Improvisation Cafe

This is a great place to grab a quick meal, have a few drinks and hang out with easy going people. I have been to this location many differrent times and have had fun EVERY time! This IS NOT a 5 star restaurant...it's a comedy club. So, expect the "bar food" to be the best of the menu selection, the chicken wings and chicken strips are great! The bar is great and the prices are reasonable for a Hollywood establishment. As far as the comedy, anything goes...but its always good! If you can't keep an open-mind about contraversial topics and crude humor, not to mention the vulgar language...stay home and watch the comedy sitcoms on Nick at Night-this place is NOT for you! I would recommend this place to anyone that wants to have a good laugh and a great time. Leave the uptight, narrow-minded, conservative types at home where they belong!! ~A Good Laugh IS Good For the Soul~ Pros: You can meet most of the comedians after the show. Love the bar! Cons: Limited street parking. You're better off parking valet. more

We just came home from New Year's Eve at The Improv--the food was awful and the humor was vulgar and rarely funny. One comic on stage could not cope with a little heckling from an audience member and had him removed by security, although the audience member had quieted down and was just trying to be funny. Afterall, isn't that the point of going to a comedy club? The comedians were not even smart enough to turn the audience's behavior into comedy as one finds in good improv clubs. My recommendation for the New Year--skip this club, unless you wanted to be roughed up by the comedy-club police. Cons: food, quality of the comedians, security guards more

I grew up in LA yet have little experience with the Improv. Went the other night with my fiance and found it well staffed and very pleasing. The comedians were fantastic and the wait staff was attentive while practically unseen. The food is mediocre, but not bad. The small bar after the show was the place to be. The bartender poured heavy drinks in big glasses and we hung out with some of the comedians, who were gracious and tons of fun. All drinks priced reasonably, including a double Bailey's on the rocks for less than $10! It's not refined or spectacular, but I had a great time tying one on at the Improv. Pros: Mellow atmosphere, great bartender, kind staff Cons: small bar, average foood more
