I got invited here for my friends birthday that happened to be on NYE so she paid a price to have a table that could accommodate a large crowd I even called day of to confirm! We arrived and not only did she pay a large price for the table but everyone had to pay $45 at the door just for them to only give half are table the VIP bracelets they paid for and when the rest of us asked for are money back they told us quote “we don’t do refunds” and when I asked to speak with management are group of 12 people that all paid $45 each to get in got kicked out of the club! I have worked in the hospitality industry for years including bars restaurants and even clubs this is outrageous! Total price for my group of people to get in was $540.00 and that doesn’t count the drinks we got while we were waiting! I will never go back to trio ever again! Never have been sober and kicked out of an establishment before I asked to speak with management at Trio Nightclub!

Im familiar with this club since they opened and it has transformed with experience and seems to only get better depending on what you are looking for. It appears in efforts not to be the same all the time and as a very young club it has morphed and will continue to change over the years to keep it fresh. As far as I know, it is the largest club in PDX and they aim to please. Karaoke in one room and the line is usually short as most of the folks in the room are spectators. Latin music in the White room; labeled that merely because of the decor... The main room changes nightly... call ahead. Its always dance but the music style changes. Sometimes they have live music and they are absolutely set up for it. Prices are a little higher than average but you get what you pay for!If its not your scene one night, try a different night! Across the street from another fantastic venue, The Doug Fir

RIP Trio, you had a nice long run. Many aren’t sure how you survived so long with your bad business practices,, but finally, the OLCC has decided your fate. 2012-2019.

Has a separate karaoke section, some slot machines, a section for Hispanic music which is great to have in one club. Love the decor, the people are nice, long line but a nice venue to get into. Definitely a place id take friends to and would be able to be all together. Not many booths or tables considering the amount of people that go there. Good Dj. Parking is horrible though. Expect to walk a distance.

Love this club. I always have a good time when I go here and have no problem bringing a large group of friends with me. The owner is extremely nice and is very good at making you feel welcome and satisfied. His staff gives great customer service.

Fun place for a private event. Do not think I would want to go on a regular weekend however as the club scene no longer appeals to me though. Bartender was nice and they will make you just about whatever you order.

$25 for a cover would be fine if security wasn’t tighter than the airport where my face and license had to be scanned. Not to mention when I ordered two drinks off the menu, the bartender had to keep looking at the menu to remember what was in it. Then took forever to make it as she had to pour liquor from one side of the bar and then walk it to slowly in jigger to the cups of ice she placed in front of me. Then she didn’t even mix them..which was disgusting. To top it all off, the restrooms were disguising and I heard it was worse in the women’s restroom since they had no toilet paper and one of the stalls were broken and there were used toilet seat covers on the floor. Paying to get into this club ain’t worth it, spend your money elsewhere

Portland has so much more to offer... This place is not worth a visit.

Review №12

I am shocked this place still has its doors open. I went there on a Saturday, and it was a ghost town. I went through more intense security than a military check point in Iraq, and had to pay $10 to get in just to pay $15 for a Redbull vodka. Ownership of this place clearly has no clue of how to make this place busy, what a shame it’s beautiful venue!

Good Karaoke room. There is also the other 2 rooms playing different types of music, usually hip-pop or Latin. Recent changes have slightly reduce the dance floor area to accommodate VIP tables.

Review №14

Best club in Portland!!! The main venue is dance hip-hop and it was just the right amount of people; crowded but you could shake it just fine without being elbowed. I would say about 100 people in the hop hop stage. There is another room sectioned off with Latino dance music and that was packed as well; about 70-80 people. I went on a Saturday night and it was so much fun!!!! The security was great so you also felt safe while partying. The drinks were average and you had to wait too long but the atmosphere definitely made up for it. There is also a little tiny room for karioke that can hold about 30 people. Each room is structured so the sounds is contained and the different genres dont bleed into each other and the volume is perfect; not to load where you cant even feel your own heartbeat but load enough to get your blood flowing.

Great place for young people (21-30) not for old dudes! Or people that are not outgoing. Amazing place to dance and let lose and forget the stress.

