Platinum West
Tuesday visit. Cocktails are discounted on Tuesdays.
Mix of dancers: white, black, Asian, Latina, European.
Clean. Bathrooms in fair shape.
Food. Don’t see many people eating here.
Drinks: Mostly good. Think I caught them shorting me on the whiskey in one of my mixed drinks once. Beers run high, I wanna say around $7.
Dances: Range from $25-40. Some divas stick to the $40. Most dancers will come down or do a 2-for or 3-for price.
Dancer quality: Since stage tipping is pretty poor, quality can suffer. There are some 8s and 9s at times. Some dancers seem to spend the evening hanging out at the same table, presumably with friends.
VIP: $500-600. Some partake but I feel it’s overpriced.
Extras: Have gotten take out. Depending on the dancer and motivation, can get some extras in the private dance area.
Dancers vary. Can be aloof to charming pleasers. Some dancers probably wouldn’t be able to dance elsewhere, but there isn’t the competition here.
Parking: Free.
Cover: $6.
I’ll spend $200 up to $700, depending on the night, vibe of the dancers, and the extras available.
The people are relaxed. Never saw a fight or so much as a cross word.
