I've now seen a couple of different comedy shows at the Acme Comedy Club. I like how intimate the…read morevenue is, but some of the seats/rows are very close together. The lighting and sound has always been decent as well (not too loud or too bright). You don't get to pick your seat. It gets assigned after you pick up your ticket and check in. They will take in your preference on how close you want to be to the stage (remember those in the front couple row may be picked on lol). I haven't eaten at Acme before, but I've always gotten a drink. Servers walk around during the show, so there is no need to get up and go to the bar. Which is good, because you can't get served at the bar window inside of the venue. They have brought in some comedians I've heard of before and seek out to attend and others I've never heard of before, but went to anyways and I've enjoyed both equally.

If you're considering the dinner-and-show experience at Acme Comedy Co., I'd suggest looking…read moreelsewhere. The only bright spot of the evening was our server at Stix, who was friendly, attentive, and did a good job. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing. The chicken was overcooked and unseasoned, and the meal was not worth the price. The comedy show was far worse. Tim Slagle's act included offensive jokes about women, LGBTQ+ people, and Somalis that were misogynistic, racist, and homophobic. Instead of being entertaining, the performance was mean-spirited and uncomfortable. We got up and left before the show ended, and we weren't alone. Hearing from staff on the way out that this is how he performs every time was especially concerning. Since Acme continues to book him, it's fair to assume they are comfortable associating their brand with that type of material. This was my first visit, and it will definitely be my last.

I came to the Brave New Workshop to watch Smelling Elon's Musk. The theater seating is on the…read moresecond floor and they have snacks and beverages for sale in the lobby. Snacks ranged from candies to popcorn and they had various alcoholic and n/a beverages. Drinks were around $10 each but they did have a last chance sale for $6 cans. As for the show, we were cracking up throughout! The cast put together an amazing show and brought humor to the unfortunate reality that is the wealth gap. I would definitely come back to see another show!

I do love the BNW, but this wasn't their best. We had no table service despite sitting right up…read morefront. My recollection is they previously had servers. Maybe not. Seems a missed opportunity for revenue. I know we would have imbibed beyond the first round we bought ourselves on the way in. Then there was the show, "Hypocralypse Now", which was amusing in spots but never exceeded expectations. Good, not great. I would compare the place to Second City in Chicago, in terms of ambiance and atmosphere, and Second City doesn't always hit a home run either. This was fun, and we loved all the taunts of the current vile administration, but perhaps MAGA is too easy a target.

All the workers were super efficient and nice. Definitely not their first rodeo and it seemed like everything was firing on all cylinders for them. Get there a bit early if you get general admission seats so you can snag a good spot. Not too many bad seats in the house though! Will be going back!

Such a cool vibe with above the bar talent!! Easily this show could've been on Broadway or Vegas or even home in Nashville... and to hear it had been running for multiple decades showed how cool and fresh they've kept it....Steve Ray himself was there hosting it!! Was so cool! It's a dinner theater and dinner was ok w/ some flavor, but the service was off the chart....Our server "Rochelle" shot us a funny line and it was used in a skit... I'd definitely recommend this show!! Stevie has a cool vibe and the talent he has working with him tells me he's kept taking care of BOTH of his guests his top priority!! Thanks 4 The Laughs Ya'all!!

Service here is a hard pass. 2 item limit but never was seen by server - UPDATE - server came…read moreconveniently after the show started - after the kitchen was CLOSED - I refused to buy anything because despite being ignored while she was getting drunk on the job - who spends their money somewhere who ignores you for OVER AN HOUR. mind you people around us were on their 2nd-3rd rounds of food/drinks. that is the main joke. The GM came out to address us not abiding to the 2 item limit - very unprofessional (PARKER - wrote his name so sloppy was probably drunk as well) very rude and condescending, he made several excuses for his under the influence employee ignoring us.. but stood on having to buy 2 items or leave. Mind you the kitchen was closed at this point. We are almost an hour into the show. I told him i'm not buying anything after being ignored for an hr and also asked if he wanted us to chug 2 drinks w/ less than an hr left of the show and having to drive home. He suggested we buy 2 bottles of water - each. ABSOLUTELY NOT SPENDING A DIME.. or penny here. After some back and forth about it he said he can offer comp tickets to any other show - WHY THE F would we come back again?! Definitely putting the wrong people in management. The point was we were ignored over an hour, there's nothing you can do for me at that point. I'd never sit at a restaurant over an hr with no service and still spend my money there. It did escalate to security coming to kick us out. Thats where the employees showed their true colors. Just trashed. Yelling despite a show going on. Going back and forth OVER the GM. Just disgusting behavior from GM to drunk servers to drunk host. Hard pass on any show being hosted here.

I go here for the 'Greatest Comedy Show Ever' every first Saturday of the month…read more The host (of the comedy show), Nick is great & very funny! The other comedians are decent as well! For $5 it's good entertainment, (can't really complain) if you don't have plans on a Saturday night. The bartender is great! Only 1 bartender & he does a great job handling all the drinks as well as all the food orders! The drinks are always great! He can make pretty much anything. Hard working guy! Drinks are pretty cheap. They have GREAT bar food! I usually get the fries with seasoned sour cream & the dry spice chicken wings (seasoned very well). This time we tried a new chipotle special of the month wing. It was really good. Just the right amount of sauce & spice. Food is reasonably priced! It's a smaller venue and seating is pretty tight. If you want a good spot get there early! I believe doors open an hour prior. Also they have a parking lot but with Club Underground being under an actual bar (Spring Street Tavern) & this event is on a Saturday night parking gets kind of tight in the lot. There is plenty of street parking. Usually always have a good time here.
