Most first-time nerves come down to one question nobody wants to ask out loud. What does this cost, and what am I agreeing to?
Fair question. It deserves a straight answer.
Good clubs post the answer in public. You can read the posted rules at Bella’s Cabaret before you ever walk in, prices included. That transparency is the whole difference between a relaxed night and a guest who spends three hours doing math in his head.
This guide is for adults. Entry at Bella’s Cabaret is 21 and over, and every guest goes through ID checks at the door. Policies and prices can change, so confirm current details with the club before you go.
Start with the two formats, because they are not the same thing.
Table Dance vs. Lap Dance
Miami clubs generally offer two levels of private entertainment, and the names get used loosely online. Here is how Bella’s defines them.
| Format |
Posted price |
What it is |
| Table dance |
$10 |
A dance performed at your table or seat |
| Lap dance |
$25 |
A one-on-one private dance |
The gap in price is the gap in privacy. A table dance stays where you are sitting. A lap dance is arranged individually with the dancer.
Both prices are published on the club’s rules page, which is unusual in this industry and useful for you.
One habit saves every awkward moment that follows.
How a Dance Actually Gets Arranged
There is no secret process. It is a short conversation, and it works the same way at most Miami gentlemen’s clubs.
- A dancer approaches you, or you ask the floor host to introduce you to someone.
- You say what you want: table dance or private dance.
- You confirm the price and what it covers before the music starts.
- You pay the dancer directly, according to the club’s posted rates.
- You keep your hands to yourself for the duration.
Step three is the one people skip, and it causes most of the friction. Ask. Nobody is offended by a guest who wants clarity.
The rules around all of this are shorter than you might expect.
The Rules That Actually Get Enforced
Bella’s publishes its full list, and the enforcement is not casual. Several rules matter directly during a private dance.
There is no touching the dancers, and the club states plainly that physical abuse of dancers is prohibited. No photos or video are permitted anywhere inside. The club runs video and audio surveillance at all times.
Guests who arrive intoxicated will not be admitted. Everyone goes through a security check. The club reserves the right to refuse admission or service.
The house rules also prohibit prostitution and drugs outright. Those are posted at the door for a reason, and staff treat them as non-negotiable.
Here is the part most guides never mention.
EXPERT INSIGHT: Nobody Is Supposed to Hustle You for Drinks
A licensed Miami club cannot legally run the drink-pressure play.
Guests brace for it anyway. They walk in expecting a dancer to angle for an expensive drink before the conversation even starts, because that is the reputation the industry carries from decades ago.
Florida law addresses it directly. Under section 562.131 of the Florida Statutes, it is unlawful for a licensee, employee, or entertainer working a licensed premises to beg or solicit a customer to buy them a drink. The Miami-Dade County Code carries its own version of the same prohibition in Chapter 21.
Enforcement has teeth because the Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco licenses the venue, audits it, and employs sworn officers. A club that lets staff work guests that way is risking the license that keeps the bar open.
The takeaway for you is practical. Buy a drink because you want one. If anyone pressures you, that is worth mentioning to management, not tolerating.
Now for the costs that sit outside the dance itself.

Budget the Whole Night, Not Just the Dance
The dance price is the easy number. Three others decide what you actually spend.
Door fee. Bella’s states that door fees change depending on the hour of the day. Arriving later can cost more than arriving early. Call ahead if it matters to your budget.
Two-drink minimum. Every guest is subject to it. Build it into the plan rather than treating it as a surprise. The full drink and bottle menu is online.
Tips. Tipping is customary in this industry and separate from posted dance prices. Bring small bills so you are not improvising at the rail.
A rough approach that works: decide your total before you walk in, pull that amount out, and leave the rest alone. Guests who do this almost never have a bad night.
One more practical note. The club requires a shirt and closed-toe shoes, so a guest in sandals gets turned away no matter how the rest of the night was planned.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a lap dance at a Miami strip club? Prices vary by venue, and the best clubs publish them. Bella’s Cabaret posts a $25 lap dance and a $10 table dance on its club rules page. Always confirm the price and what it covers with the dancer before the music starts. Door fees and a two-drink minimum apply separately.
What is the difference between a table dance and a lap dance? A table dance is performed at your table or seat, and a lap dance is arranged one-on-one as a private dance. The price difference reflects the difference in privacy. At Bella’s Cabaret, table dances are posted at $10 and lap dances at $25. Ask what each price includes.
Can you touch the dancer during a private dance? No. House rules prohibit touching, and Bella’s Cabaret explicitly bars physical abuse of dancers. Security enforces this, and the club runs video and audio surveillance at all times. The club also reserves the right to refuse admission or service to any guest at its own discretion.
Can you take photos during a lap dance? No. Bella’s Cabaret prohibits photos and video anywhere inside the club. That rule protects the privacy of the dancers and of every other guest in the room. Put your phone away when you walk in. Staff will address it quickly if a phone comes out on the floor.
Do you need cash for dances? Bring cash to be safe. Dance payments go directly to the dancer, and tips are customary on top of posted prices. Small bills make the night easier. Confirm which payment methods the club accepts for door fees, drinks, and VIP packages when you call or arrive.
What is the age limit at Bella’s Cabaret? Entry is 21 and over. Guests go through multiple ID checks, and the club runs a security check on everyone who enters. Florida law bars serving alcohol to anyone under 21, and Miami-Dade County ordinance prohibits minors in night clubs countywide. Bring valid government photo ID.
The Bottom Line
A private dance is simple once the numbers stop being a mystery. Ask the price, respect the rules, budget the door fee and drink minimum alongside the dance, and the night runs itself. Clubs that publish their rates in public, like Bella’s Cabaret, make that easy before you ever leave the house.
