Went here with Justin, Brett, Mike, his sister and her friend. Pretty bad stand up comedy. Nice space. Place was pretty empty.
Great place, was there this evening and the comedians were hilarious. Would return for another show.
I attended Monday night's "New Talent" Show. I RSVPed as I was advised; I went in support of Comedian, Cam Hebb. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The waitstaff was attentive. The drinks were strong. The show was full of skilled comics aside from the wonderful Cam Hebb. I'd go back
Been there twice and it's good but my second visit left me wanting better comics for a Saturday.
It's a great venue. Not a bad seat in the house unless you arrive late. The food is good. I had their burger and fries. The food is way better than Carolines!! The staff and servers are friendly, accommodating, and give excellent service. The drinks were okay. I think they use well liquor. I didn't feel it and got a headache (usually well liquor gives me headaches). I'm definitely going back.

Visited the weekend before Christmas, was very crowded. Comedians were overall funny, drinks are priced reasonably. My one complaint is that if you go with only one person, there's a good chance you'll need to share a table with strangers.
Awesome talent! Nice staff clean place! Definatley would go here again!!!
Went here last night for the first time. Great experience. Relativist affordable for a date or with a group of friends. It was a random Monday night with some local comics but randomly Jerry Seinfeld popped in and so did Jim Gaffigan. That s NY for you. They were both in the neighborhood so decided to come by and try some of their new content. Overall great club and experience.
One of the great comedy clubs in New York. Great venue, friendly staff, good prices. The "check-in" process is a bit of a mess with people registering their ticket and then everyone having to line up in the entrance before the show starts. It's a really small space so things get a bit hectic. Other than that it's clean, they have great comedians and once you're in you can just chill and enjoy the show.
One of the go-to spots for standup. Two drink minimum.
Surprise guests pop up to work on material. A haven for up-and-commers.
Had an amazing time. Great service, watched the comedy juice show and all four of us walked out with big smiles. Well worth the small cost.
We attended the show to see Aries Spears it was amazing.
Enjoyed a lot there, This is a fantastic club with delicious food, drinks and amazing comedy.
Comedy clubs are a place you need to visit when in NY. Gotham has always good comedians and in my case even the emcee was hilarious. The food is mostly diner food and decent. Of course there is the usual two drinks minimum (plus admission) that brings up your total to at least 80$ a person for an hour of enjoyment. Anyway an overall good experience.
I loved the XPerience I'm all about #WearableX these days and #CarlosMencia's performance just kept building the audiences energy in the room from begining to end. The club was hot especially the girl at checkout door. Fabulous person at the door. Then of course you have the waiters. Those waiters really know how to be on their feet. I asked for a #Heineken and Bam it was right there. I always wanted a #Disneys #Fantasia themed dinner theatre. I love it when waiters can move so fast it's as though the drinks just flew themselves to the table. I really want to come back and see that #JoshWolf. He is like the hottest besides #ChelseaHandler.
A line-up of the funniest.ever.comics, a spacious room (by Manhattan standards at least - there was plenty of elbow room), good service and decent drinks. We laughed so hard that my face is still hurting two days later. A win all the way!
I love this place so much! I have been going and also sending my guests here for years now and everyone always has a fantastic time! Never had to deal with super long line in the cold/heat. They have a great little bar to hit before or after the show and the food is great as well!
This was a great way to spend a Saturday night in NYC! Had an amazing time, couldn t stop laughing. Would absolutely go back!
Big venue. Easy accessible to get into and to seat. Slow on getting us drinks. Mix tape comedy show was ok. Not too impressed with the comics. Nice that they offer food even though it is pricy.
This place is like no other and the experience has always been fantastic for me. I have never left disappointed and one of my favorite activities in New York. Highly recommend
Nicest comedy club I have attended. Luxurious tables and seating (for a comedy club) and very attentive staff. We purchased a VIP package to see Orny Adams and it was more than worth it. Since drinks are at New York City prices, the price of the VIP package was not out of line (note that there is a two drink minimum). Size of the club is just right - big enough for a good crowd but still intimate, as comedy should be. Very different from a Las Vegas showroom. Highly recommended.
Service was. Very good.
2 comedians were very good but the main one was awful next time i will read up reviews
Pretty good place, the student comics were not that funny but they weren't that bad either.
Great time, good shows, food good, drinks good and everyone looks to have a great seat. Lots of big names have been on this stage. Great night out.
All I can say is if you have any sense of humor you should make a point of going to a show here. Good service and comedy was really solid. The headliner had us laughing and wanting more!
Always love this club. Fun atmosphere and good vibes all around. Usually a lot of tourists in the audience. So happy i was able to be in the first ever VR comedy show.
