One of my ATF strip clubs even though I'm not a huge fan of them overall. Nice but not too nice, clean enough, great drink prices/cover, plenty of parking, friendly staff and doormen. My #1 choice to go to when a gal pal begs me to take her to a strip club. My only complaint is that each dancer only gets one song onstage at a time.

Very nice inside, located in a bad area but well lit and tight security. The ladies are all top notch as is the service; but it simply is too clean cut for my taste. Strip bars should have a bit of raunch to them to me and this is simply too clean, too nice, too vanilla.

Hob Nobs Coffee House

I have been hearing about this place from friends for a while and have never stopped in. I had a business meeting and my associate suggested we conduct it at hob Nobs and I agreed. Parrking was a bit of a pain and I had to circle the block twice to finally find a street spot 1 block South but made my appointment on time at noon. I was immediatly impressed with the building, interior and exterior decor and general ambiance. I met my associate at a comfortable front room table and ordered a black tea. I found it pleasantly unusual that they had live entertainment (singer/guitarist) on a Tuesday at noon. After my business was completed and I parted with my associate I looked around the place and enjoyed what appeared to be a revolving art exhibition, browsed the food selections & menu and decided that this would be my new meeting place for casual business & social engagements.

I love this place! The vibe is very New York...leather booths, Frank singing, professional waiters.  The menu and wine list are exceptional and even though there is a great variety to the menu I just am stuck on their Chilean Sea Bass which is out of this world. An excellent date place!

Tito's Tire Shop  

Category: Tires

5 star rating

I met Tito when I needed one new tire for my Nissan 350Z he hooked me up in 5 minutes for less than half retail price. Later he really styled me with 4 new tires on custom rims for LESS THAN HALF of what they would cost me elsewhere. Then I needed new brakes and again the cost was half of what my dealer quoted me and they were done while I waited.

Then a month ago I ate the clutch again (I drive the 6 speed roadster hard) and was facing a nearly $2,000 repair since the engine, tranny and exhaust all had to be removed and my dealer told me it would take about a week to get done. Not only did Tito get this very complicated repair done in two days, at half the dealer estimate he gave me a FREE loaner while the work was getting done!

I will never take my car to any other shop!! Tito rocks!

Moria Sushi is just a two block walk down the street for me so it couldn't get any easier for me to get to but I'd drive quite a distance to enjoy their excellent food, warm reception & service and contemporary decor.
