If you haven't been to the new Kit Kat, it has an amazing new location with more space and fully decked out. I had the smash burger which was excellent. The performances were also top notch. I was very excited to see the amazing Abigail Beverley Hillz who is not only a beautiful, incredible performer but also a strong advocate of the intersex community. It is definitely a fun place to check out on N Halsted.

Love the new decor. The entertainers are breath taking as always. They make my soul smile. Waiter was handsome. Did not have too much knowledge of food and drink menu. Therefore no upsales were made. Food was not speaking the gospel to me. Lol I'm a massive foodie. This fall winter menu is a no go. I'm here for the girls. I ordered a salad and my date ordered the steak fritter. Fast service, clean establishment. Friendly staff. My ultimate favorite food on this menu is the appetizer of the fried calamari. Order the fried calamari , gin and tonics and watch the show.

Been there a few times since they moved to their new location (and slightly changed the name). The drinks are really good, my favorite is the Key Lime martini, but they can make pretty much any drink you like, of course. The food is great also, the cheese plate, the calamari, and especially the smash burger! But of course, the reason people go is for the entertainment, and they've really broadened the talent now, it's not just the divas, but also singers and ballet and more. Bring your small dollar bills, but they also have someone walking around to make change before the show starts. Friendly staff tops it all off.

We came here to celebrate my mom's 84th birthday. Everything was excellent from beginning to end. The queens are high quality performers that made it a wonderful experience for my whole family. The service was outstanding, everyone was friendly and caring. The crowd was fun and happy. I love the venue spacious but cozy and very well kept. The owner and chef came around and chatted which I loved. The show was so fun, interactive and well done. I'm very grateful for all the love everyone gave to my mom and celebrating her day. She had never been to a show before and they all made it positively memorable. Thank you. 🙂

I had such a great time at Kit Kat Lounge! The whole place has such a fun and welcoming vibe from the moment you walk in. The drag shows were incredible — full of energy, talent, and so much personality. You can tell the performers really love what they do, and it makes the whole experience unforgettable. I ordered the avocado toast and it was seriously one of the best I’ve had — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly put together. The drinks were great too! The staff was super friendly and attentive without ever feeling pushy, and they really helped make the night even better. The atmosphere is colorful, upbeat, and just full of good energy. It’s the perfect spot to go with friends, celebrate something, or just have a fun night out. I can’t wait to go back!

I went to the Kit Kat Club at its new location and I could not have been more impressed. The space is beautiful and offers an elevated experience. The food is fantastic and the martinis are, of course, perfection. The entertainment was great. There’s a reason why Kit Kat is Chicago’s Original Drag brunch - they were the first and they are still the best! I highly recommend.

We had been to the previous location but never enough to consider ourselves regulars. But this new location really is a huge step up. I love the art deco theme and the screens on all the walls really add a pop of personality. I'm not a huge drag person, but from what I've seen on the few times I've been, performances here do seem to be a little elevated - they're also bringing in other types of performances beyond drag too so that'll be exciting to try out. So many different types of martinis and all of them we've tried have been great, but I think the real standout is the new food - very high quality and plated with presentation in mind. Pricey, but the value seems to be there. Service has been excellent every time we've been.

If you’re in Chicago and haven’t been to KitKat, you’re seriously missing out! From the moment you walk in, the vibe is electric — colorful lights, amazing music, and an energy that makes you feel like you just stepped into the heart of the city’s nightlife. The drag performances are absolutely phenomenal — fun, fierce, and full of personality. Every performer brings something different, and the crowd is always hyped. Pair that with creative cocktails (their martinis are next-level!) and delicious food that’s way better than you’d expect from a supper club, and you’ve got yourself an unforgettable night. What really makes KitKat special is the atmosphere — it’s inclusive, vibrant, and full of joy. Whether you’re out celebrating, on a date, or just grabbing drinks with friends, you’ll leave smiling. ✨ Tip: Make a reservation early, go for dinner before the show starts, and don’t be afraid to dance a little — everyone does!

