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.

We went for Ian Munisk and The Kruse Brothers. What a great show and venue. Would definitely go to other concerts
Classic venue. Have seen concerts here. Have seen the Marching 110 Varsity Night show here. Really not a bad seat in the house.
4/17/25 My Morning Jacket show was fantastic. First time at historic TB Memorial Auditorium. Well staffed with mostly college aged kids. All the staff that I spoke with were helpful & curtious . The clean, well maintained 2000 seat venue doesn’t have a bad seat (from what I could tell). Entry was easy & relaxed. Stamped hand gets you re entry! The only negative might be limited selection at bar.
We saw Damon Darling there..Great Show..venue was nice. Not a bad seat in the house.
Had balcony seats for the MMJ show and the acoustics of the venue were truly amazing...A true blessing for them doing this show which was one the most amazing that I have ever witnessed.
