I went for a glass of late night wine... the bouncer was sweet and very protective. Awesome waitress that won’t ignore you. And lovely girls for viewing I live next door. Nice place to come to.

Food is delicious. The dancers are kind and come in all ethnicities. They’re rotate a lot and you get to see new girls more often. Each girl has their own personality which creates a little something for everyone. It’s nice that’s it’s not completely nude because it leaves space for a little imagination. Private dances are priced nicely and can go from 10 minutes to more than an hour.I highly recommend coming during a lunch shift it you want to relax a bit. If you want a full blown experience come at night!

We were in town for few days and we looked up for Gentlemen club in dc area and we found this place and we went there. It was one of the most terrible customer service I ever seen . At door the security guy was nice he asked us for id and if we need smoking or non smoking area . I told him smoking and he sat us .it went south from there we had to wait 15 minutes sitting there for a server to show up and finally she showed up and she was rude yelling at us and asking us to show our id again , mind you we ( everyone asked at door for id before we get in .I WOULDNT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE .

Love the lightings and setup. The food is great with a large selection. Girls very seductive yet classy. At this location they have a smokers section with a stage in there as well. Last but not least and my favorite, these guys actually have massage therapist which to me seems like The ultimate gentlemans experience

Good, large portions of the food. The drinks are relatively cheap for such a place. The ladies are pleasant and you get some real gems in there. The owner introduced himself and he is very cool.

Poor customer service. Waited over an hour for a dance and no one would give me updates. Finally, the young lady that I wanted a dance from came up to me and said she felt bad. The waitress was rude because she didn’t even apologize and kind of through the money back at me. She didn’t even come check up on me for the wait time and she knew I was waiting for an hour. Management wouldn’t event come talk to me to make me feel about the situation l. Felt bad for the young lady because she was missing out on money. This place could do a lot better with communication. I’m not sure if I would go back or not.

I cant eat around naked people. Other than that its a cool place, one of my wives work here so be nice. Also, I heard they do offer one of the best burgers around this town. Very outside of the typical beef Pattie they have a special called fur burgers. Not really as shaving is part of the dress code.

You sit there in a cramped seat, back to back with a stranger. Then on stage, bored rythmless strippers sway side to side for 3 minutes then walk around with buckets for tips. Its hard to talk to your party when bored girls with buckets bother you constantly with a fake smile every 3 minutes. My friends love this place. For me its a money suck and incredibly boring and unnecessarily expensive.

Yes, its a strip club, BUT, the food is amazing! I got a steak special that was really 3 normal restaurant portions, and everything was great! Steak seasoned perfectly, big shrimp, grilled asparagus.....no room for dessert, and Im a big eater. Server very attentive, weve been back for the food, well, at least I have. Boyfriend says its for the food, wink,wink

They don’t serve liquor which was a major disappointment. You can order beer and wine though. The food portions are huge. The dancers perform for about 2-3 minutes (very lazily overall) then walk around the restaurant to collect tips. They aren’t fully nude, but they take their tops off; it was a very interesting experience.

Review №25

The place used to be a lot better. The quality of the entertainers has gone way down. Few actually dance anymore...they just kinda sway to the music and expect to be admired. The food is below average bar-food, but does not suck. The prices are reasonable.

The night was great food was good. I will say whoever was the manger of duty was the worst and I will express my concerns to the BBB. I was robbed for money as I tried to play music by a drunk female in the bar. If it wasn’t for security/bouncer I would have not gotten my money back. The manager on duty witness the whole situation and didn’t not even try to step in or say I’m sorry here is a drink on us he just looked at me like I was the problem and told a waitress that I need to put my money away. I would give this place zero stars but I can’t and I give it 2 just because of the bouncer that handled the situation like a professional.

This was my first strip club experience. I was in town for some business, and I wanted to experience it on my own. I thoroughly enjoyed myself here. The girls are sweet and sexy. The wait staff is just okay. I had two different servers and they didnt interact with me much at all. My favorite dancer was by far Rachel. I received an amazing private dance from her. If she is still here next time, Im in town, I will definitely be hitting her up.

Review №45

Not the kind of place to go alone. Let me inform everyone who looks up this place that there are no lap dances here. This is basically the more skin shown version of hooters. If you go alone youll more likely be ignored by the dancers even if you give them cash. I was stupid enough to get 40 dollars out in cash in the hopes that one of the girls would want to do a lap dance then come to find out by the bartender that there were no lap dances. they have whats called private rooms but there far from private its just a another bar on the other side of the restaurant filled with other guys watching the same girls dancing which doesnt make any sense and plus you have to pay money to basically go to the other side of the bar see the Same girls doing the same thing. So totally a stupid set up. But the staff and bartenders are nice and that I will say and very attentive and honest.

First of all... I dont if it was because the time of day (4pm on a sunday) but we had impeccable 5 star service. I freaking timed it. They came around to check on us every 2.7 minutes. Like seriously. They were so nice it was scary. Scary like that movie Get Out! Black folks get real nervous when white folks are too nice... I went to the back and made it out alive. Ill update this and let you know if I died.The food was a great value. Great prices and solid quality. It hit that perfect equilibrium. Not a fan of the wings becuase they are breaded (light/medium) and I dont like any bread on my wings. The crab cakes were solid. Not the best crabcakes in the history of the world, but they were tasty and had a good price point. The prime rib was perfect. The filet was good too. Youll enjoy the food. Tons of drink and food specials.The girls... Not a lot of diversity. Definitely not a club were you going to see the girls shaking booty and dancing all around, so if you are looking for a high energy strip joint, this is not the place. We were there for the early sunday line up, but you can definitely find a few good looking girls. Funny though, I have never seen so many blondes in the dmv. The music left something to be desired. I dont know about getting a lap dance to Demi Lavato. Just saying. They come around for tips, so you dont have to get up to tip after stuffing your face. Win. Win. Win.

A number of complaints. To start, most of the dancers just stand there and sway to the music, which comes from a juke box, leading to awkward silent dances and poor performances. Second, the private dance is basically jut charging you to sit in a small smoke filled room and watch the exact same thing they just did on stage. Wait staff was friendly, but rarely came to check on us.

Low end place. Did not know it was a strip club until I got there. All liquors are win based. Also just found out they lost their alcohol license. All the women are older.

I went here with a few co-army friends and it is a bit over rated. I didnt care to much for the entertainment.
