The food and service were great. Benji is such a great comedian and MC. The lineup today August 16 was excellent. Lots of fun and laughs with friends.

We came to see Wes Barker who was not only funny but quite good at magic as well. It was a fantastic evening. Would definitely recommend!!

This is a great place. Have the food a 5 star. It's bar snacks but they're good. Staff is fantastic. Atmosphere is great. Come to have fun or don't come. It's a show so watch and don't participate unless they make you part of the show.

A night in the Howard Johnson basement in the janitor closet, what's not to love.
$40 to $50 per person. Drink less pay less.

I recently tried Food by Dev and was blown away by the flavors and quality. Every dish was made with so much care .The portions were generous, and the presentation was impressive too. I highly recommend it if you’re looking for tasty, well-prepared food that feels comforting and fresh. Will definitely be ordering again!

What a cool spot, a real speakeasy here in Winnipeg!
Attended a show here that didn't disappoint. I didn't order food but the orders going out looked and smelled amazing. The service was fantastic and didn't take away from the show.
They also have a fantastic and delicious mocktail menu for those of us that don't enbibe!
