| - I'M going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride. OH SORRY I will stop singing.
This is one of my top spots to catch live music. They have an upstairs which is a bit larger and has an open space for dancing, there have been a quite a few top acts, Macy Gray and 10,000 Maniacs, Carlos Jones to name a few. The downstairs is more of a sit down and chill to some music vibe and access to their awesome patio.
I really like the vibe of this place and it sports amazing views of the Flats, and Cuyahoga river.
They have a pretty nice menu, I have never eaten here, but my friends have all enjoyed the food. They have a full bar, and cocktails are reasonably priced. They definately do not gouge you like a couple other downtown venues do, cough cough HOB.
Music Box has what i judge to have excellent management. The employees really do there best to treat people right. Let me tell you a story:
I was here for a concert with who is now a very ex friend of mine. We got to the show pretty late. We had very good seats but one of our seats was already taken, they sat someone in it already. Not, the end of the world, right. They moved our party into comparable seats maybe even better, but one of us had to sit at another table, but close by.My ex friend asked to speak to the manager then she started to berate and scream at her saying how you do this, swearing at her. I Took her to the side and pretty much told her to shut up. I then apologized to the manager for my ex friends behavior and said hey I understand we were late not a huge deal. The manager then said you know what your drinks are on the house and she gave us I think at least 100 dollars in gift cards. That tells the caliber of people that run MBSC. I mean if someone would have spoken to me that way I would have tossed their asses out and never let them come back. And on a side note people that abuse people in the service industry are usually lousy human beings.
Thank you Music Box for doing what you do and making DT CLE that much more awesome.
