Cavo

It's a little strange to write a review for a nightclub, because people rate it by their experiences with other individuals, which really isn't the fault of the club (mostly). I'll try to separate experience from the actual club service up front: Cavo itself: 4/5 My experience: 2/5 Arrived there around midnight on a Friday evening and waited about 25 minutes in a line of 40+ people to enter. There is a VIP line, not sure how that works. Bouncers will check your ID and bags, but there's surprisingly no cover. Entering Cavo, you're greeted by a massive crowd standing nearly shoulder to shoulder and Spanish music playing. You can push through the crowd to an intermediate coat check hallway (costs $2 to check a coat). Here I will give Cavo -1 because when we arrived, the coat check line was long and by the time we waited, it was full and we were told we couldn't check a coat, despite others waiting to get theirs out. The line to get a coat out of the coat check was 10+ minutes long when we arrived and on the way out near closing, was easily 15+ minutes long if not longer. Wouldn't recommend checking a coat for that wait alone. The second room past the coat check is a seating area and larger standing bar. A late night menu is available with food between $7-$10, but I didn't see anyone taking orders or getting orders. Cocktails are around $14 (?) and I didn't catch how much a beer was, but I'd guess $10ish. The last room is where most of the dancing happens with American dance remixes (think Blinding Lights, Katy Perry, etc.) and is by far the worst experience. There is a VIP area up front and two cages where dancers will occasionally go. Tons of lights and even confetti drops on big music drops. But there are too many people that shove through the crowd. Nothing Cavo could control unless they limit entry more, but it's a poor experience to try dancing in when you get stepped on or shoved every minute. Other clubs I've been to have done better at managing the crowd. +No cover +Decently fast bar service +Coat check $2 but -Coat check gets full and long wait on busy nights -Overcrowded (expected for a club with no cover) Can't comment on drink quality because I didn't order a cocktail.

Cavo is my favorite club! It is so much fun every time I go! The ambiance is superb! There are three large rooms, and each has its own separate bar! The music is awesome and upbeat, and the drinks are delicious! The owner and manager are such great people! They are always welcoming, fun, and super respectful! They really know how to run the club! My bartender makes the best drinks and can handle a lot at once! He is awesome and can make drinks very fast and gives great recommendations! The security detail team is by far the best yet! They always ensure we are safe, and I greatly appreciate it! Favorite club and I recommend that everyone goes and checks it out!

I loved it when I first walked in because the club had their own separate sides when you first walked in the Latinos were on the right they had their DJ their own dance floor and Bar VIP sections everywhere and then when you went towards the back they had another bar and then you made a right at the end and went all the way to the back and that was the club club and I love the club everything was 100% Good Vibes I got a macarona from the Latino side and it was amazing I went to the back and I got elbowed in the head by a girl couldn't even say she was sorry that's why I only gave up two or three stars but it was amazing I want to go back again soon I wasn't able to really do what I wanted to do because I ran out of money I wanted to get a VIP section it was only just me I wanted more people there with me so they can enjoy that moment but I love the club

My friends and I went to celebrate a birthday and it was a blast! Great atmosphere and music. We also happened to be a part of a hype crowd when we arrived; I breakdanced on the floor and had an awesome time seeing some of the talented dancers Pittsburgh had to offer. This place is our favorite and we’ll definitely be back for other occasions.

What an experience deffinatly will co.e back again
