Editorial Review for Sutra Lounge – by Andrea Rademan
In Short
A massive Buddha presides over 10,000 square feet of candlelit gold, ebony and crimson dining spaces, VIP nooks and a Moroccan-style patio. State-of-the-art lighting and sound systems, and top DJs spinning eclectic music, ensure heavy traffic on the dance floor. Three bars offer premium beverages, flavored martinis and custom cocktails but they do not outshine French chef Stephane Beaucamp's eclectic grazing menu (lobster scallion shooters, shrimp lollipops, black chocolate goddess cake), meant for sharing.

Sutra Lounge is definitely one of the classiest and liveliest nightclubs in OC. Music is great and the customers reflect a exciting sense of fashion by their choice of outfits. However, everybody's way too snobby unless you are on steroids, covered with tattoos, and walk around with a $1000 cash in your hand to show off. But that's the saddest and ultimate truth about the OC anyway. The other main issue is that the place actually is a little bit small. Dance floor to be exact. My overall perspective on this club is very pleasing and it deserves a solid 4-star. Sutra is a great choice for both Fridays and Saturdays.

This was my first time at Sutra on a Thursday night.......our group consisted of 5 girls and 2 guys.....and we know a promoter so we got to pass up the long line and waltzed right in. My first impression was that it was a lot smaller than I expected but it seemed ok, boy was i wrong. So.....i cant complain about the drinks.....because they are pretty strong.......but like I said it doesnt hurt to know a promoter. Anyway the place is extremely cramped......and the dancefloor is tiny. Not to mention the music and the people........geez.......i felt like i had just flashed back to highschool. Honestly I really cant imagine what this place looks like with the lights on........because something smelled horrible. We saw Paris Hilton and Benji Madden.......and underager Ryan Scheckler........but since when is that a reason to go to a crappy club. After two drinks we ended up going across the street to a dive bar.....which was surprisingly a better experience. If you want to have an amazing clubbing experience make the trek up to LA.....
Pros: decent drinks
Cons: everything else......
