    Shot girls are there to give you a good time. Be nice or leave! They're only trying to do their job! Aside from that, drink up! You're on Bourbon! What else are you there to do?!?

    Aggressive shot girls. Without asking I had 2 shots down my throat as did my hubby then she demanded $13. For the rest of the night we has to physically put our arms out to keep them at bay.

    Fun place to dance, but you have to be a ninja to fight off the aggressive shot girls. They'll pour weak overpriced shots down your throat & charge you through the nose.

    Egad! Even worse than the 3 for 1 happy hour bars, Famous Door has their "famous" 2 for 1 $7 cans.
