Had such a good time that night. This place rocks and has a very cool back patio and smoke spot

We stopped by to see a band this last week. We were really impressed with the space. There was a lot of room for viewing the stage. There werent really any bad spots to stand. We sidled up to the stage and had a great time. The bar is located in a good spot and it was easy to get in for beers and other drinks. The sound in the room was consistent no matter where we stood and it wasnt too loud. We like the space because you could get personal with the band playing on the stage due to the stage set up. Great place to see a show.

Visited last Saturday for Maoli concert. So freaking awesome!! Not a bad spot anywhere in here to view and listen to the band. Great staff and bartenders. Nice outside area to smoke, talk story, or to get some air after dancing.

Fun event space! Very spacious and clean inside. Plenty of fresh air flowing through which is important for large groups watching live shows. Friendly staff and centrally located.

Great venue awesome lighting and nice bar.

Absolutely awesome venue. You really get up and personal with the band. The drinks are reasonably priced and the food is good it can be romantic and a good place for a date. Dont forget to check the back patio.

I shoot photographs here wry frequently. I love this place. Growing up I wondered what it always was about. So glad that I am now involved.

Super Sunday visit for Skips Music Weekend Warriors showcase finale series. Loved it - totally lifted my spirits - great stage, friendly room - staff and crowd alike.Would recommend and glady visit again.

Goodtimes! Small concert venue experience is hard to beat. We chose an 18 and over show so my daughter could enjoy the show as well.

Great intimate venue for live events! The restrooms are clean and that back patio is really nice!

Awesome place to catch a show. Cheap tickets and great out door patio

Love this place! Attend the Darling Clementines show once per month and really love the burlesque/variety show they have here at Harlows!! Great venue!!!

This is a seriously nice club. Small, engaging, right up on the stage. Friendly staff. Loved it.

Had so much fun at Shannon McCabes Marti Gras party!

This was my first visit to Harlows. Blues music every Wednesday 6:30 to 9:30. Full bar service and food available. Definitely going back.

Nice music venue where youre close to the band. The crowd is usually diverse and the dance floor is often bumpin. Good drinks and the bar has a great backdrop

Awesome live bands and great staff :) I enjoyed it for sure.

Harlows is one of the best, if not the best, small live music venue. May 9, 2019, featured Savoy Brown, the best British Blues band. Tommy Odetto opened for Savoy Brown and is a great guitarist in his own right.The menu has a nice variety. My favorite is the Jean Harlow burger. Nice selection of brews on draft. Full bar available! Check on the music at this great venue.

Great sound. Solid acts booked. Best venue in Sacramento hands down.

Exceptional venue. Staff regularly goes abive-and beyond, bartenders are pleasant and helpful, place is clean, great medium size, killer patio out back, even security is direct yet polite.

The bands (Acme Soundtracks and Achilles Wheel) were excellent. Good drinks and service.

One of my favorite places to go for a concert. Love the vibe and great customer service.

Attended a show in The Starlight room. Ordered several food items. Excellent!!

One the best MCs to rock the mic!! Scareface never disappoints! Best live performance with a ban thay Ive seen thus far

Nice location, nice establishment with rear exterior area, decent restrooms overall safe because security didnt frisk or check purses...As of Feb 2020 The reason for the lower score is the selector is popcorn flip flopy him change up the track too quickly even if you do that at least let the vibes run together...Dont know where him from but a wite Yankee man could do a better job...a random person coulda look on YouTube for Reggae, Dancehall, Afro-Beats and connect the phone it would have been better... and this was supposed to be a big Valentines Party...them jip me

Awesome atmosphere and the venue is very well arranged.

Great club. Sac peoples rock

Worked well with my food allergies, including gluten and dairy free!

Great place. My lady and I have seen curren$y here 4 times. Very Dope.

Hi, i had a chill night. Accessible and affordable. well, for a first timer )

Sacramentos premier music club. The booths are nice to retreat to.

You may pay for an expensive beer but you will have a great time. The staff and bookers always do a great job!

We went to see Mike Love. It was a great show and Harlows was a nice personal venue. Youre able to get up close to the stage which makes it feel communal. We had a wonderful time and will definitely try another show.

Great live music!

Great comedians. Food took quite a long time coming out and the orders were mixed up.

Love it. Music at arms length. Go and hear it.

