Finally a place with good music, fair prices, nice staff. The drag show was fun. It was a bit crowded, but the place didn’t get boiling hot which is great! You will see all ages which is great. Definitely would be back.
I rarely leave a review but I definitely had to. I had such a great time this past Friday. I booked a booth for 10+ people highly recommended. All staff went above and beyond. A special shout-out to the bus boys and our server Erika!!!. They all made our experiment a memorable one. We will definitely be back!
The drag show was good, however the place was to packed and to hot inside. I was hoping to have more salsa and not only reggaeton
I have been attending this gem for the last decade and have always seen familiar faces and always felt welcomed. This place is filled with great staff including Melanie and Paolo. Both of these staff members make this place what it is in customer service and are the reason why I continue to come and always invite my friends and family. Jezabel is an incredible host and a great MC. She truly is a queen that deserves the crown year round. DJ Flames kills it every set and makes this place pop. I'm saddened to here that Paolo isn't there and I'm hoping that this is temporary as I would like to see him there behind the bar with a smile that can light up the whole room and the tentative and great customer service that he brings to the establishment. Everyone please check this gem out and ask for Melanie and Paolo.
Ever since coming to Conventos, I never desired to go to any other clubs in Toronto. I feel safe here. It does get very crowded, I recommend come earlier because the lines tend to get very long even by 10:30 p.m, but aside from that they play dance music which I love comparison to other clubs that mainly play trap music. Always good vibes here. Highly recommend it for any occasion!
I was expecting much more from this place. This was my first time and what is interesting is the drag queen show in the middle of the night. The entrance is 15 CAD and you can pay by credit card. The bar only accept cash and a regular beer is around 8 CAD the DJ was OK. It’s a place worth a visit I’m not so sure if I will come back, people are smelly there.
A few things i found concerning about this venue. They give away table reservations if you don’t come at 9:30 pm. You still have to pay $15 even if you have table service. The staff at the front said you still have to wait in line despite booking a reservation. The lines at this club are very long. This club has excellent music and entertainment. The shortfall is the general customer experience. The bottle service experience was subpar. I have to say Erica was outstanding. She was servicing us, she was great tried to make our occasion special. It was a challenge to keep things stocked for example chase, limes, straws etc. Unfortunately there was another bottle service girl who was not helpful at all. They cleared our bottle table at 230am. There was still one bottle we were still working on that was taken which was really disappointing and the girl that cleared it did not seem to care at all and took no responsibility for it. She later just disappeared once i asked for a manager. Anywho, great atmosphere, maybe don’t celebrate an special occasion here. They don’t know VIP experience, and they don’t drive positive customer experience.
The music is great, and of course the Queens always put on an amazing show. 2 stars because the men there are way too handsy and insist on trying to dance with you. It’s definitely not a comfortable environment for Queer folk even though El Convento promotes it as such. The majority of events held are Bachelorette or Birthday parties for straight people.
I wish I could give zero star to this club. My friend and I stepped out to smoke for 5mins, and when we tried to get back in, security didn't let us go back and he said you drank too much! We had paid the cover and had a bottle service too. He said go home! He even didnt let me go take my bag, and my friend brough for me. We all left with the bottle left on the table and couldn't see the show too. I regret that I suggested my feiends to go this place, and ruined our night and wasted our money.
Did my birthday party at this place. What a good time! Great music, fun show, and the staff were really nice.
