The Gem — Restaurant in Idaho Falls

Rarely do I leave a one-star review but this venue does not even deserve that. Recently went to a show and it was disappointing. Spent nearly 3 hours waiting for the artist to start. There was an opening act that played for about 30 mintues. The DJ at The Gem is HORRIBLE. People were there for a country concert and while waiting for about the first 30 or 40 minutes everyone was singing and dancing to the country music being played. The genre then changed to rap and everyone was on their phones while the DJ was enjoying himself and singing to notice that he had lost the crowd. These concerns were brought up to the venues representative and while she was extremely argumentative and defensive while I was sharing my experience, I was threatened to have my wristband taken away and to be kicked out. I now prefer to catch the performers before they come to Idaho Falls or their next stop afterwards before going...

All around incredibly good people working there. 100% will go back. I went there for a concert but I will say in a heartbeat that (as a previous security worker) 2 of the security team I met were incredibly good people and also great at their job.

The barback/bartender also was a great dude, helped me get out quick when I told him my girl was pregnant and not...

Excellent atmosphere and great shows, located on 1st street in Idaho Falls, and reopened! The prices are great, and the staff is upbeat and friendly. You'll find a variety of shows for whatever flavor of music suites you. There is comfy little mezzanine area upstairs to cool off and take awesome pictures/videos and the sound and lights crews get the show lit so you get the full "live concert" experience.

Definitely...
