What People Are Saying About The Shout! House

The Owner

The Shout! House

Owner

There are a lot of entertainment choices out there, but only one that has captured the basic desire of everyone to "be" the entertainment. Dueling Pianos are two piano players/singers performing at two, face to face grand pianos in front of two large mirrors performing the classic rock 'n roll hits from the 1950s to the present. It's request driven by the audience and with the use of multiple teams, goes non-stop all night. It's the great music hits of all time combined with great showmanship, energy and comedy. Watching the people, watch the people . . . It?s worth the price of admission…

In Short – The Shout House will never be mistaken for one of Gaslamp's hip and trendy establishments, but that doesn't preclude it from being one of the area's most charming and spirited. The wooden tables, chairs and railings provide a roadhouse feel, and the mix of college students, casual thirty-somethings and expense-account business travelers whoop it up accordingly, singing along to familiar songs performed by the two piano players seated across from each other onstage. – –

Most Outragous Bar in San Diego

by freefallingrgirl at Citysearch

I have lived in San Diego now for 5 years and I dont normally go downtown because its to expensive. But after going to the Shout House for my 21st birthday 3 years ago I wont go anywhere else. Just walking by this bar after the piano's start playing you can feel the energy and excitment radiating from the building. If you like music, being loud, and fun this is the place you need to go!!! The staff is always freindly and despite how busy it gets they are always there if you need a refill on your drink, the piano players are a trip and really make this place special, dont feel afraid to go up and talk to them. I highly recommend this place for people of all ages. I recommend this place to everyone who comes to San Diego!

  • Pros: a non stop good time
  • Cons: have to show up early to get a good table

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place...other guy doesn't know what he is talking about

by xoxoGIRL at Citysearch

So the guy who said he couldn't get in because he didn't have his passport, well duh! like anyone excepts a foreign DL to get in anywhere...hello this isn't europe BRING the correct ID and you'll get in. How can you write a review on a place if you never got inside. plus it sounds like he just wanted to bag on everyone that night. I have to say that everytime I go to the shout house the people are so nice and fun! I had a party there for my birthday and they gave me a gift bag and called me on stage and the manager came over to me and was like if there is anything you need let me know. This place is so fun way better than any bar downtown. it is totally interactive and fun and the bartenders poor strong drinks. If you want to do something super fun and different you should go here.

  • Pros: ambience, unlike anything downtown, super fun
  • Cons: none

Don't waste your time with these guys - San Diego has plenty of better alternatives

by bensny at Citysearch

I had the unfortunate experience last night of having organised to meet friends at this place, having flown in from Europe to celebrate my 30th birthday. My girlfriend and I didn't even get in the door because I didn't have my passport with me, despite having a European drivers license, residence card and various other forms of ID. We asked to see the manager but the security guy at the door claimed to *be* the manager so we phoned them hoping the real manager might be more sensible, but no - no passport, no entry. We tried the brewery next door but they had some lame excuse for closing the kitchen early so we ended up across the road at Hennessy's Irish Pub which wasn't bad.

In any case we got a quick look inside and it looked very ordinary. Even if I had my passport I would have reservations showing it to them, and I really don't think I'd bother because San Diego has plenty of better establishments.

Summary: Don't waste your time.

Update: It's interesting that my negative views are shared by another reviewer, and one of the two positive reviewers (reece422) reads like it's written my a PR rep for these guys and is over two years old.

  • Pros: None.
  • Cons: Extremely poor customer service.
