Okay but most importantly a really phenomenal show that was entertaining, captivating, silly and moving. A good blend of local SF gems and pure good show business. There was acrobatics, singing, comedy, poetry and hot people. I'd give this 10 stars if I could!!!!

We were here for a girls evening in the city to watch the Hello San Francisco show. The show came…read morehighly recommended by a coworker. We had already had dinner before walking in so didn't get any food items or drinks so can't speak to that. I did notice throughout the show that the servers were very attentive. The building is pretty charming, old school SF and the show was pretty well done. The performers did their best, and it was very entertaining, emotional as well for us who love the city. We enjoyed all the cirque de soleil style acts, but our group felt there could have been more references to San Francisco's history, Architecture and culture woven through the show.

I was…read morehere for the long weekend and have been in a bit of a valley in terms of happiness in my life recently. I decided to head over for the Sunday night "cheaper Than Therapy" show on my own to try to pick myself up. I grabbed a liter of beer () from the bar and then we all crammed into the main stage, which was very intimate and cozy. I laughed and laughed and laughed, and I can genuinely say that I feel much better about things after going there tonight. The staff and host were all great. I think I'll make this a regular habit from now on when I visit SF. Rob.

My husband and I I saw a Friday night late show. Each of the 6 comedians were very funny. There are…read more2 reasons for the 4/5 review: The comedians , although creative and intelligent, all made multiple ageist jokes. My husband and I are cool, fun people in our 60's ... guess it's easier to punch down. Anyway, I still recommend the show. The second reason is that my drink, a manhattan, was terrible. It tasted so watered down that I would have brought it back to the bar if it wasn't so crowded.

Such a great venue for a small, local theatre!…read more There is no bad seat in here. It's intimate and fun. Their shows have no business being that good. Bathrooms are clean and service is wonderful. I love the space--it's located upstairs in a hotel near Union Square. Support local theatre! Audience skews older. I think they need to market to younger people on social media more.

I discovered this charming little theatre by accident when I saw that "M. Butterfly" (Madame…read moreButterfly) was playing here for a whole week during a very convenient time. I had always wanted to see this classic story on stage so I jumped at the opportunity. It is a small theatre so chances of a sold out show is high; definitely purchase tickets early. It is a small theatre hidden within the Kensington hotel on the second floor. There is a small bar area on the main floor of the theatre. Bathrooms were nice and clean. The front row of the balcony are the best seats and offers a perfect view of the stage; you can see everything as well as have a clear view of the actors' faces and the emotions. I think any row beyond the accessible seats you might have some obstruction from heads and may need to lean forward a little to see what's happening. I'd love to see more shows here. M. Butterfly had an excellent cast. The play was moving and enhanced so much history, culture, politics, romance, drama, gender, and sexuality.

It was an unusual ask for them to come join us on a boat for three hours, but they happily did it and definitely made the night memorable!!!! As the person managing the boat in many other instances, they made my job easy and overcame the situation when the boat's music speakers were not the best Lol. I would hire them over and over again ---they were brilliant and so talented!!!!

I went last Friday at El Rio and did not know what to expect. Most of the people that went out of…read moremy friends were male, of course, and had a great time. It's only a 30 minute show but they had beautiful ladies on stage, crude and rude acts, and a lovely host. Only $5 to get in and $3 well drinks until 8 (I think). Their drinks will get you good and buzzed although I had to stop early being the designated driver and all. Good times to be had with plenty of laughs.

My wife and I decided to go for a new comedy experience by checking out an improv show at Secret…read moreImprov Society, and we're sure glad that we did. Let's get into it... Ambiance - After getting your tickets from the ticket booth, you go down a sharp flight of stairs which dumps you out into a bar area with two large doors on both sides of the room. The room on the right-hand side is where they have stand-up comedy (Cheaper than Therapy), and the left hand side is where the Improv show takes place. You wait in the bar area until the doors open. Once you enter, there are a handful of rows of chairs (barstool style with backs) and it's general admission. It's a pretty cozy area, maybe fitting around 50 people or so if I had to guess. Before the show, one of the improv team members came around offering Oreos to guests. We did not partake, but if you like Oreos you're in for a treat. The show itself was great. There were four improv comedians and they took a bunch of crowd suggestions and tailor-made a show based around our suggestions. The show itself is about an hour and a half, but didn't feel like it was that long at all. When it ended, I was shocked that an hour and a half had passed already. Time truly does fly when you're having a great time! I would definitely return again as we had a blast and really enjoyed the quick wit the improv team had to offer. I would highly recommend checking them out!

Also it was good that we got there a bit early in time to get drinks (a nice large selection).

"Actors" were very personable and talented--so much fun--we will reco to all SF friends and family

Loved the cozy, intimate nature of this venue and comfortable seatings…read more We visited for the Demetri Martin Quick Draw Tour, and it was a perfect size for a standup comedy show. Demetri was able to engage with the audience in ways that aren't typically possible in a larger venue (like the Masonic). Note that the venue can be hard to find, especially if the event was advertised as being at the "Palace of Fine Arts." The Theater is around the corner, and there are very limited signs. Like many reviewers, we spent time wandering around trying to find the entrance. It is on the west side of the venue, not near the famous dome. If you're driving/Ubering, be sure to enter the destination as the Theater, and not just the Palace of Fine Arts, as the entrance are on opposite sides of the property. There is very limited food and drink offered, and you're not allowed to bring any food into the auditorium (covered drinks are allowed). This was a bit of an inconvenience for a show running 7-9pm right during dinner time. We were hoping for at least some popcorn for during the show. Bathrooms are small and awkwardly laid out, leading to long lines, confusing, and tight spaces. This is made worse by the fact that each row is ~50 seats across with the only aisles on the ends - this makes it very hard for anyone not seated on the very ends to leave during the show to go to the restroom. As a result, there was a massive rush to the restroom after the show and a 20 minute wait for the men's restroom (I shudder to think how long the women's line was.

We got…read morethere an hour before the show began to walk around the area (so beautiful) & because we had issues with our tickets and needed to go to will-call. Turns out that everyone had to stand in this will-call line to get physical tickets even though they were purchased online. Seemed odd, however, show up early to avoid the line and enjoy the scenic vibe around before the show. There's free parking (after 4P I believe) super close to the theater-- literally steps. We had to lock up our phones in a pouch for this specific event but it's so beautiful indoors as well. They had a bar area that many people enjoyed. Bathrooms are a bit crammed but nothing new to venues. It's a more intimate venue. It reminds me of a large college class room. Each seat seems like a great view, even last row. We found our seats easily, space between seats are more spacious than other places, no cup holders sucks but you can put your drink under the seat if needed. Audio and lighting was good & I look forward to checking out future events here.