Really like this comedy club, usually great comics can be found here! Friendly staff, and Okima in the front that gives you your seats is always sweet, friendly and helpful!
1 of the Best Comedy spots I've been to. The drinks are very good
Great comedy club. Comics were really funny and miles better than another club my wife and I visited. Drink prices are reasonable so don't be put off by the 2 drink minimum order. Only minor negative is if your sat in one of the rear rows then you get the servers for the front rows constantly walking in front of you which can be a little frustrating.
I really liked this space. The way it's setup there really isn't a bad seat. And they don't pack you in too tight like a lot of clubs. I'd go back for sure.
All the comedians were very funny. The environment was dark and romantic with the candles with your date. The food was only appetizers, very pricey but delicious. I would go back again
One of the top 3, if not the #1 comedy club in NY. Went twice in the past two weeks & seeing a great show both times. Had the additional pleasure of getting to see both George Wallace & Jerry Seinfeld perform as surprise guest on both new talent nights. Good prices, funny comedians & friendly staff make for a great night out.
Same or very similar lineups to Comedy Cellar. Different vibe, but a lot of fun. Better food too.
Fun evening of open mic with a surprise guest.. Jerry Seinfeld.
Fun. Wish they had better food. You do have to share tables with strangers
One of my favorite comedy clubs in the Manhattan. It's a pretty nice comedy club with good food and drinks. Gets a bit busy, we've had to share table with other couples on occasion.
First rate venue for stand up comedy. Table service is friendly and efficient and food and drinks are surprisingly good. Hihjly recommended on all counts.
Lots of sexist and transphobic jokes. I expected better for a big city. My wife told me that the lineup outside the ladies room was an ongoing conversation about all the sexist and marginalizing jokes.
Second (mandatory) round of drinks had about the half the booze as the first round.
Best comedy club i have ever been too. Saw Joey Diaz, what a tremendous night.
Great place! Well maintained facility with awesome service and great comedians. Two drinks minimum as usual, but great choices to have an extra! Food is not bad, as well!
Awesome show last night. The drink menu was a bit pricey but thats expected in the city. We had a surprise appearance of Jerry Seinfeld and George Wallace. Both great sets, George was hilarious. Will definitely come back for another show in the near future
DO NOT BOTHER BUYING TICKETS ONLINE UNLESS YOU'RE SURE THE SHOW WILL BE SOLD OUT. OTHERWISE YOU'RE JUST SUBJECTING YOURSELF TO UNNECESSARY SERVICE FEES. I went on a Friday at 7pm to see Deon Cole and it wasn't too packed which was nice but early shows are usually like that. The ticket was $35 which is more expensive than normal but that's because they had a big headliner. Tickets normally start at $12 but it won't be a known comedian. For $15 the comedian is a little more known but it's all really subjective. Now for a headlining comedian the prices actually start at $26 but the bigger the name the bigger the bucks. ALSO THERE IS ALWAYS A 2 ITEM MINIMUM. Anyway, I had a really great time and the waitresses and other staff were friendly and helpful. I only had a root beer which was $6 and it was gross lol. Not their fault. So I decided my second item would be a mug which was also $6 so I didn't waste money. Deon was HILARIOUS I highly recommend you go see him if you get a chance. The place is bigger and a lot more comfortable compared to the comedy cellar but I love them both.
Very upscale and well polished feeling comedy club. Definitely not your standard NYC comedy club feel, but great if that's not your thing or you want a change of pace.
A fairly nice comedy club. The headliner (Jon Lovitz) was great, but when it's $30 to get in I don't see the point of a two drink minimum.
Great show great openers. 2 drink minimum per guest. Apps are kinda expensive.
Very funny comedians. Great atmosphere with friendly staff and good drinks. Highly recommend this place.
Been there on Friday night in the basement. Usually pretty packed - if your group smaller than 4 people, you'll most likely share a table with someone. They serve food during the show and require you to buy 2 drinks.
Great venue, we had some funny comedians on our visit. They hit you with the 2 drink minimum on top of the ticket price though
The service is not the best...more than likely plan on laughing at the "star comedian" jokes..and that's about it. The servers are not attentive, and the food is mediocre, the line up comedians are really not that funny. Guess I expected more..and was dissapointed. Would have had a better time watching re-runs of #Frasier or #Martin..... #ComedyCentral at home.
Gear venue, likely to have big-name acts coming in
Two drink minimum kinda sucks. Got to see Jerry Seinfeld so that was a plus.
Good comedy club, funny comics. Security is extremely rude for absolutely no reason but whatever, I mean, why be nice to customers right?
VIP the only way to go. No lines, open bar, appetizers and great seats. The Two shows I've been to were both great.
Loved it! My spring rolls was tasty along with my drink. Enjoyed Tony Rock !
