As a frequent customer I must say that its losing its touch. Worse part is everytime you close down one side it's becomes to full on patio and just one side. Why you closing one side down, lack of staff? Keep bar closed and dance floor open. It makes no sense with the amount of people coming in. This is the second time we come as a group and it's happened. Also to mention music is starting to suck as well.
My go to place is becoming a disappointment.
Dropping good amount of money to get stepped on, drinks spilled because of sardines situation.
The greatness is leaving this place.

To Whom it may concern;

I am writing to inform everyone that Dirty Martini has an outstanding night club. It is a really happening place. It has been awhile since I have been clubbing but I didn’t feel out of place one bit. Some places you go you are either too young or too old for but this place is perfect for all ages. Great atmosphere and amazing music too. I had such an incredible time and lots of dancing. I will definitely be coming back. All of the bartenders, waitresses, staff and employees are awesome and very friendly. They have Incredible customer service and are very polite. I also
wanted to write about two of their employees Monika and Tiffany. These two ladies are exceptional employees who go above and beyond to help and serve their customers. I can see they are great team players. They are extremely knowledgeable, helpful and have positive attitudes. They have Incredible customer service, very polite and hard working. Truly Dirty Martini has two exceptional and hardworking employees and real keepers.

Regards

I've been to Dirty Martini a number of times over the past few years and can't say anymore about the staff and service there. The bartender downstairs with the long blonde hair (Annie I think) is great at her job! Quick service, pleasant to chat with and always remembers what I order so it's no more than quick look over and here she comes with my next drink.

Great spot! Will be visiting again soon.

It's hit-or-miss with that club on a Saturday night sometimes it's great music and great crowd and sometimes it's Very old crowd and creepy. The male bartender at the main room is super nice & friendly. The bouncers are also nice and keep the place safe.
19 May 2023 17:32
20$ cash only cover fee, there's coat check not sure how much that is.
Drinks prices are way over the top.
The bartenders do over charge you if you don't pay attention. She said 35$ for a double Gin and Ginger.
18 May 2023 0:53
Nice place.but, the crowd isn't that nice.too many men.and the ladies there are so effyy.
09 May 2023 13:24
This club is sad.and way over-priced on everything! $5 for a bottle of water? This should be free for anyone who has had too much to drink and needs to rehydrate. $18 for a tiny martini. $10 for a regular smirnoff ice? They make a killing for booze, and can't be responsible enough to give away water? Definitely will not return, and will tell others to stay away. 2 thumbs down would give negative stars if I could. The bartender stops serving to count out his tips from the register and puts them in his pocket while the bar area is full of customers.and it's not even anywhere near closing time! The cover charge is $20 and yet, there's nowhere to sit. They close off the seats with a "Reserved " sign, but nobody showed up all night
By the looks of their posts and photos on Facebook, it looks like a great party.but the music is lame in both rooms.
23 April 2023 16:18
Nice music. Loved the two types of music playing. What I don't like is that you guys only accept cash.
Cash for coat, cash for entry, cash for drinks and why?
21 January 2023 15:46
We had a pretty good time here, people were respectful and the crowd was mixed. It was super annoying that they wouldn’t accept anything but cash to enter the club. The same for coat check and drinks unless your bill is over $40. I asked the host at the door she said ‘cuz that’s how we do in here’, that was her explanation:)
03 January 2023 17:38
Wish we could use credit card not cash Well be going back tonight for the second time! Great atmosphere Great music 3 different Dj to choose from a finally a bar with older crowd.
30 December 2022 4:51
Great spot for 30 years plus to go out for a night. Also great for anyone of age but it seems to be a little older than your typical bar crowd which is nice.
27 November 2022 18:18
This is where the parent go when they drop kids off at the movies. Still a little bit of fun to be had inside.
24 November 2022 7:21
Don't go here if you're single and under 50. It's overcrowded, there's nowhere to sit (it's all reserved) and there is an expensive cover charge ($15). You're paying money to stand around.

Note: there is a $40 minimum to use a credit card.

