The Django

Great music, rude staff. Don’t shush your paying guests.

Great experience

It’s a tourist trap. A lot of noise during the actuation, with the waitresses running everywhere and making it difficult to enjoy the music peacefully. Too expensive for the short time of the experience.

Cute but not worth the cover fee, just go to the bar upstairs, much nicer and better value.

Enjoyed an evening of jazz on a Wednesday night. The dirty martinis were the perfect complement to the atmosphere. Once the music started, all talking ceased, and any loud whispering was discouraged.

Great classic night in New York!

Beautiful music and great drinks and bar snacks. The venue is beautiful and memorable.

Will recommend this to anyone I know visiting the city.

Came with my boyfriend, on Monday 7/10/2025. For us, it was quite the bad experience.

The music and ambience were amazing, and we were really enjoying the night until the waiter “invited us” to leave, in the middle of the set (after, say, 7 songs), because we were not going to buy more than our two required drinks each after that.

So basically, we planned a really special night for us for months, picked this place and performer specially after long reviewing others, payed A LOT of money (for NYC 150+ dollars might not be much but not everyone in the world is wealthy… in my country 150 is half of a monthly income!) and in the end left, mid show, unwillingly, and with a bitter feeling.

We could have stayed for the second half, but by then the vibe was completely off, since we didn’t feel like staying in a place forced to re-pay and with the staff being so awkward. So we left quickly, shocked and completely bummed.

So know this: in this place, you pay for half a show, not the complete one. If you want the full show you have to pay double. The staff will be cold and transactional, not subtle about them wanting you to pay up from beginning to end. You’ll have to leave in a hurry when the performers pause so someone else can take your table. Finally, the night won’t be magical, but just an exchange of cash for crumbs of a show.

Thanks the Django for ruining our first night in NYC, and a dream of mine. You suck

Was super excited to visit this place but was unfortunately disappointed with my experience. The music and the ambiance was fantastic I will say, but the food and drinks was terrible. I expected a much better dining experience because of the $$, but the food was very underwhelming. The drinks felt almost watered down. I do not recommend dining here, but the live music was great. The space was also very aesthetically pleasing.

I believe this is great experience especially for a date night (with plans after) this is just my opinion. Since the show is only a hr I just find it best to eat somewhere else I DID NOT try the food since I went to the 12 am show. Only reason I gave it 4 stars is because for a midnight show the performance was too dull, I would’ve appreciated more of a fun hype performance for a 12am show. I like the vibe in there and just the atmosphere overall the drinks were good too I got the old fashion and my parter got the punch cocktail and it came in a cool cup. They also gifted us champagne glasses because we were celebrating something special

Loved the music upstairs, the and dessert we had at The Roxy. No cover, no drink minimum. However the Django downstairs was my first and last time ever! Rude rude rude hostess.
My cousin made a reservation online for 4 for the 10pm show. We arrived with time to spare at 9 pm to check in and he went to the bathroom. The rest of us waited near the host podium for my cousin to return. There was a woman who took the original host’s place. We were enjoying our own conversation and thought we had time to kill and we weren’t listening to names she started calling out. She then comes over to us very aggressively saying Joe??!! Joe??!! Joe party if 4??!!!Looking at my sister and I and shouting. I said yes, he checked in and our reservations for 10pm! She started shouting at us saying “Come on people didn’t you hear me saying the name 10 times??! If you dont answer I’ll give your table to walk ins!” SHE NEVER EVEN SAID his last name to which I would have responded.Just Joe, Joe..” And she was so incredibly rude to us in her tone and we are paying guests! We were not deliberately ignoring her. There was a miscommunication and I was taken Ava k by her manner. I said again to her” our show is at ten”, and she said “No it’ started already so go in!” She wasn’t hearing anything we were saying to her. II had to go in but came out again to find m cousin who wouldn’t have known we went in. Upon returning from the men’s room my cousin was also confused because he knew he made reservations for 10. Horrible experience and we will never come back.

We only got 1 hours of music then were asked to leave as someone was waiting for our table, 200$ bill for 2 people for one set is expensive. To the owner, you should mention explicitly at the time of booking that its not possible to stay for more then 1 set ..
