On November 30, 2023, my sister was drugged with fentanyl while working at this establishment. Yesterday, December 1st, marked two years since she died, and I'm sharing this to warn anyone who works here or considers visiting. What we know from her case is that she was drugged inside the club. There was speculation that it came from a customer, but it could just as easily have come from someone she worked with. Several dancers chose to stay silent afterward, and some seemed more focused on protecting themselves than telling the truth. Do not assume staff or other dancers will protect you. What's even worse is this: Management and security never called the police. Not once. This was confirmed during the investigation. When she collapsed, security locked the place down, refusing to let people in or out for at least an hour. I was told a dancer even had Narcan in her locker, but security wouldn't allow her to access it. Imagine someone's life on the line--and management blocking the one thing that could've saved her. Somehow, she was eventually transported to the hospital. To this day, no one can tell me how she got there or who took her. The hospital released her within hours--confused, drugged, and alone. She was sent home in that condition. She died alone later that same day. Her boyfriend was working out of town when he got word of it all. He tried checking in, realized something was wrong, and begged for a wellness check. It took hours for anyone to actually open the door. By then, she was already gone. This was one of the worst experiences of my life, and what makes it even harder is knowing how many people failed her: - Club management who didn't call the police - Security who blocked access to help - Dancers who hid information - A hospital that released a woman poisoned with fentanyl - An entire environment that treats human beings--especially women--as disposable I'm sharing this because there are real risks working in places like this. If something happens to you, do not expect this establishment to protect you. Do not expect staff to put your safety first. Do not expect police to care either--this industry is treated like a grey zone, where women don't get the same protection or urgency as anyone else. My sister deserved better. No one deserves to die the way she did--surrounded by negligence, silence, and people too afraid or too selfish to do the right thing. If you're considering working here or spending money here, understand this: If something goes wrong, you are on your own. The lack of action, transparency, and basic humanity from the people in charge contributed to the worst outcome imaginable. Establishments that profit from vulnerable workers have a responsibility to protect them. Based on my family's experience, this place failed that responsibility in every way that mattered. read more

If you care about your safety, avoid this place. On our first visit, we saw a dancer get assaulted, and when she begged management to call the police, they refused and just told the attackers to leave. Minutes later, the same man assaulted my husband. Management checked on him but kept us inside until the other group was gone -- and still never involved the police. The whole place felt chaotic, unsafe, and completely unprotected. Shady behavior everywhere, no real oversight, and leadership that seemed more interested in hiding problems than dealing with them. This isn't just a bad business -- it's a dangerous environment. Stay away. FYI. Cover price is 50pp and 100pp VIP ONLY full nude if you pay the 100pp cover. The waiters are really nice and only a couple of the dancers are good. I do feel bad for them as their bouncers are not there to protect them they are just there for $$. Stay away and save your money. read more

It looked promising. Exterior looks nice. Free parking. Well lit parking. So far okay. I arrived around midnight Saturday night. Doorman said that the door fee was $55 regular or $100 vip. He said that you get access to the more private VIP room. I assumed that meant that the girls would be constantly asking for money. So I went for the regular. My usual plan at these places is to sit close to the stage. Tip each girl reasonably, $5 to $15. So I spend a few dollars but not huge. But that is assuming that I am enjoying the view. The club is billed as all nude. But the girls on the stage didn't even get topless! And I was not really attracted to the ones I saw. I guess you have to go to the VIP room for a nude show. But probably costs a fortune. So I just left after 10 minutes. I guess there just aren't any good clubs in Texas anymore. I was at a club and in Oklahoma City just a few months ago and it was outstanding. read more

Great service best after hours in AUSTIN hands down! Great vibes ask for Paul or Kevin 5 stars!

I got a 2 song lap dance and the girls stole all the 100$'s out of my wallet after I was told it was 25$ a song. I left to go buy a drink and noticed my wallet was raided. when I confronted the manager "Rich" he gave me a business card and apologized like that would help... I confronted the girl and all the sudden she didn't understand English. only come here if you want to get ripped off for mediocre women. read more

The food was ok at first, I ordered some chicken tenders for me and my friend to share. I was halfway through the food and came across a short thick hair in the breading. My friend told me that her food was cold when she bit into it. Bartender was super rude, and had an attitude problem while I was looking at the drink menu. It was kinda sketchy in there and I didn't enjoy myself. My friend ended up getting sick half an hour there. The dancers kept pushing us to spend more money than we wanted on them. They eventually got fed up and left with an attitude. Come here if you want, but trust me babe, it ain't what you pay for. read more

I never bothered yo even enter this place due to the ridiculous parking fee that starts at $30. Now you know why the parking lot is always almost empty. Cabarets today are becoming extinct due to greed and rude employees. read more

This place is the spot to be if you want to have a good time. Classy place with the best managers in town. The girls are the first-rate, and NJ NNEKA know how to keep the place popping . read more

Seemed like a good club, but watch how they upsell you. $50 for VIP. When you ask to go to VIP they give you 10 minutes then tell you that you owe $500 for your visit which would only be 20 more minutes. You are made to feel that you already owe them and need to pay. So I did regrettably. The bill suddenly becomes $700. My card was already run at that point. I made the mistake of signing. The girl spent most of her time on the phone. Don't sign or pay anything until they are clear of what your posting for. $700 plus tip for a girl on her phone. Manager cared not. read more

