Business Description from the Web

Though its Mississippi Delta by way of Disneyland approach to decorating may be a bit much to take, the celebrity owners of this chain of restaurants and live-music venues can certainly be proud of their concert calendar. It's a popular waystation on the tween-emo circuit, and classic rock revivalists and mainstream hip-hop heads will likely spend serious time here. They run a tight ship — if... more

Not just blues, but rock, jazz, and gospel too. This flagship of the successful chain, whose exterior has been done up like a raggedy tin shack, hosts performers ranging from reggae legend Lee "Scratch" Perry to emo-hipster James Blunt, and former Pixies frontman Frank Black to now-receding '70s hair bands like Styx. The venue itself has the usual L.A. division between hoi polloi (who stick to... more

Jake and Elwood would be proud of this restaurant with its voodoo art, busts of blues legends, and good ol' Southern inspired cooking. In fact, look for the Blues Brothers themselves to occasionally show up to mingle with their fans and sample items off their plates. Some signature menu items include Voodoo Shrimp, traditional Shrimp Po-Boy, Creole Jambalaya, and Rosemary Cornbread. The... more

Live gospel music and an expansive buffet make HOB's Sunday brunch one of L.A.'s best.

Parking

It's next to impossible to find street parking in West Hollywood after 6pm; the valet cost is steep but worth it.

The lot is free Monday to Saturday until 4pm, with $15 valet after that. Meters are impossible to find, and weekends, you won't find a cheaper lot.

Editorial Reviews from the web

Sophisticated down-home cooking in the world's most opulent shanty--a fabulous lesson in contradiction.

The Scene When Dan Aykroyd and Jim Belushi finance a shack on Sunset Strip, expect the extraordinary: Silhouettes of blues idols pop from ceiling tiles, folk art emblazons rickety walls, a fully stocked bar slides open to reveal a stage. It's a high-class ode to the Deep South, one that attracts world-famous crooners and all their Fred Segal-clad devotees. The... more

Sunset Strip shanty is a musical must with a renowned gospel brunch, unforgettable decor and live bands galore.

This famous shanty on the infamous Strip plays host to a broad musical spectrum, from pop stars to rappers to hardcore rock acts like Atreyu--despite its name, there's rarely genuine blues artists on the stage. That said, this is probably one of the best spots in town to garner a heaping helping of nostalgia as acts like KC and the Sunshine Band and Billy Idol perform for devotees. Sundays take... more

I am always excited to get "Two for Tuesday" concert tickets from HOB online because it means that I will be having the Voodoo Shrimp LOL

I enjoy the food at the restaurant at House of Blues but I only come here if I am attending a concert. The service is always very friendly and mindful of you getting out and downstairs on time for the event. Parking is a problem though my suggestion if you... more

Restuarant - Read other reviews that knocked the food as mediocre and over priced. We ordered Flat Iron Steak Salad $13.95, Creole Shrimp on a bed of catfish and rice $16.95, and the Rib Eye $25.95 All really good and those prices didn't seem that bad. Beers were $6. Not cheap, but I've seen worse.
Perhaps HOB read some of the reviews because two other critiques were stories about cameras... more
