  Had a great time here. Went to see lavell Crawford and was actually surprised how long his set was. The 2 comedians that came out before him were not too bad either. The set up isn't bad except for each table a set of chairs are flipped towards the stage opposite of the table 🙃. So if you order drinks or food atleast 2 of the people sitting at the table will be holding their drinks and food or would have to turn around to place it in the table. Guess they had to do what they had to do for space. Cushions are pretty worn out booty was sore before the end of the show. I'd bring a seat cushion next time. Food was a joke. Chicken n waffles and boneless chicken was just chicken nuggets. Spinach artichoke dip was dry. The shrimp tempura 🍤 had a good batter but the meat was very small and somehow overcooked. We got 2 drinks, shrimp tempura, spinach artichoke, boneless chicken wings, and chicken and waffles. This came out to $175. These aren't plates may i remind you. Every meal i mentioned came out in a small square cereal bowl. Drinks came out really fast. I was impressed. I got the rum runner. Was a little to sweet with not enough alcohol. Can't speak for anything else.

  We came to see JW Longmire. It was a Thursday so not much of a line, we got there at 530pm for a 7pm show. Great show. The food is mediocre. Shrimp Tempura rubbery, fries not fresh and overly salty, burger was meh, Improve Mule had way too much lime juice couldn't really taste the ginger, watermelon margarita weak. Staff was attentive. Couldn't get table app to work, QR scan would open app but past that I couldn't get it to work. Nachos looked good if you like cheese sauce as opposed to actual cheese. If I went back I would avoid mixed drinks and stick with something pre-packaged like bottle beer and for food I think I would stick with something hard to eff up like cheese sticks.

  The Only thing VIP means is that you Stand in line to run grab a seat on the main floor, the line starts about 1.5hrs Before the show and security does Not let you sit on the floor in line, you Must stand up the entire time. Therefore, this was our FIRST & LAST time going there because my spouse uses a walker. Initially, we sat on the couch but everyone that came in after us started getting in line, now we know better than to ever go there for a show again, Not ADA friendly!

  We went to see Rogelio Ramos last night Aug 6,2026 it was so much fun. He is funny and it was so much fun to spend our date night at his comedy show. He is very humble and he took pictures with everyone and let them use their own phones. Improv is very nice and clean and the waitress were very attentive and the food and drinks are very good. Improv was understanding and polite that the comedian Sr. Rogelio wanted to take pictures and took him to a room to take the pictures. My husband and I will definitely come back to see another show from now on. 👍

  Second row table, but it was on the far end. Not a great place to sit. We were early enough to move, but we decided to settle where we were at. The show was great! Jess Hilarious was funny most of the time. The first comedian seemed to hold the mic too close to his mouth, and it was difficult to hear him. It might have been the acoustics, but JH sounded Jess fine when she elevated her voice. Service was good. Three drinks, fries, and fried pickles w/tip $75.00, tickets were $105.00. We ate elsewhere before show. Not bad! But that's subjective.
