Brussel Sprouts
Molly S.

Ventured to western mass for a hockey game, and glad we popped into this spot! My preferred ambiance of dark lit, fun colors, and good music. Sat upstairs and was nice and quiet! Brussels were perfect amount of crunch, and loved the glaze. Caesar salad was phenomenal, the best croutons I've ever had on a salad to boot! Lol. Boyfriend enjoyed his burger, and brother loved the chicken dinner. Definitely recommend, a little pricey but overall enjoyed our meals! Just shoot for street parking not the lot across the street $$

Lemon Drops (delicious)
Louise A.

During our visit to Springfield MA we were looking for a black owned restaurant. We were so thankful to find Dewey's Jazz Lounge! The drinks, food, service and atmosphere were all amazing! Our waitress Destiny was such a pleasure to talk to! Since it was our first time visiting, she gave us suggestions and made us feel welcome...WE HAD A GREAT TIME! Definitely a great place to visit

Black mojito and regular mojito
Lauren C.

My husband and I came here on Sunday for our 2 year anniversary. I totally did not know that the only menu available on Sundays is the brunch menu! I was looking forward to trying the mac and cheese! We ended up ordering wings and the brunch burger. My husband tried the black lavender mojito and I had a regular one. It took 45+ minutes for our food to come out. The restaurant wasn't that crowded so I'm not sure why it took so long but our waitress apologized for the delay. I would've liked a complimentary dessert to make up for the wait or even as a "Happy Anniversary" gesture since I included that in the notes with my reservation. Besides that, we loved the live jazz music which is one of the reasons why we chose Dewey's. Besides the fact that our food took so long, I also felt uncomfortably cold. We were seated towards the back away from the door where people were entering but there was a draft and Springfield's weather is no joke! Overall, it was definitely a cool ambience with the live music. I liked the couches and decor around the restaurant as well.

This represents 40 plus years of friendship! We chose to come here and it was AWESOME! The food and service was great!

This was a great place to celebrate 40 years of friendship. The food and service was great! Worth the ride from CT!

Shrimp and grits
Eric E.

Cool little place I came for an early dinner before there was any live music (if there is on a Wednesday). Got a drink...no complaints....and had the shrimp and grits. Pretty good for something from a northeast US establishment. Interesting combination of tomato sauce? Grits were excellent. 4-5 large shrimp. Good meal. Service was a little slow but nice. A good place for an easygoing meal. Some reviews mentioned the sound level and it is not quiet by any means. They have jazz playing and it is not loud but not quiet/low either. Not offensive but if you want quiet I would say go elsewhere

Crab dip
Etta E.

Came to this place on a Friday night for a date. WOW. Ambiance: cozy and elegant. They didn't have live music but the background music was easy listening and not too loud. It was snowing outside and a comfortable temperature inside. Food: get the burger. And the sweet potato pie. Both were SO good. We also had the crab dip and chicken fried steak, which were both delicious. I had a mocktail mojito and my husband had their famous "Billie's Holiday" cocktail. They were both great! He loved the limoncello in his. He also had the margarita - the drink of the month - and said it was very good. Service: Valencia was our server and she was wonderful! She was very attentive but not overbearing. The food came out promptly and it was a comfortable meal that lasted ~ 2 hours for an app, drinks, entree, dessert and coffee. We will definitely be back! Ps. Lots of metered parking one street over

Apple cider mimosa
Cecilia F.

Had a great brunch at Dewey's! The shrimp and grits was fantastic. Very flavorful, decent amount of large shrimp, grits were creamy and the portion size was perfect. Paired this with the apple cider mimosa, also delicious. The bartender was attentive and personable. The owner stepped in and helped when it started picking up, that was great to see and he was also very nice. Looking forward to coming back! (Got a picture of my mimosa but forgot to snag a pic of my food, it looked so good we dug right in)

"It's a wonderful world"-sweet, delicious drink
Brooklyn H.

Black owned spot in downtown Springfield-who knew? Nice vibes, live band, great sweet drinks. Will definitely come through again my next visit from NYC!

Billie's Holiday cocktail (vodka, house-made limoncello, pomegranate juice, Prosecco)
Erica S.

Billie's Holiday, Louis's Lemonade, Duke's Margarita--the cocktail list at Dewey's Lounge is as much of an homage to the golden age of jazz as the set list itself, which highlights regional artists including Malado!, the Eric Bascom Trio, and the Jeremy Turgeon Quintet. Based in downtown Springfield on Worthington Street--the heart of the growing Dining District--Dewey's Lounge is the latest in culinary and cocktail artistry in the region. Chicken and waffles? Check. Raspberry cheesecake pancakes? Check. House-made limoncello, ice cream, and barrel-aged spirits? Check. Dewey's has got it all. Opening on June 12, the restaurant, bar, and live music venue features full-service dining, two bar areas, a mezzanine-level performance stage, and an impressive 1,500-square foot outside dining patio. Sized for 150 guests, Dewey's is sure to please a wide variety of patrons, from the craft cocktail lover and jazz aficionado to the bougie foodie and nightlife adventurer. I visited during the soft launch and tried a number of cocktails... all were delicious! I especially enjoyed Lady Ella and Billie's Holiday. Great music venue, and I can't wait to try brunch!

Mamou

(20 reviews)

Back in the day, the original Big Mamou was the place to be! a small, "hole-in-the-wall" spot with…read morephenomenal food. It had maybe eight tables, and you'd wait along the wall for a table to open up. You could even bring your own liquor, and the food was absolutely worth it. Fast-forward to now: a chef who used to work at Big Mamou opened this spinoff. The place is way bigger and has a full bar. We went there for lunch, and I got a catfish po'boy. The food was okay. Not bad, but nothing I'd write home about. I also ordered a drink and asked if it was close to an old-fashioned. The waitress said no, but it literally was an old-fashioned, and I didn't enjoy it. The staff, however, was great very nice and attentive. The chef even made me homemade honey mustard because, let's be honest, I'm a child and have to have honey mustard with my fries. I'm definitely planning to go back and try something else. hoping to capture a little of the magic from the old Big Mamou

It is my distinct honor and pleasure to be the first Yelp reviewer for the legendary remix of…read moreMamou!!! Ivan you have outdone yourself. First I will tell you Wayne Hooker is a perfectionist. For Ivan to take this icon to this level is divine and genius. The food is, dare I say, better than before! We had a rum punch that the bartender made up on her own. Delicious. It's the only picture I took because after the drink I fell in love again. We ordered the cheesy bread. I had the red beans and rice with sausage and chicken. My table mate had the etuffee with chicken and shrimp. We shared the banana Foster for dessert. Welcome back Mamou! We celebrate your return. P.S I must talk about this space! We all remember the limited tables and lines out the door. None of that. I even peeked online and they'll even take reservations. Kudos and I will see you soon.
