Came here spontaneously and it was an amazing night. Good: - The place is very well run - we got seated quickly and had great seats for the VIP show for Bryan Callen - The food comes really quickly! The ordering process is very simple - I liked the way the show was run - there's no down time and we were entertained the whole time - Very nice venue, clean and ample space between people - Tasy mozzarella sticks! Super tasty and good texture - The nachos were very filling Bad: - The food is a bit expensive and not sure that it's worth eating here instead of elsewhere - the dessert was a bit too sweet for me Overall this was a great comedy show and I would come back again!
A fair amount of recent reviews have been negative, so I wanted to leave an honest review and address issues others have had: - Staff: Overall, very friendly and efficient. The only criticism I have is a couple of staffers kept trying to get fairly large guests to squeeze into the booth next to us, which had less room than the others. To their credit, they eventually found other seats for them. - Food: We had the burger egg rolls and boneless chicken wings, both were fine. The one disappointing item was the key lime mason jar dessert. It basically tasted like just whipped cream and crust, hardly any key lime taste. All orders are done through your phone; orders usually came out quickly. - Seating: We arrived about an hour before the show and were seated towards the back of the main floor. Yes, you'll probably have to share a table on the main floor if you have less than 4 people in your party. Not a big deal. We did not experience the negative things others have mentioned (cold food, rude staff, getting hassled over the 2-item minimum). Overall, we had a great time and have no problem coming again.
