    I laughed. I danced. I sang. I cried???? Food was mid. Girls were iconic. I questioned my Sexuality. I developed a new religion. I am… in such a state. Will address with my therapist. 20/10, will back back.

    We had an amazing time at this venue. Performers were so good! Service was excellent and although the food was ok (not great, but good), the total experience made up for the dinner. Total value for what you paid - dinner and a show for $42 in NYC? Had so much fun and would go again!

    This great fun. To be clear - this is a classic drag show so if drag offends you - STAY HOME. Almost 100% female attendance. Great for birthdays and bachelorette parties. It is all you can drink but the mimosas were really watered down. Assume the same for the BMs. All drinks are served by the pitcher. Food was actually good - a pleasant surprise. Reservations a MUST.
