This was a really nice venue to see a solo acoustic show. I was able to get cabaret seats with a table. Each table came with two seats and there were two rows of tables. The opener started right on time and Bob Schneider came on after about an hour of opener. The bar was a nice detailed list of drinks and it was card only. Walking in you just got metal detector rod while holding up your phone and keys which made it very easy. It was easy to find parking and I used a lot just two blocks away.

Beautiful brand new (opened in 2024) concert hall, nicely designed and built in between old Milwaukee cream city buildings on the Farewell just north of Brady Street. A dozen of the small tables for 4, the rest are general standing space for the total of 450 people, perfect for the jazz bands. Very useful bar right on the floor and nice spacious clean bathrooms. Great addition to Milwaukee!

It's a unique venue with skylights over the crowd and with faux greenery covering the ceiling supports. It gives it a cozy feeling when paired with the relatively small size. The bathroom was acceptable.

Cool 450 ish capacity club for live music. We thought the sound was decent, and the bar had great beer and cocktail options. Venue was easy to get around inside the room. Parking can be a challenge around the neighborhood streets, but there are some nearby metered spots.

I have been to this location a few times. But it took me seeing a band I absolutely love for it to show it's truest glory. Omg I saw voila there a few nights ago. It was amazing let's start with the basics sound. I could hear the everything. I could hear every artist crystal clear. Im not going to say names but some places nothing but nasty reverb, distortions and too loud.u reach for the earplugs in a hurry. The lights and special effects, just on point. Location in a word perfection 1 1/2 blocks off of Brady directly across from pizza shuttle. Parking is limited but bike or public transportation is down the block. Lastly staff. Awesome.
