The main problem with DiCarlos appears to be the puritanical rules and/or local laws. There is no nudity and pretty much no touching (either way), even during dances. The girls told me there is a law against them requesting a price up front, hence, they dance for a song and you tip whatever you want. I tipped $5 if the dance was ok, $10 if the dancer and performance was hot. The girls I tipped $10 always came back to me and hung out quite a bit and they gave a better dance second time around. You could get away with tipping less than $5 but I doubt the girl would come back to you after a $3 tip.

The layout of this club is really poor. The stage is awkward, and desperately needs to be moved/remodeled. It is difficult to watch the act from the seating area because of the angle and what I think was a wrought iron fence or railing (!?). A few seats at the bar face the stage, but that's it. The girls go topless for song 2 on stage but if you go up there to tip, they cover up per local law.

All that said, I stayed for 3 hours, met a couple hotties I really liked, and spent $180. But I drank like a king, bought multiple dances from my two favorites, and bought a couple drinks for the girls too.
