Immediately upon arrival one member of our party was refused entry. Understandable, he was significantly intoxicated. The bouncer, however, behaved rudely, commenting that he hoped "his marriage would fail" in regards to our friend. Being the great friend I am I put my buddy in a cab and sent him into the hotel. Then tried to go back into the strip club now that he was gone. I, and two others, were rejected for being "guilty by association" verbatim. The bouncer and I exchanged words where he continued to badmouth my friend. Childish behavior for an establishment. read more

They barely did their you would ask for a lap dance they roll they eyes catch an attitude look at you like you did something to them lap dance were 2 minutes long and then you had to pay for bullshit you had to approach them they such at their job place shouldn't even be opened read more

No better place to catch football games on Sunday than the Yellow Rose. Highly recommend for those not wanting to drive to a crowded sports bar. read more

I don't care if this place is "woman-friendly" it's not organized or professional. Friend made a reservation for a group of 16 of us to be in the club for their birthday Saturday night, woman at check in checks book and said it was made for Friday and starts using a lot of "well you didn't book at the right night." Friend called multiple times to check on the reservation as time got closer. Luckily we all got our money back, went over to Perfect 10 where the manager waived our birthday girl her cover, got her a free dance, and made a huge table for us. That's CUSTOMER SERVICE! I also remember calling this place to figure out packages so we could throw a bachelorette party earlier in the year. Probably the same check in person didn't know any of them. The first person you speak to can make or break a business transaction. Oh and the place is tiny in comparison perfect 10 too. Never going here again. read more

So it was my first time going to a club. It was clean, looked nice and the women were attractive. I know they say don't fall for the women, but the one I had give me a dance was far above expectations. They definitely know how to dance. read more

Came here on the bachelor party and the spot was recommended by two separate sources. We decided to come here for the night and it was nothing short of amazing. Host Curt was so welcoming and the service was second to none. If you visit Austin Tx be sure to drop by! read more

The place is a lot smaller than any other club I've been in. Dancers stage is small and the girls are NOT DANCERS. They just walk and grind in slow motion, seemed lazy and distracted BUT they were decent looking. Went here for hubbys bday and he was bored so we left. Seemed like a regular club with some half naked girls in it, NOT a strip club. Super disappointed by lack of talent here would NOT return. Also cover was more than listed and what I was quoted on the phone. read more

Just want to say Medusa and Danielle was the best dancers I had in vip. They both took very good care of me.

DO NOT GO HERE. Actual rating -5 stars. Shady place! My friends and I went there for my bachelor party and got bottle service. Long story short is even after getting bottle service and spending a bunch of money they separately charged both me and my friend an additional $2500!!!! After I disputed the charges my credit card company would not remove the charges because of the support the strip club gave them. When I looked at the support closely they absolutely forged my signature. For one, I only used my credit card once that night, as my friends were paying for basically everything, and I had two charges the next day and it wasn't my signature. This is the most dishonest establishment I've ever been to. THIEVES!! read more

Heard about this place from a friend... Classy place, nice people all around, fair pricing... Best in Austin!

Oh Ember. Ember Ember Ember. Why'd you break my heart?? I thought we HAD something. We had "our song" "Pour Some Sugar on Me". You forcefully spun my wheeled chair around and we spent a whole 4:56 minutes together. I thought you only gave that special smile and purr for me. But then the song was over (damn short Def Leppard songs! Why can't they ever play "American Pie" for dances???), and you took my (husband's) $20 and were gone, with only your perfume lingering, er, all over me and a memory of our brief love affair. You loved me up and left me. Le Sigh. read more

5 rules to follow, while in the Yellow Rose Rule 5 :make sure you aren't black. The strippers will not come up to you or flirt with you. The strippers are racist and close-minded. Rule 4: make sure you are Arabian, Indian, or Asian. Strippers love those guys because they always have money. They will come up to you for sure. Rule 3: watch out for roaches. I seen about six of them, while I was in there. Rule 2 : bring extra breath mints, not only for you, but also for the stripper too. I got a lap dance from this one chick who breath smelled like Elephant piss and feet. Rule 1: make sure, you aren't black and if you are, tell the stripper you are Domican and play baseball. read more

