A great venue to catch live music! The venue is set up so that every seat is a good seat. I loved the acoustics. Sometimes you attend a live music event and the acoustics is not good. I could hear every note that Con Funk Shun put out from the stage. The menu says one drink minimum. I like that we ordered our drinks and seldom were bothered by the waiters/waitresses during the show. If you are going to attend a show, consider making reservations for dinner, because you will have priority seating. I look forward to attending again!

We do come here for a movie as the theater is big and well-maintained. Come for the big screen and big sound, and the neighborhood is great for finding a meal. Parking a little difficult.
