House Of Blues Atlantic City

I ordered the fried chicken and I took one bite and sent it back.  It seems like they used the same oil to fry fish & chicken.  Therefore my chicken had a fishy taste to it.

Luckily, my waiter was very nice and offered to take it back and remove it from my bill and offered me to order something else.

Overall experience was just- OK.  Will never go back to that location.

Review for breakfast only. Had the breakfast buffet and it was okay but nothing special. It reminded me of something between say a buffet chain and a good continental breakfast at a hotel. It had pancakes, eggs, bacon, home fries, omelet station, etc. The Belgian waffle station with strawberries was a highlight of the meal. Overall, everything was okay but nothing special. For $18 including coffee and orange juice you'd hope for a little more but it wasn't bad. Bring your casino card for a dollar or two off your meal.

Been here a few years ago to see a cover band. The place was 1/4 full and the bars empty ... easy to grab a 8$ beer and get back to pretending the band you were listening to was really The Foo Fighters. Overpriced beers but the place seemed ok.

Back again this time to see Shinedown and Bush. man,what a different experience. Started off great,We had decent view of the stage front and center(standing room) but once the sound kicked in ... Holy shit !! Loud as fuck. this is coming from a guy who blares Slayer and Metallica in his car on Max. The sound was so loud that when screaming i still couldn't hear my wife next to me lmao.
Maybe i just reached "that" age and I am starting to mellow out but i was somewhat concerned(still didn't leave my spot... by choice anyways) with possibly causing serious damage to my hearing. A mixture of being blown away by the speakers and constantly bothered by some drunk asshole giving hip checks to my wife pretty much forced us to move. Once we moved the concert just sucked... fought our way to the back,back part of the venue behind the sea of people and apparently behind any speakers... View,sound quality and the atmosphere as a whole is that much more terrible nearly 20 feet away from the stage. How can that Be ?? Its a small venue for God's sake. It sounded like I was listening to a couple of 6x9's out of my bro's honda.... Maybe i'm just too picky. too loud up front and not loud enough in the back.

Hob should invest in a makeover and audio upgrade. It needs it !
