Addendum to Eddie Merckx previous post...
"The whole tone of the place seems not quite right, like there's something going on that you're not supposed to know about."
You have it right Eddie, here is why.
Part 1...
Any club like this has to give something to the "big boys". Instead of directly paying the mob, the security job and bouncer jobs are given mostly to the mafia's little guys. Hence their overly-aggressiveness.
This club is vampiristic of its customers out of necessity.
It's manager/owner, Marc Alonso, is only a strawman owner. As a club that was making 2 million dollars + a year was sold to him for $125,000 through the efforts of the club's lawyer, Steve Schaeffer (who had to illegally backdate sale documents in order to prevent confiscation of club by authorities prosecuting the club's real owner).
It's original and present "hidden" owner, Lawrence (Larry) La Spina had to do this because he was going to prison for bribery and stealing 15 million + dollars from the IBM company. These ill gotten gains are what allowed him to buy the club, originally Stringfellows, and fix it up as Ten's in the first place. So IBM and the IRS (unpaid taxes) would be grabbing this club as an asset, particularly seeing how they each have a judgment against Larry La Spina for over 1million + dollars each. This is why the strawman sale had to take place around year 2000. (try Google search...Laspina and IBM...its all there.)
This meant lots of legal fees for the criminal court case. As La Spina had hired Ron Kuby and a few other high priced attorneys to try to keep him out of jail. Most of that money was club profits, which results in more aggressive tactics to squeeze the customer.
La Spina spent six and a half years in prison and was just released late 2008. So now he will be improving the operations over the monkey brain that does now. Whether he will have the club resold back to himself remains to be seen.

Let me start off by saying I'm a female & I have been planning my best buds (male) party for a few months now. After "researching" a few popular spots in NYC I decided on Tens because the atmosphere, females & people I dealt with seemed right for my best bud & our male friends. I spoke with at least 3 different people, on at least 6 different occasions, and I got a guided tour with what I thought was a full explanation of the "packages/deals" they had available. I SHOULD HAVE GONE WITH MY INTUITION & GOT IT IN WRITING!! I say this because the night of the party, they went back on their word and tried to get two an extra $240.00 from me!!! It was obvious that they haven't dealt with a strong chic before because there was no way that I was going to pay the extra dough for their mistake or rather "sudden change in policy"!! I HAD THE FEELING THIS KIND OF MISUNDERSTANDING HAPPENS MORE OFTEN THAN NOT!! After several "conversations" back and forth I agreed to pay 1/2 and they agreed to add free shots, a free roasting (which I was planning to pay $200 for) and an extended hour of free drinks. Of course the extended hour was only 40 mins because the big RUDE blockhead inside wouldn't accept the deal the nicer muscle head had given me. So we left.
And if it wasn't for their stupidity and lack of willingness to HONOR THEIR WORDS, I would give it at least 3.5 - 4 stars. The music was great, the women were beautiful and fun - a couple were pushy but for the most part they were cool. The doorman was gracious, even during my ranting. It is true that the masseuse & waitresses are hotter than the girls, I think we all wanted a dance from one or two. The drinks kinda sucked, I have five including a shot & barely got a buzz - STICK TO THE BEER THEY CAN'T WATER IT DOWN!!!
AGAIN, IF THEY HADN'T P*SSED ME OFF ON WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN AWESOME ALL BOY PLUS 1 GIRL NIGHT OUT, I WOULD DEFINITELY GO BACK WITH MY HUBBY & FRIENDS (MARRIED & SINGLE) TO DROP SOME DOUGH FOR DANCES!!
Pros: GIRLS, MUSIC, LOUNGE TYPE ATMOSPHERE
Cons: RUDE MANAGEMENT, DRINKS

While it seems slick at first, there's something creepy about this place. It starts with the bouncers - as long as you bow and scrape to them, you'll be ok, but don't cross them, or you might end up missing a limb or two. The whole tone of the place seems not quite right, like there's something going on that you're not supposed to know about.
Pros: it's not too far west
Cons: it's creepy, and i had the feeling that something's going on that i'm not supposed to know about.

I live in New York City, and this is by far the top club in the 5 boroughs. The doormen were gentlemen, the management handled my crew and I with class and the girls were not to pushy. The name of the joint explains it all, every girl in there is a perfect ten. The one problem I had was with the drink prices, but who am I kidding? Its manhatten, expect to pay big money for anything. And at this place? Everything is worth it.
Pros: Women and Experience
Cons: Pricey drinks, but its nyc, so expect it

its too bad the cocktail waitress dont dance! they are hotter than the strippers! if you go there make sure to have mimi or jenn wait on you. great service and hott hott hott! my friend and i both got dances from a girl named dylan! amazing. bring lots of cash, once dylan has danced for you, you'll want more and the drinks are expensive. great vibe, good music, and tasteful dances. i'd go again.
Pros: girls girls girls
Cons: the floor manager, a big bald guy, too pushy.
