One of my favorite places!

I travel to Vegas several times a year and make it a point to stop by Palomino at least once per trip. As others have mentioned, it's easy to take an Uber to Jerry's Nugget and walk across the street to avoid the hefty entrance fee. When I do this, I end up paying a just $10 cover. The neighborhood looks sketchy, but I've never had an issue or felt unsafe.

On my last visit, the place was packed. It was the first time I saw all the stages being used and there were tons of customers...way too many to count. Luckily, there were also a ton of high quality girls working too. As a result, I never had to try and fight for attention. I grabbed a seat at the high top tables by the main bar and there was a steady stream of ladies stopping by to say hi. Most were friendly and the conversations were generally pleasant and not rushed. Of course, they are all looking for dances and VIP private rooms. I wasn't interested in VIP, but did get a number of lap dances which were fun. Most girls were fine with the regular lap dances ($20/song), but a few said they were "VIP only" dancers. I politely said no thanks and they left without issue. I did get a lap dance from 2 black dancers working as a pair ($20 for each girl). It was ok, but not worth it in my opinion.

I've generally always had high mileage lap dances (touching anywhere except between her leg, etc.), but this time I did have one girl who said she only allowed touching in VIP. This is after the dance had started, so I just sucked it up. Hopefully, this doesn't indicate a new trend. Out of 10 or so dances, she was the only one who had this rule so I hope it's just an anomaly.
