Fun & intimate atmosphere to enjoy a show. They have an outdoor garden patio and a nice bar with TVs for entertainment. Food is also served here. Staff is very friendly and attentive. A two item purchase per person is required. Parking is available close by for $6. Do not park in the Terry Black BBQ restaurant lot or you will be towed.

We had a good time at the Dallas Comedy Club. We attended the comedy improve show and stayed for the dark comedy show. The improve show definitely shows comedic talent and ability to think on their feet. The dark comedy was entertaining but may not be for everyone. Although, I felt more connected to the comedians in the dark comedy show. Overall, good comedians, service was very good and a decent venue.

I'd love to give less stars. I mean no nearby parking except street and a limited paid lot, some of the most disgusting and overpriced food even for a bar, and an MC and opening act that got mostly awkward laughs. The headliner Adam Mamawaha made my night and why I'm leaving a remotely positive review. If they can recognize and book this talent, then they can't be all bad.

The wife and I went to see our friends show. Never been before thought it would be a good time. The show was great, but the employees were rude. Only employee that was decent was a server we had to flag down. All others couldn't be bothered to wait on us. But then we saw that it was a minimum buy to watch the show. I would understand that for a free show...but for a paid show? Went to pay at the end of the show and was rushed out by the employees. Very rude and pushy so we couldn't check out at our seats and told us to close out at the bar. Not a great system, considering the bar was packed. Real convenient that if they can't close out your ticket they go ahead and add 20% gratuity and charge you at the end of the night. Even after the show ended the DJ/announcer got progressively more hostile in asking people to leave. Not sure what yelling at us accomplishes while we all are waiting to go out the same door behind everyone else. We definitely won't be back, but judging on how they treated us and our friends...I'm sure the venue couldn't care less. Recommend going to Plano, they have manners and their food is great for the price.

So we went to the Wednesday 7pm open mic! Yall, this is my new spot!! So they had a comedy improv jam at the same time but I wanted the open mics. They had a set list of 30 comics! The sets were a few minutes and I'm just so impressed! There's a big outside patio area, the entire staff are Amazing, Vinny was the server, unfortunately we ate before so didnt order food but the people around us did and it looked and smelled Amazing! They even had deserts that I would definitely order next time. So my advice, come hungry and be prepared to laugh! BTW we got free tickets on line, had no problem to park , absolutely love this place!!!

We randomly bought improv tickets having never been and had no idea what to expect. It ended up being such a fun and random show. It went in so many directions, constantly surprising us and making us laugh. They called on us a couple times, personalizing the show to us and others in the crowd. Such a cool experience and great for a date night

I had an incredibly disappointing experience at Dallas Comedy Club. From the moment we arrived, the staff was shockingly rude and unaccommodating. Our group was not allowed to sit together despite arriving early, and when we politely asked for clarification, we were met with hostility and even yelled at by the staff. Instead of helping to de-escalate the situation, the manager made things worse by being dismissive and confrontational. There was absolutely no effort made to resolve the issue—in fact, it felt like they went out of their way to make our visit unpleasant. A comedy club should be a place for fun and laughter, but this experience left a terrible impression. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a respectful and enjoyable night out.

This place is fun! I try regularly attending the brownout shows which highlight south Asians and other people of color. Comedy is an art form in its own right and the DCC does a great job fostering comedy of ALL type. Kudos to them for bringing us together LIVE instead of behind screens in our beds. There's something to be said about connecting with folks at shows like this. The food itself is decent and the drinks are good too. Their patio is a GREAT spot to get a pre show drink or 4 ;).

I am such a sucker for good improv and this place was worth the trip. There are several rooms in the place, I was in the back room for the improv. The cast was pretty entertaining, even if they had next to nothing to work with (absolutely dead crowd). The show was pretty good and I managed to impregnate one of the performers with Charles Xavier's baby (don't ask) So why only three stars? Because the place isn't very dinosaur friendly (I'm getting old) . I don't want to scan anything, I have prescription grade trust issues, I just want to pay cash and buy a ticket (this was a major issue). Also as a non-drinker, I'd rather have a few options other than having to buy two drinks (even when you buy food) Option 1: Buy a round for the performers. I've seen a few places do this and it's always a hit Option 2: Offer a ticket for a higher price that doesn't require the drink minimum All in all though, was a good hour of entertainment

Great venue. Dallas Comedy Club has a sleek vibe. Take caution with parking. Dallas comedy club does not have its own parking lot. The service is good, and the club has a wide variety of acts. From beginners to high profile professionals, Dallas Comedy Club enriches the comedy/improv community. I did not get the food here, the main draw are the acts.

