Finish dinner 30+ minutes before showtime. Most restaurants offer pre-theater menus.
Highly recommended, especially for evening performances. Book ahead to avoid disappointment.
Most listed restaurants are within 5-10 minutes walk. Factor in extra time during busy hours.

Amazing venue. You can't beat 6 bucks for parking, either. Staff were great and so clean.
Staff was exceptionally helpful. A great affordable family venue. The suites are small and good for a small group to get together. Not a bad seat in the house. Go and have fun!
Concert was great. The person checking purses wouldn't let me in because my purse was 1/4 inch larger than the required size. I emptied the purse so the contents could be seen. Nope, had to take it back to my car
Very nice venue for shows. Downfall is they don't have elevators, if you are in balcony, and three flights of stairs are a workout for some. Seats are narrow too if you have a double or triple x sized adult. Lots of refreshment options, that you can take to your seat. Great conversation with Chevy Chase show. It brought back a lot of memories. My son liked the show, National Lampoons Christmas, too. First time he saw it!
Smaller venue but it was nice and easy to find your seat.
