Lucky Cheng's has been the name in New York drag dining for three decades, and its weekend drag brunch keeps the formula that made it famous: bottomless drinks, filthy-funny hosts and queens who work the whole room. Set on the fourth floor of the YOTEL, the show blends lip-sync spectacle with the kind of interactive comedy that makes every table part of the act. If you want a raucous, only-in-NYC weekend brunch with real history behind it, this is a reliable riot.

What to expect

Expect a bottomless-brunch format with a rotating cast of performers moving between tables, plenty of raunchy comedy, and a party that leans adult and rowdy. Both Saturday and Sunday seatings run on the weekend. Reservations secure your table tier and are strongly advised.
