Although I dont live in the northwest, every time Im in Seattle I try catch a show here. On this visit we saw Poncho Sanchez. Showed up 10 minutes before the doors opened without reservations or tickets. Staff is totally helpful and happy to greet us in. Fun selection of drinks and the desserts were just right. My previous experience with their food has always been positive. Awesome venue to watch any Entertainer in a very intimate environment. As a musician and sound engineer, the audible experience is Heavenly Bliss to my ears. The sound and acoustics are perfectly balanced to deliver an exquisite Studio sound over the live performance. Its the closest thing to being in a studio with a tableside dinner and a small crowd surrounding. Really is a great experience. Highly recommend.

Great experience with great food and music! Arturo Sandoval was on the card and he and his band did not disappoint. Live, interactive and engaging. The service was also excellent! Our table of six got an upgrade due to a cancellation and the host was very gracious in offering a better vantage point. Would definitely recommend and revisit next time we are in town.

Front table at the side of the stage.Enjoyed the concert. Musicians all were of an excellent standard. The band came back for few more tunes after leaving and audience kept calling for more from the Artist Marcia Ball.

1) The acoustics are incredible. You can hear yourself talk without yelling, using your inside voice. And the sound system brings the performer to your table. 2) Not a bad seat in the house. 3) Delectable food prepared and served by professionals. First time here and well be back.

This is a very intimate venue to see a concert. I dont know if there is a bad seat ...it seems like you can see the performers well from all the seats. We also had a very nice dinner prior to the concert. The parking garage is just around the corner from the venue. It was free parking with validation.

Despite the size of the venue, the feeling is intimate. Sound management is extraordinary and sightlines are excellent. We also had dinner and its excellent. Delicious lasagna and calamari appetizer. Prices are high, but it is in a city. Service was great! The photo is from The Blind Boys of Alabama set before the show. Three of the originals are still singing, but theyve added a guitar/vocalist, drums, and a bass-guitarist/vocalist who is a fabulous counter-tenor. It was a great show, a great venue.

We saw Regina Bell. The performance was amazing. The shrimp and grits were wonderful. We usually get cornbread with it but the waitress didn’t ask if we wanted. She also didn’t come back for our dessert order after I told her I would be getting dessert. Worst server we’ve ever had there. But an awesome night out despite her service.

They bring more nationally known artists. The venue has the intimate feel. Either lower level or balcony, you can see performance pretty well. Ticket price is reasonable and it includes parking. They serve pretty good food as well. My favorite is Albacore Nicoise Salad and Corn Bread.

This was my first time at Dimitrious Jazz Alley to see Philip Bailey perform. When we arrived there was a long line to enter, I thought for sure it was going to take a long time. There were two ladies checking people in and giving them their ticket for their table which made things go smoothly. As soon as they open the doors the line moved quickly. There were staff members to lead you to your table. Soon after that there was a waitress to take your order. The waitress was very attentive throughout the whole night which was great. Philip Bailey was terrific he had a great performance along with his wife and the band. I would definitely go back to this venue it was just very professional and seamless from start to finish.

If your favorite band.is playing, or just a group you cant wait to see, Jazz Alley is the place to be! Intimate venue with great food and drinks. Make a reservation and have a memorable date night!

Review №19

Great venue, but they need to have more staff at large events. Staff is scrambling to get orders and they skip over simple items like beverages and refilling them in a timely manner. 10 to 15 mins sitting is idle. Gave me time to decide not order anything else.

I love Jazz Alley! The food was really good. Tonight I had the barbecued short ribs. They were lean, tender, and flavorful. The greens were well seasoned and tender with just the right amount of crunch. We had great seats but then most of the seats have a great veiw and all are comfortable. I highly recommend them they are the quintessential jazz supper club.

We visit here every couple months, they have the best shows. Sound is great, the food is fabulous and the atmosphere is relaxed and dressy casual. Shows can sell out super fast so its best to sign up for their advance notifications, the Alley Cats. Jazz Alley is one of our favorite places for dinner and music and its a fabulous place for a date night!

Review №23

My wife and I have gone to Dimitrous twice now and both times were wonderful experiences. Five stars for the terrific environment and selection of jazz musicians. We most recently went to their Christmas jazz concert with Bobby Caldwell performing, and it was spectacular to see him perform live and up close. The food served here is average at best and overpriced. Weve dined here for a full meal once and just had dessert the second time. Both times we regretted ordering anything. Its clearly a venue focused on the music, so if youre interested in good food, Id advise you to go out to eat and then catch the shows at 9:30.

First time here and we had a great time. Food was excellent and service was great. Our seat was to the side of the stage. We could really see the band but I suspect a seat in front would have been even better.

The only premier jazz clubs/lounges in the Seattle area. Always packed with a huge line up of Grammy award winning artists. The atmosphere is intimate and welcoming. The food menu is incredible. Its a great date night location. Once you go, youll be going back more often.

Jazz club with close seating to stage. Much better than going to a large venue where you watch the artist on a large screen. You can have dinner or just something to drink while you enjoy the concert.

Go for drinks, food looked two to three stars. Drinks are overpriced also but worth it for the show. Saw Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, awesome intimate venue. Might be worth calling to understand your seating as we sat at an awkward sideways angle.

I love the up close and personal seating and Entertainment is five Star. five-star. But the service this time was exceptionally slow and unacceptable, especially considering the prices there charging for dinner. Employ more and better qualified waitress and waiters. I was not happy. The service can make or break an establishment.... at least for me.

