As I looked at other reviews...
As I looked at other reviews of this place, I still felt the need to see for myself if the just "ok" reviews were justified. So my friend and I decided to check out this club on a Friday night. We arrived just past midnight and went through the pat down / metal detectors. We also paid our twenty bucks entrance fee each and were on our way. The place is decent sized, very similar to Sin City Cabaret in the Bronx. Smoking is allowed in this place and you get a whiff right as soon as you enter (a turn off for me). Beware because you will leave smelling like tobacco, hooka and weed. Yuk! We then purchased two drinks from a not so friendly bartender. The place was somewhat packed with only VIP bottle service areas having space to move. We hung around an area between the bar and VIP that was a standing area only. As we tried to make eye contact with any of the ladies, most seemed to be not happy about working. They were pretty I must say but it but would have looked better with a smile here or there. I've been to a few clubs where there are a couple of girls that are unhappy but not the majority like this place. The ones that are smiling and seem like they are enjoying themselves gravitated to where the money was being tossed in the air. We didn't even get the chance to make an impression as rival patrons were flinging singles at the happier girls (pissing contest basically). It was pointless to try and compete for these girls so we focused on some of the unhappier ones. As we called over a couple of them, it was almost like pulling teeth. As soon as I got that impression, I backed off and so did my friend. We noticed that the place was filling up and still there were quite a few girls not working or wanting to work. We were able to sit at the bar and buy another round of drinks from a different bartender. She was better in terms of being courteous but still "out to lunch". As the girls come around the bar, the tipping parade begins. We tipped every girl that came by but just about all of them didn't make eye contact or gave a basic thanks. Now I've been around to many clubs and usually they try to be somewhat engaging. This was not the case. Just like most service industries, customer service should be a focus. This was the first strip club that it was absent from just about everyone. Unless you were in the VIP area buying bottles or just flinging cash randomly in the air, you were ignored. There were quite a few patrions getting ignored, it was not just us. I can't speak for the rest of them but my friend and I are not window shoppers. But the assumption that because we weren't in the VIP area so we didn't have cash or other currency is laughable. To be passed by over and over again by many attractive yet frowning women was unfortunate. The most friendly person in the establishment had to be the bathroom attendant. He was very courteous, helpful and even tried to make small talk. This should be the gentleman training the ladies who work here how to interact with clients. He has the right idea and honeskt received more of a tip then any of women working this night. So to sum up my lengthy review. If you are willing to spend loads of cash on a Friday night while shifting through frowning faces, then this is the place for you. I will not even give it a go on a slower night, I'll just take my business elsewhere. Too many clubs in the NYC area to focus on the potential of this one. It may be a nice layout in a good area with attractive yet unhappy dancers but the lack of interaction kills it for me. So you have been warned....
