Me and a couple of my friends went there on a Saturday night to watch DJ Paul Van Dyk play. Anyway, we got bottle service and a table, we went to the main area for a bit and came back. A bunch of guys had taken over our table, and when we tried to go and sit there, they threatened us and pushed us out. When we called security, they did nothing about it. The guys who threatened us were still there, and we decided to leave. Point is, if you want to get your money's worth, do NOT go there. Gangs and other questionable characters hang out there, and security does nothing about it.
Pros: Good Music, Choices
Cons: Bad security, bad clientele, not friendly

many, many years ago 1015 was known as "martinis" and was considered THE place to be. it had an underground but hip vibe to it. i can even remember the lines to get in would wrap around the block....and that was b4 the doors even opened (they also had a "velvet rope" policy). fast forward a couple decades and although we now have a much renuvated venue and better sound systems...the majority of the clientele are...questionable. to prove a point, i believe it's the only BIG s.f. (mostly) dance venue that pats you down and uses a metal detector. more has been improved to keep out the undesirables like better lighting (it was WAY too dark in some parts of the different rooms) and even more renovations but they really need to keep radio hip hop outa there and change up the constant trance in the main room (all that trendy hyphy stuff keeps bringing in the unclassy wannabes and the trancey junk always brings in the tweakers).
Pros: multiple rooms, lots of room to dance
Cons: too much trance, TOO much hyphy/crunk hip hop, trendy people but in a bad way

This club should be renamed 1015 ASIAN as everyone in the club but the two in my party were all Asian. In a city as large and diverse as San Francisco why would anyone want to go and dance here unless you were specifically looking for an Asian date! The DJ was decent downstairs but I would not recommend this club to anyone until it is under new management.
Pros: Being Asian
Cons: Not being Asian

I went with my man on a Saturday night/morning. Line was pretty long, going around the block. I think the cover was a bit much ($20), but there are a couple of dancefloors inside, & they were playing some good trance that night. Parking wasn't that great, although one guy from the street helped us get a spot. Wasn't feeling the dancefloor upstairs, & didn't check out the one below. Main dancefloor was okay, but I really liked the trance dancefloor. Overall, I had a good time, will definitely go back, but will try to get on a list in order to avoid that pricey cover!!
Pros: Several dancefloors
Cons: Bad parking, Cover charge

1015 slipped of for a while, but me and my girlfreinds went there this past weekend, and wow, security was realy freindly, sexy people. the remodeling they did is amazing, I almost couldnt recognize it anymore. definitly go to the website 1015.com . you can get in for free on most saturdays by signing up. they even have bottle service.
Pros: sexy people, stiff drinks, its like 4 clubs in 1
Cons: can be crowded, line to get in

After going to 1015 again it is always a great experience. Except last night when I stepped outside to have a smoke after making it was ok to do by inside security. After I was done outside security wouldn't let me back in. It was freezing outside and my jacket was checked which they wouldn't help me get. But the girl I was with, they let right back in. Messed up.

i have some fond memories of this once awesome club! for some 1015 can still to be a great venue, i.e. fantastic sound systm, dance flrs, lighting, etc. however, my last visit after a long time to see Dave Ralph - the nite turned out to be lame...there was no energy! hardly any crowd at 1am. to see a good dj spinning for a small crowd, the place just lost the vibe. hopefully, 1015 mgmnt realizes the potential the club still has to capture its "glory" years, and transform it back into the kick-a** venue like it was!? we know the biggest draw to any club are big promoters bringing in big names - so lets get 'em back!!! show the city what a cool place 1015 is for a Sat nite to party!
Pros: sound system, the lighting, dance floors
Cons: full body search, glowsticks

1015 is an excellent club located in a safe area of SF. Parking may be a pain, but costs slighly less than other clubs. The line to enter usually moves fast and cover is a bit on the expensive side (usually $20 and up). Bouncers and bartenders are decent. Although the club has recently been renovated, it still may be too dark and large for some. The main floor has a terrific sound system with lazer and nitro special effects (very rave-like)! The club has attracted some famous DJs like Ferry Corsten and Paul Van Dyk. 1015 also has 3 other smaller dancefloors playing a variety of music (though the atmosphere isn't nearly as good at the main room). Overally the crowd is generally friendly and easily approachable. 1015 is definitely one of the best places in the area for house, techno, and trance music.
Pros: great DJs, several dancefloors, newly renovated
Cons: , strange odors lurking, pricy

Recently went to 1015 w/ my friends and we had fun! I was impressed the line moved so quickly, although the wait at the two bars were incredibly long! I just gave up and didn't feel like bothering or waiting half an hour for a drink! Perhaps they need a new bar or hire more bartenders. I heard about the sound system, but I must say, the music could have been louder. Overall, the music they did play was good and the crowd is good. I'd go again, but this time I'd be on the guestlist so I don't have to pay the $20 charge.
Pros: Fast lines to get in, Music, Atmosphere
Cons: , Cover charge, Volume
