    A nice theater with comfortable seats. Parking is easily accessible. It's a more intimate venue but still holds a good amount of people. It was My first time here and I would definitely come back to see another comedian/performer.

    Distinguished speaker series with Dr. Laurie Santos!

    I had the privilege of coming to the theater with my team from work for a lecture in the Distinguished Speakers series. Not only is this performing arts center a beautiful place from the enormous dancing fountain - which is lit in all colors at night, but the interior is gorgeous, too! The seats and vantage points are arguably more comfortable and visible than say Segerstrom in OC, and I was impressed with how subtle the lighting and acoustics were as well. I would definitely love the opportunity to return, perhaps for one of the Shen Yun ballet performances or Nutcracker during the holidays. While I cannot speak to the parking situation per se as I actually live within walking distance, I know there is a large structure to the east of the entrance and street parking. Adjacent to the Breakers hotel, the theater is within walking distance to the many restaurants on Pine Ave. and the Pike outlets and Long Beach Aquarium.

    We came to the theatre to see George Lopez, there's spacious parking that's walking distance to the theatre that was convenient. The entrance process was efficient, secure, and there was plenty of security to help with the process. The theatre is esthetically pleasant, with various food trucks, bars, and easy access restrooms. The sounds system was great and getting to our seats was easy with assistance from the staff. We had a great time and will definitely cone back!

    We've been following the Beach Boys around SoCal for several years now and they played at this location on a sunny summer Sunday. The parking lot next door charges 15 dollars for the whole day. The theater is nice outside and inside but they have nasty carpet laid out. The sound was very good and I enjoyed our seats even though they were in the balcony section. A bar is available outside and inside in case you didn't pre-plan and drink before going in.

    I'm not too much of a live events person but my friend invited me to see Sheng Weng and it was also my first time at this venue. The building is beautiful and clean and the restrooms were clean as well. I loved how they had a water filling station and there was live music and food trucks and food vendors outside of the venue before the show started. We got to meet Sheng Weng after the show and had a selfie with him! Funny dude!

    Quick power snack before the show!

    Came to this venue for the first time with my sister to watch, Come Far Away (fortunate to have watch this 2-night showing of this wonderful production). NOTE: My review is soley based on the venue. Located in DTLB beside neighboring business such as, Aquarium of the Pacific, LB Convention Center, and the Fairmont Breakers Hotel just to name a few. We prepaid for parking online and had no problem finding the structure, which was just a short walk to the theater. Beautiful fascade with colorful lighting to showcase the building and the dancing water fountain outside, which gave off a low scale Bellagio (Vegas) vibe, sans background music of course, pretty cool nonetheless. Great security staff as we entered, but we did see a few transients outside. The main lobby was multi-leveled, open and airy. Their auditorium was clean and definitely spacious. The stage had plenty of room to accommodate the set design, cast, and live band. The acoustics were wonderful. Their bathrooms were clean, but I wasn't sure if there were more restrooms located somewhere else within venue. Funny seeing the long line coming from both the women's and the men's joining as one. Plus points for having more than one cocktail station though! LOL. All in all, my sister and I enjoyed this venue. We would definitely come back to watch future shows. Till next time...

    I loved the show. Come From Away was great, as was the company. The theater however left much to be desired. It felt too big. Once the show started they let people in... Multiple rows in front of us were sat all the way in the middle with empty side seats. It seemed a nuisance to seat people after the show has started. Then, directly in front of us... a woman texted the entire first song and 5-7 minutes of the show communicating with someone else in the theater. She finally got up and never came back...theater etiquette?!? Other than that the show was great. We might be back to see Book of Mormon but might spring for closer seats. It feels like a huge auditorium. This show was much better on Broadway in a small theater. But I'm happy to still be able to see this heartfelt show.

    Well the place is nice. But when buying your tickets row 1 was not front row as the diagram shows. I paid more for my tickets to be front row and was actually 4th very miss leading they have row a,b,c not showing on the seating charts. Beer prices are out of thos world $19.99 for a 24oz beer wow unbelievable. Sound is much better in the mid seats then up close. Save your money and sit back a few rows its not that big of place on the floor seats. Will it go back maybe

    I finally can check Shen Yun off my bucket list now, I had the opportunity to see this breathtaking authentic Classical Chinese dance, music and storytelling performances. Shen Yun name meaning is the divine beauty, Inter feeling in dance and movements. This classical Chinese performances started in NYC in 2006 and it was banned from China in 1990 because of the religous movemont, they put on a amazing show that deal with the ancient Chinese culture, the dancing, acting, songs, dialogus, colorful costumesand the music is all awesome, they all put on one hell of a show, I love it from the beginning to the end, they are very strict about the audience taking pictures, or videoing, there are ushers holding signs not to do it. I would love to see this again and I'm too.

    We went to go see The Book of Mormons Musical and was absolutely delighted by the talent and addictive atmosphere. A spectacular dance amongst the lights. The staff were kind and helpful. The show itself was so very entertaining and well casted. I'm just a bit disappointed that buying a single beer and two shots came out to a whopping $70. If you fancy a drink, I suggest to have one before arrival.

    I attended Ali Wong's stand-up show at the Terrace Theater in Long Beach last Friday. The show was a blast. There were signs stating that no cell phones were allowed to be recording or photographing inside the theater. When we arrived, we were directed to park in the convention center parking lot which was $15 per car. We quickly made our way to the C level and walked over the bridge to the theater and directed around to where they set up the metal detectors and security checks. We arrived at 6:30 before the 7:00 pm show. There were two food trucks parked in the plaza outside the entrance to the theater. There was also a bar outside but we were also told that there were 14 bars inside the theater too. I did not see any food options inside other than pretzels so I was safe to order food from the food trucks. We got our food and chowed down before entering the theater. We actually had a chance to use the ladies' room too. By the time we took a quick pick in the lobby, it was time for Ali to take the stage. We got in just in time as she was starting her set. The show was great and we exited the theater shortly after her set.

