    Always a wonderful experience at Cafe Luxembourg. The service, personnel and staff are all friendly and informative. The food is very consistent and deliciously prepared, whether they are the menu entrees or the dinner specials. Always a nice selection of beverages. We enjoy dining here as it is also convenient to Lincoln Center venues, just a short walk.

    Exceeded our expectations. We chose to experience this iconic restaurant with our son to celebrate a special occasion, but the experience was more than anticipated. Service was EXCEPTIONAL, the food was delicious, perfectly executed and served with excellent timing. Manager checks table side, friendly staff, beautiful ambiance, STILL a fantastic restaurant. Definitely worth its pedigree of long term respect. Not just a tourist attraction…definitely worth a visit for anyone wanting a special dining experience in a lovely setting.

    For never having been to a drag show in my 53 years, I feel like I've been missing out after attending Rise's Drag Brunch! It was a phenomenal show! We were celebrating my sister's bday and the two queens made sure to involve her as much as she'd allow. They really interacted with the whole audience. The venue was perfect, on the small side so it seemed more of an intimate experience. The food was delicious! The whole experience was great! I'd definitely recommend it for a really fun, different thing to do!
