    Was visiting Vegas and thought I'd check out a comedy show that aligned with my traveling dates…read more Saw that this was the spot to go to, and got VIP tickets to one of their evening shows. Definitely plan to go early because the GPS will drop you off to the parking lot and then you will still have to walk another 10-15 minutes before you reach the venue. It's inside the Rio Hotel and you have to take the elevator to the fourth floor from the parking lot. The venue itself was hard for me to find inside and I even had to ask a few people for directions. Eventually, I reached there twenty minutes late but the woman who checked me in assured me that the show had just started. After being seated, I had a great time! Jimmy Kimmel was hosting the showcase and it was great seeing him live in person. It also didn't take the server too long to reach me for my order. I got nachos, some ginger beer, and had some great laughs :) The nachos were delicious! Highly recommend if you're in the area and just need some laughter therapy.

    DONT LAUGH WHILE AT THIS VENUE. Local here 35 years. Trust me…read moreGo somewhere else. 3 of us Took my sister here for her 67 the b day after 3 weeks of planning. Went for a nice dinner first. Brandon the casino " manger" asked us to leave for laughing too loud.. we asked what the problem was and he said we were laughing too loud. Don't waste your time here .. Strat has a great show and town square. Have fun!!

Hecklers stood no chance against him because he has the knowledge, historical facts and U.S. laws and the solutions to America's problems. He also appreciates being an American and hates those whiney folks who don't understand freedom and what people in other countries have to endure. He includes reminiscing from our Gen x childhoods and actual factual history. I laughed the whole time, yet it also appealed to my brain and my concern for politics. He is the real deal and also discusses his recent stint in jail. Carlos Mencia is an American treasure! The venue was small so all seats were excellent. And he invited the entire audience to an intimate after party with karaoke and promised to be the las one to leave which could be 3am. GO SEE THIS SHOW! I saw the July 1st at 9:30 pm at the Jimmy Kimmel comedy club in Las Vegas. And don't judge the show by the warmup comedian, that was a miss.

    The only reason I am giving this place a 1 star is the food was delicious…read more If you are a fan of watching paint dry, watching ice melt, being yelled at for not laughing, and like wasting money this is the place for you. I get it the club was a Monday night so not the biggest crowd nor the top acts but when half the time the comedians are telling us we are the problem for not laughing. I mean there were 75 of us and we all agreed you were not funny. All three acts told the same drinking, sex, and drug jokes. Drinks were good and food was good. I laughed a little bit but it was more sympathetic than anything. Funniest moment was when an audience member yelled nice try.

    I'm a live standup comedy fan and am still mourning the loss of Wiseguys in the Arts District…read more Wiseguys was always our go-to comedy club as locals, and I finally had time to check out the newest (and now lone) location at Town Square. It's better because parking is free, easy, and plentiful, and this new space is about twice the size of the old one. So there's a lot of good here. I purchased tickets to see Lavell Crawford and paid a reasonable $41 per ticket (including tax and fees). The show quality was good (the two openers not so much), and I didn't like that the staff didn't cut the headliner off when he went on TOO long (so long that the later show started LATE). It became brutal after sitting in there for nearly 2.5 hours! Also, the staff wouldn't let anyone leave so it was a really bad experience. I don't know if this is common here, but it was really, really bad and would make me think twice before seeing another show here. Please, staff: enforce time limits and have the courage to stop the show when the time is up! This location has an expanded food menu with better dishes than the old downtown club. Wings, sliders, nachos, burgers, and more are on offer and reasonably priced for a club. You could easily make an entire evening of it including dinner. The food offerings are substantial and not just throwaway bar snacks. Drinks are a mixed bag, and they do not offer free refills on any of the fountain sodas (lame). Service was quick and efficient, and settling the tab was a breeze. The vibe is classic comedy club, with dim lights, rows of seats that share long communal tables, and a stage that feels close enough to catch every punchline. Seating is first come first served, so arrive early for the best views. Some of the seats can have a blocked view of the stage, so beware. A doorman will seat you when you arrive. Wiseguys features a good mix of touring headliners and local, up and coming acts. Live comedy will always be a mixed bag, so you never know what you're going to get. Tickets are reasonably priced and the folks working the door are so nice and welcoming. The venue is roomy yet intimate, and is a great place to catch a stand-up show. Best of all, it's not super touristy like the rest of the major comedy clubs in town, and its off-Strip location means parking is easy, prices are lower, and the vibe has a more local flair.

