| - Dude. I've been to Lucky Cheng's in NYC several times, so when my friend decided that she wanted to see her first ever drag show (and we were in Vegas), I thought it was a great idea to bring her here!
There was a 2-fer special, which we paid for in advance on their website (this is important information for later in the story). So, my friend and I as a last huzzah got all dressed up and arrived. And we wondered if we were in the right place.
Granted it was a Wednesday night, but this is Vegas right? Party all the time? I guess not because there was barely anyone here. It was me and my friend, a scared looking couple, and a rowdy bunch of accountants. That's it.
We came in and got some drinks (not cheap people) and waited for our meal. And waited. And waited. After literally 1 1/2 hours, we got our food. I am not sure what they were doing because it wasn't a packed house. Maybe they were making everything from scratch? Not so much because the food wasn't memorable.
The show was rowdier than in NYC, and the "ladies" were very nice, but the service was haphazard at best.
The kicker of the night, was when we were leaving. All of a sudden we hear a squeaky voice yelling "Excuse me! Excuse me!" and a teetering queen chasing us down the parking lot. Here we thought we forgot something, instead she's like "I think you made a mistake with the check - there's only $12 here." We were like, no we prepaid - that's your tip. And come to think of it, it was a generous one at that.
So my experience at Lucky Cheng's Las Vegas was sub-par at best. I don't recommend this place - if you're looking for a show, there are better on the strip.
