Jan 27 update on location: there are 2 entrances, one on either side of the Rene-Levesque escalator/stairs. When you turn right after coming down you will go through a maze of restaurants so turn left and it's right there.
Jan 26 We had an amazing time and made a full night of this once we found it. A heads up many people get lost and our best route was from inside the train station by the Rene-Levesque Blvd stairs/escalator.
Clean, great service, and food portions were "massive" so if you're eating, make sure you're hungry. Prices were great, we paid maximum $21 for each of our meals which included dessert. I had the best grilled chicken I've ever had, it had Greek style flavourings. My husband had the smoked meat. Both were loaded with fries.
We got there super early, 7 pm, to get a seat and eat. Lots of reserved tables near the front but loads of seating and it didn't start to really fill up till 30 minutes before the show. Started on time at 9 pm and went till 10:30 pm with 5 comedians plus the host. All hilarious. Americans, hope you have a thick upper lip though. I would definitely go back for a night here and may even have that grilled chicken while waiting for my train. Thanks for the wonderful night and thanks to our server who was on top of it all and...
Read moreTonight's "MADMIX Late Night Stand-Up Comedy" (shared at an off-site location) was a failed middle school attempt... More often than not, comedians are highly skilled to relate with their audiences (e.g., age, gender, race, religion, politics, professions, weather, pop culture). If there is a lineup, like tonight, they play with different content. Two of the seemingly many had fairly good content. Earnestly tonight was the first night ever in my life attending comedy, that it was a fail... I attended for something to do before my red eye assuming it would have been fantastic. A disappointment to leave such a great city on this note. The positive was the wait staff - they were kind...
Perhaps it was just an off night. The other reviews rave about this club...
P.S. I was contacted with additional context after leaving the review. I did not read the fine print. If considering a night out, highly recommend to understand ahead of a show - if the line up has experience or if they are amateurs trying out new content and gaining experience. Having that mind set may shift an expectation for one's...
Read moreWe recently organized a private event at comedyville for a small group of international guests (20) visiting in Montreal at a conference, and Ali did a phenomenal job hosting the comedy show and taking care of everyone. The show itself was fun and Ali did a good job selecting performers and making it somewhat clean and suitable for a business audience. Comedyville also organized catering for the evening from the menu and arranged drinks serving, and it all went very smoothly. Highly recommended for company events! Super affordable option compared to other venues such as Cathcart in the area, and you get a show as a bonus! Only (minor) issue is how the guests will find the place, you will need to provide detailed instructions for the guests on how to arrive. The Google Maps pin is not in the right place, as this venue is located direcly under the La Reine Elisabeth hotel, even accessible from the elevators there in the lobby. (Suggested...