Everything needs improvement , bathrooms were nasty as hell. The bottle girl Rai was rude AF, nasty attitude.. The first time I came we were up charged for everything and they keep pushing VIP on everyone there. VIP at this place isn't even worth it. Horrible customer service. Good came out dry and cold. read more

$9/bottle of water that you didn't order. BYOB isn't on the website at all, neither is the sliding scale cover charge base on the time of day. Not a great vibe for out of towners. Far from downtown. Poor floor layout with tight walkways, was shoved by a dancer coming into work while we were trying to leave. read more

Came for my Bachelor Party. Showed up a little before midnight, one of the managers, Connor, sold us a "VIP" booth for $100. The place had about 5 other people. Connor told us the place would pick up around 2:00 am since the "other" girls would come around that time from the other clubs. Connor also tried to sell us "VIP" wristbands for an additional $25 which allowed us to have private dances in a smaller room. There were about 4 dancers cycling through. It's about 1:00 am now and only one dancer has come up to our "VIP" booth. The club is still as slow as it was when we first got there. It's about 2:00 am now and not a single dancer has walked up to our "VIP" booth. The club hasn't picked up at all. There are about 3 dancers cycling through. Another 4 dancers are standing off to the side, one of them is falling asleep on a chair. It's about 2:30 am at this point and still nothing. Not a single dancer has walked up to our "VIP" booth. So I decided to walk up to the nearest manager and ask why this was happening. The manager didn't give us his name, but he explained to us that "the dancers are shy". I am not making this up, I am quoting a cabaret manager, that his dancers are too shy to walk up to a group of males that paid extra to sit in the "VIP" area. The manager gets two dancers to go to our "VIP" booth. One of the dancers seemed either drunk or on the verge of falling asleep. They proceed to give me each a dance, which lasted around 2 minutes. After the dances were over, they told me that each dance was $25. So, not only did we pay $100 to sit in the "VIP" area and not have any dancers walk up to us for about two and half hours, I then got robbed by two dancers that were forced to go up to us. If you have actually read this entire, honest review, i would not recommend it. It just feels bad getting robbed and not even being an apology by management. But I guess rats aren't sorry for stealing. We should have known something was wrong with this place the second we pulled up to the club and the entire parking lot was empty around peak times. read more

Everytime I come here I never want to leave! The energy is amazing the dancers were the best and friendly!

I came here for my friends bachelor party and it was horrible we were greeted by the manager who at first seemed nice and outgoing but turned out to be a snake Convinced us after paying 15$ each for the entry fee he convinced us to pay an additional $100 dollars ($18 dollars per person) and having no attention for a good I'm gonna say 2 1/2 hours with no attention and one of the dancers trying to sell us a bottle of tequila ($140!?) we complain to the bouncer about our issues within 10 minutes we had 2 girls come up and give my friend a lap dance (after they had not Informed us of the 25$ per lap dance by the way) we left I'm embarrassed that we didn't see the signs as soon as we entered the EMPTY parking lot Don't come here XTC was a WAYYYY better experience read more

This place knows how to party. Visited BARE last weekend and had a blast. What else is better then BYOB and sexy ladies

Lol y'all weird for having a guy help wash peoples hands in the mens restroom but not having someone do the same in the girls. My boyfriend politely told dude that he didn't want him to help wash his hands but he appreciates it and even tipped him. Weird dude tells him to get his tip back and when he does he starts tripping? Lmao weird as f*ck. Then he got kicked out for trying to be chill lol y'all WEIRD. It was a fun night though, hella fine girls, would've been perfect without that incident. read more

Don't waste your time or money. I went there last night for the Tuesday special and was pressured into getting a VIP band. In the club there were maybe 5 other guys and about 10 dancers at 11pm. The dancers did not take their clothes off while dancing on the main floor. Most of the dancers were just chatting with each other or playing with their phones. Tried a VIP dance and the dancer just stood in front of me moving a bit and didn't take anything off until the end of the song. She asked if I wanted another dance and I said no thanks worst dance I've ever had. I walked out about midnight feeling like I'd been ripped off. Hopefully they go out of business soon but my advice is go to XTC instead. read more

This club is one of the finest Gentlemen's clubs I have been too. The women are beautiful, staff is amazing & the management is beyond helpful. Also they are open until 6am on the weekends which is great, when leaving the Bars at 2am. A place everyone should stop by too read more

WORST CLUBBBB EVER.This is the worst club ever. Bought a VIP booth for 500. NOBODY was there some manager told us it picks up around 3am. I left after 5 min. Please nobody go here. WORST CLUB EVERRRRR read more

First and last time we will be here. $30 before 12 and way more after. Sexy girls ? Lol nahhh. Unbelievable how they charged $5 per cup of tap water which we didn't find out until after the water cups were set on the table. Much smaller venue inside than what you'd expect from the outside. Loud music is expected but this was just way too loud, hard to converse at all. The establishment is advertised as an all nude club but once you get there you'll find dancers are not nude and you have to pay the dancers extra to basically have a nude dance. Just not good business overall. read more

Absolutely love this club! The women are beautiful, the staff is nice, the decor is lonely, great service, very clean and it's BYOB! Definitely will recommend this club! read more
