Sandyamn, thanks for the info. It would be great to meet you and show you around. We had a great night tonight with our $2 Tuesday's. The place was packed. Get over to Austin and let's have some fun. Minnow, I made it no secret that I was the general manager at Rick's. The review is obvious. That was the point. I too am a customer and hit every club up in town once a week. As far as buying cars go, I buy them brand new and never read a review. I buy what I like. I'm not a car guy and never changed a tire in my life so I have AAA. I just bought a brand new 2010 Nissan 370 covertable and and brand new 2011 Nissan Armada Platinum for the wife. Never read a review or asked anyone. Just walked in and said I wanted it. Never negotiated. I do appreciate you participating though. Got to head to the gym guys. I have a power lifting meet to prepare for in a week.

Hi guys, just woke up. Great night in the club. The mens bathroom remodel is going well and the expanded poker tournament on Mondays was a success. Monday Night Football had an amazing turnout, we dam near ran out of wings. I did manage to have a entire tray of drinks spilled on me, my fault for not looking and turning to quick and bumping into our new server. Jcromp856, welcome to the conversation. I wish I could afford to fly everyone out here but my wife watches every dollar I spend and she never misses a thing. If I find a quarter on the floor, she knows. I tell you what, if you can find a way out here I will pay for your hotel for a couple days and make sure you get picked up and dropped off at the airport. I will also pick you up so you can visit the club and I will buy you dinner. The samurai, thank you for the support. I'm sorry you weren't real happy at Rick's in Minneapolis. Andy is the regional manager up there and if you want to send me the details of what you didn't like I will pass them on to him. Andy is a good man and really takes or guests concerns very seriously. We just purchased Schieks up there as well and it's now called Downtown Cabaret. My very good friend Chris, aka "Skinny"is the GM of the new club. Skinny is a great guy and a lot of fun. We both worked at Sapphire together in Las Vegas and he came with me to Rick's Austin before being promoted. He is from the midwest and just loves it up north. If you get a chance pop in there and say hi. Tell him Scott sent you. We also worked together at the Glitter Gulch in Vegas and always joke about weraing the gold vest and bow tie. Bring him a cigar, he loves them. Sauternes, you better come visit my club when you get to Austin. Call me at 702-358-2218 and I will pick you up in our SUV. I will make sure you have a great time. If your a baseball fan let me know. We have season tickets to the Round Rock Express minor league team here and they are currently in first place. We can go check out the game with some ladies. Rh48hr, I appreciate the kind words. I love this industry and I take it seriously. It is a job like any other but it has fed me and the wife for years. I love the idea of an open forum and connecting with guests. I think we are doing a great thing down here in Austin and I am so proud of our club. It was a tough begining getting passed the reputation of the old "Joy of Austin". Not that Joy wasn't a fun place but from what I have been told it really went down hill and no one cared except to line their own pockets. I am a team first guy. The club comes first or your gone. None of my guys hustle the girls or customers or they will be terminated. I always have an open door for the ladies and staff. I love meeting new people and can talk forever although my wife says I never shut up. I got that from my mom, she loved to talk. Anyway, we used to have another Rick's in Austin and it was the most beautiful club I had ever seen and that includes Vegas. It was in a very bad location and just couldn't survive. That's why we got the new location in Round Rock and it's perfect. So we have been battling with the old Joy reputation and people saying we will leave again like we did with the old Rick's, not true. It has been a great ride and we just set a new weekly record last week and it's only September and not even our busy time yet. If we have a good night tonight and an average one tomorrow we will again set a new weekly record. Thanks for the comments guys. I'm gonna order some food from Jimmy Johns and catch up on some paper work.

Georgmicrodong, I will always ask the customer to write reviews. I want their feedback and the opportunity to fix things that need fixing. I have posted signs asking for people to review my club, it's a fantastic idea and I view it as inviting negative comments as well. If they choose to have a good time in my club, good for them. This is a free country and they can write anything they want. As far as improving the club, oh yeah we have. The club has been remodeled, the girls count is 100+ on Friday and Saturdays and most Tuesdays. We have the SUV, new bathrooms and soon to be an additional VIP room. Yes everyone, the club has been retooled since we bought it. We have so many customers who have come in since it was the Joy of Austin and yes they love the improvements. The staff has changed and actually care about the club now. The club is night and day now and it has been an incredible ride. Now we are giving away a car for the second year in a row to one of our entertainers. Clubs giving away cars to entertainers??? Yeah, we do it to say thank you. So yes everyone, the club has changed. Troop, thanks for replying. Guys, I can't make people send in reviews like I can't make you stop writing them but you do, so they will. The funny thing is everyone here is writing about tmy club but I'm pretty sure maybe only one of you has been to it so you can't possibly know the before and after transformation. I suggest you come on in and let us show you how we are. As far as free advertising... You bet. Clubber, looking forward to meeting you. Just ask for Scott at the door or send me a private message and I will send you my number. We can pick you up for free in our SUV and get you home safe. Well boys, got to hit the floor. The poker tournament is going on and the club is buzzing with Monday Night Football. 71 girls checked in right now on a Monday, I love my job.

