Really liked Tina Kim but thought the show was too short compared to
other venues, i.e., Laugh Factory, Comedy Store. The show started
a few minutes after 6pm but over by 7;30pm. Only two comedians (plus the emcee) went before Tina Kim. The venue enforces the two drink minumum, they'll have you purchase the drinks before the show, so if you're drinking alcohol, beware!

She was good, but too short. The rest sucked. the worst was the one right after Tina, had a guitar, we walked out. Overall, she was the only one worth for the night.

Tina Kim was very funny. I enjoyed her performance very much. The Mexican that ended the show was absolutely terrible, as was the MC and the first couple of acts. The black guy just before Tina was better than average.

One of the opening acts was Chris "Kid" Reid, whose combination of stand-up, rap, and poetry was thoroughly enjoyable.
It took some time for Tine to set up her materials, but once she got going she was great. Jokes were funny, materials were insightful, and delivery was perfect. But she seemed a little bit disoriented/confused toward the end of the show, searching for the next idea and stumbling over words. Was the show a little too long for her? Or maybe her topics (sex, race, sex, race, sex, race) started getting old by the end?
Easy atmosphere. Waitresses were a little too pushy, but that's understandable, given some unruly people in the audience.

She's pleasant funny and cute!! She needs to add some new material, though. The Q & A was informative when the questions were answered with her making jokes, otherwise I don't care about her family unless she has something funny to say about them. I'd go and see her again, but after she's added some new stuff.

Hilarious show. Even the MC was funny. Tina was great and I was pleased to see the introduction of substantial new material since I have been to a few of her shows in the past. Her shows are pretty short.. count on two hours or so typically, but that's the way I like 'em personally. Ha-ha I guess I have a short attention span. The show was great. If you haven't seen her before (or even if you have) ... highly recommended.

Tina's set was pretty good until she ended with a Q&A session where the audience asked boring questions like 'do you have siblings' and 'do you have nieces and nephews.' Seriously!! The momentum was totally gone by the end and the show dragged because of it. It would have been way better had Tina ended the show when her actual standup routine ended. The drinks were overpriced but the seats were good and the opening act was funny.

the emcee from the ice house was very very green...but the two warmup acts before tina were funny. the male comedian was throwing around an offensive gay term which turned me off. my friend and i really liked the female warmup comic though. tina herself was very engaging and comfortable. she seemed a little thrown off by how much time she had left towards the end but all in all...good jokes. my favorite was her craigslist underwear story...great arc...and her joke about getting an oil change for her car.

Tina was very good but the one guy before her, Dean, was fantastic! I would recommend Tina's show to anyone.

Great event, but two drink minimum was a bummer. Great performances by her opening act and herself.

All the comedians were good. I loved Tina she was totally outrageous. She's not afraid to make fun of herself. She's my kind of person. This is the first time I had seen Tina and my first time to the Ice House. The next time I can catch her act I will be there.
