Ebony Inn

If you don't know the area try to check it out before dark.

The clubs in this area have had issues with the county trying ro shut them down; various clubs kinda bit the dust but this one seems to still be going fairly-strong (a previous reviewer mentioned ownership is somewhat connected with the politics of the area but whon knows) - seems around the time they had issues with the county is when they changed their hours - not exactly sure when it opens; sometime b/w 3 & 5; but due to the change in hours dayshift now officially lasts till 10pm ($7 dances on dayshift; $10 nightshift after 10pm).

On my visit I think I arrived around 5:30pm - it seemed to me there were more dancers on dayshift than nightshift (and IMO the dances were better on dayshift).

Some reviewers have mentioned there are more girls past 6pm (vs when they open) -I rhink 5pm is a sweet spot to arrive given dayshift is so long.

Comments about the area IMO are exaggerated - I didn't notice anyone not affiliated with the club hanging around - there are people outside but the are either staff, dancers, or custies (since smoking is not allowed inside) - and it's better if their are people affiliated with the club outside for the extra eyes.

I wouldn't go for a jog around the neighborhood but going from the parking lot to the club is just a few feet and I didn't see any dangers other than crossing the 4-lane street (parking is mostly across tje street in a church parking-lot (church seems may only be open for Sunday service?) - I paid about 4 visits (dayshift and nightshift) over Memorial Day Weekend and the church was never in service kinda looks like it's been closed/out-of-service for a good while).
