Review from Emily G.
9/2/2011
Some helpful tips regarding basic etiquette at Cheetah's:
1. When coming with a significant other:
- If she calls dibs on a stripper, let it go, she's hers. Don't steal your girlfriend (or boyfriend's) stripper if he/she claimed her first. Its not cool.
- Do NOT, by any circumstances, use the money you gave to your girlfriend to get a lap dance for yourself. Once you hand over stripper money, you lose your right to claim it back. It's for a good cause, so deal with it.
2. When coming here with a group:
- General admission is free seating, VIP is $25/person or a bottle purchase (~$130). There is one bouncer who is in charge of the wait-list for the tables. Ignore him. No offense, but he's kind of a douche. If you want a table, make besties with people who already have tables so they will gladly warn you when they are leaving so you can swoop in and get it.
- If anyone in your group of friends have never been to a strip club before, you are required (by Bro Code) to buy them their first lap dance. It's only the courteous thing to do so don't be a cheapo. They are $10 each for personal or table dancing.
3. When approaching a stripper
- Apparently the 'southern bell' types do not like to be interrupted while shoving their nipples up to someone's eyes. So, wait your turn, approach them when you are done and just point them at where to go once they become available.
4. If hover-handing is not your type of thing:
- Then go get a body shot from the passing-by shot girls. I saw way more action from a shot girl than from any other girl at the club. For the sake of keeping my Yelp account classy, I won't go into detail.... but you'll have to trust me on this one.
5. If you are too smart to pay covers:
- Ask some of your buddies (aka random ppl on the street) to give you their used ticket stub from the GT game that night. Hand that in at the front door and you will get in for free.
Finally, get drunk... but not too drunk. Mostly because 1) You wont appreciate it as much if your vision is blurry and 2) Fights do break out here and you need to be sober enough to get the F away from the broken glass.
Follow these tips and you will be on your way to a successful strip cub visit.Listed in: Fuzzy Memories

I can't tell you how badly I want to post a picture. Of course, photography is not allowed inside the club. I guess they'd let you take pictures in the restaurant. I haven't tried that yet.
Yes, there's a restaurant. Alluvia is actually really good. Awesome, even. Be prepared to drop a few bills if you come here for a full evening of dinner and dancing (not that patrons are allowed to dance). If you're really feeling like a baller, check out the Lofts. Think VIP room, but bigger, better, and more expensive. Of course, they have a VIP room too.
You might be asking what a gay guy is doing at a female strip club. Drinking. Talking. Entertaining straight friends. Mostly just going to say I go. The music is pretty good for a strip club AND they've even been known to play "Tardy For The Party" just for me.
Oh, add stalking celebrities to my list of reasons to come here. Kim from The Real Housewives of Atlanta did in fact work here (hence my song choice) and I met Big Poppa at the bar a few years ago. I've seen him a few more times since then... along with some real celebs.
Free admission after any sporting event. Just bring your ticket stub.Listed in: Adult Entertainment

Review from Emilia L.
8/8/2011
Came here on a whim Friday night to continue a double date. I had been wanting to go to The Cheetah for a while now. However, I am sad to say I was disappointed. I was shocked to see there was a lack of poles. As a result, the girls were just swaying back and forth on the stages alongside the bars and at the front and occasionally booty-clapping. They looked miserable and clearly didn't want to be there. For some of the more upbeat songs, a few of the girls would smile and dance but for the most part, I saw swaying.
There was a good mix of girls -- younger and older, fake and real, different ethnicities, sizes and looks to them. I also noticed a few of the girls here had butt implants.
At one point, all the strippers working that night -- all 70 of them -- came out in black "formalwear" (long black dresses with plunging necklines and high slits) and stood on the stage. A DJ came on and encouraged us patrons to select girls to dance on our tables. At the end, all but four had been chosen to dance and I felt bad for those that were left. Reminded me of being picked last for kickball or something. Anyway, thought that was a bit bizarre. I have no idea if they do that all the time.
I received a lap dance from a blonde that was one of the more attractive dancers in the club. I didn't catch her name, but you will know who I am referring to because she has some of the nicest assets out of all of them (not natural, but nice nonetheless). Tasha also gave the boys at our table a lap dance. She was very respectful and didn't touch either of them (seeing as we, the girlfriends, were there too). I am pretty certain that these two girls are the top earners there just due to their nice figures alone.
Drinks were super strong and pretty pricey. We had Tara as our server and she was on top of things. One of the shot girls walking around was pretty pushy about selling shots to us. They are $10 for a body shot but $20 if you want a topless body shot. From what I observed, she straddles you, does a whole show with the test tube shot (um, you can imagine what I mean here) and then moans loudly for show. Kind of overkill if you ask me. Whatever floats your boat, I guess.
All in all, it was a good night at The Cheetah but it didn't live up to the hype for me. -

