We attended the drag brunch BINGO hosted by Jacklynn Hyde. It was fabulous. Very entertaining and engaging. The drinks flowed through out the 90 minute show. The wait staff was very attentive and constantly checked to see if more drinks were needed. Highly recommend!

Brought my son age 17 and daughter age 19 for dinner but was rejected at the door. The minimum age is 21. We were rejected at the door by a really rude guy who seemed more like a security person than restaurant personel. Neither the restaurant website or OpenTable did tell me at any time during my reservation that the minimum age was 21. Bad service.