We had a great night at the jazz alley! The whole program including dinner is a little pricey. We went just for drinks, music and some dessert another night - in that case the tables are not too close to the stage though. Definitely check it out!

Best, maybe only place, for past 35 years +, for live jazz from top national artists and occasional top blues from across the country. Costs a bit more but well worth it. Matches up well to any club in NYC, LA, & CHICAGO.

Excellent musicians. If you spring for dinner you can get seats right in front of the stage. Parking is included and easy. If you see a band you want to hear then do it at Jazz Alley. Heres a pic from our table of the stage.

Take one-of-a-kind performers, throw in delectable food and beverages, efficient servers and staff, along with the warmth of a softly-lit intimate venue where every seat is great and you have Dimitrious Jazz Alley in Seattle. I just celebrated my 4th visit there Sept. 29th for Sergio Mendes and it was sublime! Canadians simply dont get to see acts like this at home. Back next April for Tower of Powers 50th anniversary and cannot wait. Praise all around!

Awesome venue in downtown Seattle! The acts are all world class, the place has a really chill vibe, and the food is really good.The staff was super friendly and accommodating, especially with all my allergies. Everything went smoothly and the food was delicious.One thing to keep in mind is the food will cost you more than the tickets, it’s really pricey, but worth it for the kind of service you get. (And honestly, pretty much everywhere in Seattle is pricey).Overall, 9/10 would definitely come here again. 100% would recommend

Love Jazz and Heavy Metal, but I dont fit in either crowd real well. A bit too high end in the Jazz crowd (especially for what I make), and the Heavy Metal crowd (well I dont smoke anything and cant stand tattoos either).

Review №59

As a group of 6, we saw Victor Wooten on March 21st with a nearly stagefront table. I try to visit jazz clubs in every city that I visit.Dimitriou’s is a beautiful venue. The ambience, service, food, and wine list are amazing.In terms of food, the use of genuine parmesan reggiano is particularly appreciated. If you’re looking to order the prime rib, arrive early! The seafood options are also fantastic.The experience, however, was frustrating to enjoy due to the two stagefront guests constantly recording video for both Instagram and Snapchat. No action was taken to enforce the venue’s rules despite bringing this to the attention of our waiter.I’d love to return, hopefully without the presence of those constantly recording short clips.

We have been visiting Jazz Alley for years and they continue to bypass expectations. The venue itself is grand yet intimate. The musical offerings range from big name stars to new artists that this organization promotes so well. The menu is great, drinks are generous and service is impeccable and accommodating. You often will meet friendly folks sitting at the table near you. This is a great night out!

Jazz Alley is an amazing place! We have discovered it 3 years ago when we visited Seattle for the first time as a family (my wife, 3 kids, and I). And since then, we are loyal customers who come here a few times a year. We would want to come more often, but we leave in Vancouver, BC, so its a 3-hour ride. Its a very cozy place with great sound. If you are early enough ordering the tickets, you can have an excellent table right in front of the stage. Their manager, Bernie, is a very friendly and accommodating guy. Every time we come here, he treats us as VIP customers. The ticket prices are affordable. I would even say that for the top artists like those that come to perform here (and I mean they are really the top of the top in their genre), the prices are low (in a good sense). But the food prices are terribly high. If there is one thing I would want to suggest is lowering the food prices. However, those who come here for live music, the food is secondary, so the overall experience of seeing and listening live to your favorite musicians, and being able to take pictures with and talk to them after the show, is invaluable. Looking forward to our next show, Tower of Power in April.

Jazz Alley has first class acts. The food is a little pricey but really tasty and this helps support a good show. The waitstaff overall is very professional and know when they make themselves present. Id like to see more explanation on the menu about dairy and gluten-free options. And Id raise this to a five-star if they would replace the padding in the chairs, their rock hard. Sitting for an hour and a half on the chairs is not pleasant.

Jazz Alley is one of the most prestigious Jazz Clubs in the country if not World. Jazz GREATS come to play here. Years ago, I saw Ahmad Jamal, and recently, I sat up close and personal to hear KEIKO MATSUI, she was beyond OUTSTANDING, a STELLAR performance filled with electric energy and rich stories. I am a big fan of her and Jazz Alley. You will find the CUISINE as well to be quite worthy of applause. Its more than a Jazz Venue, Its a beautiful experience in great music, sound acoustics, and hospitality. See for yourself, Jazz Alley is THEE PLACE FOR JAZZ.

Review №97

This is, in my opinion, the best jazz venue in Seattle. You feel like a special guest since the moment you arrive... no need to print a ticket, parking included and being able to select your table. Additionally this is one of the only jazz places where it is not mandatory to purchase dinner (it is delicious, but it is nice to able to simply have a glass of wine if you are on a budget and want to enjoy live jazz). The ambiance and the quality of the artists is remarkable.

Im a man who loves to impress his wife. 3/09/2019 was not the truth. Michelle whom my wife loves ( I am also a big fan) did not perform as advertised. Not her but some dude. Not saying he was bad just not what I paid for. This was not billed correctly. I spent a hell of a lot more money than ticket price for my wife to see one of her favorite artist. Hotel, parking, dinner. Once in a lifetime event for her. Billed wrong. With the right information I could have come out better. The venue is to die for, loved it. Is Victor Wooten going to perform. Might like to see who I paid to see.

Amazing music, food, and entertainment. Definitely worth the pretty penny it costs getting in and ordering food. If you have the expendable income i highly recommend it.
