Wife and I have been twice and had a blast. We saw Randy Feltface a few months back and Adam Cayton-Holland on Valentines Day. Comedy was great. Service was amazing. Food was good too. Everyone was just delightful. Front door guy is my fave. He rocks. I recommend you go to helium and just enjoy yourself. The world sucks but helium helps take the edge off.

I wanna say I would give the Helium 5 stars if the food was good. to be fair you don't go to fish place and expect a killer steak. the drinks were good, David Lucas killed and the openers were hilarious. can't wait to come back for Hans Kim!

The talent was fabulous. I wish there were maybe some dessert options on the menu and maybe something a little less fried, like a sandwich or maybe some soup or even a burger or pizza. The pretzel bites were my favorite, super delicious. I was really disappointed by the bathroom, had a very dirty-bar vibe. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The show was great, so are the venue and staff. However, the 2-drink-per-person policy is ridiculous because it it too strictly enforced. In our case, we ordered drinks at the bar before going to our table. We immediately went to our table (with the aforementioned drinks still full) where the waitress told us that drinks ordered at the bar do not count as part of our total numbers of drinks. I get why there's a minimum required, but it shouldn't be enforced this way.

Jeff Allen was SO enjoyable. Top quality and proof that clean comedy is possible! Loved the intimate setting at Helium where all tables are good seats. We were pleasantly surprised at the quality food, drinks, and service during the show. We will be back for other dry bar shows.

Great act, neat venue, and they have awesome staff that were nice & attentive. However the 2 item minimum per PERSON was a huge bummer since the menu was fairly expensive and there was no note of this on the purchased ticket. This seems shady since everyone is on a budget these days. $9 beers and $10 mid appetizers are not worth it. Cherry Limeade cocktail was really amazing though, even for $12.We also were squished into a small table with another party which was a bit awkward but they were sold out. Unfortunately will not be back unless there’s a comic I really want to see :(

My husband asked an employee if we could go to the box office and upgrade our tickets to a seat with a better view (there were many open seats available). The employee said that if he just gave him cash personally that he would sneak us into better seats. He asked my husband how much cash he had on him, even suggested a personal Venmo or cash app transaction of $40 to make the “deal”. Maybe it was all on the up and up? It just felt VERY shady and like the employees have an under the table side scheme of some sort going on, making extra cash by moving people to better seats.Our server forgot about our order of pretzel bites. We ended up getting them just as the show was ending.There was a long line and wait to get into the showroom (understandably). People that were getting drinks at the bar were grabbing their drinks and then cutting straight to the front of the showroom line, that was very frustrating to those who’d been waiting patiently in line. Maybe you could have servers taking drink orders from the line so that everyone stays in line in the order they got there?The comedians were good. We did enjoy that part.

First time at any Helium club (it’s a small chain) and first time watching a show in Portland. Similar to many other venues on the West Coast. Online payment, security check, get tickets, two item minimum (got fries and a beer), two warm up acts, then the main person.. in this case we watched Andrea Jin.Before and during the show, servers come ask if you want anything then have last call about 30 mins before the show ends, for some this can be distracting, but others, it can be convenient. Staff were super friendly and quick. And after the show there’s a little area to meet the comic if they want to talk. If not, you just walk down the stairs to exit.It’s right off Hawthorn about a block away from Hawthorne Asylum Food Cart/pods, and two blocks from Cartopia. Also a brewery a block up. Plenty of parking when we went on a Weds night. So with drinks and food readily available before or after the show (with taking account of the 2 item minimum) you should be golden.