    Booked surprise tickets for my husband and his father on two separate occasions. The tickets would…read morebe used by my husband and the website says the name of the person showing up needs to match the ticket. So naturally I put his name down and paid with my card, using my email address(its a surprise!). One event was rescheduled and when I was emailed about it, the employee was more concerned about seeing my husband had a different name than the card used except she said there were "two names" for the tickets...um, no. There is one name that the tickets were booked under and the confirmation even had his name. Instead of talking about the inconvenience of rescheduling, the employee was asking if I knew my husband--- why would I not? Anyway after this, my husband showed up to the other event and they played games with him, saying they couldn't find his name. He even showed the screenshot of the confirmation. They were fishing for my name but instead of asking for the name of the cardholder, which would be easy as that is the only place I put my name down... they instead told him his name wasn't in there. Clearly the employee that emailed me saw both names, which makes it obvious they were screwing with him trying to "catch" 3rd party tickets. Newsflash...of course I bought the tickets from their website. That's how I got the confirmation. And if I bought them to resell them, how would I know in advance the name of the person I would sell them to? Stop playing with us regular people and use common sense. I doubt people are that serious about scalping WISEGUYS tickets. The accusatory tone makes things embarrassing. Made for a really bad impression and it was supposed to be a nice birthday surprise for my husband. To top it off, the chairs will give you sciatica. They are packed knee to knee and hard as concrete.

    Was super excited when my friend & I showed up and found Brad on stage!! I had NO idea he was the…read moreopener. We unfort. arrived apx. 15 min.'s late after missing the turn into MGM then going to the wrong floor in the parking garage via the elevator & then fighting the EDC & CMA crowd. Brad called us out for arriving late once we got seated he reminded us that the show started @ 8pm & made a "joke" about us being late because I was giving my friend a BJ... :-() Soooooo if you're sensitive & don't like to be picked on than don't get a seat in the front row/close to the stage. Brad was picking on one couple up front & an older big guy who was with his parent's. I can't even put what he said to them on here because it wasn't very nice. Lynne Koplitz was the comedian for the night and she started off really weird. I felt like she was really nervous and wasn't sure what jokes she wanted to tell, maybe not really prepared?? But as she got warmed up she got better. She was nice to the audience & wasn't "picking" on them like Brad did. Showroom was packed. Our cocktail waitress came over to us soon after we sat down. My friend got the Border Patrol speciality drink & it just tasted like a margarita. I got the "bitch" drink which was tasty but one was enough for me. We got to keep the plastic glasses. Bathrooms were clean & had some nice decor & magazine covers of Brad. Security & door staff was nice upon arrival to the venue. After the show my friend saw Brad outside talking to some people who attended his show & he asked me if I wanted to go over & get my picture with him. I walked over & had asked him for a photo...I think he was still mad @ me for arriving late to his show....SORRY BRAD!! I'd definitely come back to this venue.

    I went to see a comedian I've seen online (Gabriel Rutledge) and he was fantastic. I didn't…read morerealize he was opening for Brad and would only have a 25 minute set. Brads set was one of the worst I have ever heard. He had no original material. All his jokes were racially focused. Making fun that the Mexicans name was really Miguel, not Mike. And he should leave his leaf blower outside. And he wish he had a huge D like the black guy in the audience. Using these old outdated jokes for the primary format of his set was mind boggling. I can't believe people would pay for this. And the awkwardness of people having to laugh and smile thru it all is atrocious. Then the jokes about someone from Gaza blowing up the place. I truly hope no one targeted them after the show as BG mentioned him about a dozen times during his set. I have always adored the comedians at Kimmel and go there often. I won't be back to hear BGs shenanigans anytime soon, nor do I think Miguel or Jerrel the black guy will be either.
