    My buddy gifted us tickets to tonights early bird comedy show. Two drink minimum ($8-$20) and got here early for amazing front table seating. The server was nice and got us drinks quickly. Last call was 45 minutes before the end of the show with a mandatory 18% tip added which was fine. The nacho plate looked great but was going to dinner after the show. The first three women were dressed sexy and funny, basically making fun of themselves. The last three guys gained some laughter but only one had risqué humor and worth listening too. I enjoy comics that dont hold back and make fun of everyone. I'm not a fan of this new empathetically driven crap that ties the hands and mutes some of our favorite comics. Fun times tonight.

    Arrived at 3:00 for a 4:00-6:00 show. Glad we did as we were seat directly center stage. Show requires a two drink minimum. I ordered a mule and a bottle of water. They have a pretty large menu with appetizers and main food. We didn't order any food. Went out to dinner in Dania point. The comedians were funny. The staff were friendly. They did started about 10 minutes late and ended 15 minutes early.

    I was invited to watch an up & coming comedian with a group of friends and family at the Fort Lauderdale Improv recently. This was my first visit at this location, and I was impressed. I enjoyed the ambience which was lit, but in a very relaxing way. Clean and spacious. It's a two drink minimum for the show which can be nonalcoholic if that's your preference. We sat one table back from the stage and had a great view. The service was good as well. Good place to calm for your next outing.

    The venue is alright. Seating in the main area gives a good view, but around the side tables it can be a little obstructed. Also, there are stools around the edge of the theater that have their backs to a table but nothing in front, so it's a little uncomfortable to sit there for the whole show without anything in front of you amd having to turn your back to get your drink. Cocktails are incredibly pricey at ~$25 each, but the beers are much better priced ($8-10). There is a two drink minimum so this adds up with ticket price. Parking is also a bit far at a parking garage about a 5 minute walk from the venue. Tickets are non-transferable, so even if you have your qr code from the ticket, they are still going to check id, and ask for phone, email, etc. before letting you in. Keep this in mind because it is very time consuming. They get great acts, though, and the area around the venue is nice and clean and kept well decorated so you can walk around before or after the show.

    Last-minute plan, our first time here, and they did not disappoint. Great show, bottle service made the night even better, and we had so many laughs. We'll definitely be coming back! I recommend getting here early so you can order drinks and food before it gets busy and the show starts!

    Copped 2 free tickets for JR De Guzman's show: Boyfriend Material. He was an absolute riot, I don't think I was able to catch a breath in between laughing. It is a two drink minimum (it's literally posted everywhere; I'm not sure how some people are missing this or mad about this because it's absolutely on everything, the ticket, the entrance, etc, which is concerning seeing that they are driving; Sure hope they aren't that person on I-95 all the way in the far left lane, as their exit is approaching they slam on the breaks and want to get over 6 lanes of traffic and inconvenience everyone, get angry at everyone, because they didn't think ahead or bother to read. You can only blame yourself at that point lol), that also applies to water & coca-Cola, tea, etc. However I opted for the adult beverages. Yes they are pricey, but I presume it's on par for the area for a mixed drink. So like whatever just know that going in, it's all about the experience, have fun, get a drink and enjoy. Will note, 18% gratuity is already included on your total when cashing out; Forewarning unless you feel nice and want to double tip :) Had a great time with major laughs, good company and yummy silly juice.

    I got kidnapped (lovingly) and taken here for my birthday, and let me tell you... the night started off with the host acting like the gatekeeper of laughter. Four of our people were already inside, but apparently the other five of us needed a special passport, a wristband, and maybe a secret handshake before we could join them. After some unnecessary suspense, they finally sat us -- not where we planned, but at least we were all together and not watching the show from the parking lot. The comics? Pretty funny! Not rolling-on-the-floor level, but I gave them points because I know it takes bravery to get on stage and risk a room full of strangers judging your jokes harder than the SATs. I ordered steak bites and truffle fries, and chef's kiss -- delicious. My man ordered the chicken wings... and those wings said "absolutely not." It was so dark in there I had to pull out my phone flashlight like I was doing a forensic investigation. Two wings in, he says, "This tastes weird..." and baby, when I looked? Those wings were trying to take us to the ER. They took it off the bill, thankfully -- but not before the wings took HIM out for the night. Food poisoning: 1, His birthday date night energy: 0. Would we go again? Yeah, we would -- preferably when a bigger-name comic is headlining. But the chicken wings? Never again. Not even if they were free, glowing, or blessed by Beyoncé.

