What People Are Saying About Carolines On Broadway

Citysearch
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 Caroline's also cultivates tomorrow's best by hosting a weekly New Talent Night on Mondays. 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.

shame on your carolines
by t114139 at Citysearch
we stood in line for an 1and 1/2 for the 12:30 show to see paul mooney. They then turned the outside lights off on a sizeable line of people, after the doorman joked with us for 20 minutes about how we would get in , in a few minutes. The couple in front of us had been waiting since 10:30 . They were sent away and told to come back at 12:00. The couple behind us had a reservation. Needless to say none of us got in. I understand that clubs get crowed and shows sell out. However one should be decent enough to come outside and tell the people on line, rather than just turning off the outdoor lights. I T t was only after we got off line and asked that we were told the show was sold out.This was my first time coming to carolines, and with such horrible customer service. I doubt that I will ever return. I would recommend attending comix instead, I've been to that comedy club, and they treat customers alot better.
- Pros: location
- Cons: terrible service

Talent great, service terrible
by zelda_cannon at Citysearch
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

horrible staff
by km1982 at Citysearch
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
