What People Are Saying About The Roxy Theatre

Featured Review

In Short – The club itself has the potential to be intimate, but the acts that play this legendary spot in Hollywood are far too wild to keep things quiet--especially not with one of the best sound systems on the Sunset Strip. Floor-level and raised standing area (with some occasional seats), a spacious dance floor/mosh pit, and a bar loaded for beer all add up to an authentic Hollywood experience. Eclectic to the max.

Editor's Tips

Fun Fact:
Since its 1973 opener featuring Neil Young, the Roxy's stage has welcomed everyone from Miles Davis and Bruce Springsteen to Guns N' Roses , Jane's Addiction and Pearl Jam.
ambiance
100.0% positive
  1. wonderful stage - where sound is mixed very well, 85% of the time (more than other Strip venues can boast these days) - and a great atmosphere to see your favorite band.
drinks
25.0% positive
  1. but you really can't beat a place without a bad siteline in the room and drinks that are cheaper than most clubs or bars in Hollywood that are definitely not watered down.
  2. drinks were cold.
  3. You either buy some really expensive drink or stand.
  4. Good drink, good music, good vibe, THE ROXY HAS GOT IT ALL AND MORE.

The Best club in L.A.

by Astra90120

This is my favorite place to watch a band in the Old Sunset Strip style. One of the few clubs that has launched everyone's career.

They Keep Bringing the Goods

by Kika Davis 2

As with the Key Club, I use to frequent the Roxy either weekly, or at least monthly, when I was in high school and obscenely obsessed with a few local rock bands (so dreamy). However, unlike the Key Club, I keep coming back to the Roxy for their consistently solid line ups and extremely friendly venue staff. In addition, On The Rox (their upstairs bar and tiny stage area) is a great place to get away from the craziness downstairs and to just chill with your friends and enjoy a drink. Can't wait for the summer concerts to start!

Rude staff

Contributor

I was appaulled by how rude the staff was my girlfriend went outside for a smoke and they would not let her back in. The door woman said she was too drunk. I myself was sober and can tell if she is drunk or not,and trust me she wasnt. I just felt it was wrong to leave her on the street and not contact me or any of her other friends upstairs after paying an entry fee. Neither me or any of my friends will return to this venue no matter who is playing. Bad business.

Good Spot

by HowardE

I liked it as a change. The place was crowded but the music was good and the beer was cold. Saw a few people I knew there checking out the place. Check it out.
