| - This place was originally Hooper's. The owners redid the place, upgraded the menu a little bit, and added a small Comedy Zone in a side room. Hooper's was a little on the rough side, with even a stabbing before the renovations and renaming. However, they did have good food for a bar.
The place now looks a lot nicer, boasting a lot of nice hardwood decor in the bar/seating area. Most of the wait staff are helpful and friendly, but there are one or two bartenders who have a bit of an attitude. The food is similar to what was served at Hooper's albeit a little more streamlined. Overall, it is still mostly fried apps, a lot of burgers and wraps, and an occasional $15 entree. The food is a little above par for bar food.
The Comedy Zone is in a small room inside the place with a very small stage. It probably sits about 80-90 people crammed together. They often send out free tickets if you sign up for their emails. It's definitely a good time and makes a good night out - sometimes even cheaper than a movie. They also offer dinner and a show packages.
If you're on the south side of Charlotte, I'd say go check it out. It's a cool little place with decent food, reasonably priced, and the comedians are usually funny (though they can often be R rated).
