The two item minimum has never been a problem for me with the DC swiss burger and an angry orchard coming out to about $35 after tip. I just factor that into the cost since the tickets for the show are usually pretty cheap. It can be a little tight in the room but overall great with not a bad seat in the house either time. just dont be late or the last ones in.

Recently took my husband here to see Aries Spears (great show!), it was both our first time here…read more Audience was a diverse DC crowd. Booked tickets well in advance via Vivid Seats and bought the event protection. The interior was smaller than I expected, definitely a homey feel. We arrived an hour early to pick up our tickets at Will Call, painless quick process. Host led us to our seats and was friendly. We sat close to the front. Average waiting time to get our food for a busy comedy club, the old bay fries and burrito were pretty good! Needed improvement: Our server wasn't smiling at all, did the bare minimum. My husband ordered two items that were featured in one of their combo specials and didn't notice, a great server would've pointed out that it's more cost effective to order the combo, but she didnt. left a low tip as feedback, figured that would get the message across. She then came back to ask if everything was okay with the service when we were trying to pay attention to the show- didn't feel like explaining then, so explaining here. Other servers however appeared friendlier. Pro tip: if you want to get picked on by the comedian, sit towards the front in the center, that's where it's lit and he/she and the camera can actually see you. Or the tables flanking the stage. Parking tip: the garage right next to the theatre is $17, suggest parking there rather than the pricier $25 one around the corner across the street! We realized this after. Would def come back to see another show.

Just as expected- folding chairs, intimate seating. Comfortably can seat about 100? Originally came for Interrogation but arrived early enough to catch The Best of show also. Interrogation was clever and funny. Best of show was mixed- some comics had a hard time pivoting to an audience demographic they were not expecting. Maybe rodeo brought a different crowd?

In October I went to Drunk Dracula in DC for my first Drunk Shakespeare experience, and I laughed…read moreso much. If you've never been, just know this isn't your typical theater outing--it's way more interactive, chaotic (in a good way), and just plain fun. When you walk in, there's a bar, but you don't order directly from it. Each seat has a QR code, and the staff delivers drinks right to you, which is super convenient. Once you enter the theater area, you're even given a complimentary shot to kick things off--great way to set the tone for the night. The venue itself is small and really intimate, which makes the whole experience better. There isn't a bad seat in the house. The seats along the stage are bench-style with cubbies underneath for your stuff, while the upper-level seating has stools set behind bookcases that wrap around parts of the stage. The drink menu includes themed cocktails, plus wine, beer, and spirits--expect to pay around $15 per drink. There are also light snacks, but portions are small and a bit pricey, so don't count on them to fill you up. If you do order food, the stools by the bookcases are definitely the best seats since you'll have a surface to put your plate on--otherwise, it's lap dining. As for the show itself, it was fantastic. There's a lot of audience participation, and the actors absolutely commit--including proving they're actually drinking. One thing I didn't realize beforehand is that not the entire cast drinks--there's usually one designated drinker, which honestly makes it even funnier and leads to some unforgettable moments. The performance is an abbreviated version of the story, mixed with plenty of local references that keep it fresh and relatable. The Drunk Shakespeare company also puts on other holiday-themed shows throughout the year, which is awesome. I'll definitely be back to check out Drunk Christmas Carol.

Legit live theater in an unexpected part of DC…read more If you've been around the last 20+ years, you would notice dinner theaters and old school acting abilities have died off to no talent sitcoms and overpriced cheap entertainment. Well Studio Theatre is a local spot with lots of talent and great shows. We saw Paradise Blue and it was amazing. Beyond that, this place just works. Plenty of parking. Decent place of DC. Clean bathrooms. Decent snacks and drinks. If you are a fan of live acting that is in our face, this is a great spot for dates and night outs with friends. Overall a great live theatre option.

