I'll be in LA this weekend for an event and "the guys" want to go to a strip club. They think I'm an expert because I'm dating a stripper, but neither of us know anything about LA city clubs.
We'll be at LA Live, downtown by the Staples Center. Is DV Union Station any good? Is there anything better? Should we forget them all? It can be pretty ghetto down there, and we're all whitey-white boys.
The thing is, no cars. So transit friendly. Maybe the Red Line to Cheetah's, which is tame but otherwise OK, plus there's other stuff to do in the area.
OK, You can walk a couple of blocks to the east to Olive Street and catch the DASH D bus which will take you right to the corner where DV Union Station is. Or, since Staples Center is one of the few places where it is not hard to find a cab in LA the DV on Main street is a short trip (walking distance if you weren't worred about it being 'ghetto')
I've seen branded vans at both DV clubs so it might be that if your group is large enough they will shuttle you if you call and ask.
Between the two downtown DV clubs Union Station is better value and Main Street is fancier.
You could also take the Blue line to Rio on Washington Blvd or take a longer taxi ride to Spearmint Rhino.
