DROP EVERYTHING.
Not sure how I've never been here before, but I will be coming back often and bringing more friends. Came here for my birthday brunch and it ended up being one of the best birthdays I've ever had.
Brunch is reasonably priced for admission and brunch, costing $30, with another $20 for unlimited boozy brunch. The food was great and they have TATER TOTS. The service was great too and my glass was always full.
As an AVID drag fan and performer myself, I think I was most impressed with the caliber of performance and professionalism displayed by the queens.
First, our server was Carlos the Uber Driver (I let out a huge belly laugh when I heard that name). When I told her it was my birthday and I wanted to get drunk, she made me pound my first drink right in front of her. Smart and hilarious move, just like her performance. And I almost died when I saw her the very next night as the bartender on WWHL.
Next - the illustrious, incomparable, and hysterical SVETLANA STOLI. Gurl. What a complete package: beauty, talent, humor, and entertainment. She's the host of the show and it's clear why. I don't want to reveal too much more about her performance, so as not to spoil it for the others, but trust me when I say - she is the next drag superstar!!! Calling it now. Make sure you go see her now before the RuPaul crew starts charging an arm and a leg.
The rest of the performers were incredible too. Truly the best New York has to offer and made me feel grateful for living in this amazing city.
My final piece of advice: BRING DOLLAR BILLS!! -

first time watch a drag show, fun but a little bit overpriced. every single drag queen lady is so friendly and nice! I booked a table for my bride-to-be friend, we all have a good time and the show is very funny. the only thing I want to compliant is the seating arrangement, our table is on the backside, and the view is blocked by the front table who standing up all the time. (I wonder if there is a way to reserve a front table for a better view). and the server who serve the dish(not the nice drag lady who take our order) and the camera guy who take the photo just walk straight into our sight/ or standing still in front us and block our view ALL the TIME! we try to tell them to move away a couple of time, but they just did not listen to us and told us that they have to do this. (the reason I compliant about the view is mostly because our bride friend wants us to take as much as photos of her, and it is a little hard to do that in the back.)
besides that everything was great, I have the roast chicken which is a big portion and tasty really tender. all the dragqueen are super friendly, they may take some small insult joke but nothing really an offense. the night we watch the show, a table in the front also had a bride-to-be who was absolutely crazy and gives the host such a hard time. I even feel bad to the host by just watching it. the tip is included in the bill, about less than 100 dollars per person for the dinner and a couple of drinks. -

By far the WORST experience ever!!! HORRIBLE!! Drags are rude, mean, nasty, classless, ugly, tired and just old!! Super expensive for no reason.... the place looks like a cheep banquet hall. Food was horrible!!
LADIES!! they changed $38 for 2 margaritas!!
The show was 2005 drag queen show. I'm not sure if the drag that had the main show was jealous of our beautiful niece but He/She was super rude and made nasty remarks towards her. He treated her awful!
I will never recommend this place.
Please do not waste your time and money.
So annoyed I have to give it a star they deserve a turd -

This was SO FUN and hilarious. And surprisingly the food was excellent. I had the double burger with spicy tots and it was just so flavorful. I was not expecting that from a drag club at all.
There were about 5-6 different entertainers, but hands down my favorite was Kari Kerning. Stole the entire show by far. She had HILARIOUS skits, fantastic costumes, and truly knew how to work the crowd.
This is definitely not a spot for kids, nor is it for anyone who is PC or easily offended. There was lots of pussy, boobs, fake nudity, cursing, etc.
For the cost? $38 was well worth the price of a virtually 3 hour boozy brunch show. I thought it was from 3-5pm but when I looked at my watch it was 5:45!
Bonus tip: If you check in via Yelp, you will get a free Pink Pussy drink. And they DON'T skimp on alcohol! -

Probably one of the best drag brunch shows I've seen! Svetlana Stoli is one of the hardest working queens. She performed 4+ times, emceed a packed show, changed her look at least 6 times, and had another 5 queens perform dolors, group numbers and even had audience participation! And there was food and drinks! How can you meet that?! Most drag brunches have a couple queens, a few numbers and more talking than serving a show. These ladies worked so hard and gave me a damn good afternoon! Can't wait to come back! Get it Lucky Cheng's!
