Queens stage-and-bar hybrid with Instagram-famous dancers; expect high cover, urban crowds, and a tight room.

Starlet's draws a high-roller urban crowd and is known platform-wide for its attractive, diverse dancer roster—many with significant social media followings. The stage sits awkwardly behind the bar, and the room is small and crowded, especially after midnight when top talent arrives. Covers range from free to $60 depending on timing and negotiation (~$20 typical per 2014–2024 reviews); late-night surges are steep. Best for those who value talent and atmosphere over intimacy or privacy.

52/100

Island stage behind bar, couch VIP areas, street parking scarce—location is isolated but accessible by Uber.

Located next to a car dealership on Queens' 25th Avenue, the club is isolated and requires a car or Uber (25+ minutes from Penn Station). Street parking is scarce; a lot exists but is often empty. Inside, the rectangular bar wraps a central stage, with raised booths and couch VIP sections on the sides. The layout is maze-like and cramped, especially when packed, but the decor is clean and well-lit. Not a luxury room, but functional and designed for crowd flow.

49/100

Attentive bar staff, security-heavy entry, slow drink service during peak hours—respect present but efficiency lags.

Door staff conduct thorough security pat-downs and searches. Bar service is attentive but slows dramatically during rushes; bartenders are notably attractive and social but sometimes inattentive to drink orders. Floor staff monitor VIP areas closely. Respect is present, safety is solid, and cleanliness is acceptable—no major complaints about hostility or neglect, though one reviewer noted questionable change practices. Coat check is $3.

Food stand overpriced and poor quality; hookah and beer are the real draws, pricier than neighborhood alternatives.

The food stand is widely panned as overpriced ($10 per plate) and poor quality; reviewers unanimously suggest skipping it. Drinks are pricey relative to neighborhood bars (~$8 beer, ~$12 Heineken per reviews). Hookah is a popular draw and available. Bottles and bottle service exist but are upscale-priced. Food is not a reason to visit.

Diverse, surgically enhanced roster with strong stage work; bartenders outshine dancers in looks; lap dances expensive and limited.

The roster is diverse—primarily Latina and Black dancers with a few white and Russian performers, all notably enhanced with cosmetic surgery. Talent is strong on stage; reviewers praise pole work and twerking. However, lap dances are expensive (~$30 per song, per 2024 reviews) and limited to VIP couch areas or bar-side air dances. Bartenders are consistently rated as more attractive than dancers. Dancers are friendly but require spending to engage; stage tips can be decent if you're skilled at working the pole. One named standout: Tatiana (Sofia Vergara lookalike) was praised for charm and professionalism.

This club is the kind of place where you’ll find rappers and athletes throwing cash around, renting out spaces, and all that kind of flashy stuff. It’s not really my scene, but I decided to check it out just to see what...

I visited this club last Tuesday for Mogul Tuesdays with a friend while we were in New York. It had been a while since my last visit to Starlets, so we decided to check it out. We took an Uber from the Penn Station area,...
