It was a great show with good music. The atmosphere was electric. The AC appeared to be broken which was unfortunate given the current heatwave. I was even more impressed with the performers performing in such humidity and heat. Though the performance was great, the quality of the food was unforgivably bad. I ordered the chicken and waffle. The fried chicken was good but I definitely had the worst waffle of my life. Even eggo waffles are a million times better. The waffle was flat without shape, bitter and burnt. I am still shocked that a restaurant thought they could serve waffles like that ever. The three of us ordered the same plate and none of us took more than a tiny bite. I would recommend coming for the show but please skip the waffle dish at all cost.
This place is a REALLY good time! The Kweens are so entertaining. They're funny, and great dancers. On my visit they actually entertained the full two hours we were there. They go hard and even bring the entertainment onto the sidewalk. Excellent work there! The venue itself is fairly narrow. We had a group of 20+ people and basically took up two thirds of the restaurant. It's all good though there was still a bit of space in terms of tables and the bar for walkins. Looking around at the walls, nooks and crannies, they did a good job of accessorizing the design elements. The Kween Throne by the bathrooms was a big hit! Meanwhile, I see some of the reviewers didn't like the food. I saw no issue with it. Actually, I thought the empanadas were great! I had the burger but I made the tactical error of eating too many chips with the guac appetizer. So I bagged half of the burger to go. Bottomless Brunch is always the go and I had an entire pitcher of bellini for myself since the rest of my section went with mimosas (tactical initiative regained). At this point, you're probably wondering where I pulled the stars from. Here's the deal: We were celebrating two (2) "birthday girls." One of them was in my section, at my table. No orders or drinks (including water) arrived at our table for 40+ minutes. The service timing varied very widely from table to table, within our 20 person section. Whether it was a large group or multiple small groups, the service needed to be more smooth and based off of who was seated first, etc. When you're hangry, 40 mins. is an eternity. In addition, our reservation was scheduled months in advance. They should've been ready with a strategy to cover the service for our section. Still, you should go if ever you get the chance! Consider keeping a snickers bar in your pocket if you have a similar delay in your initial food order.
Did drag brunch and it was SO fun! It's a bottomless brunch so expect less from the food and drink but it's exactly what Astoria needs - an extra dash of gay. The performances were 5/5 I couldn't believe how good it was. The wait staff was friendly and attentive despite us sitting in the back away from the action. Really looking forward to coming back here soon! Wishing Kween all the success and appreciate that they're supporting the gay culture in the Astoria. If you sit in the back there's a TV to help you see what's going on in the front in case you're missing it but the performers (10/10 job Freeda Kulo!!!) made sure they made their rounds through the bar and spread the love. My friends who came with me said they didn't expect to be so entertained and really enjoyed it!
I so badly wanted to give a better review. The drag show was great and the queens gave 110%. I really enjoyed the experience despite the venue itself. Those queens got a big tip. They worked hard and they carry all the weight. The food was not good. I ordered the chilaquiles. It was bad. Basically nachos with no seasoning and no spice. Chilaquiles should be soggy and flavorful. Sauced! We had to ask for a sauce and after a long wait were given Cholula. It helped. But really ? Cholula? My husband ordered a chicken sandwich and he couldn't even eat the bun because of the heavy mayo application. He always eats the buns [sic]. The mimosas were off. Cheep champ with cheaper OJ. If you order bottomless, you stop caring after 3 glasses. Service was cute but slow. We got an initial flirtation and some attention but were then left on our own (and had to try our luck with the queens). The food and service alone would be a 1 or 1.5. Drag show boost this greatly. Thanks queens. Cooks: use salt.
This place was smaller that I thought, however, it was clean, it was colorful & fun! Went there for a birthday brunch and I was not disappointed!! The entertainment was super fun and enjoyed myself, the food came pretty quickly considering we were a party of 12!! Our waiters were super nice and friendly. This is LGBTQ+ friendly , so everyone welcomed! The appetizers were tasty specially the guacamole, the arepas were not my favorite but I think that's just a matter of preference. My main dish was delish! I had the egg benedict and it was perfect! The steak was also super tasty ,the prices were reasonable and overall it was a great place. Finding parking was a bit hectic so that's the only downside. Will deff be coming back!
Came here the Thursday before Manhattans pride and was super excited. There was a 2 for one special. I was beyond happy they had this cool instagram ready photo shoot area. I'm loving that the owner prides his baby dog in tons of photos. I also found out they have drag brunches I need to check that out. The service was absolutely amazing and a judgement free zone. I love these types of bars. The music was like throwback I think because it was a Thursday. I was having tons of fun. I'm definitely coming back here for brunch one night. Love my LGBTTQIA+ community you rock. Also their calamari was on point! Yassss Queen!
Had a great time at drag brunch, the staff was accommodating and so attentive. Food was great the only thing I didn't like was the calamari the texture was a little off. Everything else was delicious . Would def return for the show the general ambiance was high energy everyone came to have a good time. The place is a bit small but comfy.
I went for brunch with a few friends on a Saturday at 3pm. My friend who coordinated the brunch told us to bring singles, and I wasn't sure why, but it was for a drag show. It definitely was unlike any other brunches in the past and was a lot of fun (mature audiences). Moreover, I had the chicken and waffles, I forgot to take a picture of it, but it was good. It came with sweet butter and syrup which was too sweet for me but my friends said they liked it. We also shared the salad which was good but not too filling. I'll definitely visit again and highly recommend for a fun time
This is by far my favorite drag brunch from start to finish. From the beautiful interior to the little touches. This is a pink paradise! I have never felt more welcome or a part of the family when going to a restaurant.The business deserves all of its flowers! The owners were in attendance and are some of the most gracious people. Without spoiling the show there were flips, splits, and tricks galore. The food was exceptional. Latin flavor and a new take on a tres leches cake!!! Delicioso!!! Frieda and Bianca were the hostesses with the mostess! Don't forget the chair in the back KWEENS!!!!
Went for drag brunch with friends on my birthday. Huge shoutout to Freedakulo! Love her! She was the epitome of charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent and I hope she makes it to Rupaul's drag race one day!!! She was performing on her birthday! The food was good and fairly priced, they gave me a free birthday shot. Brunch minimum is $30 for drag brunch, which is the most reasonable considering I called around other gay bars for drag brunch info and found other places had a $50 minimum. If you come for drag brunch don't forget to bring cash!!!!! They were kind enough to offer change at the beginning of the show. Really considerate! Overall honestly the best drag show I have seen. You get 3 queens, not just 1 , and an unforgettable experience. Happy pride! read more

