    Great music!
    Steve G.

    Great place! Great music, good food and terrific drinks! Live this place and just the overall experience. Speak Easy feel takes you back to the days of the "rat pack"! Wonderful place. We were here on New Orleans night and enjoyed it tremendously!

    Tucked away under the Bottleing Department at The Pearl, is Jazz TX a dinner and show club with a speakeasy feel; walk down the steps behind the curtain to a dimly lit room. Upon arrival we were immediately greeted with warmth friendliness. The service was good, the food was great, the drinks were terrific and the music was fabulous! Intimate setting, good crowd. Every one should visit and recommend. Every thing about this place was top notch will definitely be returning and brining others. Plan early as the they do get close to selling out (nightly) even in the ice storm I think there were maybe 2 tables open. And respect the reservation time. Its worh the money. Full bar menu wide verity of whiskey and Bourbon. They offer 2 mock tails on the menu but I'm sure with the full bar they could make any, no non alcohol beer.

    This was my first time visiting Jazz, TX. From the show, the food, the drinks, and service (thanks Jesse) every thing was top notch. So much so I wish I could make this a weekly outing. Don't hesitate, book your show today!

    Winner winner for a few reasons. We are downtown residence for over 15 years. When family and friends visit, the Pearl is a MUST visit, along with Jazz TX if we can get it! Packed/booked all the time and for good reason. If interested, get online and make a reservation! Sure, you want to see some country western, you're in Texas, but........ - Jazz best in SATX - Food OMG spot on - Cocktails, some of the best mixologist in town and under the eye of one of the best in the business! - Location, at the Pearl. When your done with the show, can walk the Pearl. We have gone often and never disappointed. With 30 plus years in the hospitality arena, (now retired) trust me on this one!

    This was a charming and wonderful experience! This place is hidden in plain sight being located beneath the food hall at the pearl. You take the set of stairs on the side of the building down into a hidden speak easy-esque bar and dining room with a stage where the band plays. I attended a New Orleans themed night which was absolutely amazing. The band was phenomenal and routinely plays at jazz, TX. The drink I had was so delicious that I ordered three! The drink menu is unique and very very good, as is the food menu! I ordered the calamari, risotto, and tried my friend's ravioli which was also delicious. The service was also outstanding. This is such a fun place for a romantic date night and a great excuse to dress up. You need to buy tickets in advance and it does sell out. I highly recommend checking this place out.

    So far, this has been my favorite jazz venue in San Antonio. The cozy location allows you to make reservations in advance. My favorite part was, of course, the excellent music, but I also really enjoyed the food and drinks. The service was great as well. I will definitely be returning! Below is my rating on what I ordered: *Tacos: 5/5 *Calamari: 5/5 *Piña Colada: 5/5 *Shrimp Cocktail: 5/5

    Food was really good, especially the tenderloin. Margaritas were very tasty and reasonably priced. Service was super great and attentive. The place is small due to the seating chairs and tables but makes up for it by having salsa, merengue, bachata nights on Wednesday. Cute little charm!

    WOW!! What an evening! I love everything about Jazz TX. This night has been my favorite. If you've never been you must check this place out. The music of a Charlie Brown Christmas tugs at the heartstrings... Veronica was a fantastic waitress. Our food was really good. Salmon dip! Too bad I had to share. Almond Chicken...... So good Risotto with chicken.... Oh snap!

    A nice place for date night. Romantic and dark ambiance with warm lighting and nice Jazz. It seems like they have a variety of shows with varying energy levels and prices. You can check their calendar for more info. I sat at the bar and paid around $25-$30 for my bar seat. The musicians were very talented and i especially enjoyed the piano solos. It is a little pricey and you can find places with lower fees and talented musicians, but you're paying for the ambiance and "bigger" names here. The bar staff was friendly but the space was cramped. Hard to get in and out of the bar seats you were so close to your neighbor and narrow paths for the waiters to walk around you.

    The venue was great and so was the entertainment. The food was mediocre at best. The service did not stand out to me either.

    Our husbands treated us to a girls getaway night and booked us here for a Disney special jazz night. The band was so fun and energetic and entertaining. We loved every moment of it. Drinks were top notch and everyone was enjoying it.

    Brought my mother in law while she was in town visiting. It's always a great time. The vibe and ambience is what you come here for. We tried jazz night this time and loved it! Highly recommend. Tried the almond chicken and it was great. And our server was patient and just a doll - thank you for the experience!