P.S. EarlFire, we are located in Round Rock 3105 S IH-35 Round Rock, Texas 78664

Just got back from the dentist, the wife had some work done. Doc_Holliday, good to hear you like the Rick's clubs up in Fort Worth. They are run by good guys and a lot of fun. As numbers go, we have been so fortunate and voted the #2 Rick's only behind New York Rick's so yes, we have done something very special down here. We really took off in December and have more then doubled our business since then improving 52% every month from the year before. That's a huge number and we have our customers to thank and hard working employees. In fact, we will beat last Septembers numbers in about 8 days with the rest of the month to go. We have remodeled our customer bathrooms with the mens being completed in a few days. We have added 16 new flat screen TV's for our sport fans and with the addition of our new SUV we are seeing excellent results. Tonight we are having our second poker tournament of the week becuase one just isn't enough. We also sell half price bottles every day so instead of paying $300 for Grey Goose or more at other clubs, it's only $150. Take any bottle out of our menu and I will give it to you for half price. We also have $2 Tuesday's where every drink is $2, premium and down. Rick's Corporation is giving us all the tools to make our guests happy. We were the first Rick's to have the UFC fights and pay per view boxing. So yes, we are different from our sister clubs every where else. Doc, I am the biggest pain in the butt to our corporate office because I ask for everything and keep asking if I don't get it. Come on down to Austin and you will see how different we are. Thanks for participating Doc. Georgmicrodong, welcome back. I'm not sure what to take from your statement but I'm dam glad you're involved. Like I said before, heads up for many new reviewers. I guess you can flag them all but do expect more. Txtittyfan, thanks for your support. It means a lot. I hope I can get an opportunity to meet you some day and show you a good time. Ok guys, I have to head to the pharmacy for the wife and then to the club for some dinner, I'm a ribeye fan and my wife loves the mashed potatos our chefs make. As always, you can find me here or at Rick's North Austin.

Hi every one, Just woke up and glad to see so many opinions regarding our reviews. Txtittyfan, thank you as always for your support. Clubber, sorry the Harley dealership didn't work out. We do have a pretty good relationship with Napalm bikes and I would be happy to introduce you to the owners if you are still in the market. They have been very good to who ever we refer. Georgmicroding, I aprreciate your feedback. Like I mentioned before to Shadowcat, I can't speak for others or their motives. I have read several reviews from accross the street and many seem to be advertisements for their own club pushing speacials meaning they were written from an employee, but I can't say for sure. I do see and understand your point of view. I'm afraid you will be seeing a lot more reviews because again we are encouraging our guests to write them and for 99.99% of them it will be a first time review. We shall see. GSWx4, great point on the first time reviewers. I like anonymous reviews but I would also like the opportunity to make things right if a guest has has an unpleasant visit to our establishment. Remember, this discussion has begun because of anonymous reviews. I think I am the only person who is not anonymous. Thank you for your feedback and yes, Austin is a great city, GO HORNS !!! Essjay, thank you for your feedback. I hope to keep you as a customer and thank you for bringing the issue you had in the club to my attention. Thanks for the feedback guys. I will always make myself available on this site or in person @ Rick's Cabaret North Austin.

That's a really nice dealership. They are about 4 miles north on IH-35. I was at the dealership a few weeks ago to drop off some free admission passes. They have always been very good to us. Clubber, come on in some time and let me buy you a drink and show you around.

The word is show, not showe. Sorry everyone.

Shadowcat, I can not speak for the actions of others or I would have you on a plane out here showing you a good time. Maybe he dated a girl there, used to work there or he just feels that way. The best answer I can give you is write him and ask him. So I take it you won't come out this way? Like I have said to you and every one else. Come on and out and I will showe you why we are the best. If you get your flights for free then I will pay for your hotel and food and of course good time to Rick's.

Shadowcat, I would love for you to come visit my club. I would try my hardest to make sure you had a great time. I tell you what, you come on out here and I will show you a terrific time. If you don't like it I will pay for your flight home. How's that sound?

Thank you for that Txtittyfan. I do care and we have worked so hard down here and are very proud of what we have done. That is why we have posted signs for our guests to leave reviews at this site. I will make their visit a worth wild one or die trying. I can be reached directly at [email protected].

Hello Shadocat, My name is Scott and I am the General Manager of Rick's Cabaret Austin. I have posted signs through out the club asking for reviews. You should be seeing a lot more about us. I hope you get the chance to come out and visit us so we can show you a good time.
