text: Typically I would have written a great review for this place. On Saturday night however I was extremely disappointed. I've been to Mabel's almost every weekend for the past few months and it was not until this weekend that I was let down.\n\nA group of friends and I were excited to enter as we love the ambiance, decor, drinks, and general crowd at Mabel's. It all went bad when we came up to the doorman and all proceeded to take out our ID's. He completely ignored us and I watched as a crowd of about 20 Affliction-wearing 50 year old's walked out and left with what looked like hookers. I had to tap on the doorman's back to get his attention and he turned to me and said \"Can I help you with something?\" We were all taken aback by his brashness but said that we were just interested in coming in. He then told us that Mabel's just started a policy on Fri and Sat nights of members and VIP's only. We were turned away and all left with a very bad taste in our mouths.\n\nWith so many different bars, clubs and lounges in the area you would think that this establishment would be smarter than that. We would have spent a good amount of $ there but instead were told we couldn't even get in because we were not 'members.' Total bull. I loved the place up until this encounter and won't be going back any time soon.
