| - The place does what it does best - Comedy. The food, however. Blah.
First off, If you go to a show, please note there is a two item per person minimum. This means that from their extensive menu of overpriced bar food and drinks, you are REQUIRED to choose two items each.
Second, the sodas are NOT FREE REFILLS! I learned that one the hard way. Get water.
Third, before tipping your server, please make sure she hasn't already taken her cut out. Even after paying for two very bland, overpriced meals and way too many Diet Cokes, I thought that my bill was rather high. Upon further inspection, I noticed that my server had taken an 18% gratuity. The menu explicitly says that an automatic gratuity will be taken out for parties of six or more, but there was only two of us and we weren't even drunk. I found this tactic awfully presumptuous and left her tip at the 18% even though I typically tip well over 20%.
Overall, I don't like the idea of being required to purchase food just to see a comedy show. I can see why they do it, but if I were required to buy a crappy popcorn and overpriced pop every time I went to the movies, I would be far less inclined to go as I am not inclined to go to the Improv again.