Went here with my boyfriend. I take pole dance classes so I was hoping to learn a few more moves. Got there all excited but then there wasn't any poles. The strippers barely even move. It was a week day so maybe weekends are better I hope so at least.
I had always heard the Cheetah was so awesome best looking strippers etc... Nope not so much they were eh... meh... bleh
I suggest if you are looking for a fun strip club go to the Pink Pony. Much better entertainment and I think they try harder. Plus the girls look more exotic there to me. -

In an attempt to exude class, The Cheetah takes a lot of the fun out of adult entertainment. It's expensive to get in, but the dearth of poles means that most of the dancing isn't too different from what you would find at any frat party--assuming that frat parties included full frontal nudity. While I appreciate the effort to have scores of above-average women working at the same time, I feel like I'm in the strip club equivalent of back row seats at a Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert. There are so many strippers, but the music is average and they're all kept at a distance (unless you buy a dance, but even those are pretty hands-off).
Judging by the clientele (lots of suits) this place is frequented primarily by fellas who feel good about being at a strip club that's known for being upscale. Maybe I'm in the minority, but the seedy, raunchier places are more entertaining.
The Cheetah has class, but it lacks...soul. -

If you want Penthouse/Vivid type girls. All BEYOND beautiful. Who know it and act like it. Waste your money here. You better have a good $2K-$5K to drop if you want any girl. (Back in my Dot Com days I'd drop $2K in a club and not think twice. Even that was not enough for this place).
If you want to go out with buddies, have a GOOD TIME, with REAL GIRLS, who are nice, will spend time with you, are not PLASTIC FAKE BOOBS with FAKE attitudes who all act like they'd rather be elsewhere.....pick a better club.
Like what was said in another review. "The strippers barely move". They don't dance, they don't do anything but want you to worship them .
If you are looking for a *FUN* night out, skip this place. -

I ate food at a strip club and lived to tell about it.
Hell, I actually very much enjoyed it.
The menu is Southern inspired, with entrees like buttermilk fried chicken with mashed potatoes, pork chops, and for the manliest of men, big ass steaks. I needed nourishment but wasn't super hungry so went with a range of sides: the asparagus, creamed spinach, and cheese grits. The asparagus was perfectly cooked (a serious feat), the spinach was creamy deliciousness, and the grits.... oh, those grits! Rivaling Rosebud's, they were the perfect mix of gritty, creamy, and cheesy. I absolutely loved each of the sides I tasted and would be stoked to return for a full meal at Alluvia.
Oh, and there are boobies. -

I was unimpressed. It's pretentious, crowded, and tries too hard. I've heard the restaurant is good, but the strippers are boring. Maybe it's because I am a woman, but I want to see a show. Not some random hot girl shakin her ass in my face. Where is the performance? Where are the poles? Where is the talent? It doesn't exist here. It may have the hottest girls but that's it. Pink Pony is better.

