After taking a two-month hiatus from Night Shift, I returned twice in the past month. This review covers two visits in July 2023.

Physically, the venue is still very nice and it is kept clean. The decor is cohesive with a silver/grey theme. You walk in on the right side of the building facing a main runway-style stage with spinning pole (dancers walk up stairs on the side and then emerge through a beaded curtain). The bar is on the left next to the stage. There are three TVs mounted above the bar. In the back beyond the bar and front seating is the walled-off, neat and clean private area with three LD cubicles (I think $30-40 for 2-3 songs) and two curtained private rooms ($350/30, I think there is also a $200 option for 10 or 15). The bathrooms are clean enough, but obviously don't get as much attention as the front of the house.

The management and staff at Night Shift have always been a strong point. This may be because they know me well already, but they do make a point of regularly circulating and making sure everyone is a happy customer. Servers/bartenders Erin and JoJo are very friendly and professional.
