Great venue for a show. I went for a drag show and comedy combo, and the energy was fun all afternoon. Service was good. There’s a two item minimum, so I ordered a strawberry lemon drop mocktail and the DC Swiss burger. The mocktail was solid. The burger itself wasn’t very seasoned, the patty tasted pretty plain, but the Swiss cheese and aioli helped bring it together. The fries were really good though. I definitely could have ordered more of those. Overall, I’d come back for the shows and the vibe. The entertainment makes it worth it.

Wonderful Comedy Club. We went for a work event and had a great time! I had the nachos and they were good. The drinks were too. I appreciate the no phone rules and how up close you feel no matter where you sit. The restrooms were clean and the staff was nice ans prompt.
