DV8 is my new go-to club in Portland. It's a fine place to hang out, fun and VERY HOT dancers, and the overall vibe was chill.
We came in on a modestly-crowded Saturday night. Not posh, but not a dive either and quite clean. There's a stage in the center of the room where you can sit by the rail, but seemed like a look-but-don't-touch situation. Restrooms weren't gross.
Dancers are willing to come by and chat, but not a high-pressure dance situation. Did I mention how hot their dancers are?
Private dances are in little booths next to the main area, so not a TON of privacy. But I did get a lap dance from the most beautiful woman I've ever gotten a dance from -- a blonde who legit could/should be a model anywhere she wanted. She allowed a good bit of one-way touching (no kitty) and was quite friendly and open about her limits, and none of the bullshit you sometimes get from the best looking dancer in the place. If there's a VIP area, I didn't go to it.
Even without dances, this is a fun place to hang out and see hot naked girls. It doesn't feel sleazy or dirty. My dance experience was a cut above typical Portland experience, and I intend to be there again soon.
