Chicago, Illinois
Drag dinner theater on the South Loop's Motor Row.
Drag dinner theater on South Loop's Motor Row, part of the LGBTQ-owned Lips chain (NYC, Atlanta, San Diego). The format is prix fixe — a three-course meal paired with a full drag revue, with packages running $33 to $53 per person depending on the night. Wednesday's Twisted Broadway and Thursday's Dinner with the Divas are the weeknight draws; weekend Dragalicious Brunch includes unlimited mimosas, champagne, or bloody marys. The kitchen leans into the theme with drag-named dishes — Vivian Dejour lobster ravioli, Batty Davis elote fritters — and the room matches: crystal chandeliers, neon lighting, and mannequin legs in stilettos jutting from the balcony. Reservations available through OpenTable. Closed Monday and Tuesday.
