Dinner and a show gets a maximalist upgrade at Bernard Cabaret Gourmand, the Village’s new burlesque cabaret where the action is constant and the performances happen in every direction—even overhead.
Open Wednesday to Sunday for dinner and weekend brunch, the venue blends high-impact theatricality with a shareable “chaos-style” menu and a sharp wine list of private imports. Produced by the team behind Maison Billing, the experience mixes pole dance, drag, circus arts, and live music in a darkly glamorous setting. Signature nights like Ambiance Burlesque and Folies d’un Soir bring out some of the city’s best artists in rotating acts that unfold between courses. Whether you’re in for the food, the flirtation, or the spectacle, Bernard doesn’t half-commit.
