Came here to see DJO in concert and the experience was amazing! We got to buy merchandise before the concert started so it made it a lot easier leaving. The venue was really clean and spacious, it never felt overwhelming to be in the pit. The staff were all really friendly and professional. I'd definitely come back here!

My first concert ever. Tennis. Still my favorite concert to this day. I remember the line moving smoothly and it being organized. The venue was simple and clean, and I will definitely be back I watched Djo perform here as well. One of my favorite performances

Great venue. Saw Crane Wives there last night. Sounds and lighting were on point all night. Christina Baines opened and was also terrific. Staff was friendly and worked well with everyone. Several good spots to get above the crowd a little bit to have a view from the back.

If you like industrial spaces, bare bones comforts, and since of the best music in the world, then you're in luck! The sound is always really great and the acts are also fun. The drinks are about as pricey as anywhere for live shows. And there's a balcony of your unafraid of heights. You should go.

Saw OK Go at Brooklyn Steel and had an amazing time. The industrial space is perfect for live shows—great sound, killer lights, and a confetti-filled finale that lit up the crowd. The two-level layout gives solid views throughout. Entry was smooth and staff were friendly. Only downside: 1. drinks are outrageously priced—$6.50 for water. 2. The warmup band performance takes 1 hour and really not that great.
