The place seems to have potential. Like the layout and if the clientele is anything like the staff ... HOT! Yet, I went on a Monday and it was dead. No reflection on the place, but it does not seem worth going on Mondays. Boyz are spent by then.

I had a blast

Thursday night $1 beers and go-go boys, pool tables and great guys. Nothing but a good time.
