Saigon Passion III

Walked in this place around 12am last night with no one but the employees inside. Did not even sit down yet and I had the hostess girls approaching me asking to buy them drinks. Mind you, none of these women were even good looking! Ended up walking out before even ordering anything. Stay away from this place

Girls here a ripoff. If you want to be milk for your money then this is the place to be. If not, you better off going to Femenu or Roxza.

Cool place been there for the last 15 years, I see the owner and he takes care he is not into childish stuff to me this place is where everything is done… EVERYTHING, now if you are a real man you know what to do, and that’s not whooping and hollering, that will never get you to meet the entertainment, maybe some of cheap people should learn the educates of these kind of bars, you buy owner a couple drinks and the mama san. That might get you a special pass.
Good luck

It’s so obvious they put water in their alcohol bottles to stretch their liquor. This whiskey sour tastes like water. The place next door didn’t have mixers at all so me and my cousin came here. The girls are chubby or old dancing and the drinks fucking suck. This place is Terrible. Never coming again.

Nm meant to review saigons never been to this place

This was the first stop on the July 2014 No Cover Tour of Honolulu inspired by James G. in honor of my friend’s upcoming nuptials. We arrived around 9:00PM, and it appeared that the place was empty. We were extremely disappointed because we had rented the Oahu Partybus, and this tour was on a timetable.
As we turned around, we were stopped by a mama-​san and ushered into an adjacent door. There was another stage! I was genuinely surprised at how young and attractive the two girls were. There is a one (1) drink minimum.
The inside is about as clean as one would expect from the exterior. There is an amazing painted mirror over that bar with an asian woman straddling a ferocious tiger. I want it so bad. My friend asked the bartender (a chubby fanboy looking asian dude who hadn’t shaved in a few days) if the mirror was for sale, half jokingly. I actually wanted the mirror, and I would put it in a place of prominence. The bartender was kind of an ass, and replied in a very serious tone, «No. It’s Not.» We quickly curtailed any further discussion with this dood.
I was herding cats on this night, and the new guy got caught by one of the girls. Every morning a lion wakes up and knows that it must be faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve. This was no different. I was very impressed at her ability to survey the situation so quickly. I think he told me he paid $ 40.00 for the private time in the booth.
We had our drinks and stayed for a couple of songs, but we had to keep moving.
(I am not sure why there are food pictures for this business.)

The Unilocal picture is very misleading, so with that being said…
Seriously wasn’t here for phở and I probably wouldn’t eat phở here anyways… Been here only a handful of times since this seems to be ‘the last house on the block’ kinda weekend late night drinking/​shinangins. Place got a creepy vibe… Old, unenthusiastic strippers and expensive drinks!!! I feel bad for friend cause he got ripped off 2 beers and 2 shots should not equal over $ 40 and I should know I’m a bartender!!!
The only reason this place gets 2 stars is it’s open late and serves alcohol and the sad part about it? I will most likely be back.

Visited on a Monday night, June 18, 2012 (sorry, long overdue review!)
Last night on the town, and we had to check out some more strip clubs in the name of Unilocal!
However, this was a huge miss. There weren’t even any girls on the stage, which leads me to believe…
Don’t go here if you’re looking for some stage entertainment.

I love the girls and the bouncers here!
I really love the local girls that work here, I don’t know if its just me but the local girls here are more talkative, open, social, and more friendlier than the vietnamese girls here. Its pretty spacious here and there are two rooms, you have to enter the first room in order to get to the second. The bouncers at the enterance know me well and so do the local girls.
I met a few nice vietnamese girls. One of the vietnamese girls stayed with me in the bathroom while I went to pee! She was really nice and kept talking to me and saying I was pretty and all, but I was tipsy so I didn’t mind.
The second room is more dim and the atmosphere is more laid back than the first room. I rate it a 3 because the mama san asked me to leave about 1 ½ hours after because of something totally UNRELATED TO BUSINESS. I was a customer in her establishment and she asked me to leave because of a personal bias.
The girls and the bouncers were real apologetic about it and they wished I could of stayed but whatever mama says goes because she owns the place.
Would I go back? Maybe. If she kicks me out again I’ll threaten to sue! (Just kidding, really though it was an act of discrimination)

This place has great potential but the vietnamese ladies running this place are too foolish to understand the concept of customer service or being professional to dancers. I have danced many plan

I go with my bosses of a sushi restaurant I work at, after work. We stop by because all the women that work in this establishment eat at our restaurant throughout the week! So when we go to visit and have a drink, we order food from the menu.
I must say the salt n pepper shrimp, kalbi, and seafood noodle soup are all my favorite dishes to eat! I love it! Although the name Saigon Passion scares away the normal close minded crowd, I always give places the benefit of the doubt. Nobody bothers us as we sit on the bar and eat. The bartendresses know us because we eat there at least twice a week! They are so sweet always buying us drinks and refilling my ice water constantly.
Overall great customer service, dim light setting for those other patrons sitting in the establishment. Great staff and the door men are awesome! They call me Miss Red for my red hair. hahaha!
Will dine here in the near future!

