This review is from a dancer's perspective. I worked my shift on their first Saturday open. This was days after their raid. During the dancer's meeting, we were informed a raid would happen, but not when. We were told by a vice officer who does meander around the club in plain clothes during business hours, but is only there to make sure the girls aren't wearing illegal attire. He had told us that anything illegal done upstairs during a raid will be on us and not the club. This officer was there this past Saturday, mostly just sat at the downstairs bar with his back to the stage.

The club's bouncers and security frequently reminded us that anything done in VIP needs to be cleaned up after, so they know what's happening and don't seem to care as long as the customers and dancers clean up. I am not an extras dancer, but I can respect and also understand why and how some other girls make their money.

We are being offered free tip out until grand opening, and some girls are being offered $100 each day to work day shift from open until 9pm with a minimum of 3 days worked. On this night, there were approx. 27-30 girls and I went on stage 7 times with 3 songs each set. The stage is lit up in blue in the middle of the club with 3 30ft spinning poles and 4 small blue satellite stages at each corner with static poles. There is a downstairs bar, but expect to freeze. The a/c is placed directly over it. The sound system is okay, but the DJ is hard to understand. There is a Scores stores selling apparel and dancer outfits and shoes in the lobby. Restrooms are also downstairs.

Upstairs, the locker room is the first door at the top and then the bar opposite. I feel this is poor planning, but all of upstairs is the smoking area, so you have to walk through it to get to VIP. I don't like smelling like smoke and I don't like the people I dance for to smell like it either. There are 31 curtained VIP booths with sound proof walls and tiny chandeliers hanging in each. Each room is 5 feet deep, except for two which have poles. I was able to use both of these the night I worked. The poles should be cleaned off before you go in. I swear they smelled like vagina.

There is no VIP tax, but bouncers do count how many songs dancers are in for. If you choose to take a break during dances, but intend to do more, there are tables to sit at in the VIP section in which your song count will end and start back up once you go back into a room. A waitress is available up in this area, too. There is a men's room at the end of the VIP area just in case business needs to be finished in there (alone).
