About Lucky Cheng's

Lucky Cheng’s is one of New York City’s best-known drag-dining experiences, combining dinner, drinks and a deliberately bold cabaret show. Expect glamorous performers, adult comedy, audience interaction and a celebratory atmosphere designed for birthdays, group nights and visitors who want a full production rather than a quick drink. The show operates as a ticketed experience, so advance reservations are essential and walk-ins may not be available. Locations and performance schedules can change, so confirm the current venue, showtime, menu and booking conditions on the official Lucky Cheng’s website before travelling.

I could go on and on about how amazing my experience at Lucky Cheng's was, but I'll try to keep it short. The food was absolutely delicious. I got the Eggs Benedict, and my friend got the Steak and Eggs; both were flavorful, filling, and cooked with love. We both especially loved the home fries that came with our dishes. The bottomless mimosas were truly bottomless; we'd turn our heads to watch the performances with a half-empty glass, then turn back to see a full cup right to the top. The mimosa was delicious as well, a perfect mix of juice and alcohol. And I would be a fool to not mention the insanely talented performers. Every single queen we saw on Saturday blew us away. You can tell all of them love their art form and have so much passion for performing and giving every single customer a good experience. Not only that, but every queen made the effort to come to each table and introduce themselves! I've seen a few reviews displeased over the price, which is $25 for the initial ticket and then $46 for an entree and bottomless mimosas before tax and gratuity; but keep in mind that you're not only paying for quality food and truly bottomless mimosas (I definitely drank over $46 worth, lol), you're also making sure these talented queens get paid for a damn good show! Lucky Cheng's isn't just a meal, it's an experience--and an amazing one at that. If you're in NYC and need a good place to have brunch and kill time for a few hours, this is the place to go. I will absolutely be coming back!!!
