Formerly Nathan J's, rumored to be...

Formerly Nathan J's, rumored to be Deja Vu Gold, this club now has all its signage changed and it appears to officially be a Little Darlins. It was bought by the Deja Vu chain a few months ago and has seen a great deal of construction vehicles in its parking lot ever since. I used to frequent the old Nathan J's a few years ago, so I decided to stop in and see what the changes had brought.

The place still feels like a warehouse inside (large, open and mostly vacant) but it has had some renovations. The silly overstuffed leather chairs and slightly raised platform have been removed. The dj / dancer entry / stage setups are basically the same with some minor modifications to the stage itself. The bar and bathrooms are mostly the same. All in all the makeover appears mostly paint and trim.

Now on to the important stuff... It was a friday afternoon shift. I sat at a table near the stage and waited for a drink. That took about 10 minutes. During that time 0 (ZERO) girls went on stage. I saw 1 dancer off talking to a customer at a table. Beyond him and I, the only customers were a few guys at the bar talking to the bar and wait staff - appeared to be friends or very serious regulars - and werent interested in the dancers or stage show at all. I stayed for about 45 minutes, nursing my beer, taking in the environment and waiting for things to improve. They didnt. I saw a total of 2 dancers go on stage in all that time, and I believe there were only 3 total dancers working.
