    Review of an event:…read more Event parking was $9 all night. There was plenty of parking in the structure. Go to level 4 for event parking. Box office opens one hour prior to show and closed at midnight. Event space was not that big. Restrooms are available in the mall by the escalators. There are also restrooms inside event venue.

    House of Blues, located on the 4th floor of GardenWalk Plaza next to AMC, is a great addition and…read morehas already hosted a couple of concerts I really enjoyed in 2026. With doors opening about an hour before the concert, the GA line tends to be longer than expected, and most of the venue is standing-room-only unless you opt for "premium" price for seats. Even so, the "standing only" crowd is usually respectful, and despite the tight space, the atmosphere stays fun. But, for short folks like myself, can be a major disadvantage as crowds beginning to move toward the front and blocking the view. From a concert going perspective, wear comfortable shoes is best as you're standing through the two+ hours. The ventilation is okay so you could get warm fairly quickly. Plus, there's four bar stations throughout the venue so there's no shortage of drinks for purchase (snacks are available, too). Overall, I like that the parking garage is attached to the HOB along with many other shops. HOB representatives also offered discounts parking -- so you pay $8 for unlimited parking (rather than $4/hour).

    Tonight we came to hear the Eric Dries Trio and Lia Booth. A dinner with a show. Phenomenal music,…read moredelectable food! Service is excellent and ambiance snazzy for a restaurant in a mini mall. We started with the Focaccia de Recco, followed by the beet salad. I had the roast chicken carbonara, my husband hand the homemade sausage lasagna. For dessert, we will be having the Irishman. NOTE TO THE CHEF: I only wished that the chef would have crisped up the prosciutto instead of just throwing in the slice as is. Texture of food is everything. It would have elevated the dish. Four stars for this dish.

    I'm going to buck the 4.8 star average rating. The trouble with fawning Yelp reviews is they…read morecreate an expectation most places have a hard time living up to. This place is one of them in my opinion. One thing going for Jojo's is it hosts some good acts, and live music is pretty scarce in Tustin. We went to see Pretzel Logic, a really terrific Steely Dan tribute band that never disappoints. The views of the stage are good even when seated in the back of the room. The lighting and sound are good, too. However, the food was just so so, Jojo. * The calamari appetizer was generously portioned, but we've had a lot better elsewhere. * The Ribeye steak I ordered was the fattiest piece of meat I've ever been served. I left half of it uneaten. I'm surprised the cook who prepared it had the gall to plate it. The menu is an abbreviated version of the full menu of 17th Street grill. So why not a two star rating? The service was very good in a challenging environment. Cheers!

    This is mostly for the VIP area. I'm at the age where I don't want to stand for an entire show nor…read moredo i want to push and throw elbows with fellow music fans. Bought reserved seats upstairs. Decent view of the stage. Great sound. I paid extra for premium parking. There is free parking within a couple of blocks. I think premium parking is worth it as I've heard there are predatory tow services that tow cars parked in lots of nearby CLOSED businesses. Douchey move. Enjoyed the show, food was decent "pub grub" but pretty limited menu. Nice selection of beers, cocktails and seltzers, really limited wine options.

    I never have been to the Observatory before. I've been to every type of venue over several decades…read moreand the way PARKING is handled is the WORST. I'm writing this in line. I'm not in the venue yet. I prepaid $10 for parking. The attendant at the lot on sight said this lot is VIP $30 parking. He directed me where to park; following the signs. I ended snaking through a industrial/commercial building area, passing several empty parking lots. Finally found where I'm allowed to park. It's a third of a mile walk. Not a problem for me but ridiculous. Let's hope the venues sound is good. This place has been in business a long time and from reading other people's opinion on parking, management still doesn't have a clue. edit: security would not allow a sealed plastic water bottle to be brought inside.
