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.

Absolutely beautiful, artistically designed venue. Sitting in the orchestra section, it was a little difficult to hear the orchestra with the vocalist being amplified. I would like to try sitting in a higher level and see if the sound is better. Nevertheless, it's a great experience to see a concert here.
One of my favorite places to enjoy music. Wonderful atmosphere and creative people always give you positive energy and feelings of gratitude and appreciation. Highly recommend to all age groups. Family friendly place. Bring all your ed ones and enjoy Life
A concert hall on par with the Walt Disney concert hall in LA. Beautiful lobby with plenty of natural light. Moreover, the lobby feels very open. Each for has there mini bar seeking snacks and beverages (alcoholic and sodas). Expect to pay a very steep price for drinks. The acoustics in the hall were amazing. We where at level 400 and the quality of the sound was loud and crisp. Seats were very comfortable. Parking was $15 at the time of our visit. The concert hall is conveniently located in south Orange county near South Coast plaza and the freeway. Several cafes are nearby by and on site.
Tonight was my first experience here at the concert hall. My partner had been here previously for another show and told me nothing but great things about the venue. We were here to see Jeremy Jordan perform live. It was incredible. My partner absolutely loves him. It was our first time seeing him. It's so beautiful on the inside and the acoustics are phenomenal. 10/10 would definitely come back again.
I visited here last week because there was a piano concert by my favorite pianist, Yeol Eum Son. There were many security guards around and inside the building, so I could see that they were very concerned about safety. The exterior of the building was also nice, and the interior of the performance hall had a design reminiscent of a trilobite, which is probably for sound effects. The concert of the orchestra and pianist Yeal Eum Son was truly wonderful, and it deeply touched everyone present. I will definitely come back next time when there is a performance by other musicians.
