The Always Lounge and Cabaret has been the highlight of our trip to NOLA. We attended 2 shows: Betsy Propane and the Accessories at the Smoke Show Cabaret. Excellent music, fun and silly. Having had so much fun with that show…we returned for Lefty Lucy’s Burlesque Bingo.This, too, was a hoot. (Think Lucille Ball trying to do burlesque.) You actually play bingo, “prizes” are given and it is non stop laughter. An excellent time was had. Both shows are early enough to see and then head over to Frenchmen’s Street to catch music sets there. Pricing is reasonable…bring plenty of $1’s. Not raunchy but a bit racy..all in good fun.

Great bar the swing nights are wonderful! Go for the class at eight on sundays. Bartenders are super sweet & bands are great. Has a small cover. They have burlesque shows in the back. I park in front of the new parking sign, I've never been towed.

I went to the Van Ella Bordella show last week, and it’s now one of my top recommendations in this unique and beautiful city. The blend of Storyville’s rich history with a comedic twist on its characters was marvelous. Mamie Dame was an absolute standout—her energy radiated a true love for where she was and what she was doing. It’s rare to see a performer put so much of themselves into their art, and the way she’s crafted her dance is mesmerizing. I had the chance to speak with her after the show and was struck not only by her natural beauty but also by her deep knowledge of history. You can feel how much she loves this city, even through its darkest days. The entire cast was incredible, but there’s no denying that Mamie will cast a spell on you. And most likely, steal your heart 🫀 Food: 5/5Service: 5/5Atmosphere: 5/5
