My first burlesque show and couldn't have asked for a better place to experience it!! My friends and I made our reservations separately but the host had already planned our seats together and we were right up front. She also made sure our souvenir photos matched each of our vibes. Lefty Lucy put on an amazing show and kept us entertained from the first moment to the last! Once she found out several guests, including one of my friends, were there celebrating birthdays she called them up to the stage and the whole place serenaded them. Food was great and reasonably priced. 10 out of 10 would recommend! Cant wait to go back!!
Went to see their LEGS comedy and burlesque show. From the moment we (my group of three) entered until leaving, the entire night was phenomenal. The hostess, bartender, comics, dancer, and even the other patrons were wonderful people. This was my first time visiting the location, but it will be on the "must-visit" list for EVERY future trip to NOLA. (You don't have to be queer to have a great time, as long as you're not a bigot!)
This place was fricken awesome! The vibes were great and the shows were fabulous. Definitely recommend coming here
Wow — what an outstanding show! New Orleans High Society completely exceeded my expectations. An important note for anyone wondering about the repertoire and vibe: as Miss Angie Z herself says, burlesque performers are strippers and they love (and appreciate) money — so active tipping during the show is very welcome, though never mandatory. The strip element is absolutely there — bright, bold, and playful — but this is so much more than a simple striptease. Live jazz, incredible singing, a rich atmosphere, fantastic burlesque performances, and so much humor. Truly laugh-out-loud moments. One small practical note: don’t expect fancy cocktails — the bar is simple with straightforward drinks, which honestly fit the vibe just fine. I loved this show far more than I expected to and I’m genuinely so happy I went. Fun, sexy, funny, and full of life — highly recommended.
Thought it was going to be a shady experience but was pleasantly surprised by the show. Absolutely hilarious show. Drinks were great. Inside the club was artistically done, very fun. Staff was welcoming and pleasant. I will definitely go back for another show. Just risky enough to be called a burlesque show but not trashy. All the girls made me and my friends laugh.