Review №17

First of all, charging a cover at 9pm and then having the nerve to not even have a DJ until almost midnight?! The same music was playing for hours. Then the drinks cost 10.50$ but have no alcohol in them. There could not have been more than half a shot per drink because I could feel nothing after 2 drinks, and Im a light weight. The place is pretty though... just not worth the money spent

The bartender on the third room tried to play me, I paid 20$ & I saw her dumba**switch it with a 1$ bill & said I gave her a 1$ bill. I ignored her took the drink without any change & sat down in one of the pods & she even came over & took the drink away saying to pay the right amount. She tried to be slick but ended up looking like a dumb ho perra.

Horrible horrible waste of money place. Majorly overpriced. Barely any alcohol in drinks. They added $1.75 to every drink I ordered for a gratuity and refused to remove it. There was nobody in there. The people that did come and go were weirdos. And then when we left this ghost town of a lame, overpriced, weak drinks place, there was a line of people waiting to get in! When there was nobody in the club!! do yourself a favor and go somewhere else!

Review №23

This used to be the old Galaxy restaurant and bar. I loved that place. The food was out of this world and the service and atmosphere were the BEST! Now, however, I am sad to say, I will never go back. The Trio Club has changed it and not in a good way. The food was substandard (menu completely changed, my beef and broccoli was so sweet it ruined the dish), the service was horrible (had to ask for the rice and had to leave my table and go to a completely different room to get a refill on my drink), the atmosphere is loud and vibrant (very pleasing to the eye), but all in all, I was very disappointed in the place as a whole. If you used to LOVE the Galaxy, you will hate this place. Again, I will never go back.

Review №25

This place is so gross. Bathrooms were disgusting, toilet paper with blood on the floor everywhere. It smelled in the entire club. There was beer cans and beer thrown all over the floor and dance floor so the floor was super slippery and wet.. I would literally feel like I was dancing in puddles. Cover was super overpriced and it was EXTREMELY packed and hot in there. Music was mainly corridos and cumbia. Worst club experience Ive had. Seriously not worth your time or money. No stars is what this disgusting place deserves.

Nice atmosphere the place it is decorated pretty cool but crazy expensive if you want to pay $10 to get in the door and then $10 for a mixed drink then this is the place for you. My friend got bottle service to the tune of $260 and they brought out a offbrand vodka obviously cheap. Definitely not worth the money

Review №33

The place is ok overall but if you go, do not open a tab. The bartender swore I had bought for drinks last night (which is not true). I typically trust bartenders to keep their patron tabs in order but he insisted I ordered the same two drinks I originally ordered and then went back to get the same two drinks again one at a time. I only got two, one at a time. But I rather just pay the tab than argue with the bartender. There is no point.

It was the worst place I have ever been at in Portland they over exaggerate with the price $25 ridiculous is not even a fancy place. I really want to give this place a big fat 0. Oh the owner of this place ghetto person dressing in a ghetto expensive outfit that obviously afforded with the price they charge at the entrance really unprofessional and do not explain himself at all. Worst place do not go.

My best friend had his birthday party here this last Friday. He had previously come to the club to check it out and see if it would work for his party. He text me the next day saying that the drinks and food were so great and he couldnt wait to celebrate there. He had talked with the owner to set up when the party would be and what not. When we arrived my best friend told the two women outside who he was and that there is a room waiting for us. These two woman had no idea who we were and didnt have a name written down. The guy that stamps your wrist came over and asked what was wrong and if we had paid the cover yet. He treated us like we were scum. One of the girls finally went and got the owner. Then she came back and told us to go a head inside. We took over a room closest to the door and waited for our the waitresses that had said they would be helping us. It took 30 minutes to get someone to help us. Finally my friend went out and ordered from the bartender who, he said, had been very helpful and friendly the last time he was there and was this time as well. He started a tab out with the bartender and we got some drinks. About 10 minutes after that 2 waitresses came in to help us. We were then told that one waitress was brand new and the other waitress would be helping us as well. Not a good start when you have a party of 30 people coming. We finally got to order after asking a couple different people to come in and take our order as other guest started to arrive. The food took about an hour to get out to us and it tasted horrible. One of my friend got chicken alfredo and she said the pasta was completely cold. The rest of us got burgers that tasted funny. My best friend said the food was so much better last time. After that people started drinking and having a good time. Around 1am we decided to leave. We started paying our tabs. The waitress came in and told me that sense we had brought in a cake that there was a $15 charge for it. I told her we tried to pay that in the beginning but no one wanted to take it; plus after all the crap in the beginning of the evening I thought she should take it off the tab. She just shrugged at me. So I asked her to put it on my tab so my best friend didnt have to pay for it. I didnt want him more upset with how this night was going. He then got his tab but they didnt bring in his ID and debit card that he had left with the bartender. He asked the waitress to go out and pick it up for him when she brought back his tab. We got our tabs paid for and left. The next morning my best friend cant find his ID or debit card. The waitress didnt bring it over to him. I was so disappointed with this place. I cant believe the level of service that we got. It was awful.

