This is the worst Latin Club I have ever been too. - LOTS OF GUYS hanging around that are wound up and are easily irritated. (Teenagers apparently) - NOT a dance club. This is more of a Latin grind club (way too many people for any actual dancing) - You will be charged additional TIPs without your authorization. - If you're a man, you will be skipped when ordering drinks Please check your statements after going here. I was charged tips despite not approving any tips. If you're a guy looking to get a drink, prepare to wait and be skipped several times. A few of my friends and I came to this place and had the same experience at the different bars inside. After finally making it up to the front, the bartenders will look at the people DIRECTLY BEHIND YOU and serve 3-5 others before taking your order. Once they do take your order, they will then grab several other drinks before getting yours. I have been to a few bars in my life, and I understand when someone is busy and when someone is acting intentionally. Then they have the audacity to charge unauthorized TIPS to your account without approval. I understand why a lot of the guys in this place are easily irritated. There are better places in town, do yourself a favor and take your friends elsewhere and actually have FUN. *Please note: My group and I are in our late 20's. We all, unfortunately, had the same experience. Response to owner: You do not know what is going on in your club. Check out other review sites and you will see that these unauthorized charges are common place.

I didn't like this place. First of all, it's in an area surrounded by FREE bars on dirty sixth so the $10 cover charge is stupid. I don't mind paying if the place is good but this place isn't cover charge worthy. It's not very "latin". There's mainly Mexican music and people (I know I know, it's Texas). I felt like I was at a party in a third world country. Don't get all whiny and assume I'm racist if you're reading this. I'm Hispanic too and I have been to parties in a third world country. It had that vibe to it. And the last thing that annoyed me was the $10 minimum on credit cards. What's the purpose? I like to order my beer and close the tab out in case I wanna leave after my beer. Every other bar I've been to in Austin let's me pay for just one beer with my card. If my review sounds like a good time to you, you might love this place. It's not for everyone and it's definitely not for me. If you don't speak English, this is the place for you.

I came here two years ago and will try this place one more time to see if it has improved after COVID restrictions in May. The last time I came here the music was a very good mixture of Latin hip hop to salsa, to bachata and other Latin favorites to dance to. Once in awhile American dance music would be played too. So it could have been fun. But the bartenders were playing favorites with their friends. That was a problem when you had to stand in line forever for one drink. Security does a good job without making you feel unwelcome. But there are lots of young male singles here so if you are on a date with a female "stay alert". Also it gets very crowded so its very hard to actually dance without bumping into someone.

  • Giselle Medrano

Last night me and my husband were at the club, and someone tried to hit my husband from behind just to realize they stole my belongings. My cell - ID - and debit card out of his pocket. The security came around and they didn't even let us explain what was happening before kicking us out because he thought we were "going to fight" When I informed him, he didn't even seem to care of what was happening. I am never returning here. If this is the type of people you have working for you it's a disappointment. I would've been able to get to the person who stole my personal belongings if the security person would've simply let us explain first and go after him.

  • Derek Gotay

I've been to Cielo before the pandemic and recently went. It's the same Cielo as far as the crowd, really good! And It gets packed. I would've loved more variety in terms of music like more merengue, salsa, bachata but as packed as it gets it's hard to dance anything else than perreo reggaeton . Now... The mixed drinks ‍♂️ HORRIBLE CIELO YOUR BARTENDERS NEED MORE TRAINING!!! The drinks were not correctly made. They didn't know the ingredients for certain drinks yet they made them anyway. The drinks had double the alcohol it should have. If John from Bar Rescue were here he would tear y'all up!

  • Hugo Anibal

El antro se llena demaciado los vienes que es casi imposible bailar. El 70% de la musica es reggaeton, el otro 30% es una combinacion de cumbia, bachata, merengue y salsa. El d.j. hace una buena mescla de canciones viejitas de Salsa y bachata pero lo malo es que tocan muy poca de esa musica. La mayoria de las personas que asisten tiene entre 18 a 25 años. La localidad esta en un costado de la calle 6th street. Si te gusta bailar salsa y bachata en una pista con un poco de espacio quizas esta no sea tu mejor eleccion.

