Nikita’s continues to be very different atmosphere depending on time. From 7 to 10 (particularly Wed and Thursday), very slow, with majority of customers relatively low spending Hispanics, and only 1/3 to 1/2 filled. Late at night, lots of good ole boys start coming in, with an increase in those seeking dances. Coming in early for me is best - you can find some interesting girls you can chat with, and then do some dances or VIP with little competition. While there’s an element of “hanging with regulars,” if you tip at the stage and ask for dance, eventually you’ll get attention (sometimes takes a while, though).

No changes in basic design - free Coors light, otherwise BYOB (beer), with dive looking bar/stage, countered by nice couch area for LDs (not greatest privacy), and excellent VIP rooms, with comfortable couches and real doors. Still $60 for 2 dances, and minimum of $300 for 30 minute VIP, payable up front.

Dances and VIP differ significantly, based on the dancer. Some are little more than modest (but not air, for the most part) grind, with some above the waist touching, while others are, uh, friendly to the extreme. Good thing is there seems to be little bait and switch - dancers seem to be honest about limits, though sometimes you need to try out dances first.
