    We loved this brunch! I brought my brother and a couple of friends in town because of the guest drag performer and we had such a blast! The staff were very attentive and the food was excellent. This wasn’t my first brunch at Rise, so it’s awesome that it’s continued to be even more fun every time! Would definitely recommend it!

    Drag brunch was fantastic! We got there right at 12:15, and were seated quickly. They also started us right off with drinks, explaining the 3 different drink tier packages. I stuck with the Tier A basic package and was not disappointed! You can switch from the different drinks offered in each package, which was nice. The food was also quick and delicious! I ordered the burger and it was cooked to order, which I appreciated. The drag queens were fantastic and worked the crowd the whole time. Xavier kept our drinks full the WHOLE time, and sometimes brought us two drinks at a time. We definitely recommend trying this out if you're in Hell's Kitchen area.

    Overall, this was one of the best branch experiences I’ve had in New York City. The performance was on point and the staff, DJ and food prep team were lovely to deal with.
