"Lips, on Bank St., is a drag queen palace. Listen, they know how to dress. My waitress, you should excuse the expression, was 6'4". A 46-double-D. The waist is 44 inches. The weight, 350. The introduction? "Hi, my name is All Beef Patty." She/he waited for the laugh, then, "I'm actually on Weight Watchers. Soon I'll be Patty Melt."

In Short – Famous for its cheeky service and long-running Bitchy Bingo on Wednesday nights, this Village perennial is a favorite for bachelorette parties and other groups out for some lightly risque fun. The restaurant, decorated with photos, chandeliers and fake gems, serves American dishes named after local drag stars, but the main draw is the entertainment; drag shows begin at 7:30pm each night, and at 12:30pm for Sunday brunch. Cover charge is $7 on weekends.

Great Time!
by tmmrd
We had a great time. The girls give personalized attention for bachelorettes, birthdays, etc. We didn't eat the food, we just paid the cover so I can't comment there. We were not told that a 20% tip is added to your bill automatically.
- Pros: Ladies are wonderful
- Cons: 20% tip automatically added to check.

Great for any event!
by criticoneone
It was my first time at a drag queen show and I LOVED IT!! It was so much fun how the they get the audience involved. The drinks were sooo yummy. The decoration was fabolous. The only thing that I did not like was that they forgot to bring out my food. There was 8 of us and they brought theirs but not mine. It took a while to get our waitress's attention but finally she noticed and it took another half hour after that to get my food. Other than that, everything else was really good!
- Pros: The show
- Cons: The food took a bit long

Good Food, Good times
by DeeDee200
I went to Lips for the first time a few weeks ago and I had a great time. The food was great, the staff was friendly and funny, and the entertainment was a barrel of laughs! I recommend this place for anyone with an open mind and wants to have a good time.

All Beef Patty handed me a menu. It was nice. Roasted beet salad, crab cakes, grilled chicken, shrimp, salmon.
Lips was jammed. Open 10 years with branches in San Diego & Fort Lauderdale, it's the Starbucks of drag queens. People read about the place in tourist brochures because it's obviously a staple of NY." - excerpts from Cindy Adams' 1/17/07 NY Post article
