Ate before a concert & received EXCELLENT service. Armando was amazing!! The food was delicious!! I have never had an unsatisfactory visit here. Will be back next week to eat & see Christina Perri!
Social News NetworkDecember 3, 2013This is a great place to go to a concert. Take a date and stroll he streets of downtown Dallas after the show. It's romantic but not cheesy. The concerts put on are awesome and always entertaining.
Viviana AlersNovember 16, 2011If you want to get a great spot during a concert. Skip the bar. It doesn't matter how early you line up. If you hit the bar as soon as they let you in, you won't get a good spot for the show.
Located in the White Swan Building in Victory Park, this temple of sound has room enough for 1,625 patrons in the main room and an exclusive roped-off VIP area. Read more
For some reason during some shows you can stand by stage or sit up in the balcony & in other shows you have to buy tickets to sit up there! They may sell those spots if standing room is sold out! B/S!- Lamar St. has a parking garage- close to AAA. Buzzbrews + Medina across the street, for pre-show noms, are clutch. Remember your ID+ to remove your phone from your pocket, for security. Enjoy! 🤘🏻
Jessie RayosJanuary 3, 2013I enjoy getting a seat somewhere on the balcony. You are able to sit down between shows, the view is just as good and you dont have to be up close to 10 different people all at the same time.
The Juicy Lucy Burger is a must try on the new menu created by Celebrity Chef Aaron Sanchez! There's cheese inside the patty rather than on top resulting in a molten core of cheese!
Tony MichaelOctober 11, 2012If you have tickets to an event, ALWAYS ask the box office if there are any better seats available. Even if you already bought your tickets you may be able to upgrade for a small fee or by being nice!
Angela SkeesApril 9, 2016Love this venue. Since I'm over 30 I hate standing for concerts. They have a standing lower level and seated upper. Bars everywhere. No where to park around it though.- Social News NetworkDecember 4, 2013A historic Dallas venue. Some of the greatest artists pass through here, and it's located in the hub of Dallas nightlife. Always a great time.
The Most Interesting Man in the WorldFebruary 4, 2014I used to believe one needed to have lived an incredibly hard life to be able to sing the blues. The cheerful falsetto of His Royal Highness, Prince Trantomere, taught me otherwise.
Mike OhanyereSeptember 8, 2017The music, scenery was fun. Came on a night they were hosting Grits & Biscuits and it didn't disappoint
- Transitions® lensesApril 6, 2012Housed in the White Swan building, this unique structure celebrates history of the blues, complete w the "Crazy Quilt" & a metal box of mud under the stage. Great place to see a show! #seemoresights
- Donovan MarlarFebruary 23, 2016I had an event there and I was surprised that they were so big. They had a few stages one outside and one inside that I saw. The food was great and the beer was cold.
Aesha InSavannahJune 22, 2015The grilled chicken and mashed potatoes with veggies is a great meal. The key lime pie is awesome!
One of the best small scale music venues in the area, easy to view the stage from any spot.- Every Tuesday at 9P we're having ROCKSTAR KARAOKE! Make sure you stop by and sing your heart out to your all time favorite songs. Karaoke sponsored by The Time Machine Band.
Ray LopesOctober 9, 2016I was here for the first time for Band Of Horses and Wild Feathers. This venue exceeded my expectations!
Rahul JoshiApril 14, 2020House of Blues Dallas at 9 minutes drive to the south of Dallas dentist Fitz Dental
Brandy GallienMay 6, 2016The waitstaff in the Foundation Room were excellent and very attentive. I love listening to Iive music.
Sony Mobile WTAAugust 1, 2011Some good bands play daily in the intimate atmosphere of the House of Blues. Maybe you'll spot the next superstar here!
Phillip NguyenSeptember 11, 2014If you're going here for a concert, make sure to make dinner reservation and you can bypass the crowd waiting in line- Sara WellsMay 18, 2015If you need a locksmith I recommend Dallas Locksmith 24/7 located at 2222 N Beckley Ave, Dallas, TX 75208 call them (214) 301-0958 Read more
Chris BeardSeptember 8, 2012Live nation and ticketmaster have finally joined together, like Germany and Mussolini in WWII.- Come on over to the company store and check out our awesome Blues Brothers Merchandise. While you're there you can get 10% off of a Skull Fedora.
- BravoNovember 29, 2010Great artists always in town. Great gospel brunch on Sunday but valet is pricey. If visiting take dart or shuttle bus. -Tiffany Derry, Top Chef
ShannonJanuary 29, 2014Great service & food! Grab some grub & drinks before a show & get to the front of the line!- While visiting make sure you take a stroll around and enjoy all the Folk Art. It's the biggest collection in the country!
José SuasteMay 1, 2014If you go to the bar inside before the show and slip through the gift shop you can avoid long lines outside.
Vivienne VermuthFebruary 5, 2012Park near west end pub. Well lit, guarded lot for 5 bucks and its only three blocks away. Also drinks at that pub are super cheap. Don't buy hob hooch. Super $$$.
Noah BilitySeptember 30, 2015Foundation Room is the way to go. Excellent service. Great way to get secluded.- If you spend $20 before the show in Crossroads or our Retail Store you'll be eligible to Pass The Line and beat the crowd!
Patrice BApril 24, 2014Eat at the restaurant and order lobster Mac and cheese. Most delicious thing EVER
So turns out you can get in with the early entry crowd if you show your receipt from the bar upstairs.
NoahJuly 9, 2016Where else are you going to catch the best live acts? It's a surprisingly good corporate venue.
Kristin BentonJuly 1, 2015Cool intimate venue, but get there early if you're short!! It sucks to stand behind a tall person...
Emuse UtwoSeptember 11, 2017De ja-vu..tried waiting tables there but the head waitress was so high, training for a 19 yr old back in the day, to make a go of it!
- Leticia CisnerosApril 7, 2013I unlocked a newbie special and got a free mug. Super laid back and chill, I'm definitely coming back!
As much as I want to dislike this place, theres far to much going on. Small and large venue rooms, murder mystery dinners, restaurant, club, great patios. Foods not amazing, but the ambience is nice.- VH1July 22, 2010House of Blues Dallas displays the "Crazy Quilt" and keeps a metal box of mud from the Delta Mississippi underneath its stage. – Team Live Nation

"Lawn is navigable with a small group, but you'll still want to get there pretty early. Also bring cash for the beer hawkers, don't want to miss any tunes."