  • irma navarrete

De lo peor sacan a uno de las mesas para dárselas a los q pagan x una botella del valor $200.00, la cual no se me hace justo x q al igual q ellos estamos consumiendo probablemente mas de los q compran la mendiga botella ,el mánager muyyy patético y arrogante, el Dj estuvo bien ,comparte con el publico pero la variedad de música no fue la mejor demasiado reggaetón. Y no hay control de capacidad de gente x eso el lugar está demasiado lleno haaaa !! Y la alfombra q tienen como chicle de pegajosa q horrorrrr!!

  • Savannah S.

Good choice of music. Mostly reggaeton. Lot of creeps here though. My friend and I went twice and it was a night and day experience. Friday was better than Saturday night. Not sure if that's a regular thing. On the Saturday night there was a $10 cover charge, but it might be because we came in later. The place was VERY hot though. They need to get some better airflow in there because of how packed it gets. My friend and I wanted to leave just from how sweaty we were getting.

  • Diego Ruiz Osorio

If you're planning on going out tonight, you might want to put this place as your Z plan, or just not go out. The place it's quite small, dirty and with terrible service. I paid $15 for the cover, and once inside I realized service was poor and so was the maintenance of the place, and last but definitely not least, the whole environment was really mean. I will not go there again and any other place in 6th Street it's way better.

  • Raul Ramirez

Literally wait 14 minutes for the bar tender at the front of the line, she attended a guy who snuck to the front of the line, I wave at her to get her attention, and I get kicked out. A girl next to me literally left bc she was waiting there for a long time. These idiots have never felt so much power go to their heads before. 2nd floor bar, left side girl. Yall get your priorities straight.

  • Diana Durán

This is the worst club I've ever been to, at the entrance the carpet was sticky and I don't even want to imagine why, I asked the barman for a margarita, mojito, and Red Bull and this girl was so rude saying she didn't have anything but that, they don't have a dress code which allows whatever people to get in and the bar was EXTREMELY dirty. The only good thing was the DJ.

  • PRSuperman09 “Mariano”

Gave it a 2 because at least they played music I like to dance to, but this club is a disgrace to other salsa style clubs due to the fact that people like fighting here and very little is done to rectify it other than "eventually" ejecting them. The set up is too small they could've done better w the area. Been everywhere, but not worth the time or cover charge.

  • Brandi Lira

Arrived at this club at 11:00 pm and the place was empty (see photo). The cover charge for men was $10 and women were free. Drinks were average but served in cheap plastic cups. Once midnight struck, it was so packed I couldn’t even GET to the dance floor! Great music, but you’re either alone in the club or sardined; there clearly was no in between.

  • Sara Ayala

Yo this club is WACK!!! Don't even waste your money here ... The Dj is trash !! you guys really don't know how to party!! You guys play a song for a long time and don't mix it up. Hire a good DJ who knows about music people only come here because its the only latin club in Austin. It was my firt time here too and i was really dissapointed .

  • Sara Enuforia

Worst experience. Freaking DJ from a “radio station” just keeps talking and talking, interrupts all songs with the same dumb phrases. He also doesn’t even mix, He just leaves all songs play all the way. That’s Not a real DJ. Make sure you like to hear that before getting inside so you won’t be upset losing 10 dls they charge for cover.

  • Silvia Jaramillo

From an East Coaster visiting Austin and wanting to hit up the Latin scene, this is the spot. Would definitely recommend as the multiple times I've come to Austin, this was my go-to place. This was the closest awesome vibe I could find to the Latin nightclubs in NYC, and I for sure will come back when I hit up Austin after covid times!

  • Failot A

Security guard said I wasn’t allowed in because of my attire... I was wearing jeans, dress shoes & black tee.... he was wearing sneakers and all athletic wear... he is representing the club but not in dress code himself haha pathetic, if you’re going to be strict with outfits, make sure the people representing you are up to par

  • Alan H

The bartenders are fast, the drinks are strong, the music is great, the dance floor is packed and the crowd is beautiful. The music is mostly Spanish language pop and reggeaton but with some Nortendo mixed in. This is a straight bar but there were a few same sex couples that all seemed to be having a great time.

