Corcada Teatre Reviews

The Stylistics and Eric Burden. Both Amazing concerts. Along with an appearance from Donnie Wahlberg! What a great evening as always at the Arcada!

I atmosphere and the history is to die for!!! The Acoustics
Are The !!!!

This place is Awesome! They have really done some work here and brought the theater up to date with the latest in lighting and sound. Nothing beats going to an old Vaudeville house ... I can't wait to see Cheap Trick in concert next month! Located in downtown St. Charles, it's so much closer and convenient than going to Chicago to catch a band. I highly recommend seeing a show here or renting the facility for your next event!

Awesome sound, extremely pleasing ambience, great performers, above average drinks, and employees and guests are very friendly. Go across the street to the Riverside Pizza and Pub to eat (great food and drinks there, too). Can't beat the experience!

Needs Updating BAD. Two tiny bathroom stalls for the women and a line 12+ people long to get in. 1 bar with no set line to get drinks. Again a crazy line with 12+ people in line. Ushers don't stop the people from rushing the stage and blocking people's view who paid a premium to sit there. Ushers not stopping people from talking loud during the concert to the point that those around the loud drunks in the back had to move to hear the concert. The mics for the first 20 minutes of the show didn't work right so you couldn't hear the singers well. Lighting was horrible when the artists moved around the stage you couldn't see them well in the corner of the stage. The air conditioning wasn't working well and fans were set up in the front. The 3 Elvis tribute artists were great along with the Fabulous Ambassador back up band. Hope the new owners put some $ into fixing this beautiful theater to attract the talent and patrons to keep it afloat.

Club Arcada and Arcada Theatre great place to eat,relax and enjoy live entertainment!

Liked the place very much but, a few people in our group got short changed at the bar later in the venue

Always a blast for my wife and I to spend a night in St.Charles. Burton Cummings should retire. SOS

Two urinals and a stall for a concert, time to upgrade. Can't get to smoking area with people lined up at bar and people waiting for the restroom

classic venue with great sound. the show was very good!

Very historic. Wonderful staff, not a bad seat in the theater.

Wow, nice place, great sightlines, sound system is up to par.. Saw Jon Anderson, and Jean Luc Ponty there, was very memorable evening ...

Great place for a concert. Balcony bar is great so I didn't have to go downstairs. Sitting in balcony is the best area to see the stage. Big screen TV helps also.

I loved this old theater. Size and setting was perfect!!

Fantastic venue for live music. Not a bad seat in the house. On the 3rd floor is Club Arcada a 1920s Speakeasy with a great selection of drinks and a very good food menu.

This is an old cramped hot venue with inadequate bathrooms and bars. Customer service however was top notch.

attended the St. Charles HOG meeting. location was pretty cool.

Great place to see concerts. Bad thing is the seats are very narrow so you feel crowded.

Great place to see a show, not a bad seat in the house

Cool atmosphere, plenty of bar access. Close to the acts, small cozy place.

Great venue!!! Sounds great and GOOD views throughout!

We love this Rock and roll venue. Ron Onesti does a super job of running the place!

Won't refund for a show they cancelled after selling tickets for 2 days.5 months ago and no reschedule.never emailed me about the cancell

Great value and venue for some great entertainment.

Fabulous show at Arcada Theatre! Always love going. Phil Vasser put on a fabulous show, along with David Nail

Dissapointed in burton Cummings show Friday night. Expected full band, not paired down living room sing along.

Greatest place to see anything live. No bad seats. Very cool step back in time.

Love the Arcada. Staff is always great. Rick is the man!

This is an awesome theater with great bands from the 60's, 70's and 80's

What a great venue to see some great performers! Thumbs up

The Theatre has alot of history, very clean. Visit the upstairs

Absolutely amazing experience. Ron is the man. Vanilla Fudge, Head East, and Iron Butterfly. What a show.
Definitely recommend.
Cheers!!

Great place to see a concert, small and intiment. The lineup of old rockers and everything in between is a tribute to Ron O's love for all types of music genre. It is an old theater, so seats are not roomy and bathroom space is at a premium, but besides those minor issues, great venue!

Great small venue sound mixing could be improved but it's a very small criticism of a great historic theater

Need to fix the heating system. Warmer outside than inside

Saw Marc Mattel singer for Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody. This guy killed it! The theater was clean and comfortable. Towards the end of the night it did get warm upstairs.

We love seeing Gino here. The sound is great, the crowd is manageable and the ticket prices are not crazy.

Saw Rick Wakeman, excellent show. Stay away from Row 11 of the main floor; the seats are lower than all in front of them and behind due to renovations.

Great venue, I almost hate to rate it because it'll be harder to get my favorite seats!

In all fairness this place is hit or miss. It is an older building that has not been renovate and updated. It is nostalgic and I know they hard try to make it appealing with the acts. We sweat our asses off in the upper section in July. If you're not a slender person, prepare for old theater size seats or sometimes folding chairs. I really respect the acts that they bring in and I'll continue to support these guys when I really want to see an artist but keep in mind the building is interesting, nostalgic but old and challenged. People are very nice and I know the owner Ron tries hard and is very hospitable. Definitely quaint in an awesome neighborhood.

Food was delicious. Service was really really friendly, but not particularly fast.

I think the soundboard operator called in sick last night.

They need to make the bathrooms bigger for the crowd they get

Excellent historic venue. Don't miss the speakeasy upstairs.

Great place to see a show, and there's plenty of shows to see here.

Please. STOP. Cluttering up my phone with this! I have NO clue where Brian's heating is. NOT been to chili's in years! NOT driving! Do you track my phone or my credit card!? STOP.

Enjoyed this old theatre, the show was awesome, staff was excellent

Great venue to see some of your favorite bands...not a bad seat in the house ..always a great time whenever I see a show here!

Always a great time. Love that Ron gets these killer band to play.
