Visited on a Tuesday evening with a group of friends (three guys, two girls). The club atmosphere is very posh; back in the day the place used to be a bank. The last time I had gone to the club, about a year ago, it was called Sheiks. Nothing has changed but the name. Valet parking is $10, cover charge is $8, and they make you check any coats you are wearing (not a big deal, til you want to step out on the small patio for a smoke).

The bouncers/men in suits working the club are quite friendly, and check up on you later to make sure you're having a good time or if there's anything more you need or a specific dancer you would like to have sent over to you.

We had a VIP table, which is a few hundred bucks for a bottle, but not much more than if you were buying single drinks throughout the night which run close to ten bucks. (Though before 11pm on weeknights - and maybe weekends, I don't know - drinks are much cheaper; so if you're there at 10:45 and looking to save $20 bucks for an extra dance, order yourself two or three drinks.)