Anyone who has spent any time with me knows I have a tick. When I find something funny, or amusing I have an internal laugh. It is completely involuntary, it is a tick, like a small version of tourettes. To me it is a little "mmmm" but on tape, and to others it actually can be a loud, MMMMMMPPPHHH! As far as I know, I've had it since I was born. My parents tried to get rid of it, thinking it would hurt me later in life. Rightly so. I went to speech therapy, and tried everything short of shock therapy to get rid of it. Nothing worked. When I'm amused, you will know it, I'll give ya a "mmmmm." I don't even think it, I feel it, it just happens. I've come to accept it. It does hurt in the business world, but I just call it my little laugh and deal with it. There isn't much I can do about it. I have another involuntary laugh, it is a huge long unstoppable, and I'm sure completely ridiculous and obnoxious belly laugh/cackle that only happens very rarely. I laugh all the time, life is funny to me, but this isn't just a laugh, it is like a seizure. It happens so rarely, I remember the last time it happened, and it was over a year ago. I recall it shocked even my sister. My friend Eric said something that caused it. Well it happened again the other night. I'm not proud of it, or for that matter ashamed of it, but circumstances in business or life sometimes cause me to visit the Yellow Rose. I've gone there off and on since 1988. I met the now very famous manager, Don King, when he was still at Sugar's. There is now a shirt at the Yellow that says, "It is ok! I know DK!" Because everyone in town knows Don King. I'm all for the Dons! This time I went, and had Lulu's new Honda Fit, Junior, valet parked. When I gave the keys to the valet, I told him, "now listen I know how many miles are on this Fit, don't be joyriding in it." He laughed and ended up parking it "car show" style right in the front, where they normally park the Ferraris and bentleys. Wheels turned sideways and everything. Hilarious, but that wasn't what caused my 2nd laugh. I was there with a business associate. The guy was from out of town, and had heard of the world famous Yellow Rose. I've closed hundreds of thousands of dollars in deals there, back in my insurance days, so this was old territory for me. There was a dancer, named "C", who my associate adored. She did several dances for him, and he was in seventh heaven. "C" was heavily tattooed, which is commonplace nowadays. I remember back in the day, if a dancer had a tattoo she had to cover it up with make up. But times change. She had one tattoo on her...well on her behind, that had a name written in cursive. I'm half blind, so I just couldn't make out what it said. I thought it might say Vince Young, but I just couldn't tell. So I finally asked her, "What does your tattoo say?" She said, "YourName." I said, "no it doesn't." She swung her rear around and pointed to it and said, "Yeah it says Your Name, I already had a bunch of tattoos and figured what the hell! I use it to win bar bets with drunk guys. I tell them, I bet you $20 I got yourname tattooed on my ass." Seriously, it says "YOURNAME" I laughed so hard I thought they were going to throw me out. She was just so matter of fact about it. I couldn't take it. It was one of those "now I've seen everything" moments. I'll remember it for the rest of my life. God bless her. She was ok, she thought it was funny I found it so funny, and of course I tipped her. She is my new favorite dancer in the world. Anywhere you go, no matter how tough it gets, just remember there is a gorgeous young dancer at the Rose in Austin with yourname tattoed on her rump. read more

It is because of The Yellow Rose (and my jerkface friends) that (1) I do not remember a portion of my 21st birthday and later ended up removing my clothes and crawling from the living room to the bathroom to puke and die and (2) a very large bachelor party (and seriously y'all, it was the day before EASTER, WTF are you doing at a gentlemen's club???) got to see some (and by some I meant most) of my lady bits exposed to the world. TWICE. I didn't even know the dancers could touch you, let alone unzip your pants and lift up all upper body garments so that the men across the room who had stopped getting lap dances to watch your humiliation could see EVERYTHING. So, thanks, Boo. I'll never forget you. (and neither will any of my friends who now think it is hilarious to ask if I want to go in and see you anytime we drive past.) read more