  • E

If I could leave 0 I would. Worst place I’ve ever been to. This one bartender was so damn rude. She gave serious attitude and used vulgar language. Literally walked out and would never go back. The whole group I was with hated it. It was my first time there and definitely my last.

  • Jahneli Bradburn

The cover charge is $10 when all the other bars around are FREE! Next, $10 minimum on credit cards what a joke. Speaking for the ladies restroom it was flooded. Disgusting much? Lastly, the cheap plastic cups they give you when you order a drink really? A complete mess of a “club”

  • Tee Larza

Not worth the $10 cover AT ALL!!! they would like to make it a high end spot but nope!!! No caps allowed!!! Any other bar on 6th st. will beat this place... best part of the this place is the lights.... Bartenders are horrible, rude and drinks are over priced!!!

  • Christi Afthonia

I totally had a blast here. I was kind of nervous at first about coming here, don't know why I honestly was. However security was super friendly. They opened doors for me even grabbed my hand while walking downstairs in my heels good drinks. It was a cute time

  • Robert Zelaya

worst customer service ever. Bouncer and owner beyond rude. Visiting from out of town and owner was not welcoming at all.. Paid cover charge, was in there literally two minutes did not get refund.. DO NOT GO THERE.. worst experience ever, waste of time..

  • Amareeliz Caballero

10 cover charge to enter and have only about 10 people here.... And they dont allow baseball caps... Staff is rude... and bartender are worst... Do NOT RECOMMEND!!! Way better off GOING to ANY OTHER bar on 6th street than this place... dont be fooled!!!

  • Steven Rodriguez

During vacations, got recommended this place, over my weekend in TX, went to the club where I didn’t go in because my “outfit”, where other girls where using similar outfit were allowed in. I found this very disrespectful. Out of the list and not again

  • Latasha Berkley

Pricey drinks, good vibes, but they really should let you know about coat check and have small tables down stairs to sit at..lol. I seen people with buckets of beer all over the floor, kinda sad. I may go back again, when I need to get out again.

  • Mariana Garza

Place was decent, music choice was good but the DJ talks WAY TOO MUCH AND GETS ANNOYING! There is a cover charge of 10 dollars for everyone on Saturday. Place was super packed around 12am and yet there was a big line to get in. I believe

  • Jordan Brown

$10 cover is a bit much. Then they have a $10 drink minimum which is ridiculous. Female bar tender told me the price of drinks then changed the price when I gave her my American Express. I questioned her and she got rude. Won't be back.

  • Yvette P

We came out of town from NC, the bouncer was letting guys with sneakers but with let not let my friend with who was dressed nice with shorts, our money was rejected. I do not recommend this place if you are coming out of town.

  • Gis

DO NOT RECOMMEND!! If it was possible to leave no stars I would. It is the lamest club on 6th and security staff is so rude. just A Waste OF MONEY I go the club almost EVERY weekend and I WILL NEVER go back to cielo again!!!

  • 5 estrellas loco 504

El ambiente es tuani pero la música solo ponen temas de tik tok porfavor sean serios pongan música de verdad hay tanto Reguetón bueno perriable sandungoso y rico para bailar y tienen q escoger lo peor para poner

  • Lucia Carranza

The manager didn’t let us in because my boyfriend was wearing warmups. We understood, it is what it is but then he proceeded to belittle us about the warmups. Completely disrespected us. Never coming here again

  • maescoba29

What a disappointment, lack of variety in music. Not worth the cover charge for those who really know what good music is. Cielo would have a better outcome if they a broader selection of Music.

  • Mirna Araujo

Security guard at the door was rude . Ever though they say they open at 9. They don’t sell alcohol till 10 and the Dj doesn’t show up till 10 . So there’s no Hispanic music till after 10 .

  • Monica Araniva

I like this place, the dj plays latin music and it gets pretty lit the only thing is that there’s a cover charge and it get ridiculously packed. And has this cute photo op for us ladies

  • Ali Kurdy

Don't read other comments, I been there yesterday I think so it's a best club in 6th if you don't want pay 10$ or buy expensive drinks please go buy drinks from Walmart and stay in home

  • Carina Barrera

Best Latin party in ATX. This is my go to place. If you like to dance and enjoy Latin music, this is the place! They also play other music genres and have one of the best DJs in town.

