Great stage performances, attractive dancers, decent dances

Palomino has been a favorite of mine for years, and I continue to visit when I'm in Las Vegas. It's a bit further from the strip than other clubs, situated in North Las Vegas a good twenty minute drive away. My last visit I was charged $60 entry, including two drink tickets, even though I didn't arrive via cab. This time, I rode to Jerry's Nugget across the street as usual and the Palomino bouncer let me in without any cover at all. I don't know if I was a bit earlier (maybe 9pm), he believed my non-cab-ride more, or something else was different. It was a nice surprise to not be out a big fee, however.

The stage is a prominent feature at Palomino. It takes up most of the main club space, and the performances are all excellent. Dancers get nude over the course of a few songs. There's not much interaction with tippers at the rail, other than maybe some extra close-up floor work, but every dancer puts effort in. There are sexy dancers and talented pole performers. I enjoy sitting and watching the stage here more than most clubs.

The dancers were outstanding. They varied in shape from petite and thin to curvy, and across ethnicities. There were more white dancers than others, but the others were represented. Most had natural bodies (other than very common tattoos). When the club isn't busy the dancers will stop by your seat even if you're at the stage; that seems to lessen in frequency later in the night. Every dancer that came by was friendly and chatted a bit before asking for a dance. One was a little pouty when I turned her down, but the others were gracious.
