Shalom Exotica, I wondered how you stayed in Business this long. Please don't come back now, ya hear? Exotica is currently undergoing "remodeling", which is newspeak for the Oregon Liquor Control Commission yanked their liquor license.…

Things to like: Hawthorne Strip and Sassy's are nearby. Things not to like: Ultra Rude and Slow Service, Dancer's Looks, Dancer's Attitudes, Seating, Parking. I can't say anything good about this place- I hated it ten years…

Things really haven't changed much here since it was Club Cabos. While there was an uptick in talent just after they opened, the entertainment has settled into its old niche- a neighbourhood bar that just…

I can't see how anyone could write a good review for this place unless they work here- I'm down from visiting a couple of times a month to once every six months or more, and…

Things to like: Cheap Drinks, Ample Seating, Friendly Bar Tender On The Fence: Pool Tables, All Death Metal - All Day - All Night, "Unique" stage arrangement Things not to like: Even after the recent remodel, it…

The good: variety of women working the floor, table/lap dances On the fence: cover charge, parking The bad: cover charge, seating If you're in Jiggles, don't expect a gentlemen's club sort of experience- while the club has a…

Stopped by last Friday night- was expecting a large crowd, but the parking lot was empty. When I got to the door, I found out why... Management has changed, as have quite a few of…

This club is a lot of potential and I look forward to coming back in the future to see if it pans out. Stuff to like: - Seating - Stages - Service - Seem to treat their contractors well On the…

This was a decent place when it was Wildcats- although it was a dump, I really liked the management and the service. The women dancing were so-so at best, but at least they were usually…

Star's is supposedly "under new management" even though it's still owned by the same syndicate, so take that for whatever you think it means. As far as I can tell, most things still haven't changed over…

Despite the fact that this venue's been cursed for a few years, undergoing at least a half dozen name changes in the process, I thought I'd give it another shot. Things to like: - Physically, it's easily…

Soobies has tried to change its clientèle in the last year- it used to appeal to Gresham's Glock-carrying Gangsta junior set, but since the shootings, it looks like they've tried to go for that homespun,…

I was visiting my favorite music store, so I decided to stop by and see what had become of the place since it was the Sandy Jug. Not much apparently- it looked like they hadn't…

When we finally managed to get seated after an hour or so, I just wanted to just sit and observe for a while, but a couple of dancers plopped down on our laps the second…

Turnover is so high here, it's almost impossible to fairly rate this place- I suppose if you live in Sandy or ZigZag, it might have some appeal, but for the most part it doesn't stray…

As neighborhood strip bars go, this isn't a bad place. Like a couple dozen other places in town, it's got a single cobbled together rack, a bar to belly up to, a few pool tables,…

This is absolutely the most fun strip club in all of Portland, period. While you shouldn't expect "Vegas show-girl" women, you don't get the accompanying nonsense with that goes with those sorts of clubs either.…

Things to like: - Best looking dancers in Portland - Great service - Zero "wanna dance" or "gentlemen's club" B.S. On the fence: - The food is cheap, but it's greasy - Hard to find a seat away from the rack…

A slightly above average (for Portland, at least) strip-bar run by the same people who own Dante's and Lucky Devil (catching the theme here?), as well as a few other local enterprises. Things to like: Service-…

After a couple of visits, I really wish I had something nice to say about this club, but I just don't. The service is terrible, the music is too loud, it smells like a tobacco…

Things to like: - Non smoking. - Service is outstanding. - All the women were not only good looking, they actually put on a performance. - Outdoor seating is terrific. Things not to like: - Around eight thirty, the talent walked…

Dino's is now "The Hawthorne Strip". The bad news is that there's the same kinds of women dancing, same bar, same 4 x 4 stage with a pole as your enter the bar, same service, same…

The Boom Boom Room hasn't improved as of late- the bouncers need some training on how to work with the public, the DJ has gone from hip to hopped up on something (The music used…

Stopped by on a Sunday night, with low expectations. I don't know why it's taken me 10 years to finally go there, but I'm glad I did. Had a few dances in the 3/100 area and…

Big shock here... It's a blue collar, neighborhood bar. One that just so happens to have a girl get naked every so often. Big freakin' deal. The two women I saw "dance" were nothing special- I…
