Nice Decor - BORING for a Strip Club - Bad Value for $$$

Just got back, it's 1am, and pretty ticked off, so writing this fast & furious. Haven't been in LA for a while so wanted to check strip club WITH DRINKS while on this trip. When ya go to a strip joint -- sure decor is great -- but much more important is ACTION, entertainment, T&A, a club with some kind of personality, etc. If there's little action, and no nudity, not even topless, then don't charge $10 cover, and don't lie in advance about drink prices.

First THE BAD: 1) It's a BIKINI BAR - NOT TOPLESS. 2) TUSCL should probably update the Cover Charge on a Wednesday night to $10 -- I always thought it was $5. When the bouncer said $10 a couple guys in front of me left, I was like "wtf $10?", and so did a couple people behind me. 3) The bouncer then said beers were $2 so that made up for it. I figured that's a good deal, so paid the $10 PLUS tip, and checked in, but the second beer was $5, PLUS tip! WHY LIE??? I'll show you my receipt. 4) The place is BORING. I was there for a couple hours and did not see a single bit of nudity. Strippers DO NOT take their tops. 5) If you get a private dance they're $20 for nada mucho FULLY CLOTHED, and NO CONTACT. They have 2 for 1 dance specials, but the DJ cuts songs off early. 6) The "Value" for your moola here is horrible.

Now for THE GOOD: 1) Nice appointments, decor, furniture, granite & marble & wood, the layout is cool, lotsa TVs, and the place is clean. 2) Good place if you wanna just hang out drinking with buddies, blow some moola, watch sports on TV, or chat with BINKINI CLAD strippers.
