The tale of the seventeen dollar...

The tale of the seventeen dollar drink. Yes, $17. I drop in here, time to time, because the line-up of girls is generally young, skinny, unenhanced looking -- these are the visual body types I prefer. But they're just SO money-grubbing it's annoying. Last time I was in, a girl instantly plopped in the seat next to me and demanded that I buy her a drink. I guess I was feeling like a sucker, so I let her and the waitress know that I'd be happy to spend up to $10 for a drink. The girl orders, the waitress says, "Is that ok?" and I didn't think anything of it since I'd been pretty clear. Waitress comes back and says that the total is $26. Mine was $9, the dancers was $17. I said that this was not less than $10, and by the way, $17 is unreasonable for any drink. Here's their excuses: 1. she ordered a call brand of vodka, not the bar brand; 2. it's a two-alcohol drink so it costs me for 2 shots; 3. it's happy hour so it has to be a 2-for-1 drink, by which they mean they charge you for two shots in any one drink; 4. I gave the "OK" verbally.

Bull dookie. I left. Cheating bastards. This is the second time in as many visits that the wait staff has flat-out lied about drink prices in the hopes of stealing money. I recommend you visit across the street or down the street -- plenty of other clubs nearby. This one used to be on top of the bullshoot that the girls pull, but evidently the girls and waitresses have gotten the better of a manager or two. Maybe they're giving a few extra services to the DJ so they can get away with this type of behavior.