    Comedy night at the Improv with a bunch of my friends was fun. We went for the earlier time so the 5 comics were funny but not the main event. Two drink minimum but the drinks were strong and pricey. We got here one hour early to get center stage seating and it was sold out. The young hostess girl had a bad attitude but our server and the security guards were pleasant.

    I'll start by saying that the show my daughter and I went to was extraordinary. However, I believe the organization was a bit chaotic. We waited in line for about a block and a half and arrived an hour and a half early, since it's first come, first serve. The line didn't move until the very last minute, so we were able to sit down just a few minutes before the show started and had to place our order with the waitress practically in the dark. The service was great -- the servers were fast, attentive, and clearly knew what they were doing. The kitchen as well, since the orders kept coming out non-stop. The prices, though, are another story. While the quality is good, the prices are outrageous. Considering that we already paid for the show, I don't think it's necessary to charge such high amounts, especially since a minimum of two drinks per person is also required. That said, I imagine it has to do with the area and the overall venue, since being a "night spot," they take advantage of that. Still, the overall experience was very enjoyable, despite the rather hefty bill.

    So glad they changed the name to Fort Lauderdale Improv!!!! I love this location because driving to Miami can be cumbersome with that crazy garage in Doral, but this Dania Point garage is so much easier to enjoy the Fort Lauderdale Improv!! The Mexican restaurant across the Improv is so good to get a meal before the show. If you eat at the Improv they have a cute menu with yummy options. It's always a 2 drink minimum at every Improv franchise location. I've seen Dan Soder, Nicole Byer, Desmond Bishop at this location. Always good touring comedians coming through!

    Came here to see Lil Duval perform. Had a great time, our waitress also provided excellent service. Only complaint is that the drinks are way over priced. But it's always been that way.

    I went here tonight with my sister to see a comedian I love and had a great evening. The club is located in a great area and is really clean. There is a 2 drink minimum, my sister had an espresso martini and I had pinot grigio. We also ordered burgers for dinner (they have a decent menu). The food was really good and I think reasonably priced. The drinks were a little on the high side but not terrible. The staff was great, the comedians were great. I needed to use the rest room and was impressed with how nice it was. That was until there was no toilet paper in the stall and they were the really nice private stalls so couldn't even ask someone in next stall to hand me some underneath. Ok, I drip dried then went out to wash my hands only to find not one but three empty paper towel dispensers. Bottom line, it was a great night. Will bring paper goods next time I go.

    Last Friday night Hubby and I came here for date night to the late show. We saw Michael Yo, who was hilarious... In love this area and how it's attached to the 14th North Daiquiri bar. The service was great and the server was so attentive. We got the cheese fries (didn't get to take a photo). It was great at the top but the added cheese sauce made it too cheesy, in addition to it being a little too salty. But the drinks were delicious! I had an amaretto sour and a fire ball shot.

    I came to the club to see Majah Hype, who in my opinion is an talented comedian. The show was good,…read morehe had the crowd laughing nonstop. We bought our tickets online, about $25 per person, and they were emailed to us. We choose the 9pm show, comedians usually perform two shows per night, 7pm and 9pm. Aside from the admission ticket, there's a two drink minimum per person policy. The drinks are pricey, anywhere from $15-$23 each. If you order food, snacks or dinner it will definitely add to your total. The food however is great, I've been here a few times and have gotten different items each time, and loved it. Seating is first come first served. Once you check in the staff will escort you to your table, they mange how the room fills up so you don't have to cause chaos trying to figure where to go. The club is spacious, and dimly lit, but still easy to maneuver. There also is a very strict no camera policy, for obvious reasons. If you're into stand up's, The Improv is great, just bring a lot of money.

We got the burger and friends and the salmon over mashed potatoes. The food was really good but it was really tight seating wise. Everyone is sat very closely next to each other so if your someone who is looking for leg and arm and body space beware this is a tight seating comedy show. Overall our server was nice and the staff was helpful and nice overall. I will definitely come back in the future.

I stumbled upon Stage 954 at the Casibo at Dania Beach and signed up for their emails. They have many tribute bands- Rumours ATL looked great. They were excellent. I grabbed a quick bite of food before going into the venue. It was pretty basic-a bunch of folding chairs, a bar and restrooms. It was a late arriving crowd- apparently it's the norm to start 15-20 mins late. The sound was good and the crowd was friendly. I enjoyed it so much that I'm coming back in June for a show.
