Dive Costa .. err Don Costa...

Dive Costa .. err Don Costa is just that; a dark, dirty, hole in the wall across the street from Aprils Lounge (better option). Upon entry, expect to be padded down by some part time security detail. Music at such a level that will nearly hurt your ears. With black light as your only guide, find a seat around the massive round bar that houses one stage with 2 poles. Once you navigate the perimeter, have a seat and be prepared for the unending dollar parade. Within 30 minutes, the same girl may have appeared 3-4 times. And it's bad enough you'll get hustled to buy the bartender a drink too.They promote food; Brazilian BBQ/cookouts on some weekends. Pass. Beyond the stage you will find a pool table and restrooms. No VIP rooms/private areas whatsoever.

On this night, as with most, nearly 8-10 dancers mostly Dominican or Brazilian; some European. There are some hefties and some hotties. Having been 4-5 times, there are always new faces and not always for the better. Since the dollar parade is fruitless, many will ask to come to you on the outside of the bar to sit with you. What this equates to is her friends lining up on the inside and being nagged to buy drinks for everyone. Little to no mileage even on the other side. Useless chatter. Heck they don't even speak English. Pass.