Yelp
It was my first time at this venue, and I really liked the comedian! The room was small, so get there early if you want a good seat up front. The drinks were a bit pricey but good, and the spinach dip was tasty. I just wish the food and drinks came out a little faster. The staff was friendly and easy to find. They also had a patio where the comedians came out to chat.

As the son-in-law, planning the perfect birthday surprise for my mother-in-law, I couldn't have asked for a better experience than we had at the Dallas Comedy Club's improv night. The performers were hilarious, each bringing a unique flair of creativity and wit that kept us laughing throughout the evening. The club's atmosphere was perfectly tuned to the night's vibe, making everyone feel involved and excited. It was my mother-in-law's first comedy show, and she was thrilled beyond words. The staff went above and beyond, giving her a special shout-out at the end of the show that truly made her feel honored on her special day. A huge thank you to Rosie and all the staff at the club, as well as the incredibly talented comedians, for making this birthday one for the history books. It was a night full of laughter that undoubtedly solidified my cherished place in the family. Here's to many more!!

Yes, yes, yes! So much fun here. The drinks are excellent, strong but still flavorful. We saw Johnathan Ramos and he was very good. The food was meh but it's not really a restaurant so it makes sense. The mozzarella sticks are egos but the nachos were super plain and just okay. There is a 2 item minimum for each attendee, so be prepared. We will come back to see others. Great experience.

Yelp
Nice venue. We saw Nick Griffin. His style of comedy was entertaining regardless if you were gen X or a boomer. Drink prices were average for the area. You are seated by the person collecting tickets, so early arrival may put you in the front row.

Whether you're out in Deep Ellum for entertainment and/or to BE the entertainment, this theater knows what is up. I've been a proud supporter and performer here in an arrays of ways- stand up, variety show talent, improviser, sketch team member, and even a sketch competition participant (2nd year strong). What a blast! Start to finish, the owners and staff are warm and make you feel welcome and amplified. They offer classes of all kinds and host dope workshops, too. Solid patio outdoors for a group hang and karaoke. They will be celebrating their 3rd year anniversary soon. That's hard to believe as they fit right into the vibrant entertainment scene that is Deep Ellum. I just had the sweet potato fries and they were a banger! Eggrolls, nachos, and mozz sticks are all solid as well. They have Energy drinks and seltzers, as options. Do not sleep on the Jell-o shots. Such a fun after show treat after job well done! Parking can be hit or miss pending availability. There are streets up a block that have meters, lots for base fees and/or free spots closer to residential lofts. Brace yourself for parking time. Walking distance from Cbc and Double Wide. Peep their site for upcoming shows. Hope you've an awesome time!

I went on st. Patrick's Day with my best friend, on kind of a last-minute whim. We had dinner at the restaurant Local which is located down the street, and then headed over for the 10 PM showing. On the night that we went, they appeared to have two different showings. One was at 7 PM and the other was at 10 PM. When you walk in, it looks like a regular bar, but the employees will direct you to walk down the hallway to the left to the theater. They have a full bar and bar food but we didn't get any food as we had just eaten before. We were seated in the front row for the show and then our waitress came over to inform us that it was a two drink minimum per person. This is a little frustrating as we had already paid $70 for tickets and didn't know about the minimum. Our waitress also didn't come back to grab our order until the show was halfway over, so I only had time to drink one of my drinks (we could have stayed and finished the drink in the bar area but we wanted to go back home after the show was over) The show consisted of a variety of comics performing for 15 minutes at a time, and the entire entirety of the show was about an hour long. We happened to come on "dark humor" night and it was great. This is a great Dallas date night idea. I recommend it!

