Best value in Manhattan, huge selection of girls.

I've been to multiple traditional strip clubs in Manhattan, Gallagher's in Long Island City/Queens, and underground ones like C'est La Vie and Masked Nights. Without a doubt, Lido Room has the largest selection of girls and best value if you go on Thursday night which is a required working night. Thursdays will have 80-100 girls or more, situated on the second floor of a club space with lots of room to stand and move around. The clientele is mostly 20s and 30s professional guys, although there are a good amount of older guys as well.

It's open 7 pm-4 am Tuesday through Thursday and Saturday, sometimes Friday if they can get a venue. Half-price drinks and $40 cover before 9 pm, or $60 cover after. The party doesn't really start until 10 pm and starts winding down after 1 am. They usually have food like pizza, Mexican, or sushi but you have to be on the lookout and grab it when it arrives.

The girls are pretty and friendly for the most part, all in their 20s, mostly white Americans with a few Eastern Europeans, Latinas, and Asians mixed in. They're your girls next door, ranging from students to models, artists, actresses, designers, and other working professionals. Mostly slim and brunette with a few blondes. Looks can range from great looking to just good or average. The general procedure is to chat for a few minutes or more before getting a lap dance. Most of the girls can be friendly and keep a good conversation, but some can be impersonal or awkward. Some girls will approach the guys to chat and ask for a dance, while others will stand back and wait for interaction.
