(category is: EMOTIONAL GLITTERBALL MELTDOWN) 💅✨🌈 Honey. Listen. I came to Lisbon for the pastéis, the sights, maybe a little romance... but I stayed for Finalmente Club. From the moment I walked in, it was giving sequins, smoke, and scandal 💃💋 The queens? DIVINE. Like, serve me talent, serve me body, serve me wigs so snatched they filed a restraining order. I saw splits, dips, death drops, and one queen who made me question my entire gender identity and also my credit score. And then. Baby. It happened. One of the queens stepped out into a single spotlight... ...and started singing "Never Enough" from The Greatest Showman 🎭 I’m telling you right now, I had goosebumps on my goosebumps 🫠 People were frozen. Drinks halfway to mouths. One guy in the back was crying into his mojito. The queen BELTED those notes like her life depended on it. Like the ghosts of Broadway past were inside her, weeping and clapping. And I? I was a wreck. Mascara running. Hand over heart. Soul levitating. The energy? Electric, Living. Screaming. Hugging strangers. The drinks were strong enough to make me believe I could sing Whitney and hit the high notes. I couldn’t. But I tried. Honestly, if you haven’t been to Finalmente, are you even gay? Are you even alive? It’s not a club, it’s a spiritual awakening in heels 👠✨ Ten out of ten. Would sell my soul, my wig glue, and my ex’s Netflix password to go again. 💄🎤👑 And if they sing Never Enough again, I’ll be right there, in the front row, ugly crying like it’s the Met Gala of my...
Read moreThey put on a solid show! I’m from Los Angeles and so I am used to some great drag queens. These girls did not disappoint! We got there at 1030 for our reservation. As we sat down we thought “this room is empty why did we need a reservation?” Show starts at 11, slowly tables started to fill. As with every drag show we have ever been to the girls started a little late, around 11:15. At this time the club was packed and ready for a show! (Glad we made those reservations). The queens interacted with the crowd before intermission (in Portuguese so we had no clue what they were saying, but we are in Portugal so of course they spoke their language) and the crowd was having a great time. Having seen many of RuPaul’s girls perform I would say these queens were up there! Thanks for the great...
Read moreRude and racist. Yes we were five minutes late for the table at 10.35pm. But without a fuss refused to serve us to drink or allowed to stay in but kept letting more and more people in way after us to stand. They were being served without a table, not us!
Was blatant racism and ethnocentrism. One of the worst experiences I've ever had to face on a holiday. Furious and total BS.
If you read other reviews see many others have had negative experiences so the response below is pretty pathetic.
Have booking online if this tiny venue is so 'popular'!!
Many people came and were served after us. And were still entering the premises when we left!
We were not rude but the manager was appalling. What a nasty man perhaps letting the venue down.
Look at the sarcastic and snide response! What a snide...
