I had an incredible time at Levity Live on New Year’s Eve! The lineup featured Grade A talent that kept us laughing nonstop. The atmosphere was lively and festive, making it the perfect way to ring in the new year.
What truly stood out was the exceptional service. Our server, Alondra, was amazing – super attentive and genuinely friendly. She went above and beyond to ensure that we had a great time.
If you’re looking for top-notch comedy and outstanding hospitality, Levity Live is the place to be. Highly recommend for a fun night out!

Saw Cipha Sounds tonight and he was hilarious! Hope he can do a show at Coquito Blu one day. Food was great and the employees were really nice. It was a tight squeeze at the place. I felt like we were on top of each other. Again Cipha was extremely funny. Loved it!

Travis our waiter was fantastic.
The place looks great.
The food is snack size so before hand. The food was done in less than 5 minutes Chicken and Waffles were 4 small nuggets and one small waffle cut into 4 small lines.
My drink order was Boulevard Up they brought me something else because a cherry doesn't go in that drink and up means cold but no ice. I got a lot of ice.
It was my first time to this comedy club but I noticed people around me that seem as if they have been there before just ordered water, soda and stop their dates from ordering anything from the menu. You live and you learn.
