Decided to try this place on a whim. No sooner than I had sat at the bar, the hustle began. Can't the girls let you at least take your coat off and get a drink first? Anyways... Drinks here are pricey for their size and the amount of booze. (I paid $8 for a *very* small Jack 'n Coke.) If you sit at the bar, you're expected to tip the girls as they come by; the girls do a dance behind the bar and then walk on the bar for tips.

Most of the girls want you to buy them a drink. The problem with this is that it'll cost you $20 a drink. They also have some kind of $100 drink you can buy them, but I can't imagine who would drop a hundred for a drink, especially in those small high ball / shot glasses... (It must not be popular, because no one seemed to know what it was.) There were ~three bartenders working. I had to repeat my order several times, though this seems to be a strip club norm. Since you're sitting *at* the bar, I'd expect the bartenders to be more attentive and interactive. Bar aside, I didn't come here for booze...

There were some 8-10's at the Goddess, but the vast majority were 4-7. I kept getting hustled by a very grabby five, who was damn near impossible to dislodge. No means "go away." Far, far away. I'm cool with touching with permission (and that goes both ways), so when that edict is violated, I'm pretty put off. Maybe some guys like to be clawed, but not me. This was a big departure from other clubs I've visited where the contact is pretty minimal until you're "engaged."
