The Bada Bing! (aka the Bada Bing or The Bing) is a fictional go-go bar from the HBO drama television series The Sopranos. All interior and exterior shots of the Bada Bing are filmed on location at Satin Dolls, an actual go-go bar in Lodi, New Jersey. (Occasionally the neon "Satin Dolls" logo can be seen on an interior wall of the club.) The Bing represents one of the series' chief deviations from reality insofar as real-world New Jersey law prohibits the sale of alcoholat topless dancing establishments.

The Bing is owned and chiefly operated by Silvio Dante, Tony Soprano's consigliere. Tony's office is in the back room(s) of the Bing, and the Soprano Family often conducts business either in the Bing or these back room(s).

The club's title is a stereotypical Italian-American expression, also rendered as "bada bing bada boom", meaning approximately "something that happens effortlessly and predictably", and imitative of the sound of a drumroll. It may also derive from the "bada-bing" sound effect that James Caan's character, Sonny Corleone, makes to describe an up-close shooting in The Godfather.


Important events that have occurred in the Bing
The place where Tony Soprano and his crew find out Jackie Aprile, Sr. has died from his illness. One of the dancers vows never to forget where she was the day Jackie died.
Tony Soprano cancels the hit on Don Hauser, his daughter's soccer coach and uncovered child molestor.
Tony and Sil agree to have Richie Aprile killed, but are pre-empted by a deadly domestic dispute involving Richie and Janice.
Ralph Cifaretto beats his pregnant girlfriend Tracee, a Bing dancer, to death in the parking lot just outside the building.
Johnny Sack informs Tony that he is prepared to reconcile with Ralph following an insult to Sack's wife, in turn allowing Tony to cancel a planned hit on him.
Christopher Moltisanti threatens Tony with a gun for allegedly having an affair with his fiancée, but he has already emptied his gun of bullets.
Tony makes the case for not killing Vito over his homosexuality to Silvio and Carlo Gervasi.
Paulie has a vision of the Virgin Mary hovering over the dance floor and reconciles with his aunt and adoptive mother Marianucci.
