Tl;Dr - I mean, if you mess with strip clubs, this is this, that, and a bag of chips. My review is…read moremostly based on casual visits for the lunch buffet, and I didn't get any lap dances. I would assume if I did, they'd be pretty good, haha. This place is pretty legendary in San Francisco, everyone who lives here knows about it. What's particularly noteworthy about the Gold Club beyond their commitment to a classy experience is that they do a $5 buffet that is actually pretty good, where you can kick back and watch some dancers perform. If you aren't the type to get nervous around naked ladies it's a great deal, particularly the fried chicken and the salads with a nice selection of dressings. Drinks aren't too bad either, they really respect your wallet here which is truly unique in the world of stripclubs that basically do everything in their power to separate all your money from that wallet. The girls also I'd say are pretty chill, I'm married and on a look no touch policy and I haven't had anyone be too aggressive with the come-ons, they'll certainly want to sit down and play the hostess cards if you let them but expect to be buying their drinks if they do. Lots of salt daddies in here I would expect would get irritated with those practices but I mean these girls gotta make a living, they not here for free entertainment. So I'll always throw down a few dollars before I leave for whoever is on stage, maybe a few on the table for whoever cleans up, it's a respect thing. The tables, upper level, all are nice. Nice chairs, nice views, good lighting and music. Everything here is exactly what I'd want to see in a high end club like this, and there's rarely any issues with cleanliness that I can see. Again, my experiences are limited so if you coming here for dances, special events, weekends, any of that I wouldn't be the one to talk to. But if you with a couple buddies and want a cheeky lunch hour, yeah you not gonna find something better than this my friend, this is peak mangia, baby!

I can't remember having this much fun. I don't like to think of myself as old but my grandson is in…read morecollege, so I can understand if others think of me that way. My girlfriend and I have been dating about six months. As I rummaged around the internet I come across a story about The Power Exchange. It might be fun, we could go and watch people having fun, maybe play with each other a little, if that feels right. What do we have to lose, if it's to creepy we can just leave. When I mentioned the idea of going to a sex club, my girlfriend, she fired off a string of questions, "Do I want to have sex with other people? Do I want her, to have sex with other people? Are people going to be groping me? Is it just going to be guys with their dicks hanging out .... " No, No, I don't know, maybe, If it's creepy we can leave. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The main room is the size of a basketball court with a disco ball. Near the entrance under a spot light, is a black leather swing, suspended from chains, with stirrups for your feet. I motion towards the swing and ask my friend if she would like to try it? I didn't expect that she would agree since we had just arrived. Without hesitation she climbs up. She is suspended inside the metal frame with her legs far apart and her hands holding the chains behind her head. I Can't believe how beautiful she looks. I grab a nearby chair the perfect height, and sit down to eat as if it's my first meal in a month. She is laying back and allowing me complete access, while I am also able to watch the reaction on her face. What I can't see is the stream of new arrivals that have been standing behind me taking in the view. A hour later we go down stairs where there is a warren of rooms some occupied and others not. My friend and I enter one of the small rooms and spend the next hour touching every part of her. The door is open and I am only vaguely aware of other guests coming and going. The rules of the club require that you ask permission before touching and given that we are completely engrossed in each other "our guests" just watch respectfully before moving on to another room. Staff people on each floor watch to be sure no one is being pressured into anything. We devote the next hour to discover if it really is possible to fuck someones brains out. - As we got to the car my friend said let's do that again. I agree - that was the most fun I have had in years. The only thing that would make this place better is if I could find a parking garage near by that was open late

Deceptive pricing and rude staff. Advertised $70 for couples on 7/17-7/18 and wanted to charge $80…read more Said the $70 only applied on 7/17 and they had no control over what's posted on their website. Ridiculous excuse. You don't control your own website? The confusion could have easily been avoided by clearly stating "price applies night of 7/17" instead of listing two dates for the $70 price. On top of that, the very rude bouncer tried to tell us it was $100 each (which is the non-couple pricing), despite us informing him we were a couple. It was all handled incredibly poorly by both the bouncer and the man behind the desk where you pay. We left after experiencing such condescending attitudes. They lost our business and earned themselves a one star review. Unfortunate for all parties.

Love to Visit Again !!!! Great they have this Luxury here…read morenear to Central Berkeley !!! Have used their Jacuzzi & Steam Room plenty, but its been EONS !!! A Good Entertainment Club for Afterhours !!!!!

