This is definitely a pricey place but of course that's to be expected with such a prime location. As soon as you walk in you'll go down some stairs and be greeted by a man at a desk asking for $20 to get in (assuming it's after 8pm). You'll then be forced to check your coat, which is another $3, and finally a mandatory drink (at least one is required) which is at a bare minimum $10 - and that can pretty much only get you water or soda. If you want a beer it's more like $12 (+ tip). So you're probably going to be out around $35-40 before you even get any dances, but to me this place is actually worth it, and I'll explain why:

1) On a good night, you'll have practically the best looking strippers out of any NYC club. They're probably among the finest you'll see in a US strip club in general. On a not so good night, it won't be as impressive as the 'top tier' girls tend to take off at the same time (as they know what days are busy and make them the most money). During the winter holidays (i.e. a few months ago), the girls also were not as hot as usual. But aside from these caveats, as it gets closer to the weekend and during the weekends you'll generally find amazing quality girls (looks wise). If you are looking for conversation, that may be hit or miss here depending on how busy it is and how well you vibe with the girl. I personally find that most of the girls I like tend to work on Thursdays and/or Fridays (both of these days seem better than Saturdays to me). Another tidbit is that no matter when you walk in, if it's after 8pm the nightshift girls should be there. There are a very small amount of girls who work a 5pm-1am shift, but the majority work from 8pm-4am and stay there the whole time. So even if you come in at 3am you'll find the same girls who were there earlier in the night. At some other clubs, girls tend to go home early if the place is not strict about schedules. In a way it sucks for the girls, but it's good that guys won't see a drop in dancer quality later in the night.

2) The lap dances range from decent to *very* good for NYC. I've had dances here where a girl has given me practically the best grinding I've ever had in my life. I've also had a few girls who were borderline airdancing and some are not as cool with touching as others (YMMV). But typically it's not hard to find a girl who gives good dances, and if you go here frequently (which I do) they'll get to know you better and be cooler with you having a bit more fun with your dances. Unlike everything else, dances are not overpriced here, at $20 a pop. I usually tip, but it's not absolutely required - most girls will not really mind if you don't.
