With live music every night of the week (on Mondays it is a jam where you can sign up and help MAKE…read morethe music!), I can always count on dropping in to The Seamonster Lounge to have the music I like: Jazz, Funk, Soul, Jam Bands, Reggae, Afropop, Latin even a Zeppelin cover band once in a while. Most nights there are 2 bands, one starting at 7 and one at 10PM No cover Sunday-Thursday (tip the band and the bartender!) Regular highlights for me are Hammand Organ Master Joe Doria and Friends on Tuesdays and Funky2Death on Fridays. Other artists/groups have monthly slots--check their schedule online. Battlestar Kalakala, How Now Brown Cow, Dub Lounge International, Hurricane Dreamz, Ron Weinstein Organ Trio and much much more!

Pitcher goes crazy and I love the platforms of different levels because you can catch a breath at your own convenience. Staff works hard to ensure that everyone is safe from the line outside to the front of the stage. Extremely impressed by my experiences here...perhaps my favorite live entertainment venue ever!

Joined a friend to see Berlioz and it was both of our first times going to Showbox. I'm not sure…read morehow or if they rearrange this venue for shows, but the layout was really nice! There's a good amount of seating in the platform area and a large open floor in the middle. A lot of people also stand/dance on the same platform as there's a lot of leeway for you to move between areas. I never really do coat check because I'm paranoid about not having my things on me, but the one here is easy and reliable. The only real issue was the photo booth which only worked for the first half hour or so. I'm assuming it ran out of film or something because at some point, it just kept taking people's money without taking any photos, which was brought up to the staff. This isn't necessarily on Showbox since the photo booth is provided by a vendor, but I would've appreciated an "out of order" sign. If this happens to you, you can visit the vendor's website and call for a refund!

I'll be honest, I am surprised by not only the good reviews but the fact that absolutely nothing…read morehas changed since this place opened. The food is very good and consistently so... when you can get it. The restaurant is always PAINFULLY short staffed so while the staff is very friendly, they're simply never around. We have had to cancel food orders more than once because sitting there waiting for an hour to order (literally), then waiting another hour and multiple reminders for the bill before you can close out is just untenable. We live right up the street and since the food is so good, we try over and over and over again and it always the same experience: endlessly disappointing. Sitting there for 15 minutes with empty glasses and not a bartender in sight, or waiting 20 minutes in an empty restaurant only to finally order and have the server tell you they just sold out of what you wanted is not the way to run a restaurant. I'm only giving it two stars because the food is so good, but I'm afraid we've been disappointed one too many times. Until they can either hire staff or train their current staff on how to deal with their sections, we're out.

Yes, there is live music scheduled at North City Bistro and it is lovely! This location has recently changed ownership and while I never visited prior to this change the service we received was top notch. All I can say is definitely try everything because we definitely did. Amazing, flavorful Brussel sprouts, satisfying and comfort food spectacular Mac and cheese, super creamy and tasty mushroom soup, crispy truffle fries, a classic creme brûlée done right and a truly perfect night cap of Caramel affogato. Visit this sophisticated setting for a night to remember and you won't be disappointed.

Service was quick, friendly, attentive and informative, very pleasant. Full house for the evening's music gig (blues n jazz, very good instrument (keyboard, sax/flute, guitar, base & dummer) and vocalist) Utopia is the band. Lighting was appropriate for the event, a lot of conversations when music was no on but relatively moderate and respectful conversations level, liked it. Would return for future venues as well as just for a meal. Thank you

Jazzbones. An old Tacoma staple to be sure!…read more It's not somewhere you go for the best food in town, or craft cocktails to die for. It's somewhere you go to have fun, meet some locals, kick back, dance, and listen to great music. It's where you BS with the bartenders. It's somewhere you go and have some laughs. Let your hair down. Be a Tacoma Bro or hang with one. It's a great 'ol dive with lots of space and many memories. Love Jazzbones.

I had to ask for my bill six times and it was wrong and then the waitress copped an attitude and was rude the rest of the night Because I did not tip because they already included an 18% tip on my bill for just me that's absolutely ridiculous. The comedy was good. The parking street parking so that can be a pain in the butt as for the food it's hit or miss. I mean it's all fried food so Nothing exceptional or unique. It's just basic bar. Oh let's address the drinks as well. Don't order no fruity pretty Fūfu drinks because they're overpriced and will be watered down if you wanna drink go for a straight shot.

Fun place to see a band but SUPER crowded. Street parking only so plan accordingly…read more Staff was great. Very friendly and made the bar lines move fairly quickly. Expanded heated area toward the front with 2 rollup doors adds to the capacity. There is also a smaller upstairs area with a second bar, bathroom and great views overlooking the main area. We saw a couple of bands on a Friday night and there were wall to wall people so you couldn't really dance. The stage is large and set up nicely and the lights during the shows were really awesome. Lots to do in this part of Fremont so maybe get there early for parking and grab some food before a show.
