"I love the Comedy Cellar in NYC so I have been anxiously awaiting the opening of the Vegas club. I jumped at the chance to go opening night. The location in the Rio is the same room where Eddie Griffin used to play but you would never recognize it. They did a great job recreating the feel of the original Comedy Cellar. Nothing is going to be the original, especially in a casino in Las Vegas but they really make you forget where you are for a bit. \n\nEach show is a host and 4 comedians. All 4 comedians were great. They each do about 15-20 min which is perfect because you are getting their best stuff. \n\nAll seating is general admission. There are 3 sections \nVIP GA- which is right up front. Don't sit here if you don't want to be called out or asked questions. \nPreferred GA- this is the middle section. \nGA- This is the furthest back section.\n\nIt is a small room so really anywhere you sit will be ok. We sat in preferred section and had great seats. It is all tables so there is always a chance that someone could be blocking you but we didn't have that problem. I would recommend getting there early. Doors opened at 6:30 for our 7pm show. Our show got out late so we were leaving right around 9 when the next show was supposed to start. I'm sure that was just a first night kinks thing. \n\nThe only thing keeping it from 5 stars for me is that there were no cocktail waitresses. At least not in my section. It's Vegas we like to drink. One woman came over to ask if we wanted food, we declined as we had just ate but said we would like a drink. She said the cocktail waitress would be over shortly to take our order but no one ever came. There is a bar in the front when you walk in, but being general admission we wanted to get to our seats. When we were told a cocktail waitress was coming we didn't see a reason to go to the bar. Once the show started we didn't want to get up and miss any of the show. We actively looked for a cocktail waitress and couldn't find anyone. I am sure this will be rectified in the future. Just in case I would recommend getting there early, getting your seat and then go to the bar. That's what I will be doing next time.\n\nRight now tickets for locals are only $25\n\nMust be 18+ to attend"^^ . "4"^^ . . "1"^^ . . "2018-04-06T00:00:00"^^ . "2"^^ . . "10"^^ .
