New Years show with headliner Dana Gould. Venue good. Food very good. Opening host really funny. Dana Gould as the headliner did not go over well. He even admitted that he was hearing crickets. He missed the mark with the audience by spending the first half of his show on American politics and California fires.

We held our company Christmas party here on Saturday. The service was great, The food ok definitely not hot and the prime rim was very grissely with hard peices in it. The host and the warm up comedian were great. But the headliner was not so great. Actually very disappointing. And where they had us seated was kinda far from the stage considering that we booked back in August, two of our tables c...

They offer 4 “types” of fri...

Always a blast coming to shows here. Food is surprisingly really good with lots to choose from (we had their tempura shrimp and flatbread pizza), drinks are solid and there's plenty of seating with good views even for sold out shows.
Shows run Tue–Sat year-round. Book holiday and weekend shows early as they sell out fast.