Show of hands. Who else has had all their stuff in the Yellow Rose's parking lot, packed in the back of 3 pickups, an SUV and a Volvo? For the record, the Rose was the setting for the famous line, "I think that stripper really likes Colby." She actually called me the next day. Said things were slow and I should come in and see her. Skeeved me the hell out. As it should. read more

So there we were, in a downtrodden industrial area where they took our towed car. 1130pm. Dim fluorescent light coming from tall street lamps. Junk yard dogs snarling behind chicken wire fences. We walked along the gravel road where we were dropped off. We found the sign of the tow company. It's always hard not to imagine what you want to do to someone who took your car away from you, more than likely having to break into your vehicle to unset the e-brake...and this was a friend's car! He paid the fine, and we were once again mobile. Trying to make the best of the night we realized we were on North Lamar, heading south...that means something was coming up on the right. Something we've only heard about from friends, Tucker Max, and the local radio stations. The lights from the Yellow Rose came into view. We were two guys and two girls (the girls were in "adventurous mode" so we knew they would have fun here. We got lucky and found a vacant parking spot in the lot. The lot isn't big (not as big as Landing Strip), so either come early, or make sure you aren't someplace you could get towed (or spotted by cops if you're been drinking...and you shouldn't drink and drive). We walked in, $10 cover I believe, and it was amazing! The place was pleasantly filled, not crazy packed. We actually got seat in front of the main stage! It was great. I ordered jack and cokes and others ordered beer, so they have a full bar. The prices were not bad either! The ladies were really talented and great looking. The girls who came with us were also impressed by the place overall. I'll definitely be back, probably with a bigger group of guy friends next time. Love the Yellow Rose! read more

I've gone to every club in town at least once. If you are in the area you want to come here. The staff is friendly but seem willing to take no as an answer. The DJ was surprised to be tipped which I think is a bummer. Tip your dj people he keeps the show going. Food is decent drink specials are good. The drinks are not super watered down like at some other places in town. I've been here on a Monday and a Saturday both times were pleasant. There is a definite tiering system so if you don't like one day come back the next you will see a little variety. If you aren't into these kinds of places then don't go it's totally cool. FYI: The ATM fee is 7.99 so go to the bank's atm before you show up. read more

Was first introduced to this establishment by a girlfriend in Austin several years ago. I remember the weekend night that we went with her, the place was jam-packed, and it seemed like the Cheers of strip clubs - everybody knew each other, and it was more like a fun bar/club scene that happens to have hot alternative chicks dancing topless. Visited again recently on a Monday night, and it was much slower, bordering on dead. However, the girls are still (mostly) tatted-up and multi-pierced, and (mostly) sexy with great bodies. Best of all, the staff (waitresses, bouncer dude, dancers) all seem to have great attitudes and are fun to chat with. When I wanted a Yellow Rose t-shirt as a souvenir, our waitress modeled them all for me! And I love that slogan - "Keep Austin Topless"!! read more

I honestly don't know what criterion to utilize when judging someone who just took off their clothes at my command and danced on me. I'm at a lost. I'll go with 3 stars because it was a good time, but the drinks must be made with acetone. Pricey acetone. read more

I ate Thanksgiving lunch here in 2006 when the line to get into Threadgill's was ridiculously long. The food was the traditional Thanksgiving fare and was actually good along with being served buffet style and all you wanted. The staff were all very friendly and they had no strippers even working so they actually called in some girls and in the meantime had the waitresses dance for our group. I'm not the biggest fan of strip clubs but the really friendly staff and instant food definitely made for a far better Thanksgiving than standing in a long line. The really great thing is that even with indulging in several beers and having live entertainment the price for lunch was still far cheaper than just eating at Threadgill's. read more

