House of Blues

Frommer's Review

Whatever your feelings about corporate music entities, there's no denying House of Blues knows how to do things right. A visual feast of amazing outsider art fills this multiroom venue. There's a restaurant serving Southern-inspired cuisine (and the Sun gospel brunch is a definite hoot -- though be prepared to praise Jesus), a swag store, a bar, and an 1,100-person capacity concert space. HOB's booking power brings in an eclectic range of music, from world beat to punk (and yes, blues, too). A fair number of these are acts that might not have played in San Diego, if not for HOB. VIP dinner packages are available; and the restaurant is open for lunch.
