Blue Orchid Pan Asian Cuisine and BAR

**Saturday, January 3, 2026, 11:45 PM** A Saturday Night Staple for Music, Drinks, and Great Vibes!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Looking for a lively, welcoming, budget-friendly hangout? Try **Blue Orchid**. I went the last two Saturdays and had a blast! Among the best in town, their karaoke setup offers nearly every song imaginable—including covers and Spanish tracks. On Saturday, I sang Luis Miguel’s "Contigo Aprendi." **Supportive Crowd** Karaoke runs from 9 PM to midnight. Signup closes around 11:15 PM, but the bar stays open until about 1:15 AM, so everyone who made it on the list can perform. The mood is laid back and supportive. Shoutout to Jazz, Tommy, Howard, Devin, Ariel, Eddie, Joey, Tyler, and co-owner Q, who make the night feel like a family party. **Great Value** Drinks are a great deal, only $

First of all, LOVED the pride support! Came in for lunch with my partner. Atmosphere, staff, and food were amazing! Will be coming back. They had a cup full of pride flags by the door and I was happy I was allowed to take one home when I left. I’ll be hanging it up in my office! Parking wasn’t easy, but that’s New Haven for ya.

Awesome Thai in downtown New Haven!! Super authentic and reasonably priced. Truly a gem of a spot. The food was delicious and perfect night out with friends. They also have trivia on Thursday nights which was super fun and it’s a queer friendly space 🤩 they really make an effort to make it known that this is a safe space. They even have free condoms!

I went for drinks with some friends. I got a Red Sangria which was delicious (2x = $14)! It was affordable and strong! I'll try the food another time and they have trivia night and Karaoke! *other drinks pictured -Margarita -Lemon Drop

My favorite spot in New Haven. Amazing people. Amazing vibe. Amazing food. They've cultivated one of the safest spaces I've been in as LGBTQ+ and their karaoke scene is one of the best I've been a part of. Keep being Amazing!
