the ultimate strip club list

a guy's guide to strip clubs

Very quiet. Only 3 girls that I saw. And 4 or 5 customers. Only saw 2 of the girls dancing. Beers were reasonable, and it was a good place to sit down for a while. One of the dancers came and spoke to me for about 10 minutes - but was friendly, not pushy. when I said no to a dance, she still hung around for a while.

I came in because I had a free pass. Wouldn't come in again unless I got another free pass. I suppose that about sums the place up for me.

This is one of those places where one night it can be great, the next a complete disaster. Management does not get to involved with the dancer's business, so from the vibe, it pretty obvious you can find what you are looking for no matter what it is. The talent level is mediocre, but they will try their best to make you feel at home. Drink prices were lower than other places on Bourbon, so it;s not a bad place to suck back some cold one's before moving on or going home. A full VIP is 250 cash, while 90 bucks will get you three dances in a more private setting that have the potential for being memorable.

During a recent trip to the French Quarter, a few friends and myself stopped in to see what the place was like. We could tell by the looks from the outside that this club was not one of the "higher class" clubs. The people both inside & out were not very well kept! Some of the dancers appeared to be strung out on some kind of drug. Needless to say, our total time in the club was maybe 5 minutes. I would not recommend this club.

Stiletto's is basically a hole in the wall located on Bourbon Street. In fact, this club has changed names so many times in the past year I can not recall what it was once called.

Admission costs $10.00; however, be aware that the club gives away free passes all the time and they sometimes will let a parton in for free on a slow night. Inside there is only one stage and typically there are around 5-10 girls working. The girls are average to below average with most sporting tatoos. Most are friendly and willing to sit with you and chat; however, be aware, they will ask you for dances sooner or later. Speaking of dances, they cost $20.00 and $40.00 for the VIP section, which is just a small room across from the stage seperated from the main room by a curtain. Drinks are expensive as with most clubs post Hurricane Katrina. A beer will cost you $8.00 on up with mixed drimnks $12.00 on up. One last thing, this club is small and dark. I would recommend this to tourists when you get bored with going to the more known clubs, such as Rick's Cabaret, or if you want a okay club experience with few girls hassling you for dances. Even though it is damp and dark, it was an okay time.
