I initially just went for a jazz show without knowing they had a full menu as well. The drinks were superb, and honestly the pasta was some of the best I’ve had in town. It’s a bit of a rare occurrence for me to eat out and not think that I could do better and I was shockingly impressed with how scrumptious it was. Maybe I was just hungry, but I’m positive their chefs are doing some magic. Super reasonably priced too. Fair price for fair portion. Plus, you’re a max of 15 feet from the stage! Go see some jazz!!

It is a great place to enjoy live jazz music. Snacks and drinks are also nice.

This is one awesome little jazz club. It's tucked into a small corner off Mississippi and Shaver. Listened to a wonderful quartet (sorry, forgot the name) but they were awesome! Food was pretty good.Place is small and quickly gets crowded so go early to get a good seat. Chances are you'll probably be sharing a table with others as seating is limited.You 'have' to download an app to order food and drinks. It is a pain in the butt to use! ?

We had wanted to go here for a while and we're glad to finally get the chance. We saw our friend Jack Radsliff leading a jam session. This is a great little jazz club with good music, good food, and great beer on tap. It is also family friendly. We ate with our grandchildren on the patio and listened to the music inside. We all loved it and will go back again when we get the chance.

Really love the fact that they have live jazz. Very expensive though: $30 for a 1 hour 15 minute show PLUS $20 minimum food and beverage per person. Unceremoniously being shussed in and out like cattlefor a show, no reserved seating, no backs on some of the chairs and limited menu, $50 a person for 1 hour and 15 minutes feels like a price gouge. We love jazz and enjoy it at many local venues, but got really turned off by this.

In my opinion this is the best jazz club in Portland. Fabulous local talent every night with international names regularly dropping into the schedule . Great food and drinks with excellent service. Book early, it’s a small and intimate venue and it’s regularly sold out. Love this place.

Nice intimate bar, with a hole in the wall vibe. Like only a few privileged patrons are allowed. Glad we found it

Excellent service and food was great music on point.

I was visiting from western NY,My daughter and her husband took me out for some Jazz. I'm giving three stars, because the uncomfortable stools and cramped space cut off my blood circulation.This took away the experience of fully enjoying the evening. The manager or owner, pleading for money donations Etc during the evening, had a customer behind me say "I feel like I'm in church" The musicians were superb and I support music venues, but you might want to consider padded stools, and a less church way of asking for money. Hope to be back and see some changes❣

Attentive servers, great atmosphere, incredible entertainment, delicious pasta and pizza! Would definitely return
