House of Comedy & Jazz

"Comedy show was good. We laughed. The decor is nice and simple. Like the black and white portraits all around the room and black decor with white bar. Food left a lot to be desired that is reason for rating. They didn't have at least 3 things from off their menu. We would go back."

"I waited almost a week to write this review because I didn’t want it to be impulsive. But here I am, still disappointed with my experience at this place. As a small business owner myself, I tried really hard to give benefit of doubt but House of Comedy continued to fail. I attended an event being held there on a Thursday evening. I met a couple of girlfriends and we planned to have drinks and dinner and enjoy our evening. When you first walk in it smelled like sewage. We arrived at 6:00, ordered drinks almost immediately and actually paid $100 to sit on the couches. You’d think our service would be VIP-like. We received our two alcoholic beverages at 6:35. A gin and tonic with a splash of juice and a lemon drop. The gin and tonic had no juice and the lemon drop had no lemon. Both drinks looked identical, clear. By that time our third friend had arrived and she immediately ordered a drink and we were ready to order dinner. There was a full menu but they had the bare minimum to serve. They didn’t even have fries. No nachos. No hamburgers. No to several other things as well. We asked what we could get and it was simply: wings. One plus was that we were able to sub the fries for Mac and cheese and that was actually decent. The food came out at 7:10 and, remember the drink the third friend ordered? She still hadn’t received it. Therefore, she canceled that and ordered a sprite. The sprite came in a glass and had zero fizz. It was flat as water. I tasted it to confirm. She then asked for a different soda and said to bring it in the can. Again, flat as water. It was as if the drinks had been sitting on the shelf for a year. And yes, she was still charged for these flat drinks. Since we knew we couldn’t get anymore drinks, we each got a water. One was sweating cold, the others were room temperature. How does that even happen and how can you serve them that way to the same table? The event itself was lacking and the venue experience made things even worse. I just don’t understand how a place that serves food would run out so early for an actual event. An event that we PAID to attend. Where did the money go? It obviously didn’t go towards food or staffing. This was a complete waste of an evening. I left hungry and disappointed. I won’t return- at least without bringing my own food and drinks inside. You can’t trust they’ll be able to serve either."

"Went for an event they ran out of a few menu items within the first hour. Slow service and the bartender likes to put triple sec in vodka sodas. Pretty pricey but the event was nice and they had decent ambiance. I may eat before I come next time."

"ZERO STARS! Do NOT come to this establishment ever! We experienced the worst day on Mother's Day! GHETTO Management, we pre-paid $53 per person for a party of 12 and never received FOOD! The server broke down and told us that she wasn't getting paid for the day. We sat for over 2 hours with 3 wings and lemonade. The music was so loud we were screaming trying to talk to each other. No one ever apologized. We left! Then the ghetto sketchy security guard asked us for money while we left. The AUDACITY! The floor was so sticky like its never been cleaned before. DO NOT EVER COME HERE. VERY GHETTO HORRIFIC!!!!"
