The Top 10 Buzzed About Nightlife Spots of 2011

3. The Westway The super posh and "hipster strip club" Westway, has been one of the hottest "go-to" this year. The exclusivity and topless dancers may have a thing or two to do with it or maybe because Matt Kliegman and Carlos Quirarte are duo behind the place. The two are the same behind the very popular downtown hangout Smile and also host tons of parties and events at The Jane Ballroom. Quirarte told WWD:

"The fact that it is a topless, go-go dance place is secondary,' 'It's the same way that music is sort of in the background. That's how we think of it.'

Even Valentino himself took to the catwalk of Westway, singing karaoke with none other than Carine Roitfeld and Anna Dello Russo during Fall Fashion Week.
