Used to be Showpalace. Still...

Used to be Showpalace. Still owned by the same folks that own Expose down the road, but now it's straight topless with drinks served. The layout hasn't changed much since Showpalace, though it has been classed up a bit. One main stage, two satellite stages on either end of the room. Plenty of room to move and sit, and the drink prices are not entirely unreasonable for a strip club ($5 per beer). The VIP room is also large, with a full service bar, making it feel more like a bar in the northeast.

I was there on a Tuesday night that started quiet, but got more sporty as the night went on. The dances are Austin friendly, and most of the girls are good looking as well as able to hold a conversation. Sat and got dances from Jacquline, who is well worth your time if you go. I don't know if this was just a question of the night or a trend at this club, but there was almost an even ratio of female to male patrons the night I was there.

Overall, this place is well worth a visit. While it doesn't have the prestige and/or legend of Sugars or Yellow Rose, it's far roomier than either, with dancers that look, dance, act and feel just as good. Something like Penthouse, but much more convenient, particularly if you're bound for or coming from the airport. Skip the Landing Strip, skip Expose, and come here instead.
