“They said Bird played bebop, but Bird could still swing. I’ve heard a lot of guys play bebop, but they wasn’t swinging.” - Jay McShann

The flagship venue for national acts in the Bay Area is also one of the best jazz clubs in the nation. Great sightlines and excellent sound highlight the 330-seat room, as does a constant stream of headliners like McCoy Tyner, Dave Douglas, Mose Allison and Regina Carter. Local players make the schedule, too. The stage is elevated and the seating tiered, so there is not a bad seat in the house.

They have a nice sushi restaurant too. The restaurant is seperated from the performance space, but you can get a limited menu in the club. Arive early to stake out your table, then you can wander back to the bar for a drink.
