House of Blues - Orlando

House of Blues, Orlando, is a place where you can see top quality entertainment and enjoy a good meal.  Good name acts like Tesla, Cinderella, and Guns and Roses, have played on stage recently.  The inside is like an old time saloon, lots of wood, stairs, 2 bars, and a mezzanine with benches for those who don't want to stand at stage side (like me). I believe it only holds about 1500 people and tickets are general admission.  The good part is the tickets are reasonable (usually $45-$90/each), but if you don't like standing with the rest of the herd it may not be for you.  I prefer seating but I'll stand in a mob to see the artists from 10 feet away.

If you aren't somebody who likes concerts but enjoy good food try Cross Roads at  House of Blues, an award winning restaurant championed by world-class chef Aaron Sanchez.  He perfected dishes like Voodoo Shrimp and Jambalaya.

They also create a New York Strip steak and they have great burgers.  So, visit the House of Blues for whatever reason.  They are located at the west end of Downtown Disney right across from Cirque de Soleil. If you're not sure when you get there, look for the Big Top and the Water Tower.  You'll be glad you did.  Thanks again for reading.
