The concert itself was excellent. I went to see Robert Glasper. The venue is pretty small. The seating was really tight with long tables for eight people right along the front and you're either facing the performer or your back is to the performer. Then there's some booth seating across the aisle which people were crammed into that as well but I guess that's part of the vibe and as long as the music is good, you kind of forget about it. I purchased VIP seating which was first come access to the long tables near the front but once the venue is full there's barely enough room between the chairs to lift your drink or eat comfortably. The wait staff was nice. We had a great righteous at our table although they do trick you with the sparkling or in Stillwater. I asked for Stillwater and that I was going to get a glass of water and was brought out a whole bottle which is enough for two people. So you have to specifically ask for a glass of water and I ordered the cheesecake which wasn't bad. Overall it was a good experience. I really did enjoy the concert.

Bought tickets to a show that was cancelled and the they wouldn't apply the credit to any future show. That was wack. Only reason it's 4 stars and not less is the caliber of the shows.

This is my second year at Robtober for my birthday and this year Cordae was there! And as usual, Robert and his band were AMAZING! Cordae was awesome, too! The best part of my night? Robert’s wife!!! It was her birthday, too and she was a blast!!! She had the whole club hype! Great energy in the club that night! Blue note never fails!

Cool place is you like jazz. Reccomend to get there early so you can get a good seat. Emily King was amazing.

The bar tickets are a total scam. You end up in a remote corner of the venue, packed with 50 people on hardly 4 square meters. No view, mediocre sound, a lot of noise from the bar. Bartenders are rude and make you feel like a milk cow. Such a pity this temple and its culture are disgraced by these money-hungry people.

We were very disappointed with the Oct 4th experience. We were told the doors would open at 10 and the jazz show would start at 10:30 but after waiting over an hour in line the show finally began at 11:30. Then it opened with a DJ set and when the “jazz group” came out to play-it was rap music. The second song was like a scene out of Friends where Ross was playing the keyboard. It was so bad that we left after the 2nd song at midnight. Service was ok, nothing great. Would consider giving it another shot but would definitely look up who the talent is before purchasing tickets.

My partner and I visited for the Wyclef performance. While the show itself was absolutely incredible — a true 10/10 — the dining experience left room for improvement.
Most of the prime tables were reserved for Wyclef’s friends and family, leaving the general audience with less desirable seating. On top of that, another party of four was seated at our table, which felt far from intimate, though fortunately they were friendly and we enjoyed their company.
The restroom was surprisingly cramped given the size of the venue. As for the food and drinks, they did not meet expectations. My partner ordered the chicken and shrimp Alfredo, which lacked seasoning and flavor. I would recommend sticking to a simpler menu option, such as a burger, and keeping drinks basic as well.
On a positive note, our waitress was very kind and attentive, which I truly appreciated. Overall, while the concert itself was phenomenal, the restaurant side of the experience could use some refinement.

Crammed with little space at tables a d inbetween & strange lay out for stage view. Over priced for what you get as band played for 1 hour max. Was clear they just wanted everyone out quick to get the next lot in. Not worth it at all.

The venue earns one star for its horrific seating—even if you arrive 30 minutes before doors open. The chairs are narrow, with zero clearance between them, making it tighter than an airplane. Worst of all, the tables sit perpendicular to the stage and are offset far from center, so half your party must twist their torso and neck WELL past 90 degrees just to see. With no seat clearance and everyone packed in, you can’t turn your chair or even your legs. It would be far better to charge 30% more and reduce density by the same amount so people have a decent experience. We would have had a better time at almost any other jazz club that doesn’t physically torture its customers—even without a big-name headliner. Although the food and acoustics were okay, the seating is so bad it negates everything else.

Finally visited Blue Note and it felt like a lifetime achievement. It’s always meaningful visiting a jazz club with a historical relevance.
Given it’s a jazz club, the space was compact. The drinks were better than expected and I would recommend the Tokyo Twist. The ticket instructions indicated the door opens at 6, but they didn’t seat us until 6:30, which was a bit strange.
Regardless, it feels amazing seeing one of your favorite artists in a place none other than Blue Note. Overall, it was a memorable experience.
It is the Bluenote, one of the institutions of live jazz music. It is important to know to get decent seats with a good view of the stage you need to be there before the doors open. At least 45 minutes. Once inside be ready to share the table and be squeezed because the space is very limited and tight.

We were there to see Charlie Puth. Great venue with not a bad seat in the house. The staff were all very professional. The food and drinks were exceptional.
