    They were super accommodating when we had to reschedule our reservation last-minute due to a medical emergency, and they let us move it to a later night! The show was incredible and hilarious, and it was without a doubt a night to remember. The food was also delicious and exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend it to anyone in the area!

    The number one entertainment spot in San Diego for any event, hands down. Lips is a whole vibe and I’m here for it. I’ve taken family and friends four times this year and it’s been spot on at all times. They have both Brunch and Dinner. I’m looking forward to Bingo nigh, so sign up today and don’t miss out.
