex. Livin' On a Prayer, Everytime We Touch) and current pop/rap (ex. Body by Megan Thee Stallion, I Like You by Post Malone & Doja Cat) and EDM. For me, it struck the right balance, as too much EDM will throw me off. Most nightclubs are so loud that my ears ring afterwards if I forget to bring earplugs, but Mission didn't cause that this time, which was a surprise. It also wasn't too crowded. You could stay close to the bar or lounge area on the side if you want to avoid being pressed up against people. The bathrooms are still quite clean, but the lollipops are not really free; tip is expected if you take them. A water bottle here is $5...I really wish they would give out free water in cups like most bars do.

I got covid here. But also cramped, music that's impossible to dance to, $4 coat check, impossible to have fun. Wish I stayed home.

Staff is rude and you're forced to check your coat in for $4. I had on an overshirt and they still made me check it in. I wanted to keep it on and they threatened me to check it or they're kicking me out. I asked the reason for this rule and they said because they don't search people which is ridiculous. Just do the search and let people keep their coats. But they want to take as much money from you as they can. Then of course when you're ready to leave and go to retrieve the coat that you were forced to check in there is a huge line which makes the experience even more unpleasant. I hope this place shuts down honestly. Trash club.

Obviously this place is known for being an "Asian" club, but I do see people of other ethnicities come here too. But majority of the people are Asian, specifically East Asian. There is a cover of $20 for girls and $40 for guys typically here, but if you follow their social media, you can find out ways to get in for free on certain days on the weekend, which is annoying having to hover over their Instagram every weekend just to figure it out, but as a marketing person, I can see why it's a good tactic. LOL. I don't like their coat check though, which is typically $4-5 per coat (more so a winter coat or something bulky) and they don't let you go inside without taking it off unless it's a coat that goes with your outfit. It gets annoying trying to get your coat back at the end and people cut you in line so it's a hassle. Drinks are super expensive here, like $20 per drink/shot. Although, their mixed drinks have been good from what I've have. Not worth the size of glass it comes in though. It gets very crowded on the dance floor but you're typically able to move around if you just keep shoving people out of the way if you need to get somewhere. You'd think it would be more fun in the front but honestly people just stand there too and awkwardly look around. I blame the people that come here for making me question why I'm there sometimes LOL. The music here is alright... it's EDM or throwbacks or pop music but I find most of the EDM here very mediocre. It seems that even if someone in the club is definitely past the point of no return or lying on the ground, I haven't seen bouncers or any staff do anything about them. They just seem to be like "Ummm" and walk away. So that could be a pro or con, I guess. They also state they care about dress code but I've seen both guys and girls come into the club in hoodies and sweatpants as if they rolled out of bed so... I don't know if they care about that anymore. Mission definitely initially gives off a club that cares about your appearance, who you are type of vibe, but once you go in, you realize they really don't care as long as you're giving them money. That's my POV.

I usually never leave reviews, but I have had such a terrible experience that ruined the rest of the night for me I had to write one. It's my first time at Mission. The music was great, they were playing EDM and it was actually really good. I had fun bopping to the DJ. It was a good time, until I went to the coat check to retrieve my coat. My friend "H" checked in 3 coats at 1:25AM: hers, our friend "A", and mine. Friend H was given a ticket and I was given a ticket to later retrieve the coat. Friend A was not given a ticket. When I went to retrieve my coat around 3:00-3:30AM, I showed the coat guy my ticket and he grabbed Friend A's coat. I told him that wasn't mine and he said no ticket no coat. He had only given us 2 tickets to check out 3 coats, so of course I did not have a third ticket to show him to retrieve my coat because it doesn't exist! We never got a third ticket! And not once did he try to help. He was rude. He showed no kindness at all, did not try to help, and did not try to understand what was going on. He did not even ask what my coat looked like or if there was anything in my coat that only I would know. He also did not apologize at all for messing up the tickets. I understand it's a nightclub and security for the coats should be taken seriously, but that's not an excuse to be a horrible human being. I am thankful for my friends and the owner for helping me out. I wish it didn't have to escalate to that point. The coat guy was Caucasian with blue eyes, round jaw, full facial beard, and dark (black?) hair about 5'5"-5'7" tall stationed at the far left coat check window on 11/11/2023. Avoid him at all costs. He is a horrible human being and will not help you at all. I don't think I'll ever go back, which is unfortunate given that I'm from out of state and wanted to experience New York at night with my friends. If you do end up going here, don't bring a coat.

