The Scene – House of Blues opened its fourth restaurant-concert hall at the base of the famous "corn cob" buildings of Marina City in 1996. Host to a mix of blues, jazz, funk, rap and world musicians of varying notoriety, this spot is also a popular dining spot. HOB's upstairs music hall is decorated with Southern outsider art.

Best Concert Venue in Chicago
by Big Sky VIP at Citysearch
Owning a VIP Concierge service I go to almost every show and venue in Chicagoland. The House of Blues is by far the best venue we have sent clients and have personally gone to. From Jay Z to ZZ Top~Crystal Method to UFO every show has blown us away in this unique intimate setting. We now go for renting a Private Opera box for every show. ( these do sellout so act fast when you see a show coming) With waitress service to the opera box during show means you will not miss a beat! Have a truly amazing dinner experience in the Foundation Room dining room or go down to the back porch and have a Blues Burger ( My Fav). The only draw back is they will not let me move in!
- Pros: Unique Private Opera boxes
- Cons: I can't live there!
