The Palomino is the only all-nude club in Vegas that serves alcohol -- one of two distinctions that sets the club apart from its competition.
The site was grandfathered in when county cronies decided that beer and bare weren't a good mix. This, of course, gives the classic Vegas club a clear advantage in the naked business arena -- one it takes full advantage of with healthy prices on all things liquid.
It makes up for this by easing off on the hustle. The ladies will approach you in the Palomino, but for the most part, they aren't pushy.
The Palomino also has the benefit of name recognition. The club has been around for years and is a part of the old Vegas landscape.
It also has that great old Vegas feel, including its oversized main stage on the first floor, its overuse of maroon as an interior design element and its muted lighting. There's a bar upstairs along with a more traditional strip club setting -- but still plenty of red. If you've summoned a lady, she'll walk you up the -- you guessed it -- red-carpeted stairs for your lap treatment.
The Palomino Club also offers what they call the Lipstick Lounge, a private room upstairs. This area has its own private stage, private bar, cocktail waitress and private dancers.
The club may be well off the Strip, but it does offer free shuttles. For a ride just call the club.
More info: The "Stallions" -- a totally nude male revue -- performs Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m., $20 cover.