    Book at least 1 to 1.5 months ahead--seats fill up fast, and it's worth the wait! Jazz TX combines fantastic live music with top-notch food, making it an unforgettable night out. I've visited Jazz TX multiple times, and it never disappoints. Highly recommend Salsa Night! with Jose Amador at-least once. Recently attended **A Tribute to the Music of Walt Disney**, and it was pure nostalgia. We loved it so much that we returned for **The Music of Walt Disney - Volume II** to celebrate our nephew's birthday. Both shows were fun trips down memory lane for any Disney fan. The food is always excellent, but these dishes stood out: - **8oz Center Cut Filet:** Perfectly cooked and flavorful, with seasoned fingerling potatoes and grilled leek. - **Braised Tenderloin:** Tender and rich, served with roasted garlic polenta and a tasty red wine tomato sauce. - **Mushroom Ravioli:** Delicious house-made ravioli with mushrooms, spinach, and truffle oil. As a Dominican, I chuckled at the **Coconut Dominicana**, but I ended up loving it! The aged rum, coffee liqueur, and coconut whipped cream were perfectly balanced. If you're looking for an amazing evening of music and food, Jazz TX is a must-visit!

    They were all phenomenal!

    Ask the Community - Jazz TX

    Can I enter without a reservation outside of the performance time?

    Probably yes. This venue will often time resell the tickets of patrons that have bought tickets in advance if they are a few minutes late.

    The show starts at 7:30 and the reservation shows 6:15- are we able to stay for the show?

    They stagger the reservations so Arrivals are not waiting in line. You do get to stay for the show.

    Is this venue 21 and up only? My son loves jazz music but is under 21.

    I've been with my brother many times, who is under 21. If he's with you, I don't think it should be a problem!

    Is there a cover?

    There's a charge if there's a show

    Is there a dress code?

    Hi Lola, we don’t have a dress code. People do tend to dress up, but there’s no dress code, per se. Hope this helps! Doc

For her second drink, she told the bartender to surprise her. He gave her a look and asked more than once if she was sure she wanted him to surprise her. Instead of making her an actual cocktail, he poured her what seemed to be a straight, extremely bitter liqueur. The whole interaction felt sarcastic and like he was intentionally messing with her rather than trying to make her something she would enjoy. What bothered me most was the attitude behind it. We weren't being rude, demanding, or causing problems. We were there to have a good time and experience the whole "tell us what you like and we'll make you something" concept. I did call the number listed for the business afterward trying to speak to someone about it. The person who answered said I had the wrong number and didn't know what I was talking about. I got angry during that call and said some things I shouldn't have, and I can admit that. But that doesn't change how disappointing the experience at the bar was. We expected a creative and welcoming experience and instead left feeling like my wife had been mocked. I hope management sees this and addresses it, because the concept of the place is great, but the way we were treated completely ruined it for us

I arrived without a reservation, but that wasn't going to work so I made one about an hour ahead and just waited it out. I'm glad I did. The swordfish Asada was delectable and all of the accoutrements that come with it take the whole thing to another level. I couldn't decide between the white mole cauliflower and guacamole to start so I got both. It would be hard to imagine not having either as they are both really special dishes. The tortillas and honey butter that came out are basically like having your dessert early. I think the highlight of my meal was that I was eating a green onion, and one of the servers walked by and in the nicest possible way suggested that I didn't know how to properly eat it. He was correct as it turns out, after he showed me how they did it around the kitchen table growing up I enjoyed them so much more. Both super cool and brave of him to suggest. Can't wait for my next visit. Absolutely stellar. If you're on the fence about eating here, get off the damn fence and make a reservation.

We also had the snapper throats and loved them. The aioli was a great sauce with them. I had the gulf catch of the day, which was grouper, and it was so good. Great seasoning, perfectly flaky and moist, a nice crust on the outside. With that we had some jalapeno corn bread which was also delicious. Not too dry at all. I was hoping for it to be spicy but it was not. For dessert, I gad panna cotta and it was a great ending. Not too sweet, but the berries made up for that. The lavender meringue bites had a great crunch. Our server (Maya) was excellent. She was so friendly and helpful. Finally, the decor is unmatched anywhere. It used to be a brewery and they kept the old pipes and valves, which look very cool. It has a great vibe. I highly recommend. Without the need to, I'll mention anyway that it's not cheap. But it's worth it.
