We went to Heart last sunday (gf is a fan of Acid Pauli)
We booked using their online form. At first I didn't get back an email so I sent them a email. Then I got the automatic mail asking for my card info (deposit in case of no show).
I confirmed my reservation yesterday afternoon (they say it's mandatory on their website).
We got there at 9pm as requested. The entrance is the same as the casino. The casino is on the left, heart is on the right.
A girl with an ipad checked my name and a waiter took us to our table. Since we are french we spoke mainly english all night long and the waiters are all fluent in english.
We started on the terrace with some fine apetizers. We really enjoyed it, you can tell the chef is influenced by molecular cuisine. On the terrace there are various booths : jamon, pictures, cocktails, and so on. Artists pass by and entertain the tables. You get to choose 4 or 5 main courses to share for the dinner.
When you have experienced all the mise en bouche the waiter assigned to your table takes you to your dinner table in the main room. There you get your 4-5 courses during the live show.
The show is really professional with some circus influenced performance (ropes from the ceiling, trapeze, juggling) some poetic scenery (a guy with just a box playing with light schemes) and a live sampling/beatbox/looping while dancers pass by. We really liked this guys and checked his Facebook page. His name is rico loop. At one time there was some impressive african dancers.
At the end you get lots of funny desserts while the people coming for the club wait at the bar and the waiters remove the restaurant tables.
All in all it was worth the price (700€ for 2 with menus wine and 2 cocktails). The show is really cirque du soleil style and everything is well thought and clever (lots of waiters, lights, sound, artists, make up, costumes).
Afterwards acid pauli spun. Not a glance at the audience through his set and he didn't touch the mixer he stayed on his.laptop. I guess he used ableton. It wasn't really the sound we know him for. He played some more dancefloor stuff. Soundsystem is clear and loud, there are artists doing performance on the scene as the dj plays.
As for the people lots of $$$ girls but also some more interesting "off the mold" people, mostly going in and out the dj booth. I think acid pauli has a group of friends/artists that give a more interesting touch to this night.
We will come back next year !