I will never return.
17 November 2022 3:42
I came to dirty martini for my first time on Friday for my brothers birthday. Sabrina served our table she was so attentive and made sure everyone in my booth was happy and having a good time. Music was fantastic. I will definitely be back again
23 October 2022 15:40
I’ve been attending this restaurant & nightclub for so many years and must say that I’ve never been happier. This amazing venue has been like a second home to myself and husband for years. The owners & entire staff always make us feel like family and go out of their way to make sure myself, our friends and their entire clientele are treated like rock stars! This venue has two rooms to cater to your needs with two sounds. You can get there early and have dinner and then stay for the amazing music and delicious oven baked pizza they create to your liking. Free parking, phenomenal atmosphere & ambiance, great music, and so much more! I just celebrated one of birthday parties over the weekend and we were treated like stars. I can’t thank the team enough for always making sure we all have a fun night. Security is always on top of everything and are so friendly. The bartenders are the best and adore each and everyone of them! I do have my favourites of course lol one of my all time faves ever is Sue. She’s usually working the back bar by the patio which I must add is also a must to check out while you still can and the weather continues to cooperate. She’s the sweetest, most caring, professional bar tender I’ve had the honour to meet. She has beautiful long red curly hair and knows how to tend to the busy crowds. Make sure you go by and see her on Friday nights and say hello. You will not be disappointed. She’s the best!
When I lost my mom they all made sure to come up to me to pay their respects and went out of their way to make sure I’d have a good time every time I showed up to party the night away.
I’ve been supporting this superb venue for years and continue on doing so! They know how to run this business and have been doing it for so many years going back to nightclubs I’ve attended going back to the early 90s.
Thank you, DM!
See you all soon!
26 September 2022 12:01
I recently wrote a review and did not get a satisfactory reply. Maybe you should check your cameras. The tall bald guy took the cash and put in his pocket. And I clearly remember he said alcohol till 2.45. Stop fooling people.
24 September 2022 11:53
My buddies and I always have an amazing time! Friendly staff and great prices. I will be back soon.
30 August 2022 22:15
We came at around 1.50 and asked the security what time they close and when is the last call. He said 2.45 and close at 3.
But guess what no alcohol after 2. They even charged us $20 per head entry fee.
17 August 2022 9:56
Got bottle service made us pay $700 at the door. The package includes food and 2 bottles. As we were eating they said they gave us too much pizza and took them back. Welcome to dirty martini.
24 June 2022 17:19
Service was fair. Bottle service was good Our server was kind of cold but she seemed busy so would suggest hire more staff please. Service should not compromised, fair to patrons and staff in my view. Music was split between an R&B room and a bigger Top 40/dance vibe. People were not super dressed up but acceptable for a dance club. Dj's was playin well.been here twice and seems similar songs each time. Would love newer beats added in the mix. Overall a good experience. Would do a revisit depending on my crowd. Older crowd it seemed. Ample parking.
18 June 2022 4:28
Pleasantly surprised. Went to DM this past Saturday with my boyfriend on a recon mission to check it our for a Bday party I'm thinking of hosting. I would usually look at booking something downtown to go dancing and for drinks but needed a place closer to Oakville for the group I'll be hosting.

What I LOVED - mature /respectful crowd, level of effort people took in dressing to impress, quick bar service/friendly employees, good mix of people/cultures, appealing bar space and layout.

What could be slightly improved - the music - the first hour of was awesome, then it went down hill for the next hour or so then it recovered. DJ probably trying to cater to all types (didn't spend much time in the lower bar.yes there are two, you can travel between easily, but the music was old school hip hop when I walked through which was great). Music could be improved, especially if you want to keep people dancing.

I had a great evening and was honestly impressed. I'll definitely be booking the birthday party there as the bottle service booths looked fun and well appointed.

Good crowd, good vibe.definitely a new fan.
21 May 2022 12:33
Pretty much changed to a bar filled with Middle Eastern men out numbering everyone- if ur into that, great. For me, no. Dancing- music is average mix. But late night pizza is still great lol
21 May 2022 6:47
Hello,

On April 23rd I had come to your establishment for a fun night out. While in the wasroom a girl used a racial slur. Two other guest heard the N-word being used.

I brought this to the attention of security and management. I let them know I felt uncomfortable. Nothing was done. My question is what is the protocal at your establishment when racial slurs are being used?
24 October 2020 22:50
Great music playing all night long. Great crowd and reasonably priced drinks. Pizza is actually pretty good too. Older crowd which is always calls for a good time. A regular spot for me and the buds when we want to go out and have a good time. Recommended to anyone 29+ who want to go clubbing
12 October 2020 15:19
Love this place, can’t wait until dancing is possible again, hang in there everybody! Patiently waiting
23 May 2020 19:42
I liked the fact that there were 2 different dance halls playing different music so you can choose where you wanna dance and what you want to listen to. Really cool.
23 May 2020 8:01
Fun night out with singleinthecity.ca and salsa dancing. Couldn't think of a better place to go out for a night of dancing. Food was great and the service was solid!
21 May 2020 22:08
I liked the Salsa Friday Night. It's a great lounge to hang out with friends.

