Chix on Dix
Detroit, Michigan
No longer open. It has closed in 2016.
What happened after
Renamed "Power Strip" by Jon Taffer (S4E41). Wikimapia lists the entry as "Power Strip (former)" at 403 South Dix Street, Detroit, confirming the business is no longer operating.
Closure date on record: 2016
What happened on the show
A failing Detroit strip club with a violent work environment, a staff with no standards and a manager out of his depth handed Taffer a genuinely rough rescue. At Chix on Dix, the atmosphere itself was the problem, a room where the culture had curdled into something unsafe and unmanageable, run by a manager who could not impose order. The rescue worked to reset both the environment and the leadership, imposing standards on a crew that had none. Taffer reopened the venue as Power Strip, a rebrand meant to give the troubled club a fresh identity and a functional operation, betting that real management and enforced standards could pull a room defined by volatility and chaos back toward being a viable business.
After the cameras left
Chix on Dix, rebranded Power Strip, has since closed. Wikimapia lists the entry as Power Strip, marked former, at 403 South Dix Street in Detroit, confirming the business is no longer operating, which holds the closure at medium confidence on a single source with a likely 2016 timeframe. The troubled strip club did not survive its makeover: whatever standards Taffer imposed, the violent, unmanaged culture proved more durable, and the Power Strip identity is gone from the Dix Street address.
