- RROBERTVIPChicago / Illinois •21 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThis is fun drag show - lots of audience participation. Food is OK - but the show if super hot. Not a place for those sensitive to swearing. The price is good $45 to $55 a person - but they get you with the drink prices. So watch what you drink. Also, review your check closely - they give it to you at the very end - and I was overcharged about $60 dollars. The good part - they reversed it the next day after I called them. If you’re into drag - you’ll love this place.More infoLips - ChicagoPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• South Loop•4.9

Parking was kind of a pain to find, but other than that it was a very enjoyable evening. Our server was outstanding and the complimentary dessert was awesome. The kids said it was a 10/10!

Discover Chinatown
Chicago's Chinatown is the second-oldest Chinese settlement in the country. If Chinese food isn't already your favorite cuisine, it will be after you've dined here. Feed your family on the fly with delicious but affordable soy sauce chicken or a Peking duck dinner. Sit down to a dim sum feast that includes traditional chicken feet, short ribs, and egg tarts. If you're ready for the next level of Chinese fare, try one of the newer fusion restaurants. Lunch on crab and curry and taco baos, or have a night to remember at a seafood house that experiments with Cajun flavors.