Music could realllllly be better. We happened to be around lot of people from very varied age groups.

But that's not their problem.ot could've just been a random night like that.

Safe, gloomy and kickass atmosphere.
15 May 2020 4:23
I found the place great. Friendly door staff and pleasant management. The bartender Naz was great, attentive and very prompt. I look forward to my next visit.
14 May 2020 20:29
My first time at DM. I was impressed when I entered and sat at the bar, until the disco started. I was not impressed at all. I want to have a good dance without people pushing me all over the place. That was very annoying did not enjoy my dancing at all. DM you should have a dance floor.
12 May 2020 15:32
Nice place for mature crowd. And when I was there there was a fight in the bar. My first experience was a bit disappointing. But can't say the bar is bad if some idiots decided to start a fight. But the security was super quick put down the fight! Will go again!
06 May 2020 2:07
Fun bar and club in the Oakville environs. The music selection is great. The spot is split into 2 parts with different music selections. 2 different DJs. So you can choose what part you'll rather stay in based on what you're feeling like. Drinks are not too expensive. I like that it's located in a complex that has a Cinema, restaurants and other side attractions so you can plan an entire night out in one place.
29 April 2020 22:38
Okay bar but the vibe and the atmosphere was extremely predatory and creepy. I also feel awful for the servers I hope that management takes steps to ensure they are okay and that their bouncers keep an eye out for them as well as guests.
21 April 2020 5:37
Always a good time here with lots of mature people who all come for the same reasons to have a good time and dance. I like the 2 room options as well. Good vibes everytime
14 April 2020 4:13
They need to cap amount of ppl they let in. Too crowded. Drinks are on the high side. Overall good place, mature crowd, two rooms with 2 different types of music. All types of agendas happening
12 April 2020 12:55
Great time at Dirtys with a big crowd celebrating a few friends birthdays. The staff was very attentive and made it a great experience for everyone. Fair prices for bottle service and a very tasty pizza included. Especially great service from Jennie at the bar. Great music with two rooms of different sounds to add great variety and make everyone happy. Definitely will be going back again soon!
02 April 2020 20:31
Very disappointed in the bottle service. I booked in advance. Was not able to get the 'promo' for my birthday even though the advertising says different and when I disagreed I was put in the exact area I requested we wanted to be away from. Also, didn't get our pizza until it was time to leave and I asked about it at 2: 30am.

