The theater was nice enough, although our seating area could have used a good deep cleaning. There were crumbs and other leftover food noticeable. The waitress who took our order once seated seemed annoyed she had to climb to the top where we were sitting with obvious exacerbation over the task. In the two times she was there to take our orders I was displeased with the way we were treated, and some of the comments she made. I got the impression she was annoyed with the audience of children, which mad the experience substantially less enjoyable for me and my son. I will definitely not be going back to this theater and expected a lot more from La Jolla, especially when paying almost $50 for a matinee and over $100 on food. Definitely think this theater could take a renovation in their weekday staff and provide their customers with a more enjoyable movie dining experience. When someone doesn't enjoy their job it shows, and I saw this with several staff members there that day. Would not go back or recommend.

She gave a spot-on recommendation, provided excellent 5 star customer service, and just had an overall positive vibe that transcended the bar top. Shout out to Dani for hustling behind the bar, while still providing such warm service. The outdoor area is the pièce de résistance of this brewery. The outdoor area gets a 5/5 for having a ton of seating, tables, and some shade covering. I love that they have some dartboards here, but both of them were so worn down, the bullseye areas were completely shredded. Since they're shredded to the core, the darts won't stick to the board in the bullseye areas, rendering the boards effectively useless. Please cop a few $50 dartboards and bring the back the fun. Thanks New English!!!

This play is so well acted. Transitions are seamless. This play is hilarious! Next stop? New York would not surprise any of us, who came to see it. The staff at The Playhouse is so warm and welcoming. Both young and old are well taken care of. And guess what? I'm buying a subscription! You cannot beat this for local theatre. And I am comparing it to other venues in San Diego. No issues about parking. Not a bad seat in the house. I'm telling you, this play runs till almost the end of the month. Grab any seat available.

There is a ticket fee for all non students. The small arena has a large screen scoreboard that is paired up with a loud sound system for music. It's very entertaining and fun during the breaks. They have a "block party" for every UCSD block and the staff throws free t shirts into the stands. There is one small snack stand for sodas, nachos, pretzels and typical sports food. It was staffed with two people. There is no beer or wine served here so get ready for Gatorade. The arena is a nice volleyball venue where 200-300 spectators watched the game very comfortably. It was fun with music and the great announcer.

Eh. I've never…read morereally been a fan of seeing shows at Rimac Arena. I mean, when you wanna check out a hot show and you're REALLY excited about it... it's hard to get upset about the venue. You just wanna catch the performance. This was the case last night for the big Flight of the Conchords show at UCSD. Been wanting to see those cats for years, and finally, they brought their tour through San Diego. The show could have been at the Miramar Landfill for all I cared... I just wanted to see the best musical comedy duo since Tenacious D up close and personal, and it happened to be on this particular college campus. The show was great, but I despise the layout of Rimac. It's primarily used to house the UCSD basketball teams (both men and women), and it doubles as a large concert venue for bands and artists with a big draw. Unfortunately, the space yields some terrible acoustics. I don't think shows were necessarily top of mind during construction of this venue, and it's apparent by the vast amount of metal pillars and various other adornments that cause the sound to bounce all over the place. I think they could spend some of that trust fund loot to throw some egg crates on the walls to absorb the sound, but that's just me. You know when you see a show in a gymnasium, and for a moment, you totally forget that you're in some sweaty sports venue? Well, that's not the case here. You're well aware that you're in a basketball arena, for sure. You really have to commend the staff at UCSD for doing so many great things for the students enrolled here, though. Seems like they have a different music festival going on every month (Sungod, for example). However, I just wish they could warm up the arena somehow. It'd be like doing yoga in the middle of Time's Square. Sure, the yoga would awesome... but it'd be really tough to get the full experience because you're in the middle of a bustling intersection. Like that yoga comparison, it's hard to fully get into 'show mode' here. But coming full circle, sometimes you have to make sacrifices to see some of your favorite bands. It's unfortunate that our city doesn't have more 'real' music venues in town for an act of this caliber. Uncomfortable bench seating in a college sports hall hardly does the trick for me.

We had 3rd row seats, so maybe the sound is better further back? It wasn't til the violins came out that I could really start enjoying the music. The harpsichord sounded almost muted on it's own despite the virtuoso performance. I was also shocked at how little publicity and attendance this performance got for the amount of effort the musicians put into preparation and their sheer talent. We were surrounded by so many empty seats. Hopefully they do a better job notifying the public about these lovely events in the future. I really hope someone recorded this once in a lifetime concert.
