We went on a whim, fairly cheap tickets and booked last minute for that evening. Fantastic comedians which were all hilarious and we later looked up were actually pretty famous, with many of them having done shows on Netflix or on Youtube. 5 comedians over about 90 minutes, the place was packed and everyone was in good spritis (no heckling). There was a two drink minimum but I am not sure how/if they were policing it. Decent food their as well.

The closest thing to a standard comedy club vibe for all the major ones in LA. Comfortable seating with plenty of space. Good selection of drinks and food. Probably the cleanest and well kept club out of the major ones in LA. Nice bar area to hang out before the show.

A little pricey but well run comedy club with top performers and good food. Racer 5 is $9 a pint so not shafting you, but not a discount.

W paid $40 for two dinner+show tickets and I think it was a bargain. The food was fine, nothing special, but are you really coming to a legendary comedy club for the grub? We had a great table and weren’t jostling for space with our neighbors as I’ve had happen elsewhere. The comedians were funny, we laughed, we drank, we had a great evening in an iconic club. Totally worth it!

We visited Hollywood Improv to see Kevin Smith. Like most reviews mention, all mobile phones are sealed away during the show in a little pouch, and there is a long wait afterwards to get the pouches unlocked before leaving, which I found to be inefficient. The food and drink are both expensive, especially with an enforced 2 drink minimum, but the staff are friendly enough.

My son and I went here to check it out. DCM 21. It’s a small venue and the the troup interacts with the audience. The cost is reasonable for a one hour show. Overall it was fun!

Food is not why you come here. It’s not terrible but passable. Drink prices are just below expensive. All cellphones are placed in an individual bag that is magnetically seal during the show. Your enjoyment will be a function of the entertainment. We had Jay Mohr and Jingles. Jingles spent his whole time making racist comments about whites and Mohr spent his time talking about men making love together and woman’s private parts. Neither was funny. A waste of an evening.

The food is very good, if not great. BUT... $15 for a burger and fries? Really? Portions aren't that great and prices are very high. $5 for coffee!!! Then again, whatever you pay for anything... is 2 - 4 times more than it should be. On the guest check, it give you tip suggestions: 18%, 20% and now 22% WTF? 10 or 15% isn't good enough for greedy people? Should we just double the check for the tip? It's so outrageous! Leaving $5 for a $40 food bill is plenty, considering the food is 2x as much as it was 10 years ago and $5 is plenty. We should not have to pay a wait staff's rent!! Enough of the rant.... wait staff excellent.

I enjoyed the room, the service and obviously the show. I must say, the staff was amazing. I would do it again, especially for the price.

Saw Joe Rogan and a bunch of other people. Got there early and we sat right up front. Bar is super fun. You can't go wrong going here.
