Not much better since pandemic restart, but a decent crowd

FD raised the admission price from $20 to $30. IDK if there is only price change applies just to after 8pm entry. I remember 12noon-5pm was free, 5pm-8pm was $10; but who knows now.

They check your vaccine status upon entry. There's usually a diff hostess/girl any night, so if you're regular chances are the hostess can't remember if you're vaxxed, so you have to provide vax proof each time.

Compared to other clubs, since I frequent Rick's too. I'd say FD has brighter lights so you get a better look at the girl. FD has non-arm rest couches along the walls, this means more of the lapdance time has the girl facing you with one at least one foot on the floor (its and NYS or NYC rule) vs ass sitting on you.

More latinas at night than eastern-euros (in fact not much of the pre-covid dancers have returned). FD has stricter attendance rules for their dancers, so you'll likely find girls during anytime of day (vs Rick's where bulk of dancers show past 10pm). Still $20/song dance. I think the song time has gotten a bit shorter, but that could have just been the dj that night. As for the dancers' looks it not the pre-covid days full of drop dead gorgeous bodies, now it's decent looking girls with 1 or 2 knockouts. The hottest body girls now are the black girls though only a few in the club (if you're a russian lover this place would disappoint). Not many spinners working late night as dancers, but you'll find hot waitresses.