We went with a group of friends to watch a band play. The seating was extremely limited and the show started about 2 hour later than advertised on the tickets. It was quite uncomfortable standing for that long to include the duration of the event. The band was good and the bartenders were nice servers, so that sort of made up for it.However, the security staff is unprofessional and unpleasant to deal with. After the event we wanted to stay and have a drink, so we waited in line to get into their nightclub which is through a different door. Once we gave the bouncer our ID he denied us entry because my husband was wearing Jordans and said no athletic wear was allowed. I pointed out the guy in front of us had Adidas tennis shoes and the bouncer said Adidas, Chucks or Vans were allowed.We didnt want to make a scene so went to sit on a bench a few feet away to call our Uber. Minutes later another guy with similar Jordans as my husband went up with a group of friends and was allowed entry. At that point I went over to confront them about the discrimination happening against us, because the bouncers were the same race as both individuals they let in with the athletic shoes and we were a different race. I asked to speak to a manager to explain what we had experienced with the discrimination and we were refused the opportunity to speak to the manager. I have more to share about this situation as well as a short video I was able to capture. I cant believe how they mistreated us and the lack of fairly enforcing the dress code standard across the board.

I was super full. There was fast and courteous service. Prices were fair for the quality of the food.

Great staff, friendly crowds, great bands and performances!!!

Such a sweet place to see an intimate venue

Always good people here ..awesome service and killer bands (esp.AgentOrange )*****

Good lounge that has great guests.

Great food, great show, good drinks.

Great staff and great food.

Irie nights is the best!

Not sure i want to go to this place after reading reviews. And to be fair theres lots of good reviews but also lots of bad reviews that alone makes me wonder and something tells me its not a great place to go to for a concert venue by just reading the bad reviews. If people want to go some where like this place and you pay for a ticket you should be able to get a seat regardless and also for people complaining about this issue and over priced drinks and getting kicked out hmmm i think ill pass and find another place to have a good time.All this being said im sure ownership doesnt care as long as people keep showing up to low class joints like this. I saw Heatless tribute band at Stockton county fair and theyrre awesome to bad they have to play at harlows so ill just have to wait to see them at another place hopefully it wont be like harlows.

Got there near five, it wasnt very busy. ill return with my relatives. it has an awesome atmosphere. food is similar to a place in san francisco i loved.

Great customer service!

Great food and good performances didnt get to have a drink but what I had for dinner was wonderful.

Grandauthers said it was awesome

Great bar service!

Great local live music venue. Not a bad view in the place. When in town to visit my mother, I always check out whats going on at Harlows. So far they are batting 1000. I saw Brown Out/Brown Sabbath. 99.9 percent of Sacramento missed out on one of the best shows I have seen ever as they rocked the crowd with Black Sabbath covers with a Latin twist. Average White Band was stellar, and The Iguanas were superb. Ticket prices and beer prices great value for the shows I have seen.

Big kicking back.

Everythings a little pricey to drink for entry fee

Great place to catch a show! Great music and crowd!

Great sound and I love the outside hangout in the back.

Great show, fast bartenders, love the backyard!

I had a nice time at Harlows for the DJ Quik concert. The staff was friendly .All except for a certain bouncer/security guard who was rudely grabbing and shoving people off stage who were invited to take pictures. Thats the reason for 4 out of 5 stars .Everything else was cool but, I dont appreciate being shoved .

Great atmosphere to dance

Best music venue in Sacramento. Many good bands coming through. Nice place.Docking a star because its seemingly impossible to buy advance tickets here to avoid the online fees. Even at a show, the box office people are nowhere to be found even if you ask.

Great little venue

DEANOHOLICS RAT PACK XMAS SHOW DEC 22

Pretty decent fare, nicely appointed, and the staff was both friendly and attentive. We went to see a live show and were seated on one totally comfortable couch. The seating chart for live shows is predominantly in the furnished booths that line the walls in a semi circular pattern facing the stage, providing great views free of the sardine can setups ​that have become the norm.

Arrived an hour early to see the James Hunter 6, apparently promoted by Swell Productions, only to find every seat either taken or reserved --80% of their available seats were reserved --and about 40 folks standing because there was nowhere to sit. After a drink we got tired of standing and took a chance and moved into some of the many still empty reserved/VIP seats. For the record, there was no mention of, or option to buy, anything but general admission tix when we bought them 2 months earlier, so we had every right, at the very least, to expect seating on a first come first served basis. Well, pretty quickly a man and woman arrived and demanded we vacate the seats immediately. When we asked how any music venue could sell 2 or 3 times as many tickets as seats, both insisted they hadnt done so. When I asked the man to take a look at the room, he did and then just smiled, shrugged, and said we still had to leave. And, we couldnt stay until the VIPs arrived. Some of the other evicted couples gave up and actually went and sat on the stage. We knew there was no way we were going to make it through 3 hours of standing or dancing --the opening act was still 30 minutes away --so we decided to try to get our money back. The guy at the door politely took my information, said he completely understood, and though he couldnt guarantee anything, he assured me hed call the next day. No call, and were out the cost of tix and handling fee. Harlows is a music venue, so how do they get away with not providing a seat for every ticket purchased in good faith? If they are just a dance club, say so. At the very least, they should be required to post no seat guaranteed when you purchase a ticket.Color us angry and 85 bucks poorer. My only consolation is that Harlows and Swell Productions should provide good fodder for my business ethics unit.

