  Uh... Does anyone else find it incredibly gross that this is a club with a bunch of half naked women rubbing up on things with their diseases, and a restaurant too?
  
  Seriously? That's not a health code violation or something?
  
  They had upskirt videos on their myspace page for the "restaurant" for chrissakes.

  I give 3 and 1/2 stars to the food and staff knowledge of drinks.  A man ordered a cognac and had to instruct the bartender on warming the drink after the bartender was pouring his cognac into a shot glass.  I could tell the patron was a little irritated as he was a seasoned drinker and felt that any establishment that serves cognac should know how to serve it.  The food is great and the ambiance is perfectly romantic.
  
  I had a glass of Kendal Jackson Sauvignon Blanc and asked if it was a freshly opened bottle; the bartender offered to open a fresh bottle for me.  The wine was not as cold as it should have been, but I was happy to have a freshly opened bottle.  
  
  From 3-6 is happy hour.  2nd well drink or tap beer is $1 and appetizers (rolls or ribs only) are $3.  Pleasant surprise, the first bartendar didn't share this information with us.  We ordered the crab rolls which were SO tasty!  I grabbed a paper menu so I could tell you what was in it: Steamed crab, rice vermicelli, mint leaves and lettuce, wrapped in rice paper served with Vietnamese traditional plum sauce and flavored w/roasted peanut.  The sauce was more like a peanut sauce and was great!  There were 4 good sized rolls, ingredients were fresh, and I probably would have fought over the last roll but my boyfriend was paying.  Only complaint, as most people who eat any crab or lobster have, is that there needed to be more crab!
  
  UPDATE - The first time I went to the club with my friend and there was a security detector.  I just went back a week ago and they now have a VIP room (not sure how to get in...but, we ended up in there).  The crowd was 21 -45 in age.  The music was hip hop and rap - a true blast to party there.  Lot's of single men with their game faces on lots of girls in skin revealing clothes.  I think I even saw someone give a guy a lap dance in a chair...one girl climbed on the back of a booth and was dancing only to be taken down by security.  The crowd was very diverse, asian, african american, caucasian, and latin.  Booths everywhere if you are more of an observer.  Dancing...well you can get as freaky as you feel comfortable.  The Sheraton is right next door if you need to sober up before going home...because the PD are outside waiting.  There is a dress code.
  
  All of the food is amazing; though I am picky about oysters and sushi...so I am staying away from them.
