I've been visiting Taboo for over ten years. It is an amzing place. It has changed over the years, usually for the better. My last visit was in May of 2009, just after the new owners had taken over so it was in a state of flux. Virtually all of the old dancers were gone, and for many it was about time, they were well into their thirties and there are other clubs for guys that age. Taboo is for youn guys (dancer's, not patrons). In May there were fewer dancers (and customers) than usual, but they were choice, especially Dusty and his cousin who's name I don't remember. I take issue with some of the other reviews. I have never encountered an unclean dancer or one that tried to scam or cheat me. They invariably go out of their way to avoid any hint of that type of thing and they wouldn't last long if they didn't. Sure I've been hustled for drinks and dances, but that's part of the fun. All you have to do is say no. These kids are not paid, they earn only tips and dance fees, which are extraordinarily modest. Where else can you feel up kids for ten bucks, or is it twelve now? I don't like each and every dancer but there are always plenty to like. So do go to Taboo (and the other clubs, there's one for every taste. And please, tip the dancers, they get bare assed and shake it all for you, so stick a five in their sock if they ahve a sock. Stick it somewhere. You'll be amazed at how friendly the dancers can be for a little token of appreciation.
