Company Information: Sit down with a fantastic margarita, and become mesmerized with the beautiful "girl" who saunters over to the table to take your order. The girls are actually guys, as this place is staffed by drag queens. Naturally, they create an interesting ambiance. Guests soak up the scene while dining on American cuisine like fresh pasta, chicken and nachos, which can all be washed down with a strong cocktail.
Hours of Operation: Dinner nightly, Brunch Sun.

Food is overpriced and horrible. But thats not why you go to a theme restaurant, right? You go for the entertainment ! Well the "entertainment" was worse than the food. Real tranny messes up in that dump. I was embarassed for the performers. The sound was horrible...they floundered around ...couldn't keep up with the songs. A real MESS.
I can't honestly recommend Lips for the food--which was on par with the Olive Garden and cost about twice as much--but I still love the place!
I went with a friend of mine who is a professional drag queen from out of town and we had a blast! All Beef Patty and Chandi are must-see acts! Lips is a good place to go with the girls; or, better yet, bring your super cute boyfriend. When I was there last one of the Queens got a cute guy out of the audience, took his shirt off and mimed a number of sexual acts while the guy blushed and the girlfriend laughed and took pictures with her cell phone.
Lips is a nice break from the monotony of "haute cuisine" places in Manhattan where three pieces of asparagus and aloof service cost you an arm and a leg. It's definitely fun and a break from the regular dining experience!
Loved it!: Was taken here in Summer 2001 by my sister and I couldn't stop raving about it afterward, going to be going again next weekend. The food was really good and the show was awesome. The one in San Diego isn't too bad, either.