We had a good overall experience at Dallas Comedy Club. It's not very clear where you should go when you walk in. A few groups of people, including my group, were not sure where the line for our show was. The show room was small. Waitstaff were friendly enough. We ordered beef nachos. We were surprised that the beef was brisket (menu didn't specify and we expected ground beef). There was an error on our oder, but nothing major. There isn't any parking specifically for the venue. You have to find street parking nearby.

Amazing hosts, great food. Comedy was top notch. Ample parking is available too. Hosts were friendly enough to show us the room and seats before buying tickets too.

Great community of incredibly funny people! I was introduced to DCC by a friend of mine. Since then, I have taken 2 comedy courses and been to a number of shows. Whether you are looking for a supportive means to get into comedy or are just looking for a night of laughs, this is the place to do it. The open mic is also a great forum to test out new jokes and meet other aspiring comedians. If you decide to take their classes, I highly recommend Magen King. She takes so much care in teaching you the in and outs of stand-up & is always there to help guide you through the joke writing process up to your final performance. My class enjoyed her so much that we all moved on to do her Level 2 class.

Went to catch a show with mi amor in Sunday night. There was a standup competition with about 10 up and coming comics. Nice little spot with a good selection of drinks. Tickets were cheap too. It does get crowded and it can take a while to get a drink or pay your tab at the bar. That night, I only noticed one guy behind the bar. Definitely needs to have more for that big of a crowd. Other than that a pretty chill location close to deep Ellum.

Looking for some Friday night fun, googled comedy shows near me and here we are! Ticket prices were very reasonable. There was parking nearby for $6, we didn't have to walk too far. The building setup (had to enter through the bar area) and huge outdoor seating area was nice. My husband and I ordered the queso and chips, lemon pepper wings (really good) to eat along with a Bloody Mary (really good) and apple crown. The staff was welcoming, friendly and very laidback. Definitely a casual atmosphere. The comedy show was as advertised, an interactive impromptu skit comedy show. It may cater to a certain demographic which is probably why we only laughed a few times. May need a little more staff diversity. All in all I'd recommend as a spot to hangout, not sure about that comedy show though. Very lively venue!

Dallas Comedy has become a home away from home! The service is always so friendly and the shows are always a blast to watch, whether it's sketch, standup, or improv. They have yummy food and drink selections, and the patio is a great place to hang before or after the shows. Also, they have a great selection of classes if you are interested in doing more than just watching comedy. Great establishment - two thumbs up - highly recommend!

Yelp
Great and exciting things are happening at DCC. It's already building a reputation for cultivating and fostering impressively funny talent in Dallas like Ralph Barbosa. In it you'll find a main room for stand up as well as a smaller stage for improv. You can order food and drinks during performances or order them at their stylish bar where you can usually meet some of the performers. What sets this place apart is their mission to not only deliver the laughs but also to provide high quality training , entertainment, and extraordinary shared human experiences. Owners Ian & Rosie Caruth have built a inclusive and creative community at DCC. Oh, and try the butter toffee cake!

I had a great time checking out the Dallas Comedy Club. The staff were super friendly and the comedians were all so funny. Definitely would come back again for more comedy.

Megan L.

Yelp
Was expecting way more to be honest. Was definitely not 20 dollars worth of comedy, more like 50 cents. I didn't even enjoy my beer especially after a lady was drunk falling on my table. The 2 dollar minimum drinks or food was terrible and was overpriced for the show. Do not recommend.

Went to my first ever comedy show here and it was amazing. The staff was extremely helpful before the show providing info about the show and seating arrangements. Before the show, the bar staff was great and had speedy service. Good drinks and good laughs. Perfect date night spot

This is my favorite spot in Dallas. Cheap tickets to great shows, an awesome staff , and good drinks!! I love the interactive improv!

It was my first time checking this spot out and honestly I should have visited sooner. A friend and I came here for the comedy show. I arrived early and starving and luckily they had food. I got the wings and fries which was enough food for me and definitely shareable. I got the only rum drink listed on their menu and it was tasty. I also had a few of their Jell-O shots during the show and they didn't disappoint. Overall the cost of a ticket is reasonable and so are the costs of food/drinks. The comedians were funny. The seating is intimate so there isn't really a bad seat- maybe the first row (VIP seats) for those that don't like to get picked on by the comedians could be considered uncomfortable seats. I plan to visit again

Haven't been out to Deep Ellum in a very long time and came for my bestie birthday to the show. This place is so awesome, the bartenders and managers and so nice. Everyone was nice can't say anything negative or bad about this place. Service was fast for drinks with smiles!! Patio was awesome too. So beautiful and they came no questions and did the heaters for us, since it was cold. Corn hole and other games outside balcony. Will be back one day again!!