Great spot had a blast

I will never return to this place. and here is why.
I came here Friday morning around 3:45AM, after a long night of partying for my 21^st birthday. being drunk and not realizing the time they close we walk up and the bouncer asks for my ID…
I should have known at this post the best thing would be to just walk away… we got in a good 30 second argument over what day it was. I’m pretty sure I’ve been counting down for this day for the last 365 days, I KNOW when my birthday is. anyway, so finally he asks someone what day it was and they tell him and reluctantly he lets us in.
So we go in, we sit down at a booth because the one stripper that was working was up on some guys lap… not entertaining for me… SORRY and then the guy comes up to us, asks what we want to drink… we say we’re good. and he tells us its a 1 drink minimum. So we’re like alright, we order 2 jack/​coke. He brings us our drinks and not more than 45 seconds later, the music stops.
Seriously? We paid 18 dollars for 2 drinks… what a waste of time. I’m never returning and I suggest if you’re reading this. you dont even go. There are way better clubs… with better looking women.

Saigon Passion III, what happened to I and II I do not know. We stopped here as the last place on our «No Cover Tour.» Just a reminder a «No Cover Tour» consists of going to strip clubs with no cover charge and buying at least a drink and sitting in the hotseat (near the pole) for at least a song/​round.
We got to Saigon Passion III after going to Misty 1, Club Red Rose, and Sandy’s Place. We were pretty soused when we got here and pretty traumatized from the 3 previous strip clubs we were at. Got into Saigon Passion III and it reminded me of the strip clubs back home. This was very eerie.
I noticed that they gave out the ghetto ash trays here aka styrofoam bowl with a wet napkin inside. Yeah this place was really reminding me of strips back in Guam now. You can straight up smoke inside this joint. I don’t smoke so I don’t really care. A lot of my friends smoke cigarettes so I don’t mind just as long as they aren’t blowing it in my face.
This place was definitely better than the 3 previous strip clubs we were at but it is still pretty ghetto. We got our beers it seemed like music here was blasting like crazy. They had a decent DJ he might be still a novice but was playing alright stuff when we were there.
We got our drinks and things it started. We go and sit down at the hotseat Some lady sits next to my friend Herald and puts her leg on top of his. We automatically think that she has to be a «buy me drinky» you know these women that work for strip clubs (sometimes strippers) that will go up to you and ask you to buy them a $ 20 non alcoholic drink and keep you company while they drink this drink. Well, we thought this girl was but turned out she wasn’t. She was sitting with my friend Herald and taking his dollars and getting lap dances for herself, which was fine with us. She actually started going kind of crazy throwing dollar bills everywhere and groping my friend. Then the «mama-​san» came up to us and got our order for more drinks. Then mama-​san looked at the girl in a weird way and we were like does she not work here? Mama-​san said no that lady don’t even work here. The lady left and we were left cracking up the rest of the time there because some lady came and got lap dances and totally groped my friend Herald and it turns out she didn’t even work there and she was there by herself… haha.

not the best place
seedy and the girls arent the best.
there is a reason why its so dark in there

I used to go here for the food. Seriously. But apparently, the kitchen is being renovated. Now I come here to talk story with the bartender. And I always hear that it’ll be more crowded or there will be more girls later in the night/​early morning. But I’ve never stuck around long enough to experience it.

it’s slow in the beginning of the night, the party just getting started after 2am on weekends, plus some other girls from other clubs comes to work at Saigon

place was dead when we got here around 10pm on a weekday. supposedly it gets much more crowded later in the wee hours. as for the girls, well… yeah. haha.
what’s funny about this place is that it is located right next door to a youth ballet school. oh, the irony!

I’m getting too old, so I don’t to this anymore, but Saigon Passion is where I went after Rock-​za and Femme-​Nu closed.
There is fun to be had there.
For a while, I was seeing a blonde who sold clothing to the dancers. I’ve forgotten her name too.
