First visit since it changed to...

First visit since it changed to Penthouse (from Broadway Showgirls) and was renovated. The place looks terrific inside - its very clean, nicely decorated, and feels quite open. Very high end. In addition to the main stage, there is a secondary stage by the bar, and then there is a transparent stage in the upstairs/restaurant area, that overlooks the main stage and viewing area (makes for some different angles). Pole used for the main stage extends the height of the building (two floors), which is nice.

Dancer quality also seems to be higher than pre-renovation, although as this is SF, it is topless stage and bikini lap dances. Hustle factor was not particularly aggressive, in my view. I was dry on this occasion, and non-alcoholic drinks were reasonably priced.

While there, I met an absolute 10: young, very pretty blonde, with a killer body. Just the right mix of shy and exhibitionist to be incredibly sexy, and seemed to enjoy herself. Had to be patient to get some time with her, but was certainly worth it. Floor dances for $20 were not terrible value. I'd say the semi-private area on the ground level (2 for $60) is a waste. Upstairs seems to be a better bet: 3 for 100 in a much more private dance area (same rules in theory, but less strictly enforced). There are private VIP rooms upstairs as well - looked to be well appointed, and spacious, with dark tinted glass for privacy. My lady suggested this on a few occasions, with the usual insinuation of additional fun, etc, but price was steep ($330 for 30 mins, I think). Did walk by one of these and it seemed like the patron was having a good time, but I don't have specifics or direct knowledge.
