Eddie Brill (Boca Black Box- Boca Raton)
This story first ran on September 25, 2015. I just noticed that goldstar.com has $20 tickets for 5 bucks. Trust Jeff Eats on this, Brill is absolutely hilarious. Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats got plans to catch tomorrow night’s show.
* Eddie Brill.
Got something real good for you guys…that is, if you’re into laughing your ass off!
His name may not exactly be a household name, but in the “business” comedian Eddie Brill is known as one of the funniest clean-comedians currently working the comedy club/casino circuit.
Trust Jeff Eats on this one, Eddie Brill will absolutely crack-you-up! Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have seen him a a couple of times-and the guy really gets the job done!
Brill is set to play the Boca Black Box (8221 Glades Road, Boca Raton, (561) 483.9036 on Friday Night 10/2/15, Saturday Night 10/3/15 and Sunday Night 10/4/15 at 8pm.
For you guys not familiar with the Boca Black Box, it’s a 2-month old “live theater” which seats something like 250…its got a wine/beer bar, great sound/light systems and having been there a couple of times I can tell you- every seat in the house is good! You buy a “seat”- there are no minimum drink/food purchase requirements.
You can catch tickets and more info at bocablackbox.com.

Jeff,
Saw Steve Marshall at Boca Black Box and he was very funny. Great new venue for shows.
Of the last 10 posts, only 2 were about food. The other 8 were about acts/shows and several were about the Boca Black Box, which it almost seems that Jeff must be a part owner the way he is constantly shilling for them. How can you call JeffEats a food blog with this lack of food coverage?
Shilling?
Are you dumb or what?
Jeff is just telling us about a great new venue where we can see great shows.
As for food reviews he has more than any other blog.
I’ll stick with a guy who worked with the Ramones as to knowing about great music and where to see it.
Past 6 days 7 food stories. Get lost.
After reading Jeff Eats’ story about recent comedian Steve Marshall I followed up on Jeff’s advise and got 2 free tickets. Saw a great show and if Jeff hadn’t given readers the tip I wouldn’t have gone.
Jeff’s terrific stories on the upcoming Blood Sweat & Tears concert got me to the ticket counter way a head of most. Row 1.
The mix of food and entertainment reviews and stories is amazing.
Anybody can just tell you about what they ate in a restaurant and to be perfectly honest with you it’s totally a subjective call anyway.
Shill no shill whatever. I got 2 tickets to tonight’s Brill show through
gold star.com for 5 bucks a piece because Jeff gave readers the info. I also got 2 tickets to BST at The Amp at 1/2 price because Jeff had the info here.
If he’s a shill, then he must also be shilling for every arena, club, festival in Florida because he runs articles about loads of them.
If you also read, he has more food reviews per week than any othe site in South Florida.
This is the best blog going.
Simon:
Think of Jeff Eats as a food-entertainment blog and you’ll be on the right page.
Steady readers know that my mantra has from the beginning been “You want to eat in restaurants not own them.” With that in mind, Jeff Eats only interest in Boca Black Box is for my readers to know about great shows and possible discount tickets.
Thanks for reading…
I won tickets to see Blue Oyster Cult. After show I ate with Jeff Eats at Burger & Suds. Best food & entertainment blog going.
Simon,,
Jeff has more restaurant coverage than any one else.
I challenge you to find another s fl food blog that has more food writeups than Jeffeats.com. I will also tell you that Jeffeats.com usually has more restaurant reviews than the Sun Sentinel has per week.
Take a look at Jeff’s About Me. I think you will find that Jeff Eats from day one was meant to be much more than a food blog.
Sun Sentinel food critic had 2 stories, Jeff had 7.
Don’t miss Eddie Brill he’s a brilliant clean comedian.
I saw him last year and he had people laughing all night.
Jeff,
We saw Brill last night and he was very funny and engaging.
The theater was a nice change from the standard comedy clubs with their minimums and drinks.
I saw Brill last Saturday.
I thought he was just okay. Really not all that funny.
Too many personal stories that weren’t very funny.
Sorry!
