Editorial Review for Caroline's on Broadway – by Citysearch Staff
In Short
This famed comedy club is a favorite space for veteran stand-up comics. The roster of past performers includes Saturday Night Live cast members and sitcom regulars--Jerry Seinfeld, Dave Chapelle, Janeane Garofalo and Anthony Clark--though Carolines also cultivates tomorrow's best by hosting a weekly New Talent Night. Early arrivals can dine on a mish-mash menu of American, Italian and Pan-Asian classics in the supper lounge prior to snagging stage-side seats in the Showroom.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoIn addition to ticket price, there is a two-drink minimum in the Showroom--and bubbly bought beforehand in the lounge does not count.
The ExtrasOnly those who arrive 90 minutes before showtime can dine in the supper lounge. However, a full menu is also served in the Showroom during performances.

I went there to see D'Vora Najee and some other new talent--they were all great, and worth the price. But the service was terrible. We didn't get a first drink until half-way through the show. There seemed to be a wait staff of 3 for a packed house. They weren't serving food yet and we were starving. But the show was first rate. I'd go again. It probably helps to be among the first seated.
Pros: Great talent, fun atmosphere
Cons: Two drink minimum, but there was no service to order drinks

For a place that upholds a two drink minimum, you would think that the waiter would have been more attentive. He got us one drink and then disappeared! By the time I could wave him over to order a second drink, the show was almost over! Then my friends and I had to gulp down the drinks and get out so they could seat for the next show.
Pros: comedians were funny, decently priced drinks
Cons: horrible, horrible waiter
