Ok, I just reviewed this place from my visit back in 2011. My newest review is from Feb 2013. Back in 2011 this club was the best I've ever visited. Reading some of the more recent reviews, it seems like this place has lost some of its luster. Unfortunately, it has. The biggest change is the attitude of the dancers. When I went in 2011, there were many more dancers, and they would visit almost every guy in the place and sit on their lap immediately. You never saw them chatting with each other in a corner. Now in Feb 2013, I was at the club for 90 minutes and not ONE girl said hi or sat down with me on a night that wasn't really busy. I had gone to the stage multiple times giving tips, and still no visits. The girls were off standing in a corner talking to each other. At almost every club I go to, smiling and making eye contact will get you a hello at the very least, but not at this club. It's not like I'm a bad looking guy, slightly above average, but girls were just flat out ignoring me. I'm thinking morale must be low at this place since the new ownership. If this doesn't get fixed the place has no chance with the price increases.

Finally, after I tipped her well on stage, Renee stopped by after I asked her to see me. Although the girls are not nearly as friendly as they were in the past, the dances in the couch room are still damn good. Two-way contact which is great. Lip and tongue contact. Touching etc. Dances are now $40/song which when combined with the unfriendly dancers is a drag. It's best to wait for when the girls all line up and walk off the stage because that's when you can get 2 songs for the price of 1. But, you basically have to grab the girl when she comes off stage and aggressively ask her for a dance, or she'll keep walking. For guys who are nervous or shy about being in a strip club or approaching dancers; you probably shouldn't go to this place. I'm not afraid to seek out dancers I'm interested in and I did this with Lana, and she reluctantly took me to the couch room. However, she performed well despite her hesitation. Finally I got two songs from Angel, who was probably the hottest chick there. Again I had to basically follow her through the club to get a dance, she had a great personality and was a lot of fun, really cool chick.

Considering I tip well after lap dances and had $300 to spend, it was a bit frustrating to basically have to beg girls for a lap dance. They were only paying attention to large groups of guys or really good looking ones. This is expected to a degree at any club, but happened way too much here. It really would be shame for what was such a great club to decline any further.