Convenient spot, but staff could use more helpful vibes…read more I booked a room here because it beats the hassle of just renting a locker for eight hours--wandering around, hoping whoever I match with has a room. With my own space, I can actually host and keep things smooth. Location's practical, I've used it before, no complaints there. This visit, though? Front desk was frustrating. Vending machine was supposed to take Google Pay--I had money on my linked card--but it kept rejecting it anyway. No physical cards, no cash, just wireless pay, so I was stuck. Thing is, that same Google Pay card worked fine when I paid for my entrance fee at the front--so I figured if they opened the machine, I could just buy what I needed and pay him right there, where it actually processed. When I asked if they could open it for me (unless it's some independent vendor), the Latino guy--black shirt, small red shorts, I think his name's Jesse--said it's theirs, but he doesn't have the keys. Then it was just "Sorry, can't help," "We don't do that," and he'd walk off. Felt like talking to a brick wall on a slower-than-usual Tuesday night--there were a few people around, just not the usual rush. They kept saying "just use the ATM we have here," but that thing doesn't even take wireless tap--Google Pay's useless on it. I wasn't leaving empty-handed after paying--refunds aren't an option once you're in--so I kept at him, asking questions insistently--not yelling, just not backing down. Half the time I'd have to walk behind him as he kept moving, not stopping to hear me out--he was being evasive, like he wanted me gone. I ended up chasing him down just to get a real answer. I asked if there was any way I could leave momentarily without losing my spot, and only then he said, "Okay, yes, you can take a 20-30 minute break." I bolted to my bank's ATM outside, got cash, made it back in time. He buzzed open the door for me without a word, then said nothing else--like I wasn't even there. I had to approach him again, ask if he needed anything else from me. Only then did he grab a towel, dump my keys on it, slam the bundle across the counter, and turn away, evasive the whole time. Made me feel like a nuisance instead of a member. If he really can't open the machine, fine--but some basic direction would've helped. I get policies are strict, maybe he was having an off night, but the whole thing left me feeling dismissed. Room's fine, 8-hour setup's handy, but honestly? This is my last time. After that, I just don't feel like coming back. One star: convenience wins, but service influences the whole experience. [By the way... If their policy is so strict to not wanna do something as simple as opening a vending machine, why then did I see a woman bathing in the hot tub in a self-claimed "male-only" bathhouse during this visit?]

I keep reflecting on last night and saying "MY GAY ASS LMFAOOOOOOO"…read more First, the cons: I still don't like that black bald security guy with the straggly beard that works there, he's always specifically rude as hell to me. But everyone else is cool! Moscow Mules are extremely tasty, the latino security guy with the newsboy cap is always friendly and I adore seeing him, Danielle is a great presence, and I was treated nicely here! Hygienic, a nice ambiance, and ladies seem relaxed! FRIDAYS are indeed the best night with other friendly ladies (and some couples, although mostly women) in the audience and couples throwing cash, the ladies working are EXTREMELY friendly and sociable, so if you're nervous, don't be! Get all dolled up and put on a cute fit... the cutest one in your closet, yes THAT one, and wear it here... And bring your cash, 100$ is enough for a great couple's dance (3 songs, and you'll wish it were 5) and 200$ at least if you genuinely wanna have a great time throwing ones and turning up! (Don't be like my date and sulk about not getting a ton of positive attention if you're also not showing positive attention back in the form of tossing ones... As you can imagine, I'll probably avoid bringing him back-) I had an experience with the stripper So-So that was soooooo so incredible that I had the gayest dream I've ever had in my life and woke up the next morning ready to entirely block every man in my phone and be a rich lesbian instead. 11/10 experience Also of course shoutout to Zion, Genesis, and Eliana (Eliana is extremely gorgeous and takes great care of herself, she's fun and sassy,) and admittedly So-So's couple's dance with me and my date last night had me in a DAAAAAAZE, I was literally so faint and swooning after it that I was stumbling around like a newborn baby deer all weak in my knees. (And mind you, I was sober at that point, more than enough water and hours passed, I was euphoric!) It was like getting Snoo-Snoo'd in Futurama, hell yeah So-So! It's almost 6pm the next day and I am swooning even now! (also i forgot, i was dancing at First Fridays in my five inch heels, so i think my knees were genuinely damaged before arriving anyway, I haven't moved all day since getting home... do ur stretches yall) She was laughing to my date like "She's all faint and blushing nowwwww she doesnt know what to do with herself oh my gaaaaaad", and that hater ass security guard said "Needa take their ass HOME", like sir... you're bald and snarky... avoid being seen or heard... (he's mentioned in a previous review about shoving me once, a weirdo) And his hater energy is why its 4 stars, I was amazingly ecstatic and he was a vibe killer, and dampened the experience! but I know deep in my spirit, this place is always a hit, 10/10 and knowing me I'll end up back here in a week and a half with even more cash to throw, anyone I've taken here leaves in all smiles, i slept like a baby and awoke an almost-full-lesbian

Unfortunately between me and all three of my friends we feel like they slipped something in our…read moredrinks.

As a fan of Asia SF, I was glad Dolls SF popped up after the closure of Asia SF. Unfortunately, I…read morethink Asia SF was much better in comparison. The show was good but the show at ASF was better. I think it has to do with the venue. Over here, tables are too far apart so you definitely don't feel the vibe. The vibe was much more fun at ASF. The girls were gorgeous and great as usual though Dinner was good! I also love that you can order whatever drink as part of the package. It's rare for food at a show to be good but it is! We got one of everything! The after party was weird. We had to leave after dinner so they could set up and we come back. So we went out to the main venue and it's all college kids. Really weird being in our 40's having to hang out with college kids to wait for the party. Eventually we were over it so we left instead of enjoying the party. I didn't like that we paid for gratuity and on a separate receipt there was tip for the dancers. The dancers were the waiters too so essentially instead of tipping 20%, we'd be tipping 40%. That didn't sit well with us and we didn't give the "show tip". If we weren't paying attention we would have paid both. The waitress seemed annoyed we didn't pay the show tip. All in all, I do recommend checking it out to try something unique in SF, but I think one time is enough unlike ASF where the vibes were so fun we went often for many events.
