I'm not sure what else you need to hear? 🤣

Yes they do. https://newyorkmensmassage.com/

Alven has tattoos.

Agreeing to a massage with Philip was a mistake right from the start. He is probably the worst masseur there. He likes to upsell too, which annoys me.

I agree about Jack. Energy Spa is not that great in general (IMHO) but Jack is a star there and makes up for any shortcomings with the facilities and usual service from others there. Jack is the main reason I go to Energy Spa.

13! They are practically a Benetton ad! I have only had Max and now David at Top Men so I can't help much.

I was able to see David this afternoon on my lunch break. He is indeed very handsome. Good massage skills, but not much else to speak of. Feel free to DM if you have questions. I will try someone else on my next visit to Top Men Spa.

I met him about a year and half ago. I would definitely recommend him. He's very passionate and assertive (not in a bad way - more of an "eager to please" way). He brought some sex toys when he came to my hotel and we had a fun time.

Educated consumers do not spread rumors and stoke fears of panic with unfounded speculation. Now, let's get back on subject and feel free to share your recommendations of the "other places [you] prefer."

And my comments are not directed at whoever reported on their closing. This is about your doom and gloom attitude - "More will follow. Seems like top men also is under surveillance." Even though you later admitted that you had no reason to say why them specifically... 🙄 "Yes he’s likely locked up." "Until they get busted again" You are bringing nothing of value to the conversation. That's great. How about concentrating on those places and stop berating one or two spas for "allegedly" doing the same activities that most likely happen in your favorite spots too. Let's not pretend you're going to any morally righteous places, hmmm?

No, I don't know why they were shut down. Do you know or are you just making assumptions and stirring the pot? Do you also remember when Hero Spa on W 50th was closed ("busted" as you like to say)? Did other spas get shut down then too? I don't believe so. I'd say you were being a "Debbie Downer" but at least she was funny. There's no need for the doom and gloom.

Such valuable commentary... 🙄 It's almost as if you are rooting for them to fail. How charming!

Jack is probably in his mid to late 20's, Thai, thin/toned and has tattoos. He has a quiet, polite demeanor.

I was able to make a last minute appointment at Energy Spa the other day. I have had a couple of massages by Jack recently and was happy to be able to see him again. He is Thai, and while his massage style does have some Western influences, I was still transported to Bangkok while he he gave a very nice "Thai style" massage starting from the feet and working his way up. I don't usually think of the masseurs at Energy Spa as having any decent skills but Jack the exception to the norm.

If you don't know, please don't stoke the fires of panic by making guesses about "who's next". It doesn't do anyone any good.

Oh no! That sucks! I just checked out their FB page and the last post is from Oct now. All of the posts (just their schedules really) from last month seem to be gone. Weird... I wish them luck.

I met him. I definitely do not recommend Andrew. I spent 90 min face down and then was told that the massage was finished. I was not happy how it ended. He didn't even wipe the oil off. Very disappointing.

I don't know. I've never been to Super Men's Spa before. Nikko is a skinny white guy (Greek, I guess by the name). But maybe someone else knows?

I tried Nikko today. I agree the massage skills are there, but I have to say his demeanor was not very welcoming. It's hard to explain without becoming more of a review... Anyway, I decided to end the massage a little early because he put me in a mood where I didn't feel like continuing.

I love that 27 publishes their masseur schedule weekly. I just wish they would update their weekly schedule on Sunday nights so I could plan my Monday massage ahead of time. 😜 I know one of my favorites is there every Monday but sometimes I want to try someone new.

BTW, this is their current website: https://www.grandeespa.com/

I think Grandee is the most recent name for this place. IIRC, it was Manta, then New Hero and now Grandee. Good to know about Charlie though. Thanks. I don't think they really care what you call it as long as you come in for a massage. You could probably call it Manta and they'd say "Yeah sure, come on in!" 😂

With pleasure! 😉

Well, at least his 1300 posts cover a wide variety of providers. Your posts have about as much variety as the gene pool in a West Virginia Walmart. But please keep posting! You'll turn your 80 ads for Utopia/Shangrila into 1300 real soon, I'm sure.

You might want to dial it back a bit. I don't know @Manmed but he does have about 1300 posts on this board, which gives him a decent amount of cred. Editing to add that I took a quick glance at your posting history. Not surprisingly, it is almost exclusively about Shangrila and Utopia, which just makes me wonder who really is the one who is affiliated with certain spas... 🤔
