to respectfully rebut the gentleman whose review precedes mine - we don't give nice ratings to rick's because the bathrooms are clean, or because it has supermodels and pornstars. rick's earns those ratings in the VIP. the women aren't all as gorgeous as the rip-off shacks in vegas and elsewhere, but they deliver. If you're the kind of guy who likes impossibly beautiful women to give him air, then ricks isn't for you. in fact, nothing in seattle is. if the only things that matter are terribly gorgeous girls and strong drinks, you'll be disappointed. but if you want to have a good time - the kind of time all those gorgeous girls in vegas are always trying to convince you is just 7 or 8 dances away, rick's is your joint. no matter what Chris Rock says, the vip is worth the trip.

as regards the recent bad publicity - didn't seem to change my experience at all, but i only got dances from someone i was already familiar with. can't say that i tested the whole club, but the dances were as good as nighttime gets 2 days after the article.

happy lapping.
