Went to Gatsby's on 3/30/06. Arrived about 7 PM and stayed to about 11 PM. No cover charge at our arrival, don't if this is always the case.

The number of dancers varied while we were there, with some leaving and some arriving there was always at least 6 girls there. The layout of the club was one large stage at one end and a large horseshoe shaped bar in the middle. At the end opposite the stage was the VIP room, which was furnished with several couches.

The girls were not required to dance a set on the stage, in fact, the entire time we were there I counted only 3 or 4 times where a girl was on stage. Most of the time the girls just sat and drank with the customers, I assume that these guys are regulars at the club. In that sense the club seemed to be a neighborhood were girls take their tops off. Another thing that struck me as odd was that there were several girls dressed in a street clothes, jeans and tennis shoes, that would take their tops off and do table dances for the guys they were sitting with. I assume they were dancers who either had finished their shifts or just didn't want to change clothes.

The going price for table dances in the main bar area was $5 and a private dance in the VIP room was $15. I did partake of a dance in the in the VIP room with best looking girl, who was about a 8. The average girl was probably in the 4 to 5 range.

Overall Gatsby's is a nice place to drink, but apparently unless you are a regular it is hard to get any attention from the girls. The manner in which this club operates is much different than anyother club I have visited. in that the girls did not show much desire to seek out tips or dances.
