Stopped by after leaving the bars in downtown SD. All around a pretty disappointing experience. First, it's in the middle of nowhere next to the airport so you've either got to taxi it there or park far from the club and walk. As others have noted, the club lost its liquor license ~4 months ago so it's fully nude stage dancing but the closest bar is a half mile uphill across the train tracks, which is kind of weak. Cover is $18 and there's no discount card for return visits so it's a pretty steep cover compared to other SD clubs. You might be able to negotiate it down if you tip the person working the register.

Inside of the club is actually pretty nice. Nice layout with 2 stages, one on each side, and lots of chairs to sit in, although most people were sitting at the rail which is different than other SD clubs. There's still a bar from before with some TVs showing sports. When I went, there were maybe 15 girls working and the same number of customers so they were only using 1 stage. Felt pretty empty/dead and you basically saw all the girls working within 5 minutes. Most girls had made the rounds and had kind of given up on people getting dances. Stage dancing is standard for SD. 2 song set with girl taking off top during first and bottom during second. Girls were all 5-6's with maybe two in the 7-8 range. Most stage dances were pretty mechanical but you get to see a lot of tattoos if you're into that. 3 types of dances - single ($20 per), VIP (5 for $120), and a "champagne" room (was quoted $260 for 30 min or $400 for an hour). The couple of dances I got were mostly air and the different rooms are pretty exposed with the bouncers constantly walking around watching so this is probably the standard for dances, even in the CR.

Bottom line is that there are better clubs in SD. Kind of wonder if the weird vibe in the club is due to them losing their liquor license and having to re-establish themselves. So unless you're already at the airport and need a quick dance, go someplace else.