In my formative years, I spent a lot of time running around the wonderful city of Atlanta. When in Atlanta, it is requirement that one listens to Jermaine Duprey as he is the king of Atlanta Hip Hop.
Once night a buddy of mine (We will call him Smadam to protect him from his gf) and I went out on the town. On our way to a local bar, we were blasting " Welcome to Atlanta where the players play and we ride on dem things like everyday... big beats hit streets see gangsta's rolling...."
Anyway, JD recommends the Cheetah. He has a whole song about it. Well let me tell you, JD has poor taste in nudie bars.
This place was a huge let down. Without getting into the details, lets just say I have been to nudie bars in MINNESOTA that were ten times more entertaining. MINNESOTA !
Haiku !
Wow this place is cramped.
250 for VIP ?
Lets go get hammered.

I've been coming to this place for over 5 years now, maybe longer. Day shift only though. I've been a couple of times at night and during special events, and if you don't arrive early or come in during the day and stay into the night you will NOT find a seat. I used to also love that if you made a reservation at Alluvia (their fabulous restaurant. Try the Chicken Piccatta or Lamb Chops) you could gain free entry instead of paying the $10 cover charge. I don't think they do that anymore though, but you can get in with your ticket stub if you went to a game that same day.
I am a girl that is not afraid of Skripper clubs, yes I said skripper like stripper. lol This place in particular has always been good to me. When I worked with a particularly large popular company we always had our regional meetings here (I can't say their name because they don't want to be associated with these establishments) and i've been able to visit them time and time again with the company I work for now as well.
I have to say the girls during the day aren't the most glamourous, most day shifts aren't, but they are some of the coolest chicks you'll ever meet. You guys don't care about a mediocre cool chick though in this kind of place. lol There are some attractive females for the gentlemen though, the female waitstaff as well. I would recommend possibly coming in during the day on a Friday with friends or by yourself, take a seat at the bar, order a stiff drink (or cold beer) from Paul (PAUL ROCKS!!!!) and relax. I can't say that I haven't been in and not been disappointed with the vibe or even been bored, but there have been far more enjoyable times than bad at this place.
If you're a girl who hasn't been to this type of club and you're feeling a bit iffy, don't. The ladies here are very friendly and are actually more appreciative of those who come in with an open mind and relaxed attitude. I have to point out I am not gay (although I have absolutely no problem with that at all) but I look at this place as any other bar honestly. Their staff just happens to become nude at random times. lol
O, and you have to try their food. Alluvia serves up some great eats. I mean anything from a club sandwich, philly cheese steak, sliders, personal pizza, to a filet mignon, veal, and chicken.Listed in: You're in my hood now sucka!!

The Cheetah is the city's most upscale strip club. It's pretty much the opposite of the Clermont Lounge.
For example, the Cheetah serves good food. You should never, ever eat anything at the Clermont.
The Cheetah strippers are young and attractive (if not entirely natural). The Clermont strippers are old and fat.
The Cheetah has bathroom attendants. The Clermont has a trough.
You get the point. If you want an evening of classy nakedness, go to The Cheetah. And stop at the ATM on your way. -

The top "talent" in Atlanta used to be split between the Cheetah and the Gold Club. Once the Gold Club imploded, the prices for everything dropped and the Cheetah landed the best of the rest of the girls. It's definitely the best strip club in Atlanta, the others pale in comparison.
I used to have to go to the Cheetah constantly for work (no, not kidding). There was an instance where I had to spend 20 hours here over a span of two days. Sitting around at 9 AM with the dancers drinking coffee at the bar with their husbands and kids will break you of ever wanting to go to a strip club again. Trust me.
Things to know in Larry King ellipse fashion: bring lots of money, ATM feels will crush you...everyone in the place expects to be tipped...drinks are going to set you back more than dances in the long run...good spot for celeb and in-town athlete spotting...a convention goer's specialty...most crowded during religious conventions, according to one of the dancers. -