I love going dancing here for a random night out but I will definitely not be booking any more events here. Unfortunate BC I wanted to go all out for my birthday and buy multiple bottles but opted not to after how I was handled.
01 April 2020 15:29
The one heavy-set, dark, olive, skinned bartender charges her own price seperate from the drink menu price for drinks, which I find insulting because I was not even given the opportunity to tip her, this kinda killed our vibe a bit, but security, all the other bar girls, and the guests were all cool, other than the bartender who refused to serve my girlfriend water. That last part changed my review from 3 stars to 2 stars.
22 January 2020 7:07
Always a great place, weather if it's for food, drinks music or the company of others. This place is always a pleasure to be at, from friendly staff, helpful security and a full dance floor helped from it's amazing DJ's. What else could you ask for. VIP service for all types of parties.already planning my next birthday day here.
Thanks for the memories Dirty Martini Oakville
18 December 2019 9:39
Great place for night out age 25-45, satruday was great old school dj, and separate spanish section for Latin lovers and sexy dancing.
15 December 2019 5:31
The only club close to Burlington and we love it! 2 rooms with different music. Varied age range 25+ If you want to dance till the wee hours, this is our go to in Halton.
08 December 2019 18:29
Lots of fun, the feel of a Toronto nightclub close to home. You can go for dinner and stay for the club. The only concern with that is if you go for dinner first you bypass all security and pat down so there's a potential for the wrong person to bring a weapon in. Also the drinks are extremely watered down.
30 November 2019 3:12
Went to DM last night for Halloween, It was my 3rd time there in the last 6 months. It seems like the DJ’s repeat the same sets of music. I think it’s time to freshen things up a little- they can surely afford it considering how busy the place gets.
19 November 2019 3:18
This place is horrible! The service is beyond disgusting and the prices are way to pricey for what it is. I find it hilarious that they dont accept any negative comments the managment seems to reply to all the negative comments in a rude way with escuses lol it is what it
Is awfull experience the crowd is older 35-45 which is fine but the service is really bad.from out of town def wouldnt go back!
07 November 2019 16:01
Always a blast here! Different rooms with different DJ's and a variety of different types of music. Staff is nice. Will def be going back again!
05 November 2019 15:03
Came here on a Saturday because my friends wanted to come here. I had no expectations and had an okay time but probably would come back. There are 3 bars servicing the entire venue. Two in the main room and one by the smaller room. The 2 rooms play different styles of music. The larger main room is a mix of top40's, retro tribal house latin music with a lot of mash ups/remixes. The smaller circular room is more of a retro hiphop/r&b sound with remixes/mashups too. Drinks aren't weak but are expensive, wine was 9 bucks and simple cocktails were 8 bucks. But it's surprisingly really popular. It gets really really crowded as the night progresses, with line ups outside pass 1am. Staff were pleasant and professional. The venue was quite clean and decorated for the coming holiday which was a nice touch. There are various reserved booths and even tables for seating. Enough washrooms for the venue size. You can even order pizza if you're hungry after dancing. I would say a good club for a very mature crowd. I would say majority of the crowd is 45+. The youngest are probably early 30's and late 20's. I also saw some 60+ too. Overall I didn't really enjoy Dirty Martini's because 1) I didn't like the music (I like more modern music) and 2) the crowd was way too mature for me and 3) it just got too crowded where at times I couldn't even move, so overall the experience was just unpleasant.
21 October 2019 3:17
Had a great time with good friends. The staff including the security were so awesome. Angelina Aquino was our server and she catered to all our needs. Thank you.
16 October 2019 17:58
Had a lot of fun! Great crowd.got dirtier as i drank management should make the signs bigger for washrooms, patio etc. It's like a maze in there.
11 October 2019 3:44
I was there last night for dinner and the food is amazing! I had the seafood platter and steak. Everything tasted great and the calamari was delicious. Our server was great too. I have been here before for the club and although it is not my type of scene it is still fun. I definitely recommend
08 October 2019 11:24
Highly NOT RECOMMENDED! We didn't have any expectations going into the place, as soon as we walked in we were greeted with attitude. The manager is rude and bossy, its like he has never heard of customer service and thinks he can do and say whatever he wants. All I wanted to do was to make sure my vegan buddy gets something to eat at the place but the staff couldn't care less about him being vegan. Definitely won't be going back
04 October 2019 5:18
As we all know music is about the DJ and in my personal opinion he or she is very well update in Latino music
04 October 2019 5:12
Love that this club doesn't have kiddies. Had a really enjoyable bday here. I love that there is a great variety of music.
03 October 2019 12:26
Showed up on friday night looking for accommdations for myself and 5 other friends, as we came in looking for a booth and bottle service. Firstly, I have never got disrespect from a manager like this for simply asking "how many booths do you guys have available for the night? ", manager replied, "why? Do you want all of them? ". In addition to that, after giving us the menu we told him our selection and he then changes his mind saying we only have packages including a meal. Our only problem was that they could not accommodate for our vegan friend stating "we can get you fries with the package". Last time I checked, fries aren't a meal. Besides that i've never been through so much trouble at a restaurant/club just from main door to the front desk. Not considering on going back.
27 September 2019 20:28
Me and my friends went there last night. We were extremely disappointed with one of the bartenders. We ordered drinks three times from her and she short changed us each time. I'm not talking a couple of dollars. First, we gave her the benefit of the doubt, but three times is ridiculous. We also saw other people complaining about their change while we waited for ours. Please be careful as this seems to be something she was doing intentionally. The floors were all sticky due to people drinking on the dance floor. All in all we weren't impressed. Music on one side was hip hop and it was good but we didn't enjoy the remixes the DJ was playing on the other side.
22 September 2019 16:27
It's my 2nd home. I have been going to Dirty Martini for over 10 years. Latin Fridays are great. A great atmosphere with a mature crowd. Free parking and a beautiful patio in the summer.
21 September 2019 8:33
These people are racist. Also. I tipped the bartender $2 for 1 beer and she through the money back at me. Told me " dont bother with this"
19 August 2019 15:15
We frequent there a lot.but had a very bad service on July 6th on my bday. Paid $260 for the package that comes with pizza champagne and and a vodka. All we got was vodka, we asked 2 waitresses where is the rest of the stuff that comes with the package, we were told nothing else comes with our package but vodka. So after we got home 4days later we called. The lady l spoke with was extremely unprofessional and incompetent l have no idea who will put such a rude person in that position if u want your business to grow since there are all other better clubs in Toronto.my husband and I have a business and we care about customers service a lot we will never put such a rude soul like that in charge. This lady will not listen to what we had to say and rather yelling at us and said the pizza was delivered to our table and what do we want her to do WOW! Pizza and champagne was not delivered to our table period. Why will l waste
my precious time to call for a pizza? Just want her to know. And told us if we talk over her she will hung up and she did. But funny thing is that l don't even eat pizza but want her to know what happened so they can avoid anything like that in a future. I was embarrassed in front of my guests who where visiting from New Jersey that's all.good thing we found other places that people have recommended to use. ADIOS!
03 August 2019 3:57
The building is nice, well decorated and modern. The music is good. The clientele however, not so much. Not everyone who goes out for a night of dancing is looking to be taken home. The men there are pushy, and personal space doesn't exist there. But other than that, not bad if you like paying $20.00 for a vodka & soda. I will not be back.
26 July 2019 21:16
Getting charged cover fee even getting out after 5 min, not a good for Clarkson neighbourhood.even Climate was not good as I thought.club is not full filling expectations.
30 June 2019 21:33
Been there couple of times.
Excellent drinks,
You will find a lot of drug addicts trying to grope girls. So be careful
Extremely rude staff at the door so just try to avoid them as even if you ask them something nicely, they ll reply in a very rude and racist way.
Superb music and ambience.
Overall this place is a hit and miss
12 June 2019 22:11
This place wasn't for me. Two dancefloors but the time i visited music was terrible.latin and top 40 songs.: (but good for mature couples to enjoy.
06 June 2019 7:26
Great music for the older crowd. Does get quite busy and overcrowded. Bottle service was great. Highly recommend to bot have to line up at the bar and gives you a "somewhat private" space.
12 May 2019 18:23
I have been going here for a few years and when I went two weeks ago, I was over charged and I was treated poorly. I don’t appreciate when places decide to take a bad night on their customers. When I return I hope my experience is what it was a few years ago.
09 April 2019 4:20
MAKE SURE TO PREDRINK BEFORE YOU GO IN!
My friends are I used to go there often, because we love dancing and the DJ in the small room is amazing, the one star goes to him. The alcohol from the bar is watered down, no matter how much you drink you won’t get a buzz.