With my boyfriend, with friends, or both, we visit Chucky! He's a bartender that will make your dreams come true. We also fell in love with the new bartender, James. The martinis were so delicious and the service was EXCELLENT. We couldn't have asked for a better night out.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve been going to Kit Kat Club since June of 2010, and it’s been a favorite of mine for years. The entertainment has always been top-notch — fun, high-energy, and consistently excellent. The menu is solid, with something for everyone, and the quality has remained great through the years. The new location is absolutely stunning — beautifully designed, well thought out, and incredibly comfortable. It still has all the charm and energy that make Kit Kat so special, just elevated to a whole new level. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out. This place never disappoints!

We were visiting from Las Vegas and heard this was a must see. The martinis were delicious but what made the night even better was the staff. They were WONDERFUL!!! Chris, Andres, and Romage were so welcoming and pleasant. The performer was very good at pulling you in to her performance. If you haven't been....you should go. I definitely recommend it!

The bar was nice and clean and the performers were awesome, this was actually my first drag show and I'm definitely glad I went here for my first time. The drinks are pretty good and they're nice and strong, and the best part is unless you're in the middle of a performance it's quite enough that you can talk with the people who are right at your table.

Very fun! I booked a table for Sunday brunch and arrived there right on time and ended up seating at the bar, so that wasn't great. But on the other hand, our glasses were filled by the bartender all the time. He was amazing, by the way. Food was also very nice. The place is beautiful. There were only two "performers": the hostess and one other performer. Both were very talented and the hostess was very entertaining. They offered change for bigger notes before the show started (they also accepted cards). Overall a very nice experience, I recommend it!

This review is for their weekend drag brunch. We attended their drag brunch this past Saturday, and had a mother-lovin' BALL!!! Kit Kat is not a big location, so I was curious how it would go, but it was perfect. There were a group of seven of us, and we were seated in the back area. At first I was worried we would miss a lot of the show, but they had a huge screen, so you don't miss any of the front performance, AND the performers did a great job of not ignoring us in the back too! We were able to change our big bills for singles before the show for tips. First course were little donut balls, and they were super tasty. Next Caesar Salad, also delicious. For my entrée I chose the breakfast platter. I am super picky when it comes to grits, but they did a great job with them being well seasoned, creamy, and cheesy. Eggs were perfectly over medium (so many places mess this part up). Sausage and the house jam were my favorite. The performances were AWESOME! There were two performers, but they did a great job cycling through different looks. I also loved that when they performed they didn't just do one song at a time. For instance, when one came out as Lady Gaga, she performed a few Lady Gaga songs, not just one. The queens were GORGEOUS, the outfits were amazing, the show was IMMACULATE. It was my daughter's first drag brunch, and she had a blast. She even got a lap dance from the male stripper. My mimosa glass was NEVER empty the entire time. I also tried an espresso martini flight, which had a peanut butter, a mocha, and a regular espresso martini. All 3 were good, but my favorite was the regular espresso martini. The performance went about two hours, with the option to stay & partake afterwards with the performers. I don't know about parking because I knew I was getting tipsy, so I did ride share. It's in Wrigley, so in the off-season parking should be ok.

There are so many things to say about this place. They always serve great dishes, looks, and cocktails. The drag brunch was great. It was a little hard to see most of it sitting in the back room. But never forgotten by our server and our bottomless mimosas were never empty thanks to him. Would happily go back.

Kit Kat Lounge is always a guaranteed good time! I came here for a friend’s birthday, and we were laughing, dancing, and hyping up the queens all night. The performances are next level—these queens know how to WORK the room. The martinis? Dangerous in the best way. I had the cotton candy one, and it went down way too easy. If you’re looking for a place with nonstop energy, killer performances, and drinks that keep flowing, this is it.

The Drag Brunch was a great time! The Chicken and Waffles was a generous portion and delicious. The staff was attentive and my waiter tried his best to find me and alcohol- free drink and succeeded with OJ. My one suggestion would to be have a mocktail/hot beverage selection.