Came here for brunch since I'd heard that the food here is actually good. I didn't exactly believe that a strip club, upscale or otherwise, would provide decent, much less good, food, but I was proven wrong. I'm not really one for strip clubs to begin with, so I'm rating the Cheetah mostly as a restaurant with very *active* live entertainment.
We came around noon, and were pleasantly surprised that there was no cover charge, especially since there were still girls dancing around inside. The waiter was incredibly courteous and helpful as we asked her about the food choices for their brunch. Keep in mind that all the brunch menu items are $15, but there's no cover so it's really not bad, especially since it's good food as I'm about to describe.
I got the custom omelet with smoked salmon, sausage, bacon, swiss, and mushrooms, and it was great. Having both sausage and bacon, I expected it to be greasy all over, but somehow it wasn't so, and the flavors just meshed together with the smoked salmon (cooked great by the way) to create a tasty omelet with melted cheese in between it.
As for the ambiance, it was obviously classy and upscale and there were also a lot of TVs for if you weren't particularly interested in watching one of the 3 areas where girls danced. Pretty good experience, albeit a bit pricey, but certainly interesting -

Living in Atlanta and never having been to The Cheetah is like living in Paris without ever going to The Louvre. Or perhaps it's more in line with visiting Dublin and missing the Guinness Factory. You get the point.
Cheetah is Atlanta's legendary strip club. I support my claim to this status with a reminder that Jay Z raps about the club. This upscale, classy (can I say that about a strip club? Yes.) establishment is loaded with young attractive strippers. Buckhead business men love it, visiting men love it - basically any guy with an abundance of dollar bills will be in paradise. I went with my ex-boyfriend and his friends for a birthday (figuring I could keep an eye on them all) and actually had a fun time. No, I am not anxious to return, but I will recommend it as a one time unique experience everyone living in Atlanta should have. Just sit back, relax, and laugh. And if you are a gentlemen, certainly clean out the atm beforehand. -

A good place to take a date. I happened in by accident. I was walking to the car with my date and she asked what it was. Naturally, I said lets check it out. Turned out to be a good choice. A lot of female customers and the dancers weren't overly aggressive so my date was comfortable. Nice mix of ethnicities, the dancers were friendly and very attractive. This isn't a "hands on" club. A good place for a drink and some eye candy.

The Cheetah may be overly polished, but it hardly trots out ugly women.
they are pretty stunning for the most part and it's a well-run operation.
the smoke can be overwhelming at times.
not sure why they ditched Wine, Women & Thong. that was one of the greatest ideas ever. -

When I think of Cheetah, I dont think of the best strip club in the world, but I think of one of the most consistent and entertaining experiences I ve had. This is definitely Atlanta's best strip club*** (unless you prefer black chicks, in which case, Strokers is king.) Im planning on moving back to Atlanta very soon and cannot wait to visit my favorite establishment in the A. The 10 buck cover is well worth it..
Drinks are reasonable and the girls are hot & Friendly. Its nice and dark inside, and a perfect place to watch some football and ass.
If i had to compare it to another place, Cheetah is like Chipotle... Cheap, Consistent, clean, and damn good. You ll be sure to wanna go again and again! -

Although upscale I prefer the acrobatic pole art of other dancers, here the girls just kinda shimmied around ( no poles..no makin' it rain..lol).... I think I get down more at a Friday night at the club. But I digress (Much like David K. who suggested we hit up the Cheetah) Service was awesome, and trust if you roll in there with a VIP like him you will get treated well. I sampled my friends white cheddar grits, which were awesome, definitely some of the best I've had. The rest of the menu looked awesome as well with most entrees starting around the $15+ mark. There were a fair amount of lady patrons as well, and the bathrooms aren't the dancers locker rooms combined..like some I've been to.