Couple weeks ago we decided to get a bottle service; we ordered a Grey Goose bottle, poured a drink for each of us, when we had the first sip we all thought we’re drinking watered down juice. The taste of vodka normally makes me gag so I tried to taste the vodka on its own to test it and it tasted as if I was drinking vodka flavoured water, the bottle was at least 85% water 15% vodka if even. When we called the server and told her she advised she will call the manager, her facial expression revealed that she’s not surprised and this isn’t the first time. When the manager came he argued that we already drank half of the bottle, I told him the other half is still in our glasses he looked a noticed that non of us actually drank it, then he argued that they do not water down the Vodka of course “duhhhh”, I argued that it is watered down so he took us to the back to show us “how they serve a bottle” I asked him to open a new bottle in front of me and have me try a sip, he refused however, after an argument he allowed me a sip and that sip tasted how a vodka should taste. I asked him to serve us that bottle instead he said ok, he sent us back to our booth, sent the server to grab the old bottle, and he brought out the “new” bottle - HALF EMPTY, and placed it on the table. I tasted it again to confirm it’s the new bottle and UNSURPRISINGLY he served us our old watered down bottle again, when I brought it up he literally got angry and yelled at us as if we were kids.

If you’re (the manager) reading this I apologize that you couldn’t fool us and I advice you to consider anger management classes as I do see a potential in you to be a nice human.
03 April 2019 9:38
I must say the manager is an arrogant, ignorant and poor excuse for a manager. I spoke to a few of the staff and they all agreed about his behaviour. This person should not be working in the hospitality industry.
I will never return to this establishment and highly recommend others to stay away and spend your money in professional establishment run by a professional manager! Absolutely disgusting! Stay away.
01 April 2019 22:01
Love this place. The crowd is mature, fun and dancing all night long. The music is awesome as they have 2 different areas playing different music simultaneously, which is quite unique. The one side has a lot of EDM and 90s dance music, everyone dances to it and sings along. The other side is Rap/ hip hop also great tunes! We switch up many times and always have a good time.
22 March 2019 18:19
Older crowd 35-50 perhaps, expensive drinks but still a good vibe. Two floors that plays different music throughout the night.
19 March 2019 9:58
"Good place to go for food and drinks. Security staff are awesome. DJ set list always the same though and that is the number one complaint amongst people I go with. Some of the servers are amazing and make the experience fun. They also try and keep the riff-raff out and treat their regulars nicely. One of my favorite spots. "
