Even though it's crazy expensive, this is one of my favorite places in NY for meeting girls that are actually interesting to talk to. There are the standard issue Russian dancers but not as high a % as other manhattan places, and the few times I've gone I've found girls that are both gorgeous and capable of having intelligent conversation.

They often have coupon cards which are good for entry and a free drink, and the free drink can even be a $14 whiskey. If you end up talking to a dancer here, it might be worth asking her for a few of these as I've found they are quite generous with them.

Though I prefer Gallagher's to this place for the money, this is my favorite place in Manhattan as the girls aren't as dry/pushy as a place like flashdancers or hustler & ricks.
