THE BASICS: Industrial area of town....

THE BASICS: Industrial area of town. Parking area is surrounded by a solid white wall with a few openings for cars which gives you a (false) sense of security. Well lit, but way too exposed and nestled into other properties that look run down. Occasional drifters just walking by at night near the street. However, the bouncer hung out by the door watching everything, so that made me feel a little better. Cover includes two drink tickets. This is a bikini club due to the Memphis law changes (in effect since 1-1-12). They still serve alcohol, which means the girls cannot be topless. Semi-private lap dances upstairs on old couches for $40 or 3 for $100.

THE LAYOUT: Honestly, the decor is really nice. I would describe the theme as classy New Orleans. The carpet, lighting, and wall decor remind me of an old southern mansion, and that's why I love the facility. Two stories with a large stage in the center. The stage area has an open ceiling so that the second floor has a view of the stage. Padded roller chairs and cocktail tables arrayed around the stage. Full service bar off to the left. The building has a lot of nooks and crannies, so I got the feeling I could slip in and out unnoticed. Lapdance area is the entire second floor, which they misleadingly label "VIP." It's nothing more than an open second floor with couches under a bouncer's supervision. Therefore, unless you happen to be the only one up there, there is no chance of anything happening out in the open (which is fine with me).

THE DANCERS: Seriously, there may have been only five, and about three or four customers. They were all a little thick and not that cute. A couple looked cute in low light, but that's it. My comments in this review describing private dances and prices are from previous visits, because the talent during this visit was so poor that I only used one of my drink tickets and left (went to Pony). It was 10pm on a Saturday evening. I was never approached by any of the dancers, which was odd since the club was so empty. One of the girls stayed with a couple dudes that looked like drug dealers and never left their side, although she was not visibly having a good time.