Highly recommend taking a sketch class or at the very least stopping by to catch any of the many shows they have going on all the time. Fun place with a great staff. Good eats and drinks too!

Loved the theater and the comedian was amazing! First time here. Unfortunately the food was terrible...nachos w/ chicken that was overcooked to the max, eggrolls were burnt and chicken wings seemed microwaved. Should have just gotten 8 drinks to cover the minimum.

This is the BEST place in DFW to see a show, take a class, and have a beer. The new items on the food menu are a must also. The bartenders and servers are super friendly.

This place is amazing! The staff are so helpful and welcoming, and there are so many different shows to see! I come here all the time and love the classes too. Wow!!

LISTEN, definitely my favorite place to be for comedy, a nice bar, and welcoming people. You literally always have a good time here! THEY JUST REDID THEIR MAIN STAGE and it looks amazing, I can't believe they have somewhere this nice in Deep Ellum. Their bar is clean and nice, and people are kind (and funny, duh).

This place has potential, but needs to get organized on some things. The timing for the show was significantly delayed, but it's comedy, so punctuality isn't always expected. Got a few drinks at the bar, then waited in line to sit. When they opened the doors (40 minutes late), we were seated at a table. The room looks like it could be really good, they just need to finish the construction. Once at the table, servers came to ask if we wanted food or drinks. We already had drinks from the bar. The server pointed out a table ad stating that there was a 2 item per person minimum during the show. We had already paid $25/person for tickets to the show, and there was nothing stating when purchasing the tickets that a minimum service would be required. This was also shared from the stage when the show started. It wasn't enforced at the end, but they need to be cleared on this policy when booking. As for the comedy, there was good and bad. MC was nervous, but alright. I think he was a student at one of their comedy classes. Second act was really good and worth the price of admission. The headliner had potential, but could never get traction. He was so aware of the misses and kept pointing it out making it even more awkward. Several of the tables were talking a lot and were never approached to stop table talk during the acts, leaving patrons to hush other tables. Eventually the most disruptive tables left during the headliner, which was probably the highlight moment of his act. Comedy doesn't always hit, that's part of it. We would come back to try it again, but we hope they take some time to get more professional and organized on service, policies and creating a good vibe.

This place is great. I have seen an improv and stand up show. Lots of seats and space.

I started taking classes when they first opened and haven't stopped since. Everyone is so supportive and helpful and I've made tons of new friends...which is difficult as an adult. I am an introvert who had never performed onstage or taken theater classes, etc., so I've been pushing my comfort zones --growing and learning. The shows are fun and affordable and I recommend supporting your local arts community. They also have food/drinks! And you can rent the space for events and parties as well as hiring instructors for workshops, and much more! Just ask! :) SO FUN!

Zandri B.

Yelp
A must go if you're visiting or need a last minute entertainment idea. Cheap or free events that are 100% worth it! There is a two item minimum for the bar/grill but it is easily met. Came for one show and ended up staying for all three that night I had so much fun!

Dallas' hottest club is DCC! This place has everything! Mini corndogs and frozen cherry limeade. A really nice dude who checks your tickets at the door. Karaoke on Thursdays. Improv teams. What's that? It's when they make up a show based on a word you say. A patio where you can write on the tables with chalk. Funny touring comics. Fully local comics. Funny touring local comics. Servers who serve you during the show. Southwest egg rolls. Clean bathrooms with warm water when you wash your hands. Seriously, this place is so fun! It's at the quieter end of Deep Ellum and is the ultimate hangout spot. When the weather is nice it's the perfect place to sit on the patio with friends--or make new friends! Everyone who works there is so nice and a lot of their regular performers are super cool. They have shows with tickets at different price points so there's always something to see. Most underrated spot in Dallas!

Lincoln G.

