Inferno Detroit

Great staff, great entertainers, awesome drink prices. Highly recommend Thursdays if you are on a budget but still wanna go out. The owners are very hands on and open to ideas.

I’ve been to this bar when it was Stilettos and I can say that there has been major improvements all around. It was a great place before but now it’s much better. The main bar area before had a drop ceiling you could practically touch, now it’s been opened up, and the dance floor area has new lights.
Drink prices are very reasonable and all the shows I’ve attending were all very entertaining.
Overall you can tell the the owners and workers care about making this a great place for everyone.

Was hoping for better. Place was messy and the bartender with the glasses was rude. Was clear he was favoring the younger patrons. Probably won’t be back.

First time ever so I can’t compare it to Stilettos. I expected with the ownership change the interior would feel new or redone, but it felt like it was likely unchanged. We got there before 9:00 but were still charged cover despite the website saying Thu-​Sun for happy hour 4 – 9 there is no cover (put a disclaimer on that or take it down!).
I think the owners’ intentions are good; however it was clear there were a lot of inexperienced people working in basically all the positions. Waitstaff was not clearly distinguishable nor were they attentive or on point. The bartender didn’t know how to make a basic shot our group requested and the test tube shot gal a) did not know what flavors she had or what was in them and b) could not count well /​make change on the fly (we ended up with a shot for free which I doubt the owners want happening). The drinks were not boozy enough and a margarita was served in a martini glass.
We did get asked a couple times if we were enjoying our evening (good) but I saw more socializing than running a business (bad if they want to make money).
We loved Bentley James and most of the performances.
