The Canyon - Agoura Hills

Great venue with great sound system and ok food. All seats have good location but seating is communal and very tight.

I booked Jon B here on a whim for a birthday getaway without reading all the reviews. Once I read the reviews, I was actually worried the weekend would be somewhat ruined by a bad experience but here’s the bad with the good. Bad: Buying your food before you’re seated. Luckily, I saw the food reviews so we had heavy appetizers at Basta in the same area. I’d describe the food (based on other reviews we had the lasagna and the chicken) like if you went to a wedding at a small town Midwest venue. Or like a Holiday Inn Express. Edible, but not for $30. The service was lacking but everyone is struggling for help right now so I didn’t think too much of it. Sitting packed in tables was not enjoyable except we didn’t have anyone behind us. Get a round table if you can. Drinks were insanely expensive to me as well.

The good was the intimate size of the venue. Not too big, not too small. Acoustics were great. People dancing, everyone enjoying the amazing show Jon B put on. Also the front door folks were hilarious and helped my friend and I capture a great photo together.

Great place to watch a concert. Good food and service. Plenty of parking and right off the freeway.
