If you want to be treated badly and humiliated, go to this club. The bouncers and security at this club are extremely rude, vile and disrespectful. Told us that the club was full and refused to let us in yet they let in about 100 people in during the time that we waited outside in the cold. The bouncers are very biased towards "certain" people, they use foul language and swear at people and as an establishment that attracts paying customers, this is absolutely not the way to be treated. This club is vile and whoever the owner is, needs to re evaluate if this the way it wants its customers to be treated. Absolutely disgusting service and I will be spreading the word about the bouncers. It does not do well as an establishment to have a terrible reputation with customers service, even if you are a club. Disgusting!

If you're looking to have a good night out with friends, do not go to Azar.

The club was initially called Tokio, but was re-branded into what is now Azar - a supposedly higher-end club and lounge although the venue itself is in one of the dodgiest and worst possible locations in Durban. Several muggings and gunfights have happened outside the club, and fights inside occur on the regular.

Staff
The security are rude and corrupt (my friends have bribed them to get into the venue on busy nights) and have an aura of arrogance despite their social standing. The latter can also be said about the owners, whom are arrogant and abrupt towards their patrons. They do not seem to realise that the people that go to their club are the same people that fund their lifestyles - so expect to be treated like rubbish. The hostility is greatly unwarranted. It is the biggest turn-off about this place actually, and the reason why I am writing this review.

Entrance
They have a rule that only couples and females may enter the club, so if you're a group of guys just looking to have fun, expect to wait at least an hour to get in (if you get in at all). Furthermore, entrance fees are at a minimum of R100 and can go up to R200+, which is ridiculous.

Crowd & atmosphere
In brutal honesty, the crowd itself is lacklustre and, more often than not, there will be a fight at this venue as I've said before. People tend to stand idle around the dance-floor, and don't seem to be enjoying themselves. I have seen people on drugs in this club.

Alcohol
Drink prices are as per usual, so around R20+ for a beer or cider, and R40/R50 for double vodka and mixture.

Conclusion
If you're a concerned parent wanting to know about where your child is going, a tourist, or anyone for that matter wanting to know about this club, you shouldn't ever consider entering or letting your child enter this venue. With all things taken into consideration, you are definitely better off spending your money elsewhere. Although a vast majority of my mates go there as it is popular, I will not in future. Plainly, I refuse to support this venture. A much better alternative around the area, with a better crowd, experience and safer environment would be Tiger Tiger, which is in close proximity.

TL;DR
The security and owners are arrogant and think they're God's, the location is dangerous, and crowd is woeful. The club itself is overpriced. Don't waste your time here, rather spend your money elsewhere, you'll have a much better time.

It's a great place nonetheless but its a bit pricey and very upmarket and the people can be uptight can't really fully turn up...

As a performer they had no idea I was performing. Door lady was unprepared and unfriendly. No change at the bar...

I have been there one Friday and I spent a nice evening. Good music, nice People and so on. I came back on Saturday and in a very very bad mode on man of safety staff didn't allow me to enter taking the excuse that the entrance is restricted to the couples. I don't know if is True but sure a so nice place deserve more friendly staff specially towards the customers who spend a lot of money without disturbing any one. I am in this country since 3 years and i didn't received a treatment like this. I am sorry but teach to the staff in service at the entrance of this nice place how to perform with the customers.