I got out to many different night clubs and events. This is the only night club that I've been rejected multiple times, no matter what I'm wearing. I strongly think they are racist. I've been asked to leave out the line even in dress-code. One time, even the black doorman asked me to leave, so honestly I'm not sure. But I have asian friends who get in, with no problem.

Had the time of our lives here last weekend! Bouncers were really cool, excepting the one by the coat check line who was extremely pushy about paying for coat check and was very rude to the women in line. That said, the service was great, attentive staff, great music choices.

music is good when they don't play house often, the night I went here it was an edm night. they have 2 rooms: 1 hip hop, 1 edm. first off, the hip hop was BARELY hip hop.. it was mainly house edm sadlyy. depending on the dj, they didn't only play house; they also played dubstep which is lit. also didn't know this was a thing but you have to pay for a coat check ($4/per item) to enter the club which is rlly dumb ?? Mission is filled w/ East asians but it was overall alright!! nice venue

MODELS AND BOTTLES!! Where Asians come to flick that cash and impress all the dolled up babes and honeys!!! Every night this place is open, you will see betas walking about throwing their mom and dad's cash or spending all that money they made in their finance bro investment banking/private equity/credit jobs. Music is pretty dece, but you have to make sure to be alpha and get on that dance floor and grab those ABGs. If there is not enough room, just shove people out of the way to make room for yourself and your friends on the floor. As everyone says it doesn't matter how much you spend it matters that "You miss 100% of the shots that you don't take!". After secretly working the doors and slipping both the door guy and some randos $20 (this bro was trying to say he was our best friend and while I refused to pay him my friend ultimately acquiesced) to get in since the line after the Dabin concert was hella long, we were stuck waiting in the coat check line for another 20 minutes. Drinks are NYC priced. Ultimately with how much we had spent ($400 after everything was said and done including drinks, $20 cover per person etc.) we should have just gotten a table instead.

As much as I dislike reviewing a place before experiencing the entire experience, mission left a sour taste early on. The bouncer who had a durag the night of 6/2 totally ruined the vibe. After coming from another club that had two separate lines for VIP and GA, I asked a simple question of "hey, is this VIP or GA?" , he immediately held an argumentative stance and prevented me from coming in which left a bitterness in my club experience. Mission has to re-evaluate their security staff as they continue lay a crucial experience into the overall nightclub experience

3.5 stars - Came on a Saturday night with a party of 7. $20 for females, $40 for males. We arrived at 11:30pm and waited about 30-40 minutes for entry. The line went all the way down the block so I highly recommend coming in when it opens (11pm). Cash only for cover, with a broken ATM so yikes :( so come prepared! We've heard our fair share of racist stories about the bouncers; I can't say much about that but our Asian group was welcomed warmly. Also, props to the staff for checking for proof of vaccination prior to entering. The music- EDM, with a touch of throwbacks. I was disappointed in that they did not play any top 40 hits, but that's just me. Drinks were about $15 a glass so definitely pre-game somewhere else. The venue was decently sized with a fun, but young (early 20s) crowd. Overall, I had a decent night. Maybe it's my aging bones, but I'm not drooling for my next return.

Don't waste your time coming here. A $20 cover charge, MANDATORY $4 coat check, extremely over charged drinks, and terrible one-note EDM music. I wasn't allowed to keep my jacket on and had to check it even though it was freezing, but people snorting cocaine on the dance floor was allowed. Overall, terrible experience and will not be going back.

Fun times. Good music. Size of dance floor is ok. Prices for drinks are fair for Manhattan.