No joke -- I really like DC Comedy Loft! After a few visits to see both big-name comics and local…read moretalent, I can confidently say it's one of my fav spots for a chill night out in DC. Having been to a number of DMV comedy venues (DC Improv, Baltimore Comedy Factory) where the whole 'two item' minimum requirement forces you to pick between a mid, under/over cooked food item and watered down $17 drink, I've been admittely blown away by how good the food/beverage offerings here are. The only caveat is the price, but hey, a comics gotta eat too! It's tucked away in a bit of an obscure corner (my Uber drivers always get confused) but the performance spaces are decently large. Just make sure you get there early to nab a good seat. At a bigger name shows, a 5-minute delay could have you craning to see the onstage talent. Bathrooms here are tiny tiny tinyyyy, and if you're above the BMI for your height, you truly might have a hard time getting in through the doors. When evaluated against the competition, I think Comedy Loft comes out pretty solid.

This place reminds me of the Punch Line San Francisco. Service is excellent and fast even when the…read morehouse is packet. Food looked good, and although I didn't try anything I mingled with fellow early arrivals and they all said the garlic wings were outstanding and one of the servers said the fried mozzarella sticks were their most popular item. The location is the previous and legendary Brickskeller, so those of us that have flowed in and out of DC over the last 25 years may find this place familiars. Anyway, your group can reserve sections or you can come alone. There's a place for everyone and all are welcomed. FYI, there's a two "item" minimum required purchase, which can be food or beverage items. Key to know that you must order these in the comedy room that you'll be seeing the show, or it doesn't count towards the two item minimum. Anyway, cool place, comfortable seating, great service, and awesome comedy!

I didn't necessarily have the highest hopes for the comedy show, but I went in with an open mind…read more Unfortunately it was back to back cringe worthy comedians with quite similar material that really wasn't all that funny. Maybe that's a bit harsh, there may have been 2-3 comedians that were pretty decent. There's room for a lot of improvement with the decor... A LOT! Drinks wise, it was okay. But it was a bit gross when the person behind the bar used her hands to pick up the limes that were going in my drink. As the other reviews mention - don't get the VIP ticket. It makes no difference with the seating... And the gift is one free ticket for 2 to a future show ... Cheeky!!!

I have been going to the overachievers comedy show since it was at brass monkey, in Adams Morgan…read more Long before it had gotten so much popularity. I am so happy to see their show's only gotten bigger and better! Martin Amini, the host, has truly worked hard to get their show to were they are at now. He is truly one of the sweetest, most humble, and obviously funniest guys I know! I have never been disappointed with any of their shows. They're so well known now that comedians fly in from out of state. My friends and I went to their show last night and did not stop laughing. Their head liner, James Davis AKA "hood adjacent", had us laughing so hard, the entire time that our stomachs, and cheeks were hurting by the end of the show. Even their opening acts, one funnier than the last. Can't emphasize how much fun we had here. Their next show is on March 8th. Get your ticket! Take your friends!

I can't say enough good things about this comedy show! I almost don't want to post this review…read morebecause its my secret happy spot, but these guy are too good to not spread the gospel: you will laugh, you will cry (tears of laughter), and you will have a heck of a good time (and maybe even win some beats by Dre!). There is a rotating line up of comedians (normally about 6) and one main "headliner" who has a somewhat longer set and is also normally a bigger name. The comedians are great, Martin is an incredible and super funny host, and DJ Bo is like wow, just amazing! DJ Bo, who keeps the music running all night is INCREDIBLE! Every time I am there all I think is "where can I go to see this man spin beats???" This week I learned the answer to that is Cloak and Dagger, so you're welcome, peoples :) The venue is intimate, they serve drinks and some snacks. Its better to get tickets on line in advance because it SELLS OUT and I have seen the line go out the door and people get turned away. You are guaranteed a feel-good night of laughs with the Overachievers Comedy Show :) ps. even though the address for the theatre is 13th street, the entrance is actually on L St.
