The entertainment is presented in an “open mic” format, with both guests and employees taking the stage. You don’t have to sing if you don’t want to, but if you’re looking for a place to unwind and enjoy some live music, Don’t Tell Mama could be a great option. You can make requests for any music you would like to be performed by the servers, bartenders, and pianists.
