Best value in NYC

Easily the best value in NYC, though keep in mind we're still talking NYC here.

The Lido Room is a "private club" situation, you need to request access and get on the mailing list, which gets you invites to the rotating locations. On those locations...they mostly kind of suck. The early-week locations tend to be in fairly small bars, with japanese-style screens set up to block off a semi-private vip dance area. Thu/Fri locations are larger (bigger crowd, more girls), but the setup is similar. There is no stage, you just kind of hang out in the bar area, get a drink, and chat with the girls as they walk around in their lingerie. Most of the girls aren't pushy, you could spend 30 min or more just chatting with them at the bar. The only action though is the $20 semi-private dance.

Good variety of girls, though mostly thin and white or asian; a few latinas. A couple of 6s or 7s, mostly 8s, and a few 9s or 10s. Most annoying bit is when you've found the 9 or 10 you really want to take for a dance, and some guy is just chatting with her at the bar for a long time.
