Amazing venue, so great to see an epic comedian up close and enjoy a real comedy club setting. We saw David Cross there last night and he was hilarious. I felt like I spent some quality time with Tobias Funke himself. Thank you for bringing an icon to Madison!!!

Fun evening. Reasonably priced for a night of comedy. Wait staff is excellent. Reminder, 2 drink minimum. You can buy water.