    Shen Yun?! Yes, please! I always said that if they're ever in town, I would love to take the opportunity to go see as I heard so many good things about it. Opportunity knocked. I took it, and this is how I ended up here. I'm not really familiar with this area, so I took the time to research: how much time it'll take to get here from home, parking (this is REALLY important), prepped for contingencies (it was a rainy SoCal weekend), etc... I planned ahead so I didn't miss any part of the show. Funny enough, I planned it so well, my friend and I got here a little too early. But no biggie: this gave me the chance to take it all in. What a beautiful structure from the outside and even more so once inside. There were plenty of informational displays and booths regarding the show. Same for snacks and drinks (nothing big, pretzels, chips, soda and the like.) Great views of the general area on all corners. This is a well thought out building! The main hall's appearance was nothing to call home about, but the acoustics were excellent! The orchestra was strategically placed and the music coming from them was almost breathtaking. (Parking is $15 - YAY! And it's covered, so rain wasn't that much of an issue.) The one downside: bathrooms. They're not enough. The lines were so long with not enough stalls. I almost missed the 2nd part of the show. The other downside: the show itself. Maybe because I didn't read up on it enough that I may not have had sufficient information to appreciate it. I guess I expected more acrobatics? Or just MORE - because after 3 or 4 dance routines, the ones that followed were pretty much similar to what we'd already seen. The costumes, however, were incredibly impressive. They spared no expense on that part of the show. TIP: Pre-pay parking tickets online. This will at least secure you a spot. The $2 fee will be worth it! I'm glad of the experience. I now know what to expect should I ever find myself up in here again for any reason.

    The Service: So many staffs in this theater, at every entrance, near the lounge, in front of theater doors. They are always there to assist. Very friendly staffs as well. The Theater: 3 floors theater. Very well maintained. Great sound system. 3 bar/concession counters. They do have security check in front of the theater entrance. No outside food or drinks. Limited seating area in the lobby. The Parking: $15 cash/credit card at their parking structure. Unfortunately, there are no street parking available.

    Ask the Community - Terrace Theater

    Are the seats plus size friendly? Some venues have really outdated tight seats.

    By looking at the review pictures it looks like they are regular seats:(

    Has anyone ever been here with littles? I want to sit in the very back of the main seating or the somewhere in the balcony. My kid is 3 feet 2 inches. Wondering if he will be able to see from these types of seats?

    We went last year with our 3 year old son to see the nutcracker and sat in the back row of lodge 4 in the center area and had a great view, however if there is a tall person seated directly in front of your little one they would likely have to swap… 

    Do they serve drinks?

    I think this depends on the venue/show, but last year for the Nutcracker, they served both regular drinks and alcohol, as well as some convenience foods.

    Is alochol provided or allowed in the orchestra?

My fiancé and I were looking for a place to drink and eat before a concert and were excited to see the menu for the Auld Dubliner. We came in on a Saturday night and the place was packed! The only place with seating was in the very front of the restaurant, outside. We sat outside looking at the menu, before deciding what we wanted. There wasn't a server or water walking around, so I had gone straight to the bar and talked to the bartender. He was very sweet and tried his best to hear me. Impeccable hearing, I'd say, because it was loud in there. I ordered an IPA with fish and chips. He gave me a number, which I was grateful for to ensure they'd find me outside. I sat outside with my fiancé, and we enjoyed our time people watching. Although they were extremely busy, our food came out within 10 - 15 minutes. The fish was very good; it was crispy and flaky. Their fries were okay, and just a tad bit soggy, probably due to the temperature of the fish. My IPA was cold and good. It's your typical pub and food, but great experience to those visiting.

Communication leading up to our wedding was consistently poor. Emails and messages often went unanswered for days, which created a lot of unnecessary anxiety during an already stressful time. During our final walkthrough, Ciara reassured us that we would not be rushed to remove our belongings after the wedding and could even return Monday or Tuesday. She specifically shared that she had been rushed after her own wedding at this venue and did not want to do that to us. Unfortunately, the day after our wedding, that is exactly what happened. Our vendor arrived during the 12-2 p.m. pickup window we were given, only to find the venue locked. After multiple unanswered calls and texts, Ciara arrived nearly an hour later, resulting in our vendor charging us for the wait. At that same time, we were suddenly told all of our belongings needed to be removed that day, giving us essentially an hour to figure it out; completely contradicting what we had been told during our final walkthrough. Our wedding itself was wonderful, but the lack of communication and follow-through caused so much unnecessary stress before and immediately after it. As beautiful as the space is, based on our experience with management, we would not host another event here or recommend it to friends or family.

This place is located on the 2nd floor of Shannon's On Pine Irish Pub & Sports Bar. The first thing that stood out (after having been to Sevilla Nightclub just a mere hour before visiting this place) was how lax security was. And by lax, I mean they don't pat you or check you for guns at all. Cover IS free so that's definitely a plus. The whole place smells of marijuana smoke and the floor was kind of sticky. They do give out free water, which is nice but they don't have disposable cups, rather they have regular plastic clubs that I'm assuming are washed regularly? The music was ok. Not my thing but I can definitely groove to some Hip-Hop/R&B every now and then. The patrons were friendly and it was easy to make conversation and connect with others. Some of the people were already high as a kite there, though, lol. Again, I can't comment on the drinks or their prices, since all I usually have is soda, or water if it's available. Overall, a bit of an improvement over Sevilla in some respects, and not as good as Sevilla in others. Final Score: 3/5, just like Sevilla Nightclub down the street.
