I didn't rate food because I didn't eat there. I have been here on several occasions for live music, and each show has been fantastic in spite of the morons holding cell phones over their heads. It's a small, intimate venue with excellent acoustics.

Kool spot to have have a drink and chill. Pool tables and darts in the back. Younger crowd but overall dope spot to have fun and dance

Very hit or miss, I’ve had the bouncers be rude half of the times I’ve been. The cocktails are overpriced for what they are, but they usually play good music.

The show was great, and the atmosphere was too. The service left much to be desired, though. All the other staff was very friendly.

My wife and I went to see Hurray for the Riff Raff on a Sunday night. We got there early had a couple of good slices of pizza and a couple of Coors drafts and we’re off to a great start! The place has a chill dive bar vibe. There are some booths and quite a few tables to sit at and eat or drink. There are a couple of pool tables and a shuffleboard table to pass the time. The concert venue is pretty small and the sound was good. Had a great time and look forward to coming back next time there is a show we want to see there.

Unfortunately, probably the worst venue I've been to in 30 years of attending shows.It is very difficult to find parking nearby with no recommendations from the venue. The venue itself is unsigned from the street down an alley-- fortunately a stranger who was as lost as us read a text from a friend who described how to find it. A single level of floor with no pitch and a short stage means poor views for shorter fans who will be lined up deep due to the very narrow width. Finally, the bar appears to book multiple acts per night, leading to a rushed feel for anyone attending a show early.After the time it took to find parking and the bar itself, we missed the openers and part of the act I'd been waiting months for. The bar also doesn't serve doubles (and I have to agree with the other reviews that the drinks they served were noticeably weak).So why not one star? I gave a bonus star for those that might appreciate the grimy, speakeasy vibe.

I finally made it to this venue for my first show there and the staff was nothing short of incredibly and kind. Gaby (not 100% on the spelling) was more than informed, able to answer all of my questions and made the venue feel incredibly welcoming!

I went for a concert, I had question’s months prior unfortunately they don’t answer the phone nor did they get back to me via email.The Entrance is In an Alley way so it was a little hard to find.The staff was INCREDIBLY nice ! The show room itself is a small, clean, intimate venue. The Lady that helped me when I was having an issue with a rude aggressive person in the crowd, THANK YOU ! Handled the situation perfectly, I felt safe and heard. Looking forward to the next show here !

This is my kinda place: busy, edgy, my kids would call it “grimy” as a compliment! FastMoving bartenders serve excellent cocktails in a rapid pace. We didn’t see any live acts but DJs were very good. It started with all dressed up crowd from science convention & changed to trendy mixed urban youth.We were visiting from out of town andliked it so much that we came next night again, only this time we were surrounded by mostly queer African American crowd that came to dance & support the DJ: it was fun to watch. If you want it real, you have to come here!BTW, 5 ⭐️ for food is obvious given for drinks here!
