I have to say this is the absolute worst comedy club I’ve ever been to. I thought it was something funny at the door when it was only $11 but I thought I’ve been to comedy clubs that were cheap and good so I’m like let me give it a chance at this point I Ordered food I read reviews before going was kind of sketched because one guy said he had a very bad experience with the price and how they charged him, but I’ll have to agree with him later in the story. First of all the bill was $50 when it went to show what I was being charged for the ladies skipped the screen, and Said just tapped my card which was really sketchy. Then the comedy sucked. None of the acts were hardly funny and then there was nobody at the door, we’re just standing there waiting by the comedy show was going on which is crazy. Nobody stays at the door then towards the end of the show I asked the lady do you guys have open mic? she went to say something then completely turned around and started talking to some guy beside me at another table and forgot all about me walked off towards the front of the stage, passed by me again, and never said a word worst customer service ever I thought it was funny only because the comedians were joking about how bad customer services in America if you want that come to this place The brisket quesadilla was good, but not worth the money Then, as I walked out of the establishment, not even finishing the show I see the guy who hitting me my food sitting out front rolling up a marijuana blunt. I’m like oh that’s great. I hope he wasn’t cooking my food. It sad to say I won’t return sad because I could’ve came here every weekend.
I have a great time the service was helpful an i went during they Halloween set and the host was my favorite would come again
Went to a show here and I have to say, Upstage Comedy Lounge will not disappoint! It's a great setup for 2 top tables or bigger parties. I don't think there's a bad seat in the house. Obviously we had a bunch of laughs, so we'll be back for sure!
The opening acts were funny and Sarper held it down. Glad we went to the show.
Great comedians and drinks with premium liquor. Great atmosphere love the vibe.
Mercedes was and amazing waitress very attentive go see Mercedes
Thanks Mike for putting this together you and your team dude great. Had a good time. Would definitely return.
Love this place me and my wife love it here
Mercedes was AMAZING fast and friendly! I’m definitely coming back again and again! By far the best place I’ve been in San Antonio for a fun time.
