House Of Blues Restaurant & Bar

Really neat music venue/bar/restaurant!! Attended a concert here, it was general admission standing room, and it was surprisingly clean, spacious, and had classy decorations in the interior. Beautiful design inside and outside - the restaurant looked great & we hope to try it next time. Parked under the highway bridge (back of the building, on the corner) at the parking lot shared by the sci museum and nearby restaurants. Paid parking was only about $5 for 4 hours max which is a great deal for concert goers if you’re looking for a cheap, close by lot. Had no trouble exiting or entering for the event itself as traffic passed somewhat quickly. Thoroughly enjoyed our experience and we look forward to coming back!

Went to the Dope Lemon + Franklin Jonas concert here. Great show. Great sound mixing/acoustics. Great drinks (I love that they take both cash and card). Great atmosphere. (There’s always the annoying people who get there late and try to push in front of you, a person who got there early and waited in line to get as close to the front as possible, but that’s literally everywhere/any show...) I’d always heard positive things about The House of Blues but I’m a huge skeptic. And from start to finish, I was thoroughly impressed. It’s always nice to walk away impressed from a venue/show…

Venue was in a nice location where I could access all day parking in a garage about 2/3 blocks away for $6/day. Security was helpful and kind and provided water to concert goers who had been waiting outside. Beautiful & spacious inside with full bars & snacks. The sound was great, better than the house of blues in Houston. 5 stars all around!

I have been attending shows here my entire life. Great size venue for a more intimate show. Everywhere is a good spot usually! I've made the best memories here seeing so many artists. The drinks are so expensive though. You could get a 6 pack of beer for the price of 1 here, but I'm guessing that is most venues these days. I recently saw First Aid Kit and the sound guy was having issues a lot, but I know it is more challenging with the PA to the side of the house versus the middle or back of the room like some other venues. Could have just been a rough night. It happens! The staff is super nice to everyone. & The bathrooms have pretty good toilet paper lol.

Have visited a few times (APR22, MAR23) and both visits have had outstanding concerts. Parking is a plus with multiple lots directly across the street and has never been an issue. Acoustics and lighting are excellent. When possible, we always book a VIP upgrade at the table section (lower level) as VIP balcony is not always available and dependent on ticket sales. VIP coordinator Jose is great to work with - equally attentive to customizing the experience and always available for a multitude of questions. That said, food/menu options in this section are very lackluster and servers have not been the best rarely coming back. Further, it should be noted that general logistics from entry lines to pre-show meet and greets are usually very unorganized so be prepared for additional wait times. Additionally, bathrooms are minimal with long lines typically so be prepared to wait on that end as well. At the end of the day, it’s a great place for shows but there is opportunity for improvement.

I've been a few times to see my favorite artists. I am either in the stands or on the floor, and it's been great every time. I never park at the venue. I either carpool or catch a ride (it's just easier). Getting in is seamless. Yes, there's security but I only bring my essentials. Food and drink prices are decent. Oh, and the food is good. After that it's all about the music.
