Tootsie's Cabaret opened in 1993 as a small club in Miami Gardens. In 2006, the club moved to a building that formerly housed a BJ's distribution center in Miami Gardens.[2][3]
In 2007 a subsidiary of RCI Hospitality Holdings Inc. acquired Tootsie's Cabaret for $25 million.[4] In 2015 the subsidiary purchased the building two, increasing the square footage.
