Editorial reviews from the web (4)

Catch some "cool jazz" at this longtime Village "way of life" that stays "in touch with its roots" via "top-name" acts and a "rock-the-room" sound system; to doubters it's a "super-tight", "touristy" "sardine can" serving "mediocre" American grub, but fans insist it's all "about the entertainment, period."

Don't come here expecting some smoky Village jazz club of romantic legend. This is a far glitzier affair, with offshoots all over the world. You can't argue with the talent, though. The crème de la crème of the jazz world performs here, and on a typical night, you might find Milton Nascimento or the Clark Terry Quintet or David Sanborn or a glittering group of all stars saluting Dizzy Gillespie.

Regarding the Jazz scene in New York City, one of the Blue Note's managers matter-of-factly told us: "This is it." Indeed, the Blue Note is arguably the world’s most popular jazz club. Although the club only opened their doors in the early 80’s, it has the feel of a longtime veteran in the New York Jazz scene. Once you get over the commercial feel of the joint, including its gold-plaque...

The glitzy antithesis of the Village Vanguard gets powerhouse bookings--and respects the music.

The Scene
It has only been around since the mid-'80s, but it feels like the Blue Note has been on West 3rd Street forever. Once you get past a lot of trappings--the grand piano awning,...

Let's be clear: If you go to the Blue Note, you're going there for the music. It's not for the food, which is a side benefit. We were there this week for music, and the food was very good (one got steak, one got salad,...

Had a wonderful evening at the Blue Note Jazz Bar, whilst on holiday in New York.
As we had not booked we were lucky to get the last 2 seats at the bar. $20 per person, entrance fee.

My husband and I went there for brunch on sunday. Just loved the experience... great music, efficient service and delicious food. Note that the service is ‘a la carte’ so dont expect any messy fatty buffet. Would definitly recomend.
