Quality of dancers is excellent. They do try very hard to get you to buy dances and private dances in the back. Side wall laps are good and with the right one at the right time, you can enjoy yourself. However, the value for your money is low. Beers are $7 with another $ expected for the waitress or bartender. Laps are $20 each and seem to be very short. They are in the open with no room for privacy. Fell for the more private sales pitch of the dancer. Gave the manager $200 for the $190 couch fee which he pocketed. When I asked for my change he answered that most people tip. I got my $10 back. The private dance was nothing more than a tease with unfulfilled promises. The doorman was very friendly and a gentlemen. He's the highlight of Lace. How this place stays in business is beyond me. I'd repeat if I had a good experience, but after dropping almost $400 for tips, beers, and dances, I expected a bit more in the way of satisfaction.
