   Ultimately had a great time, dope experience right there but was annoying having to wait so long to get served by the waiter. We found ourselves waiting forever to be able to order and our waiter just kept walking by us.

   Waited an hour to be seated even though I had reservations. One of the hostesses checking everyone in was a little rude. I requested indoor seating, but there wasn't any, so we had to sit outside and share a table with other guests. Our waitress took about 30 minutes to get to our table. I asked her if she could fill my water because I was worried about spilling it, and she just handed the water jug to me. I liked the venue overall, but it seems that they have some things to iron out when it comes to seating people and customer service. I didn't even try the food because of the service.

   This was my second visit, and I had made reservations (and paid) in advance for the comedy show to celebrate my birthday. We arrived on time, but when we were seated, we were surprised to find out we’d be sharing a table with a random party of four—something we were never informed about. It was uncomfortable for everyone, as the other party also wasn’t told they’d be sharing their table. Especially disappointing considering there were plenty of empty two-person tables available, and they did not accommodate. Unfortunately, the service was extremely poor. We waited 40 minutes just to receive our drinks and equipment, and we never even got the chance to order food. I understand this was Sessions’ first event, but it seemed they weren’t fully staffed or adequately prepared to handle the number of reservations they received. On a positive note, the comedians were fantastic—we had a great time laughing and thoroughly enjoyed all four performances!

   Was super stoked about this place since we are from out of town. I had a reservation at 6:45 for high top lounge seating booked days in advance for the comedy show. There was a about a 10 minute wait in line to be seated. Was also told to show up 45 minutes early just to wait in line. We were in Claire's section on the patio unable to hear the comedy show. Claire's service was -1/10. We were never checked up on and took forever to get anything. Saw multiple parties that left angry without getting their food. Great in theory, awful service.

    I only ordered a drink ar the bar. I was seated by the hostess, who signed & check me in. The only hang-up, was, when the Hostess ask me for my current purchased receipt from downstairs. I was shocked!! I told the hostess, I wasn't told or aware of this when I asked the Employees working downstairs, said I am allowed to go upstairs, as long as I had made Reservations in my name for the Date & Time, & How many is in your party? So, my belief is, someone has dropped the ball on the correct info to all Paying & Public Customers!!! Please advise & correct your small Mishap, regarding your Brand New Business!! Welcome to California!! Red or Blue!!!!! Who F........ CARES!!!