ATMOSPHERE: Been here a few times and it's a really classy place. No poles so if you are looking for more acrobatic entertainment check out Pink Pony or others. Girls are super hot and are diverse not only including race but body type as well ranging from all natural to plastic surgery mayhem. Girls here don't appear tatt'ed up since all tattoos are to be covered with foundation make-up.
FOOD: American food with not very many veggie options as you can imagine but I've tried the mac & cheese which was really good.
PRICES: For girls on stage, receive total of $5 for tops off and $10 for bottoms off. $10 for table/lap dances. $150 for 30 minute VIP plus whatever room rental is at that time if you want more private time. Cover usually $4 during day, $10 night but free with sports ticket stub!
SERVICE: Very good. Waitresses are attentive and dancers don't pressure you into buying anything from them like some other clubs. A doorman walks you into the club to seat you.
PARKING: Valet - $3 plus tip.
CONCLUSION: Nice chill place to hang out with the guys or gals that's more upscale than typical strip clubs. -

This club is very nice club. The ladies are good looking.
The begging from the DJ to "tip" the dancers gets old quick. Even sitting at the bar there was constant pestering from the ladies to move to the VIP room with them ($25 entry plus 300 - 550 hour for the lady). Overall was a good experience if you don't mind saying no a lot.
I thought this place was a good show but has one major drawback. No touching. If all fluff an no stuff is your thing then this is the place for you. Otherwise go to Tampa. -

Unless you drive a Ferrari, wear a Rolex, and flash a roll of hundreds, this place blows. Average guys like me spend our entire paycheck to get in and buy a drink, then hope one of the lovely ladies will stop by and give us a dance. Hope only goes so far. I'd like to think that if a lapdance costs the same for everyone, my money is just as good. I'm wrong. These girls go where the money is, period. I've been twice, waved a couple twenties, smiled, and got rejected by every single girl in the place because it was apparent I didn't have another stack hidden in my pocket. Is it bad when the strippers are too good to take money unless it's the profits of a drug or weapon sale?

In response to Layla G's review about this place I would have to agree that some of the best looking strippers do work there. VIP is definitely pretty lax especially in the couch area to the upper right once you walk in. Although it is pretty pricey you tend to get what you pay for. Much cleaner than other area joints (Mardi Gras, Tattletales, Oasis...) which is a huge plus. As to the food, I prefer the free buffet style presented at The Trapeze, and you definitely get what you pay for there if you catch my drift.

aka "The Spring Street Ballet", The Cheetah is the best strip club in Atlanta. Most of the dancers are perfect 10s and even the shooter girls are top quality. As with most Atlanta clubs, full nudity and alcohol are both on the menu. Fill your wallet with plenty of cash before you get there though. Valet parking, a steep cover charge, and the pricey aggressive girls will drain your account faster than you can realize. If you're entertaining out of towners, this is where you want to take them!

Review from Rob F.

Definitely one of the best adult entertainment clubs in Atlanta, but to get the full experience, you REALLY need to be there at 10 PM. I can't stress it enough. The entire place transformed into what I've always envisioned a strip club should look like. Sometimes, it gets a little crowded, but usually, it's not too much trouble to get a table. They always keep the drinks coming- never had an issue getting served, even when standing. The girls- oh god- the girls! Super hot; best I've seen in Atlanta. Really, the only downside is that there are no poles and they don't do lap dances (only table and floor dances- which is like a lap dance but they aren't on you). The 10:00 show blows all of that away though. Get there around 9:30 and be prepared for fun!

This place has no poles for the ladies. I feel like that goes against the Boobie Bible (Book One: Genetits). Yes, it's relatively clean, but I actually think it is just waaaaay too sterile of a strip club, and I'm a hetero chick! But then again, perhaps my (long, stiff) yardstick that I measure titty bars by was formed in Vegas. I'm not a big fan of Sin City, but I feel like they at least got the nekkidness down pat. I was just bored here. Had much more fun at the Pony.

Reminded me of something straight out of Sopranos, but I don't think the bathrooms in the Bada Bing have attendants, so perhaps they deserve an extra point for that. The drinks were good and I felt like I was at a Vegas show and not a seedy strip joint. Funny enough we saw a coworker inside so I don't think this is the spot you should go if you want to keep a low profile. It's pretty popular.