Although it feels more LA than PDX, Trio is a blast. There are two dance areas: one with pop dance tunes and one with salsa/bachata music. Theres free karaoke every day (!!!) and if you go on a weeknight youll have the place to yourself, with no cover! Plus the bartender that works the weekends is one of the best in the region. Dont be fooled by reviewers complaining about a $5 cover or $6 drinks (hello??)..

Good setup overall but come on waaaaay too expensive. Cover fee is $15 for men and $10 for women. Ended up paying $35 for me and the wife,. Drinks are ridiculously overpriced, I think one Corona cost $8. Change the prices

I’ve been to Trio a few times. Love the music selection and the dance floor isn’t overwhelmingly packed. They close at 3:30am but stop serving drinks at 2am, that is pretty annoying if your want to stay out longer. There is also no re-entry.

Went here to watch the Mayweather vs. Pacquiao fight. $25 advertised ticket prices went up to $30 at the door. Buffet dinner was also advertised to be available between 6-8pm. Their idea of a buffet was bringing out one or two trays of food enough for 8-10 people every half hour. Safe to say there were many hungry people at the event. Wouldve been better if they didnt even bother to advertise the buffet. Drinks were also very slow to reach the tables. I guess that helped keep our overall bill down.

Review №47

The security is absolutely absurd, they scan your face with a camera and pull up your drivers license photo and criminal history to determine if youre allowed in the club or not. On top of that, theres a $10 cover fee for everyone including ladies. The ATM charges $4 to pull out money as well..And every bartender that I have come in contact with has been extremely rude and copped an attitude with me. My friend ordered a long island and they never even poured the alcohol in it, when we tried to talk to a male bar tender about it and he said that we could only talk to the woman who made it and she was so rude about it and wouldnt remake the drink even though only a few sips were taken out of it. The music is garbage to top it all off. Definitely not returning here.. I would recommend Century Bar down the street.

Time and time again, Ill be at some of the usual bars in Portlands own Burnside strip. Romtoms with its great outdoor area, Plan-B with its grunge, and Doug Fir with its firepit and amazing music stage. Down the street I see this giant purple & pink blob that just never sat right.One day we all decided we were going to finally check this monster out, and boy were we absolutely on spot with our assumptions.Our friend knew the KJ and said we could probably work something out to get in for free and avoid the $10 cover. We waited outside in the rain, all huddled under the one mini-tent they had for what seemed like 30 minutes. There was nobody in line, and and the place was not that crowded. What was the deal? It turns out while the KJ was aware of our group arriving, the door person was not allowing it without all of us paying their steep cover. Screw it, we all agreed!Halfway down the street one of the promoters came out and offered us to get in. He knew that our business was appreciated and respected that we were here to have a good time, not to start a gang war or to come in and dry hump all of the ladies, we had a pretty even ratio. After a nice pat down, ID check, and photo taken of us (what is this for?) we were all in.The place is right out of Vegas. Bright, flashy screens playing random MilkDrop-esque patterns, heavy bass that prevents you with conversing with anyone, high fashion and dress codes. I went to the bar. I had a few drinks already but wanted a few more to get my Karaoke-level buzz going. A Modelo I ask for... $5.75. Okay this is high scale pricing... I get it. My second beer, a little cheaper this time... $5.25.What did I order? A Bud Lite.$5.25 for a Bud Light bottle. I stopped my drinking right there.We retreated into the karaoke room which, actually was not too bad. The KJs were on spot and we all got a turn to sing through the night. If you could somehow manage to direct-feed me into the karaoke room here and avoid the entire Vegas Club experience, I may come back.
