Culver Club

No more Jazz there, according with the Hotel, it's just a restaurant now.

Busting out the electric slide with my boss? PRICELESS.

Came here one Friday night because my boss' husband's band was playing and had a fantastic time. $10 cover and $15 minimum, though somehow I dodged both of these minor details... Perhaps, I slipped through because of our large group? A good majority of my coworkers were there to support the band since we're such a tight-knit office family.

Decent drink and menu selection, tiny tables scattered throughout, awesome jazzy atmosphere, and a little dance floor by the right side of the stage. I can only describe my night as wholesome good ol' fashion fun!

Since the Jazz Bakery closed, this has become the de facto best jazz room on the west side.  Great sound, a warm inviting space, and serious listening.  It is only one night a week, on Friday's, and reservations are often needed for the early show (starts at 7:30 lately).
There is now often a nominal cover charge, plus a $15 minimum, but with free parking it is still one of the best jazz deals in town.
