My third time at the RP and I continue to be something of a fan. Out of town visitors flock to Archibalds and Camelot. The RP is a local place with certain charms.…

I was there for the day shift for Halloween, and I have no idea what everyone else is talking about with the reviews.
When I walked into the place, the first thing was that it took…

This place used to be an occasional bit of fun. It is by far the "nastiest" dance in DC. The girls are known for spending a large portion of their time on stage…

But it is the girls that matter....and they were extremely unattractive.
Club was shabby to the extreme. Employees were rude. Waitress shortchanged me until…

Went in late afternoon on a recent Thursday, a time which has been pleasantly satisfying in the past. But this time it had all the energy of a pre-season NFL game in the…

Lousy music.
Poor lighting.
Poorly maintained, quite filthy (in a bad way!) premises.
I have a friend who works…

Despite the low reviews, thought I'd drop by since my hotel was close. Definitely concur with prior reviews (at least the ones that weren't too impressed)--it's dark, no LDs and mixture of girls. The waitress…

With no expectations, I came in, thinking I'd just have an expensive beer or two. Ended up with a cute Brazilian who was very much into through-the-pants handiwork. I'd seen her in the…

Afternoon visit. I wouldn't exactly describe it as a "pit" - it is dark and the furnishings aren't exactly first class, but it was about par for the course as far as strip clubs go.…

"Have no expectations" is perfect for this club. One day it can be really good. Others -- like a recent Saturday -- it can be quite bad.
Saturday afternoon: four dancers.…

One of my favorite clubs to just sit back and hang out in, though it is still kind of a dark dingy dump. Not always the most incredible looking women, but not the ugliest,…

Rumors of nice handsy under-the-table contact here at the Palace are true, I'm pleased to confirm. Not every girl, not every time, but yes indeedy, this very un-D.C.-like event can happen. As…

Still a pit.
It is darker, and they've torn up the carpet in part of it to expose the bare floor. These…
