We’re a couple and we’ve been rejected at Sisyphos twice by the exact same door guy. Feeling a bit lost and hoping some regulars can help.

First try:
We showed up around 4am dressed pretty casually. He asked “Have you ever been to Sisyphos before?” We said no. Instant “not tonight.”

Second try:
Came back another night in much funkier outfits. Same guy. Same question. Same rejection.

Is the “first time?” question just a soft way of saying no, or are we missing something (vibe, timing, how we carry ourselves, etc.)?

Any tips from couples or people who actually get in regularly would be really appreciated. What actually works at the Sisyphos door?

Berlin club recs for a couple tonight?

Looking for a non-techno club with Afrobeats, Dancehall, R&B, Hip-Hop or Latin. We’re a couple and looking for a fun, open/flirty atmosphere where my girlfriend can dress up and we can dance/socialize. Privacy is important too, so ideally a no-photo/no-video vibe.

Already ruled out Berghain, Sisyphos, KitKat, Soda, Matrix, Alt-Kantine and Weekend.

Any recommendations?