  • Nathaly Ramos

terrible place stay away from this place security are nothing but abusive if you want to be in a crowded place with no room to dance walk or breath this is the perfect place for you !

  • nick figueroa

Saturday night after 1 don’t go if what you’re looking for is dancing some bachata they won’t play it club too packed. The club itself is decent if you’re into crowded stuff.

  • King Julian

This is your place if u don’t know English it’s no Latino it’s Mexican third world party I’m not racist I’m latino but it’s the worst club don’t spent your money there

  • Danny Jax

My favorite bar/club to go! The audience is really mixed but mostly 20-30s. Prices are not crazy high and it's always fun to go there. And also it's in TX!!! Love

  • Roberto Lucena

nice club to go there. good music playing to dance. not a lot of fighting in there like other clubs like el coliseo. . I recommend you to go to cielo night club.

  • Karen P

Been going to cielo for 2 years never had an issue.. until last night the security tried to get me to BRIBE him to let me in??? When I have my valid of age ID??

  • Jessica Monsivaiz

Good music anf was having a good time sitting at a table until we were told to move from a table that didn't have a reserved sign on it. But was forced to move.

  • Antonio Brown

Fun place Spanish Club. Big young crowd because you have to be 18 to get in. I had my niece with me so it was good for her & that made me happy!! …

  • Hailey Munoz

I bought a $10 drink and the bartender decided to tip herself $50 even after leaving a cash tip, extremely disrespectful, rude, and ILLEGAL!
Service: 1

  • Michelle M

Really fun place! $3 margaritas and Lady's night on Fridays. If you're a guy, make sure you wear pants. Dress code is enforced. There's also a cover charge.

  • Kyle E

Avoid this homophobic bar. They turned away my queer friend for wearing a tank top, though they were letting in women who were wearing less. Fix this!!!

  • Jennifer R

Only thing I didn't like was the floor being super sticky. Music was good, workers were super nice and friendly. Good place for Hispanic/Latin music.

  • J M

Alot of minors there. Anybody can get in no dress code necessary at all. Dont go with your wife or girlfriend guys will grab her ass or grope her.

  • Juan D

Wouldn't be surprised if This joint closes permanently . As they have many reports of people having their pockets picked and wallets missing.

  • Silvia Ramirez

Very rude staff, treat people like if they are a very exclusive club on 6th street. They need change this, if they want more stars here.

  • M Miranda

Latinas Bowl 2017. My first event of the new year. Fairly medium sized venue. Bad tenders were nice for the most part. Music was great!

  • Ariana Luna

It’s a fun place to go if you’re young and wanna party, it does get hot AF though. They play good music. Bartenders are pretty quick.

  • Sabin Dheke

Worst club to be in Austin. Wish I could give zero star. I wish I could give zero star to rude bouncer and people in the club

  • Jesse Red

Lmao in a response to a comment the owner said “you’re wack” that’s funny but explains why this place is most likely trash.

  • Monica Chavez

If you go with the right people this place can be really fun but the dance floor is tiny and the place gets pretty crowded

  • Phillip Mcmillin

I didn't know yall still open yall open tonight planing on stopping by Just like old time haven't been there over 7 years

  • Elisa Castañeda

I love it .! got to be there friday night because girls no cover, so if you like to dance then this is the place !

  • Raymond Lucero

Going through the door They said military free entry but no success going in the door. Combat veterans not welcome

  • Juana Valentina Jerez

Was good! Good drinks, good mood inside. The only thing is the bad changes between the songs, but is Dj’s fault.

  • Abe

They have too strict of a dress code and it’s too small. They single people out and nitpick just to deny entry

  • Matea Strong

Showing homophobia by not letting a queer person enter wearing what they’re comfortable in? Not a good look.

  • Renee

One of the security guys on the staircase was hot, love to see it.

Discriminates the Lgbtq community, especially trans and non-binary. Absolute garbage. #nursenatee -Canada
