Goodnight's Comedy Club
THE COMEDY CLUB

comedy talent in the country from star to rising star performs each week
at Charlie Goodnight's. Such notables as Jerry Seinfeld, Jay Leno, Chris
Rock, Dennis Miller, Drew Carey, Ray Romano, Kevin James, Ellen
Degeneres and even Robin Williams have graced the Goodnight's Stage.
TWO RESTAURANTS TO CHOOSE FROM
OLD BAR (menu)
On the Basement level we have our world-famous OLD BAR restaurant and
Bar. Originally opened as a Mexican restaurant in the late 70's (even
before the comedy club opened) and becoming a Raleigh landmark both for
the food and as Raleigh's first downtown bar, a legendary late
night party place! Great Rock & Roll music, large flat panel TV's,
great food, great drinks and the best bartenders in town - all served up
in an industrial-looking sub-terrain restaurant (The place was built 100
years ago as an Ice Cream Factory - brick walls abound, huge cement and
steel columns, two 2 ton generators and industrial piping all decorate
the basement, along with hundreds of items for sale in our "garage sale"
- EVERYTHING IS FOR SALE IN THE OLD BAR, even the table you are eating
at.
Menu items include our Signature Fried Gouda, cheese fries, black bean
sirloin chili, great 1/2 pound burgers, ribs, flat-iron steak, and
fajitas (which we serve up on Wednesday nights for our famous
FAJITA-MARGARITA NIGHT every Wednesday - $10 Fajitas/ $10 PITCHERS
of Margaritas and when you buy dinner on Wednesday, you get a free
ticket to the show - our open mic featuring local pros, amateurs and a
first-timer or two. It's a great way to get over the mid-week blues).
Save room for homemade ice cream, one of our huge desserts or our famous
Tex-Mex Bananas Foster!
After the show or just for a late night party - dance(either on the
dance floor or on the bar - thousands have!), drink and have a great
time with our bartenders in the OLD BAR.
THE GRILLE AT GOODNIGHT'S (menu)
Our up-scale restaurant, famous for fresh fish, steaks, lamb and veal,
duck and more, all grilled on an open mesquite wood flame. In addition,
we hand-roll fresh pasta for several Italian entrees and have great
fresh seafood as well. Our Chef, Richard Meckley (himself famous since
1985) also creates some wonderful special additions to each evening's
menu.
Our wine list has selections to suit everyone's taste and budget and we
have a wonderful champagne list as well. From reasonably priced options
to fine vintages, we have a selection to meet your needs. Champagne
includes Chandon, Etoille, Veuve Clicqout and Dom Perignon - just to
name a few. For dessert, we have housemade specialties that vary
seasonally and you can enjoy a cappuccino and espresso with your
dessert. Specialty martini and bourbon menus, round out your Grille
experience to make it a great experience.
The Grille restaurant is on the second floor of the building. Since we
are located in a 100 year old building, the Grille is only accessible by
a staircase. We are happy to serve dinner to special needs customers in
the comedy club, which is on the street level. Please alert your box
office representative of any special needs cases, and they will make
alternate arrangements for your dinner reservation.
Entree prices range from $15 to $29.50
