    What a fun music venue! Located in the Ameristar Casino in St. Charles it has great live music! I love to see TRIXIE Delight and they have a great dance floor to jam out on! The staff is wonderful at getting you drinks quickly. It's wonderful for large or small groups.

    The Bottleneck Blue's Bar is a great entertainment venue in the Ameristar Casino Resort complex. They have pretty good bands and entertainers that come in on a regular basis. They do not serve food, however you can get food to go at Ameristar's other restaurants and bring it in. That will allow you to get a good spot, rather than rushing through dinner and train to get it in line before the doors open. There is typically a cover charge to get in, and you can call ahead for reservations. The downside of reservations is your cover charge will be more expensive, however you are guaranteed a spot. Beverages are very reasonable and services good.

    This bar is connected to Ameristar Casino, so my initial assumption of what the place would be like wasn't great.

    I visited on a Friday night with a group of friend for karaoke, since we were looking for a…read moresmoke-free karaoke experience. It is a bit of a dive vibe inside, with mismatched chairs and Blues Brothers decor. Karaoke happened on a stage with a dance floor in front (you could walk around with the mic if you don't want to sing on the stage). There were chairs up there too if you wanted to sit down to sing. The crowd was diverse in terms of age and race, but most people were in their forties. The backup music wasn't too loud (great for conversations with your group, less great trying to hear the music while you were singing). KJs were engaging too. The bartender was very nice and efficient. There wasn't any hard cider. It's more of a well drink kind of bar and drinks are reasonably priced. Women's bathroom was clean. There are large free parking lots nearby, although one lot was temporarily closed because of a huge baseball glove in the parking area.

    I've been to this venue in the past but this tribute night I was not impressed. Located in Westport…read morePlaza next to the funny bone. They hosted a Whitney Houston tribute night. I was happy to attend but in my opinion the singer and back up dancers came up short. The band was amazing and I could have crooned to them all night. I chose the platinum package which consisted of up close seating and snacks and 2 drinks per person. The drink selection was VERY limited. I decided on vodka and cranberry and a moscato, hubby got budlight , and we still had to come out cash for an upgraded brand . Food was being ordered from Panera or Drunken fish. Not interested and a light appetizer available in the hallway. Not interested as well. Venue was very packed . We were seated like sardines and very uncomfortable if you needed to get up for any reason. Staff was nice , and artwork was beautiful. I'll give the evening a 5/10.
