- MBMargarita B1 day ago5.0Great place for live entertainment! We had the privilege to meet Rene Vaca and it was the greatest most exciting night! Great atmosphere and the staff are amazing
- GPGerald PeddyJan 1, 20264.0My first time at the Improv I Saw Jay Oakerson on New years Eve, they were sold out and we showed on up late. But still had ample space and a decent view. Staff was running around constantly and keeping complsure. A great time to wrap 2025.
- SCSharon Cook-bahrJan 1, 20263.0Attended the New Years eve. I was not impressed. Sink in women's bathroom over flowing, floor a wet mess. I notified staff who said they knew about it. No wet floor signs or nothing was placed to warn guests. Regarding the comedy, whomever arranged the acts really does not cater to those in the crowd. Low quality humor. Not impressed at all.
- JPJennifer PatzDec 29, 20255.0Went to the Gabe Rutledge show here. Really wonderful place. Good food and drinks. Nice place to have a night out.
- SMSameer MeerDec 14, 20252.0Saw Pete Holmes on Sunday night 12/14/25 after he had already done multiple shows that weekend. Both the opening comic and Pete mentioned there were technical issues at earlier shows, which makes it more frustrating. This is a corporate venue, and after five shows those problems should have been fixed. Instead, they carried into the Sunday show. The two drink minimum also felt excessive when a club soda costs $7. That does not feel like hospitality, it feels like squeezing the audience. It comes off as having little respect for the customer or the artist. I came to enjoy a great comic, not to feel nickel and dimed. Disappointing experience overall.
