National Comedy Theatre, San Diego CA

Great experience! A very talented group of comedians. Not only that but they kept it clean and it was kid safe. It is hard to find great comedy that stays family friendly. Bravo! We went to the 7: 30PM show; however, I am told the 9: 45 show is geared toward an older crowd.

If you like improv, this is the place for you. Expect to get there a bit early if you want your party to sit together. This is not like a comedy club with table service and a drink minimum. There is a limited amount of alcohol and movie theater type snacks. Seats are comfortable. Staff is amazing! The show us varying so come with good suggestions to help.

Great improv show! It was very PG, but still a fun time. I believe the ref mentioned more adult content starting in January? We’ll be back then! Thanks for the laughs.

Guaranteed laughs. Not you typical comedy club. No drink minimums, different show every time. You will laugh I promise.

Absolutely hilarious experience! Incredible how the cast is able to make things come together from audience suggestions.

Checked out this improv show for the first time last Friday and it was so much fun! Definitely a nice change from your typical movie night. The best part is that every time you go back, the show will be different which makes me want to go back every week! The humor was good, the actors were funny and witty, and the host was simply hilarious.
This is an excellent activity to do for a birthday, bachelorette party, date night, friends outing, if you have family or friends visiting from out of town, really for anything. And the tickets are super affordable.
They sell snacks and drinks/beer and its close to several restaurants and bars if you want a bite or drink before or after the show. Parking can be tricky, especially on a Friday night. It's mostly street parking in the area so allot time to find parking and and walk to the theatre.

Such a fun time! I attended with a large group of people and were laughing so hard we were in tears. They do a great job of engaging the audience and putting on an awesome show. I will definitely be back soon!

Excellent place to take a date or to bring your friends or family for a night of good fun. No two shows are ever the same and there is even an unrated show Fridays at 9: 45 pm for more adult type laughs. Highly recommended!

Went with my family to their 7: 30 Main Stage show.
Parking is problematic in the area, but it's San Diego, so. Found valet parking for $5, tho, so that worked out nicely!
Improv is always hit and miss, but this was mostly hit, and they knew when they missed and were able to laugh at themselves when they did, so even the misses were entertaining.
Right now you need immunization card and masks, just so you are aware. Their website and tickets purchased online remind you of that fact.
We had a great time! The MC was great and so were the performers. The teams were smaller than when we've attended in the past, but I'm sure that's just a sign of the times.

If the show isn't amazing, it's the audience's fault; so maybe don't invite someone who is a total bummer. Our cast took some very poor suggestions and created a hysterical show. My wife and I have attended 3 times, and will certainly be back in the future.

The first trip here pre covid 5 stars. My face hurt I laughed so hard!

4 stars during COVID. It's hard to do an audience based show during a pandemic.

What a fun place to visit at a Friday or Saturday night. I really enjoyed my show. The people here are nice and friendly. The comedians are professional and funny. I love the atmosphere here. The 7: 30pm show on Friday is very family friendly, which you can bring your kids to enjoy. But the one at 9: 30 is unrated which is more for adults. I’ll give it a try the next time.

It was my first time there. Didn't know what to expect. But had a great time. It's fun and you laugh a lot. Highly recommend.

Absolutely incredible deal for the quality. There's a rotating cast, new material every time, and a cute little playhouse vibe. The jokes made by the referee get stale after a while, but only after a dozen or so shows. It's worth going to that many.

You don't realize that there is a comedy theater there. Having been it is a great stage and had a great time. Need to come back for their Friday shows.

Seems corny until you go. Take a date or a friend. They give beer and you are part of the show because they take your suggestions. If you're looking to make friends, take their classes it is the best. I forgot my student ID 10 times in a row because I graduated already, still get the discount.
