I finally, finally made it into the Nitro. I'm glad I did, and I certainly hope the city fathers and mothers don't shut the place down.

One enters from the alley, pays one's cover, and walks through a corridor past the cashier, past the private club area (unless one is a member), into the club proper. It's intimate and elegant in design. It feels much larger than it really is, although that may be a function primarily of crowd size.

The stage is not raised. It is at ground level, surrounded by a bar and stage-side seating. The bar is a glass and brass latticework which is quite unique for such a venue, and I wonder how uncomfortable it must be for the dancer when she balances between the bar and your seat. Surrounding the bar and stage-side seating is table seating. There's a bar along one wall, and the lap dance area along another wall. The oblong stage bar is split 3/4 - 1/4 between the main room and the private club portion, separated by glass partitions and walls, where one may drink liquor one brings to the club. Otherwise the place is a juice bar.
