80/100 SW score
Great value on the right night Hit this place on a Tuesday and got some solid deals - $10 dances and 2-for-1 specials made it worth the trip. Parking lot was packed though, had to circle around a few times. The place has that neighborhood dive feel but the drinks are cheap and the girls are friendly.
60/100 SW score
Not fancy but gets the job done Went here with some buddies expecting more of an upscale spot but this is definitely more dive bar than gentlemen's club. The recent renovations help but it's still pretty basic inside. Drinks were ridiculously cheap which was nice, and some dancers were cool while others kept it strictly business.
50/100 SW score
Rough around the edges This place fits the biker crowd it attracts - loud, gritty, and not particularly clean. The two stages keep things moving but don't expect much privacy in those booths. Parking is a nightmare on busy nights and the whole place could use another round of updates.
