Visited: Saturday Evening

The place was well lit and had optional valet parking. After pulling in and getting oriented, I realized it was not mandatory and just parked in the back and walked in. Large parking lot and well lit so no problems. Outdoor security was decidedly unfriendly and unhelpful but the doorman made up for it. This guy was genuinely and openly friendly and greeted you like a long lost friend. Very tall black man with an accent and a big smile on his face every time I saw him. Good dude. Cover charge was $12.

Well, this visit was in early March. It was by far the nicest strip club I'd been to so far. It was quite large, with very high ceilings. There was seating and VIP upstairs , which is basically a surround, looking down on the main stage. Didn't spend time up there. Large central stage with entry from the back, along with stairs on either side the dancers made use of. This was surrounded by 3 other small stages, and later in the night there was a small stage up top within view that was active. There is a trap door in the middle of the main stage and some dancers would use this for a theatrical entrance or exit. Also they had sort of a dollar gun that would shoot wads of dollars out over the stage from time to time from upstairs. There was plenty of seating early in evening, at round tables clustered about the stages. two bars down stairs and I kind of planted at one to get a feel for the place. This worked well as wait staff was slow on the floor (seemed understaffed). I did have a steak dinner, their special that night, for less than $10. Sides were good, steak not so much . I only drank Bud light which, I think was $6.

Well, now to the dancers , which is why Im there. There were a lot of them! mostly 8s and up, with a few 7s. They cycle from the main stage for a few songs then to the side stages (easier to talk to them there but takes a while for them to cycle through). Not really any touching on stage, they will take your tip by hand or you lay it on the stage. I went with 4 dancers in the back, which is fairly private , in small rooms, no doors, but down hallways. These were $20 per song, topless and 2 way contact of variable intensity. All were dancers that approached me, which didnt happen that often. I was looking for one particular asian dancer who was absolutely gorgeous, but always went back to a group of men at tables after set. tipped her at stage but someone had always beat me to punch. Friendly enough, but seemed a bit chilly when not being directly engaged, so maybe for the best.

Overall this was a fun place, and I spent less than I do at my local (bikini) bar for much less. I had fun and look forward to another visit.