Place is nice, parking not the greatest, ordered some chips & salsa, didnt like, but only went 2 hear my daughter sing, great job.

Great place! Reasonable prices. Entertainment was great. Service was good.

Nice live music venue. Good location, friendly and helpful staff (door and bar). Intimate setting for live music, I will be back - had a great time.

Nice outside area. Upstairs and downstairs. 2 dance floors. 2 djs

Needs to learn to pay and respect their acts properly!

Decent venue. Cool to be so close to the performance. Sound could be better. Always have a good time there though. Nice outdoor lounge area

The musical acts here are typically great. The venue is intimate, and the staff is cool (once you get past the bouncer at the door)!

Good venue for concerts... love the outside area in the back... cozy and great atmosphere.

Great music, dance and quality time with friends

Good venue

Great place to see and hear live music. Sound is the best, (when the engineer knows what theyre doing).

This place was very run down looking I felt like I was at mens club. Stage was very small and the place is not designed to accommodate all styles of music. Security was kicking people out for smoking (which is understandable but kicking someone out? Little harsh) they kicked main artist out. Terrible terrible experience. Save your money for the ace of spades!

Fun place, small dance floor

Great place for live music. By the way, Will Kimbrough is coming here from Nashville on Feb. 24. Hes a great folk Americana musician, one of my personal favorites! Check him out!

It was my first time at Harlows and i really enjoyed myself.totally enjoyed the food and most of all loose ends.

Nice club with good acoustics and views of the onstage performers. I wouldnt go back just for the food, but its not bad for the price when youre watching a show there. The kitchen did have trouble getting our four-person tables orders right, but having worked in restaurants myself, Ill give them the benefit of the doubt. Anyone can have a bad night, and the waitress mentioned they didnt have a head chef that evening. I looked up the owner/manager? online and he has a long history in the entertainment and club business here in Sacramento, and seems to know what hes doing and knows a lot of local talent. Looking forward to going back soon.

Nice looking place with lots of seating. Great cocktails and fantastic acoustics. Best small venue in Sacramento.

Great easy menu and very affordable. The best hamburger you can eat for $6.

My go to spot for good music in Sacramento. Its the last place standing since my Sac State days and its still going strong, Great music, Momo is great for DJ, cool decor, nice stage and room for listening to live music and good drinks. What more could you want? Reasonable cover too.

Drinks, service, acoustics are all great, but Harlows needs to get away from Ticketfly for selling tickets online. They are too expensive and there are better, more affordable ticketing services out there that deserve this local businesss attention.

Great space with a wonderful outdoor seating area. Acoustics could be better but theres really nothing like seeing a show with the band basically on the dance floor.

So much potential but the sound was painfully bad. I was glad to see some Bay Area jam bands start coming to this venue, but both bands Ive seen sounded terrible here. The sound mix is all wrong - couldnt hear the guitars because there was so much bass. Most of the people in my group had to wear ear plugs. I hate wearing ear plugs but couldnt stand the noise level without them. What a shame, because otherwise the venue is great - funky decor, comfortable outdoor courtyard, good drinks, and clean bathrooms!

Love this place! The outdoor chill area is my favorite! Always friendly staff.

The waitress was great! Great attitude, very attentive! Wish all servers were like her.

If you like a small venue with fabulous sound and great service. Youll love it.In fact on my way now with my daughter to see Crystal Bowersox, again.

First time but definitely not the last! Loved the show, the crowd and had a great time

Great Venue all around. Great Staff. I always feel welcome and comfortable when I shoot at Harlows!

I saw Bilal at this club. Great sound system and nice interior. There wasnt enough seats.

Got there when place opened an hour before the band was set to play. They didnt have all the chairs out and when we asked we were rejected chairs but they brought chairs out for others. Had to stand the entire show. Not sure why the discrimination but wont be going back ever.

Actually this MOMA... upstairs Harlows Wednesday Bourbon and Blues. They also serve dinner, wine, beer and non-alcoholic drinks.

Went here for the ghostmane concert and the venue was very well layed out and controlled for the type of concert it was

Horrible service, bouncer and owner went out of their way to kick several people out and not refund their tickets. Bouncer said he saw my girlfriend taking a drink of something before she tried to go inside so she couldnt go into the show, I tried asking why and the owner came outside saying we were drinking in public and its illegal, I asked if he was a cop and he dismissed me completely and wouldnt let me in either, when I wasnt even drinking. People drink alcohol at concerts, Ive been to dozens and never been kicked out for something so trivial. Dont go to harlows expecting a fun show or youll probably be tossed out

Love this club. Great entertainment. But drinks can be pricey--$10 for a white russian.

Great place to see music! Loved the atmoshphere and the people! It was my first time but not my last!

Its a nice spot definitely better than Spotify.
