- I like this place, they've got great comedians and a sweet staff. Arrive early and eat before the show.
ShawnOctober 27, 2013Absolutely love this comedy club. It has a two item minimum bit the comedians are always top notch and hilarious.- alex retodoApril 25, 2012This is the best place to go for great comedy in the city of San Diego. The American Comedy Co. is based in the historic Gas Lamp Quarter. They brough acts like Bobby Lee, Tom Arnold, and Drew Carey
Olivia LalsinghSeptember 11, 2016Great Time!!! We saw Pablo Francisco. Wish we were here for Brad Williams in October! A must see while in SanDiego.
Good food and great shows. Come a bit early as seating is first come first served.
Raquel SanchezSeptember 18, 2016If you're looking for a good cocktail, try Flor de Havana. The wings were delicious too!
Tere PattersonFebruary 9, 2014Tommy Davidson still has it! He was too funny! My face is hurting from laughing so much. He gave me a high 5 after his set. It was way cool.- joe bobNovember 30, 2013They get some big name comedians, however I'm not a big drinker and don't appreciate the 2 drink minimum and would rather not pay $5 for a small bottle of water, but I understand they have to make $$$
- Donte KenleySeptember 19, 2013Saw Shawn Wayans and he was hilarious! The Steak and Cheese was also good as far as a food to choose.
- Tere PattersonMay 6, 2014Best entertainment value in San Diego on Tuesday night. Can you say free?!!
- alex retodoApril 29, 2012Try out the Mac & Cheese or the Philly Cheese Steak & Fries! The best place for a dinner & show.
CourtneyDecember 21, 2012Order the burger and a beer! Thursday night shows are great, get there early and enjoy $2 off drafts.
Alicia WahlJanuary 27, 2017Buy tickets online ($6), not at the door ($14). Drinks are way overpriced...spent $50 without tip for 4 drinks.
Lyndsi WinerSeptember 10, 2014Beware of the two item Minimum. Their choice selection is horrible, price INSANE and their management even worse. Stay away from this place and find other forms of entertainment. You are warned!
Terrible sound system and the bar kitchen in the back is noisy making it tough all around to hear dem jokes
