WELCOME TO CLOAK & PETAL!Where we invite you to journey into a place of both intimacy and companionshipOur concept is drawn from our name. The word “cloak” implies secrecy, inspiring our concept of a social sphere humming beneath the levels of ordinary life. “Petal” alludes to the Japanese tradition of “hanami,” when family and friends gather under blooming cherry blossoms to savor food, drinks and fellowship.Enter our space and travel underground to décor reminiscent of an abandoned Tokyo subway, a stratum of society all its own, an artist’s dream. Cross the threshold into a mystically transformed Japanese social dining lounge which appears to be an outdoor seating area, similar to a waiting platform. Sit beneath a trellis of draping vines and teardrop lights in the intimate space we’ve thoughtfully created, and feast on authentic Japanese sushi, appetizers, small plates and drinks with family and friends.Journey down to Cloak + Petal… and come unwind your soul.

    Amazing experience! I went with a couple of friends, it was our first time there and we had a really great time, the drinks were strong, the music was amazing (we love house) and the vibes were perfect. The DJ area is small but it wasn’t much of an issue, we were able to move and dance. Strongly recommend going there.

    LIPS is my fave drag venue of all time. I take friends and family here when they visit me from out of town. LIPS is high production, fantastic drag. It is a little pricey but you are paying for a real performance that is above and beyond the average drag show. I love the atmosphere the queens provide. It is such a welcoming and fun space. Come with an open mind and enjoy the best drag show of your life! The food is also really good.