- Predominantly east Asian club - Regular entrance on the left, table service entrance on the right - If you're not on their list, be prepared to pay $20 (girls) / $40 (guys) - There's an ATM inside - They scroll up in the texts to check if you have someone's screenshot - Coat check $4 - Empty around 12-12:30am - Gets packed around 1am, dancers come on shortly after. They come on again around 2:30-3. - The music is a hit or miss for me. Sometimes they'll incorporate more hip pop/pop but mostly it's just EDM. Really depends on the DJ. Make sure to have a look at who's playing before you go. - Be prepared to drop some $$$

They advertised free entry for girls and ended up not honoring the advertisement. In addition, they forced us to use their coat check but charged everyone to do so (screams "we're forcing you to give us more money after you already paid to get in") Mission would have been a great experience other than everything that is happening at entry way.

Came here on a stormy Friday night and the place still had a decent amount of patrons. Definitely not a mega club but, there's no problem getting bottle service and sweet treatment for your money spent. Become a regular and they may even put your name on the screen to celebrate your bday! There are two ways to get in to Missions night club. Either pay cash $20 per person then take the standing room or, get on the 'other line' and get the bottle service = you get a table. Eitherway, having options is always a plus! Vibe was chill.. lots of fun, young and beautiful people partying it up. Bar set up was cool... enough space to pick up a drink as needed. Bar was quite busy. Beer, hard liquor & cocktails... standard bar scene. Price of drinks are good reflection of NYC clubs. I stick to full bottles, bottle beers, bottle waters... you get the point. Music was on point. Especially if you are into edm / house, it's definitely worth the visit. Yes, there are lazers beaming and ladies dancing on stage. Location is very easy to find. If you drive in to the city, driving around few blocks in tne vicinity will likely get you street parking.

This is the fifth time I've been to this club and can honestly say that the fifth time will be the last time I'll ever come here. First off, just wanted to say the workers there was completely sexist that they allowed only the girls to sit down while the guys cannot. Some of my girl friends sat on the sofa but some of my guy friends were told from the bouncers that the males weren't allowed to sit. Also, I assumed everything went down after some random guy threw up near the bar area, and he wasn't even part of my friend group. So the bouncers were strict on us and they threw out two of my friends' drinks and told them to get out TWICE. And they weren't even drunk! Knowing my friends for years, I knew they weren't drunk so I don't need some rando bouncer to claim that my friends were drunk even though clearly they weren't. They were treated unfairly.Honestly hearing this from my friends and having their night and my best friend's birthday ruined pissed me off to the point that I went up to the manager and complained about the bouncers. Thankfully the manager apologized and gave me the two drinks for my two friends who were treated poorly. But that didn't change a thing, because once I went out of the club to give my friends their drinks, most of the bouncers outside told me I cannot drink outside the club. It wasn't even for me it was for my friends who were mistreated by the bouncers inside the club and the drinks were from the manager as an apology I explained to the bouncers at the exit. However, they did not understood the situation and just told me to drink the two cups inside the club. How could I when the drinks weren't even for me? And i couldn't even go inside to explain the problem to the manager because another bouncer was keeping me in the entrance area to finish the drinks. The whole situation was completely stupid because the bouncers only cared about the rules of the club and not very understanding. I literally just left the drinks on the side because I wasn't in the mood to finish the drinks. Important note to the people who wish to visit this particular club: DO NOT EVER VISIT HERE. You won't have a good time when the music here was whack and the bouncers mistreated you and handles certain situations unprofessionally.

Confused how they are still in business. Don't waste ur time. Better options available

Usually I never write reviews on yelp, but I feel like I need to just because of how BAD of an experience my friends and I had here. We bought a table for the night and dropped a lot of money for two fifths. Once we finished the alc we decided we wanted to have fun on the dance floor. So we moved literally five feet from our table. Next thing we come back to is a ton of strangers who were using our table. Turns out they resold our table since we weren't buying more alcohol and went to dance. What bs that is. If my friends and I are dropping a lot of money on small table we expect to have it for the rest of the night. We also lost our jackets because people stole them while we were still at the table. Keep in mind there is a literal bouncer standing right at our table and no one was helping us either find pur jacket or at the very least let us ask the coat check unless we LEFT the club and couldn't go back in. From the overpriced drinks to the horrible staff I can safely say that I will NEVER go back to mission again, unless I feel like having a bad time then yeah I know where to go. Whoever reads this, if you take anything away from this just go to another club. Save your money and your belongings.