I've been here a few times now for brunch and late night during the weekends. I enjoy the experience every time. Brunch is a lot of fun. The drag queen is very fun and engaging. Most of the food was really good. I think $35 dollars for steak and eggs along with a mimosa is a nice deal. Their housemade bloody mary was really good and included a piece of bacon! We really enjoyed the steak and eggs and the crab and shrimp guacamole. The burger and the chillaquilles were impressive looking, but the bun on the burger was not very fluffy for a brioche bun and the chillaquilles was oddly sweet. On a Friday night, there was a DJ playing music and the vibe was clubby. I believe it is a relatively new bar so it wasn't very busy. I enjoyed the pop music and they still served the dinner menu. The calamari was cooked perfectly and the nachos with steak were really good. We tried the burger again, but the brioche bun hadn't changed. read more

Two weekends back to back I felt like Royalty @ Kween. My first introduction to the Royal court was on a Saturday. A party of six, we decided to stop in for few cocktails after a less then memorable brunch at an overpriced and unseasoned place in the city. We had such an enjoyable moment, we decided to return the following Sunday for a proper brunch seasoned with the right amount of Drag. Sunday's Drag Brunch is offered @ 1pm & 3pm. We decided on 3pm for our slightly smaller party of 4. Drinks were nice & stiff, food was tasty and the show was spicy! We had such an enjoyable time it more then made up for the previous weekend. The entertainers definitely entertained and the staff was efficient and gracious. Since we were celebrating the approaching nuptials of a very good friend. The staff allowed me to bring sweet treats that they enjoyed with us. Just A Note: Don't miss the Royal seat in the back, great photo moment. read more

I visited here with my friends for the drag brunch! I'm so happy there is another safe space for queer folx in Astoria. And the drag show was sooooo much fun, and I enjoyed every second of it. For the brunch, I had the kween burger. Burger is something that I rarely order in restaurants, but I decided to give it a try. This burger was thic af. The meat was good, and the little sweetness from the bacon tomato jam was top notch. I replaced the fries with sweet potato ones, and they don't upcharge you for it. I legit would come back just for the burger. read more

Kween is such a fun and beautiful environment. They create such a safe space for everyone to be themselves and to let loose. The owner is gracious to all and makes sure to applaud the waitstaff, bartenders, kitchen staff, etc. There is also a family tree on the wall that shows all the workers. I've never seen anything like that before. Drag brunch is always a blast especially when Cissy is there! Food is really good too! read more

I do not travel out to Queens enough & I think I may have finally found my reason to. First of all, the place is SO cute. I enjoyed sitting at the bar - even with the most fabulous drag brunch going on, the service was on point! I will definitely be back, there are never enough queer places to be in NYC. :) read more
