We went to their Horror Drag show brunch for a girls day. It was so much fun! The food was amazing and plentiful. And the drinks,on point. If your looking for something fun, maybe different, this is it!

The queens that perform here are some of the best I've seen, and the patio area is great, but I can't say the same for the bar area itself or the drinks. I ordered a vodka lemonade, and it didn't really taste like much of anything. The stage/bar area feels a bit chucky cheese like with the tables and carpet. It's awkward to walk around, and it's incredibly awkward to stand and watch a show without blocking the view of people sitting down. I'd definitely recommend stopping in to see the queens but it's definitely not a place for socializing and dancing

Was our first time at new location, there was good seating and great bartender. Show was almost more performance art than Drag show and everyone enjoyed all the performers.

We went there for a the drag brunch. Was very disappointed. The club was very rough looking, cheap chairs, poor backdrop. The worst was the new director “she” was very snooty BUT worst of all was very racial and used a lot of rude negative stereotypes. Very disappointing.