$20 cover? Hell to the no. After standing outside for a half hour to get in, I was not happy about the $4 mandatory.....yes mandatory coat check. Bathrooms are clean and the bathroom lady has some mints and candy. The puking girls took full advantage of that. The bouncers don't mess around, anyone that looks suspicious or seems over-beveraged will get the boot. No ifs, ands, or buts! Unless you pay $200 for bottle service, no seats or special treatment for you. Not sure how they handle birthdays but just go in knowing it won't be a cheap date. I was one of two white girls at the club, the rest were Asian and it was fun to be submerged in the Asian night life, however many will make you feel like an outcast. The DJ of the night was wild, the light show paired with the dancing crowd made you feel like you were at Coachella! It was fun to dance to, mixed with a few k-pop options, but a lot of typical club favorites with some pretty intense and hype remix's. Attention to those who need to ball on a budget: shots are $16....yes you heard me $16. Absolutely not. Men, while the girls get inside you will have to wait outside. They only let three or so of you in at a time after every group of girls. You are considered swine, just accept it. The mission of Mission it seems is to break your wallet. Word of advice, pregame before....

This was the worst experience I have ever had. The music was trash and the alcohol had nothing in it. Our nights got worse when the bouncer began to make racist and fat phobic comments at us. He yelled at us cursing telling us to get out of his way, when all we were trying to do was get in line. Next, he made discriminatory comments towards our friend who had gained some weight from having a baby. Overall, do not go to the club. Do not waste your time or your money here.

It seems like it's already been said multiple times but the bouncers here are doing a terrible job. They literally snapped my valid, state-issued drivers license in half. Comical but still frustrating. I've got to apply for another one now.

I've known circle and mission since it's been around for years. I'm disgusted by this establishment especially Mr.Kwak. I am not taking a trip back EVER AGAIN! I am Korean myself. They care about money more than society and people's safety. The last time, I was there was last month. I saw how they treated people is revolting. The bouncers are the WORST and I see why people hated them, especially if you're not asian. Bouncers are pretty selective with people on the line too. I was waiting on the line to get into the club with my friends and there was a huge altercation between the staff, manager, bouncer and the people on the line. It was messy on how they dealt with the situation and assaulting people is their answer. you will see people who getting drunk too, which is normal but over consuming alcohol became an issue. I saw a girl who got knocked out due to over consuming alcohol, while she was throwing up on the streets. she was in a bad condition.. even worst is when the bouncers treats her and her boyfriend like they are an issue and they're yelling at them to get out of their property and pushing them out. The club aren't responsible for people's safety, which irks me so much. People are getting hurt in the club every night on the weekends and there's so many problems that occur,, One of the bouncer gave me a dirty look for no reason when he checked my ID and vaccination card. I don't know what's his problem but he needs help. maybe because I don't wear heavy makeup lol,,,, I don't look pretty enough?? The club is dirty and the energy was off too. I always kept my mask on..Not because of my safety but it stinks;;; I don't know why people still support this business. not everyone knows how to party and most people are weird;;; lol- some DJ's are ok but most of them ruins the music by just adding weird EDM songs and their own remixes. It's always best to have cash with you rather than having your card. Drinks are $10 or up! Water bottles are $5, which is ridiculous plus their drinks are bad quality. So I left at 2am because it was my last trip back there. I seen enough...;; **I warn everyone that, My friends caught COVID and tested positive last week on that night and it's no joke anymore. I know the business is still going because money is on their mind, people's safety don't mean anything to them. Even if you complain to the staff about it, they are not helping at all. Please be responsible because it's still happening out there! **

