I love this venue because you can always feel the bass in your soul ???????? but a con is, since it's more of an intimate venue , it can get pretty hot while you're turning up. Always have $ for parking !

Michelle Chan

Intimate venue w/ tiered levels for concertgoers of ALL heights! Plus ticket prices are super reasonable, especially if you buy straight from the box office . Listen to some GREAT live music here!! ????

Dan Parks

Love this place for small concerts - no food - expensive drinks - I get there early to get a seat upstairs... This is my usual view .

Michelle Chan

Intimate venue with tiered levels for concertgoers of all heights! Tickets are super reasonable, especially if you buy straight from the box office . Check out some great underground bands here!

nikki

great variety of programming, but increasing rapidly in popularity. shows will be harder to get tickets to, and there is a capacity for the pit. so arrive early and drake your claim!

Ray Seale

The best staff . Friendly and professional. And a great venue too. Just the perfect size. Sounds good too!

Darrick Lin

This music venue is a gem in heart of Santa Ana with two stages, a balcony , bars , food & fun-friendly atmosphere.

Glen Fujimoto

The Kills just finished playing tonight - awesome! Really enjoyed the venue - free parking , tiered viewing areas so more people have good views - will definitely visit again

Billy Amp

Small little spot to see a underrated show. Always a good spot to see your favorite artists up close!

John Torres

KRS-One a-ttacked! Best $5 concert ever! $10 parking in the rear and around the corner though. Cash only !

Thierry Langford

Awesome venue, reminds me of the House of Blues , Houston. :) Great crowd, Trampled by Turtles always puts on a good show!

Jose Torres

Awesome place. Came to see immortal technique twice plus Chino XL, Aesop Rock, Raekwon, Sick Jacken, etc.

Manda Currell

Great venue. Can see the stage from anywhere and it’s well ventilated. Parking is usually $10 across the street

Alex Mollazadeh

Bottle Service is the way to go. Great drinks and a great view of the stage. Thanks Tori and Ryan!

Pamela

They no longer serve food in the venue! They had the best BLT too! :( They now serve expensive ass burgers in the smoking patio . Be sure to eat dinner somewhere else before seeing a show here.

Allison Kasic

The tiers are great for concerts . Even short people like me can see the stage clearly!

Teresa G.

Always a good experience when we come here! The venue is definitely one of the best in orange county .

Aling Zhang

Go behind the curtains and upstairs. A much better view of the stage and you won't have to battle the crowds. There's a bar up there too

Savannah Rose

Galaxy is an all ages venue with a full bar and restaraunt. Buy tix at box office in cash for no extra fees (boycott ticketmaster!) make reservations if you want a table. Galaxytheatre.com for sched.

Manda Currell

They have the Beyond Meat burger in sliders ! Veggie heaven

Niku

Spacious venue, great sound

Amy Shrider

This is an amazing venue! Great price, better bands, and every seat is a wonderful one!

Joseph Lemble

Pay for your drink after it's poured. Just saw the bartender poor half foam and half beer and give the middle finger to the customer. Also, be ready to be blinded by the house lighting guy.

Raeanne Donato

One of my favorite venues and usually never disappointed but sound was off tonight.

Stephanie

Loving the newly added patio & restrooms located on the left of the stage

Juan Carlos Castaneda

Beware with parking especially if u park across the street, I work next to this place and they tow cars like crazy every time there is an event !

Diana G

Get there early to get the best seats and close to the stage.

Alyssa Fuentes

Love this venue, get here early free parking if the kit isn't full!

Steven Goins

Good venue but parking situation is absolutely horrible for bigger show. Get here early or you'll pay for it figuratively and literally.

ᴡ Mire

The second floor table service is a must!

El martin P

Tribal seeds fucking sucks their band members took over everybody else's set. They keyboard and guitarist came out as guest singers on the other opening bands but muffled the whole set. Narcissistic!!

Israel Zamora

Get there early, tables on the balcony , first come first serve

Peter Anargirou

Great venue with lots of room

Trent Shamaley

Super dirty venue... Fxx'n killer! Great vibe. Great people... Come for a SMOG event !!! Http://www.soundcloud.com/downlowd

Josh C.

It gets hot as balls in here if there's a big crowd, so be sure to wear light clothing .

Connie Chiu

Such a cool music venue .

Aldo Bustos

Try the music !

Angela T.

Rudy Romanos

Staff and security not very informative about late starts suggestion while waiting put people in patio and sell drinks make money before events

Marco Lopez

Saw Ilan bluestone here for cheap !! I love this place!!

Nechama Dina

Awesome small and intimate venue

Cesar Tapia

Good show.

dp_recess

Always a good spot for live music

matt meddock

Since you're already at a show and partying you need to get yourself a spirithood. <aclass="entity url"rel="nofollow" href="http://www.onetribeoc.com"target="_blank" data-sig="cDdiuy7J4yLkkQn7XvGQL9HYLJE=" onmousedown="fourSq.ui.OutgoingLink.mousedown($(this), event)" data-source="tip-text">www.onetribeoc.com</a>.
