- The Extras:
- Parmesan-garlic fries at the Baskets Grill are the favorite fare, while health-conscious types can head to Clutch City Pizza for a chef salad.
Overprices, not comfortable, cramped seating, horrible sound
by Gotnoname
For rock concerts, this is not the place. The acoustics are not thoroughly researched to make the sound differentiate from static noise or music.
The old Summit was far superior in leg room for the seats and sound quality. The Cynthia Woods is even a better venue for rock concerts. This place is not for Rock concerts.
The drink prices are more then the cost at a Texans game.
The food, is pricey too.
Center of Houston's Entertainment Universe

I've been here for Le Cirque, the Rockets, motivational business conventions, and concerts.
If you are going to splurge, the Club House level seats are my favorites, and the Lexus Room is sort of an antisocial area.
As a concert venue it is questionable
by steveraschilla
Eric Clapton was great, great choice of songs, great band and everyone played/sang with energy and precision. Sat is section 113, sound quality was terrible, worst in Houston since the Stones opened Reliant. There is no excues for poor sound quality. Toyota Center may be great for sports events but don't go for a concert unless your can sit close enough to hear directly from the monitors on stage. Clapton's folks working the sound boards made improvements after the first 4-5 songs but overall, sound was worse than Rockets old summit home.
- Pros: Easy access
- Cons: Could have parked right across the street for $5 less...don't pre-buy parking with your tickets. Service charges for concert tickets very high.
