5 star everything! Let me start with the service. Ashley was our server and she’s amazing. I mentioned to Ashley my wife and I were celebrating our 10th anniversary. She went above and beyond to make sure we had a great night. The food was delicious. I really loved the pork belly. Complimentary bubbly and desert was provided to us which was nice surprise. After dinner we took our drinks downstairs and was seated front row directly in front of the mic stand. The supper funny host TaTa immediately asked “whose 10th anniversary is tonight” and shouted us out. That was wonderful. Every single comedian on the 10pm bill of Jan10,2026 was hilarious. We were cracking up the entire show. I can’t say enough good things about this place. Thank you so much for taking such great care of us and making sure we had a memorable evening.

Had the best night at The Stand last night — such a great reminder of why this place is a NYC comedy staple. The show was hilarious, the room was buzzing, and the whole experience felt seamless from start to finish. Huge shoutout to the staff who truly made the night for us. Ivan, the manager, went above and beyond to accommodate our group and made everything feel effortless and welcoming. T, our server, was fantastic — attentive, friendly, and perfectly paced (especially during a packed comedy show, which is no small feat). And Madison, the hostess, was so helpful with adjusting our reservation mishap!. It’s rare to find a venue that nails both top-tier comedy and genuinely thoughtful hospitality, but The Stand does exactly that. You feel taken care of without it ever feeling forced or transactional — just good people doing their jobs really well. Already looking forward to our next night back. Highly recommend for a fun, easy, laugh-until-your-face-hurts kind of evening.