OK, so the Yellow Rose (a.k.a. "Flower Shop") is a topless joint. It still has a decent FREE Friday lunch buffet - enjoyed in the company of some of Austin's most friendly dancers. The staff is also very helpful. Can't say I feel the same way about nights at the Rose. The physical beauty of the dancers can range from 'awesome' to 'why is she doing this for a living.' The cost of beer ($5 a bottle) and a stiff entry fee ($10 on weekends) makes the Rose 'not so nice' (even for Kazakhs..LOL). The VIP area seems to be the only area worth visiting during weekend nights at the Yellow Rose - and of course VIP membership only adds to the price. The rest of the club can appear like the "Siberias" of fancy NY restaurants. The Yellow Rose is only average in the clubland (both topless and not) of Austin - but try the buffet on Friday if you are in the neighborhood. read more

You don't get here often unless you have money and lack the ability to enjoy the women around you. That said it wise to go at least once, as the great Strip Joint is one of the institutions which defines Texas like no other. I was there for a friend's bachelor party and some other people were footing much of the bill. It is wonderful to see so many scantily clad females. My major complaint is that they're all young and skinny. I really feel they should appeal to a more diverse taste in body types. The lap dancer was extremely professional to the point of making me question what is affection. Indeed such an experience rather shocked me and I may never be the same. All said I still to this day feel a bit more culturally aware. This is also the best place in Austin to get two-dollar bills. read more

By far the worst strip club I've ever been to!! The food sucked!! The drinks were watered down.. and to top it off all the chicks looked like they were in a zone. They looked like straight up zombies!!! Don't know if its because they hate there Jobs or if its the drugs. For god sakes, these chicks wouldnt make eye contact and the way they all looked... Well let's just say they all looked pissed off. Total waste of money. No wonder every single girl walked off stage with no more then 4 to 5 bucks in there panties. If your looking for.... The walking dead zombie chicks that are so gone on drugs.... Or a bunch of girls that look like they just rolled out of bed.. Then this is the place for you!!! God this place suckssssss!!!! read more

I went to YR on Friday and had such a great time, I returned on Saturday. Everyone at the club is super friendly. I got a two girl dance with Maui and Fancy, and it blew me away. I love that there are almost always three girls on stage. The Rose burger is incredible. Love this place! Another time, I got a cabana dance with two dancers named Leilani and another named Eva, who is rarely there. Both girls were drop dead gorgeous. They took me behind the curtain and let's just say that the rest is something you might see on pornhub. Was fantastic! Love this place. read more

Ive visited all of the gentleman's clubs in town or at least the upper crust of them. My recommendation to you guys and ladies is the Rose. Im going to give this place 5 stars based on overall experience. The Rose in my opinion is the right size not too small and not too big. When the place is busy its like a club scene with beautiful topless women walking around and when its slow its like a neighborhood bar with topless women walking around. These entertainers jump from club to club around town so its important to have strong ownership and management to lay down the rules on how customers should be treated. With that being said you wont find the girls overcharging you or trying to rip you off. The have valet, 2 large bars with a kitchen and transportation for those who have had too much to drink. I appreciate the employees and entertainers here for providing a great place to drink a cold one with a view! read more

What a way to spend a Thanksgiving night...no local family, a slightly tipsy friend (thanks to tasty stouts from the Draught House Pub!), and an empty belly caused the Yellow Rose to become our destination. On the way to the Whataburger on Lamar, I remembered that the Yellow Rose is supposed to have a good burger, so we went there instead. The reviews turn out to be true: they make a good burger and the bun is quite tasty (the downfall of so many burgers is the bun itself). I agree with Megan that while watching you feel like you're intruding, but I found that watching via the mirrors eliminated this. Strange psychology, that bit. read more

The music was terrible, the girls were okay, 80% were really nice and entertaining, I had one stripper that was on stage that asked my group of friends "who's gonna tip?" She hadn't even started dancing yet, really? We went on a Friday night and there was no parking so we did valet, the drinks are decent and the area was nice. But the DJ played horrible music. I'm not sure how I feel about coming back. read more

