There's no way to describe the visual presentation and interior design of Tentation other than to simply deem it amazing. From the 48-foot long waterfall that spans the onyx bar to the cool primary hues that bathe the entire space, this minimal South Beach-esque club ranks up there as one of Orange County's hippest nightclubs in the last 10 years. Of course, when a club is as extravagantly designed as Tentation, you can expect a few things: The cover charge is going to be steep -- expect to drop $20 a head here. Drinks: Tentation bartenders mix 'em strong, but you're going to pay the price -- literally. Martinis average $12 and if you have to ask the prices of the bar's champagne list, you probably can't afford to buy a bottle. As for music, listen for surefire hip-hop and dance hits -- the house DJs play it safe, but it also ensures that the dance floor is always going to be hot and hoppin'. The clientele is almost all from south Orange County, well dressed and in their late 30s to early 40s. The crowd isn't snobby like one might think, but if you're low on cash, Tentation might not be your temptation.

I will not go back
By Flrsnoemi06 on 10/21/2008
RIP OFF: first thing: If your going to be in the VIP area and are ordering bottle service..BEWARE!!! The waitress will let ANYONE in your group order extra bottles without confirming withthe person who is actually going to pay the bill!! netherless said..you will walk of with hundreds or possibly thousand dollars extra to pay because of idiot waitresses that decided they are going to take anyone's order...I mean what do they care right? As long as they make the money. The VIP lounge is not as great as they make it seem on there website. There are no candles...therefore no light which makes you not know how much drink your pouring in your glass. SMELLS HORRIBLE The dancefloor is extremely small and crowded! equallying the entire place smelling like ass and nuts!! eww gross!!! OVERPRICED I would never go back! everything is overpriced. The food sucks ass . I would rather have my birthday at the Shark Club for that. DJ SUCKED! Music is hip hop and trance which was alright untill the DJ kept changing the damn songs only 30 seconds into it! I mean common your started to get into the beat of a song and there it goes off to another song...complete mess! UPSCALE...NOT!! This club claims to be upscale...umm no I dont think so! your better off going to sutra loung . My opinion...take your rich ass (or poor ass) and go somewere else!!!

Top of the Line! LOVE IT!!!
By scorpios57 on 07/01/2007
This is my all time favorite club! I've met so many great people there, mostly upper class, professional and lots of really good looking men. I like the fact that there are actually men my age category in their 30's, 40's, and upward, who still like to party, dance and have FUN! Love the Europian influence and the cultural mix of people from all around the world that come to Tentations. Met my current boyfriend there ... he's from Italy and awesome.

Fun in OC...

I usually go to clubs in Hollywood but I started dating this guy in OC. This place is very small for a dance club but I always have a lot of fun here! The age range varies from mid 20's to 50's and usually upper class!!!

Waste of my time and money
By letshaveanother on 06/05/2006
Got there early to get a barstool but at 9:15 it still wasn't open. The door guy said to have a drink next door and come back in 15 minutes. Went and had a drink and went back in 25 minutes. Guess what..still not open. They didn't open until close to 10 so I paid my 20 bucks and guess what...no barstools like the website shows. So I order a Bacardi and coke (8 bucks...the going price) but the code is flat and it makes the drink taste nasty. It must be a late crowd but I was killing time by watching Scarface on the monitors but when it got a little slow I started listening to the music. Some kind of calypso house junk. Well, I saw all I needed to. Went to Sutra.