Yelp
I love love love this place. Great to come wind down and enjoy some live comedy . I personally enjoy the open mics but they have show options for literally everything and everyone. The open mic is free and most tickets are very very affordable! Occasionally they'll require a purchase of 2 items which I don't mind at all since it was already free in the first place. Very nice bar, atmosphere, large patio, free parking area behind back which is awesome considering this is located near one of the busiest parts of Dallas. For all the times I've been, the Crowd is always respectful of the comics. Im so glad that dallas has a place like this. It's literally one of my favorite places to go.

Sean D.

Yelp
If you're looking for laughs then definitely go here. Went for our first time and it didn't disappoint. Having said that I guess it's all up to the comic and if you find them funny or not but we enjoyed ourselves. There is a two drink minimum but they are averaged priced so you're not being overcharged. It may include non alcoholic beverages as well but don't take my word on that. Staff was very helpful and if you need to communicate via email (our show was moved due to a winter storm a couple of months back) they respond very quickly. Oh and they have their own bar with outdoor seating area and some food if you want to get there early and just take your time.

Marisa G.

Yelp
Venue is nice but they served me a shot in a cracked glass! I asked for a new glass and they ignored my request. This is a health department violation!

Madison H.

Yelp
It takes a lot for me to leave a bad review but I didn't even crack a smile this place was so unamusing. Apparently the management doesn't let the comedians be themselves and say what they want to in their jokes. Maybe if they'd let them tell their own jokes it would be entertaining... sadly I didn't even let out a giggle. If I could give 0 stars I would. Definitely saw potential but this business does not let comics perform their full potential, so sad. If the management sees this please let the performers be themselves free range, it's 2022 get it together.

Erica G.

Yelp
This place rules. Going to stand-up or interactive improv shows is a great way to set the tone before/after going to concerts in the area, and there's a ton of parking available on Elm/Main that sits outside of the street barricades on weekends, making it easy to get in/out at any time of night. Additionally, they offer improv, standup, and sketch classes, which are applicable to everyone wanting to improve their presentation skills, and not just those interested in performing (although it's great for that, too). Maximum stars!

Went to the club last night. We had so much fun! The stand up comedian, Ian Bagg, was hilarious! Food was delicious! We ate the southwestern egg rolls and the I&R stir fry. Both were excellent. Going back again tonight. Highly recommend!

For a comedy club, it doesn't seem like this place can take a joke. A lot of negative energy and unhappy workers. Very disappointed with my visit.

We love the family friendly comedy shows on Sunday. Great ticket prices and my kids loved being apart of the show. The team did a fantastic job working with the younger audience. Also, the venue is great and the food was good. We will be back!

Frank J.

I attended the date night improv and had my expectations exceeded. The comedians were hilarious and the acting was super smooth. I haven't laughed that hard ever at a local comedy show but I'd for sure recommend this location to anyone looking for a good laugh. The food and drinks are also not super expensive and there was no drink requirement which was very nice and surprising. The jokes were also much more thoughtful and funny rather than simply resorting to racism to get some cheap laughs (I'm looking at you Lol Comedy)

Kaylee N.

Yelp
My first time here and our group really enjoyed it! The place is spacious, has decent food and drinks and is similar to Alamo Drafthouse in the way you order. The show was funny, part improv part sketch. There's a parking lot nearby for $10 or parking meter is available as well.

Lyn J.

Yelp
I enjoyed my time here. It is actually the first place I've been to in Downtown Dallas since moving to Texas. The building is spacious inside with many different rooms holding different events. Stand up open mic in one (free admission on Tues when I went), improvisation in another, classes, etc. They have a bar and a nice outdoor patio just off of it. Nice fun photos that adorn the halls as you walk down the aisles, and the staff are uber friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to go here again for an evening out.

Will S.

Yelp
If the lady upfront sees you adding to the comedy show, cheering or evening being apart of she will kick you out. I had multiple comedians talking about me( in a good way ) and she kicks me out out for disrupting the show. Like huh its a comedic show ?

I couldn't have imagined a better place than DCH to be in my life. If you're looking for a great night out, with delicious food (it's not bar food - it's actually really great food) DCH is your place. If you want to be a part of the comedy community, DCH is your place. If you want a place to sit on a patio and have a beer or a burger or fries, DCH is your place.