Had an amazing time at mission, was able to get in free before 12 by dming Kevin for the password

bruh can someone bring a formal complaint against this place. NO FREE TAP WATER ON REQUEST. they're putting people's health in jeopardy if they don't give out free tap water and are forcing people to pay. they claim they need to charge for 5 dollar bottled water to make a profit but literally everything else is overpriced and they bring in a ton of foot traffic still so there's just no way. only get tap water if you buy a drink

Mission is so weird. It's an asian club but i was actually the only person in there who wasn't of east asian descent. I felt like I was in an alternate universe. The dj was pretty much playing mainstream edm (~like chainsmokers, avicii...rip) but the strobe lights were pretty. Where it gets weird is how NO ONE WAS DANCING?? This place could be really fun if you go with a really outgoing group and just send it on the dancefloor, but everyone else around you is going to be in a stationary position. The other problem is that it is disgustingly expensive. 20 dollar cover charge, cash only, then once you're inside you are forced to throw down another 4 dollars to coatcheck your pocketbook against your will. I will say, that despite the other comments, the bouncers were really nice. This was at like 2 AM, there wasn't a line, and they let us straight in. My friend wasn't even dressed appropriately, and they told him to just be aware of that for next time but still let us in.

Dj was excellent but the drinks were subpar, expensive, and even charge $5 for water when my friend was too intoxicated? Terrible

DONT GO HERE!!!! This place sucked when it was Flash Factory and it's still just terrible four years later... Bathroom attendant harasses people for not tipping them and will try and pick a fight with you. Racist staff. Terrible outdated sound system. Awful bartenders who are slower at making drinks than grandparents at a retirement center.

If I could leave 0 stars I would. To start, the bouncer almost didn't let my friend in for a dress code issue. He was trying to see if they were sweatpants, while anyone could see they were regular pants. Later on another security guard accused my friend of being too drunk and forced my friend to leave. My friend was not too drunk. He was perfectly fine and felt awful from the whole situation. This is not cool especially because there were numerous people who actually were messed up and weren't told a thing. The various accusations of racism on this place don't help either. If you factor all that in this place is a total let down. Never coming back. If you don't take my word for it, read the countless other negative reviews. Where there is smoke there is fire

Worst service here. They tried kicking me out even if I was okay. My friends defended me. Then the bouncer followed me and threw my drink out and told me to leave. I was pissed. And then the manager saw me outside and said I seemed fine and let me back in. I can't believe it. My mood was ruined and my night was ruined. My cousins birthday was ruined.

Had a great time. Great service. Love the staff. Nice people and clean place. Bathroom clean and good music. Khris and kev where great at the entrance. Super polite and cordial. Recommend this place to all my friends.

Story for the day: My keys fell out from my wallet on a Friday night and the next day I called at 10PM before they open and luckily they have the key and I told them I'll come later to pick it up. I went to the venue and this cocky rude guy in a blue suit told me that it's operating hours and he can't go upstairs to look and that I have to come back tmrw during an event. The fuck? Was I suppose to tip off the guy or something? This place is a scam.

Nice new megaclub from the same management of Circle NYC. Music is mainstream EDM, and clientele is as you expect Asian Americans. If you're looking for something different than Circle, then look elsewhere. Otherwise, if you're a fan of Bobby K; this is the place to be.

It's the best Asian nightclub in NY period. But the crowd is 50% Korean / Chinese fobs. If this is what you are looking for, you will love it. If not go somewhere else. The interior is pretty bare bones and not that nice compared to Marquee, Tao, etc. but has just enough to be considered an nyc night club. Cover is $20-40. Bottles are $600 per (for vodka) so not very cheap. Worth checking out but don't get your hopes up. I never have a great time here.. but giving it 4 stars given it's the only true all Asian nightclub in nyc with 500+ person capacity. Maru has a better crowd but it is tiny.

Music: terrible (DJs don't know how to DJ) Service: assholes Drinks: overpriced as hell. I'd never visit again.