This would be more stars but when I go to a strip bar I expect a bit more stripping. The girl on stage didn't have a lot on to start, but didn't remove anything. I'm not a pervert or anything but I prefer the women at a well known and well regarded topless club to get a little more topless. read more

A solid three star's for years. FIVE star would be adding a female DJ voice and bringing back the gourmet food. My lady alway's get more attention than me, maybe because she's always in a skirt. I'll wear my Kilt one day. LMOA read more

GREAT CLUB GREAT MANAGEMENT GREAT SECURITY GREAT GIRLS GREAT EVERYTHING..... Tried out other strip clubs in Austin and they just piss you off after going to the Yellow Rose. This is the club where spending the money is really worth it. Great jobs guys. read more

Took a bachelor party here and everyone had a great time. If I had any complaints it was that a few of the dancers seemed poorly educated even though they were working toward graduate degrees. Maryland is a state located on the eastern coast of the United States of America, as is Virginia. The bartenders were exceptionally friendly, most notably Cassandra, and the drinks were not outrageously priced during happy hour.... However you do get happy hour grade talent along with it. The A squad which arrived later was top notch however. 8/10 doctors recommend it. would go again. read more

Another under rated strip club, this club was kinda dark so u couldn't really see any of the girls faces but I mean come on bruh if u came to see there faces u in the wrong kinda club. The quality of women here is if anything diversified ranging from tight fit bodied chicks to big booty girls so a lil for anyone and everyone. Gimmicks for bachelor party can be purchased from 200-300$ so make sure to make a stop here if u r hosting a party and make sure to get them to shuttle u free just negotiate it in with a prepartial negotiated price over the phone. Vip booth and bottle was 400$ for 12 with a pick up service. Girls dancing on stage coulda put on a better show but fuck it they were good lookin. Last but not least I'll finish my review with #facerodeo and if u don't know it's cuz u didn't go. read more

Of all of the clubs Yellow Rose is the best! Especially during the day shift! I have been going to Yellow Rose for over 25 years even while serving in the U. S. Army! I highly recommend it! The great hard working staff, the DJ, the waitress staff, the host, & the bartenders are what makes the club the top in Austin! One of the day managers Chris Kane is a great manager who is there for the customers! Great memories! read more

$20 per person for what? Nothing to see the twenty minutes we paid to sit in there for overpriced drinks. Majorly disappointed and will be taking me and all my biker friends somewhere else. Wow. read more

My recommendation to you guys and ladies is the Rose. Im going to give this place 5 stars based on overall experience. The Rose in my opinion is the right size not too small and not too big.

I went here with friends for a birthday party. We had a lot of fun. The drinks are *very* expensive but the place is fun and the girls were really friendly. My friends and I got dances from a a few girls. I remember Ashley, Andy(?) and Holiday. The girls were really sweet, very hot, and Holiday explained all the rules to us which helpes me becasue I am not a frequent strip club goer. Also these girls don't seem scared to give dances to women which is awesome. Only downside was it got crazy busy at about 10pm and was hard to find a seat. I'd recommend calling ahead to see how busy they are. read more

Watch your credit card when you give it to them. You will notice extra drinks on your receipt.

Judy rocks!! Had the best night with Paris ;). The dancers are fantastic, no one disappointed ! We love this place 'l!

A total rip off. Sure I was willing to pay the $500 for a private dance and sugar for whatever reason the waitress thought she was worth $140 to bring me some over priced bottle of water which was a total insult but then they hit me with other charges and I signed off and a $705 receipt and was charged 860 on my bank account and they go and tell me about certain charges in this and that even though my signature was on a $700 ticket and they charge me $860. The real shady about it I'd watch out if I were you and stay in the main lobby. read more

From the Valet, to the door guy and girl, to the table, and the rest of the night, we received very professional and courteous service. Great atmosphere and beautiful women! The drinks are also very good. Had the best time! We will be back. read more
