I went here a little while back with some friends of mine, one of whom had never been to a strip club before, and I don't think it was a great experience for him. First thing's first though. The bouncers were very friendly, and they made an exception to let our 18-year-old friend in even though at the time we visited, they were only supposed to let in people over 21, so they gave him a wristband and we went in with no problems. While the $20 cover may seem a little steep, it does include two drink tickets which can be exchanged for non-alcoholic drinks or beer.

This strip club is not very big, and the stage is rather small. I don't know about the VIP area though, as none of us went back there. I can't really fault the club for its size because it's in a pretty busy area of NY, but as California natives we were kind of turned off by the cramped feel. Girls were of a variety of races (though not many white girls), but some of the Asian ones had very heavy accents which made them hard to understand over the music. They were not super pushy but considering it was my friend's first time at a strip club I did get the sense that he was feeling somewhat harassed. Also, we all agreed the quality of the girls there was not that good - many of them were only slightly above average. The girls who were on stage seemed to have a pretty even trade-off: either they were good looking and not great dancers, or great dancers and not very good looking.

All in all I wouldn't come back here again.
