Andy's Jazz Club & Restaurant Chicago Reviews
Whenever we come into Chicago we always like to stop by
Whenever we come into Chicago we always like to stop by Andy's Jazz Club for dinner and some good jazz. We've been here twice, once for the late night show on Saturday and another night we went on a Sunday for the earlier show. The earlie
A nice date night place in an intimate setting.
The music was also very good, although a little too loud. But that might have also been because we were too close to the band. The food was good. Not great but not bad. The waitress was kind enough to come attend to us regularly in spite of the loud
I really really dislike jazz, buy hubby loves it, so I went.
My review therefore is based on the foof and the ambience. Very uncomfortable eating and too small a venue. They make you wait outside until exactly 5:30, so if the weather is bad, make sure you come as close in time for your show. It's not
I've only had a great time here.
..and I'm a local. Was just back tonight and brought a guest with me and she had a great time. I actually ended up leaving my bag there, and the wait staff was so amazing. They kept it for me. They called me multiple times and when I realized I
The place is phenomenal!!! The food is good and service
The place is phenomenal!!! The food is good and service comes with great service. The music from the live band was amazing!! We decided to have our anniversary celebration here and it did not disappoint. Shirts are $25 if you want to a souvenir. Dr
Shout Section Big Band is a Must See
We scheduled our trip to Chicago so that we could see the Shout Section Big Band. So glad we did that! The band was fantastic and the singer, Tatum Langley was wonderful. If you like Swing/Big Band music this is a MUST SEE and if you aren’t sure y

The band was great.
Everything else? Not so much. Went on a Monday night for their 5:30. Off the bat, the clientele were pushy and rude, with no regard for personal space. I'm no stranger to crowded places, but really it wasn't THAT crowded that you needed to

This was a fun place to mellow out, have a drink, and enjoy a live jazz band going at it. Depending on the night or venue, you may have to make reservations in advance as they can sell out quickly. Best to call in or check their website for more in
Even if you’re not a jazz fan , the live music will carry you along. Fantastic
Enjoyed the Charles Heath band immensely, his band leadership stood proud and provided us with a superlative show. At the jam session several of his students made their contribution which was a joy to see The food and service are excellent
Reserve a table, thank me later
Went to the iconic Andy's jazz club after dinner to hear the Bob Lark Alumni Big Band. Excellent show, excellent space, great time. Why four stars? Ok, so you HAVE to have a reservation to get in according to their website. I knew I wasn'

I've never written a review like this before, but what happened on my birthday night at this jazz club was beyond unacceptable. My friends and I (all above 21) had made a reservation in advance to celebrate my birthday. When we arrived, the fro

Andy's Jazz Club had such a fun, upbeat energy.
Reservations are required and I really recommend booking for the main seating area as the bar and the back corner were pretty removed and had obscured views. There are set show times so be sure to arrive on time to be seated. You'll line up outs
Please note this is not a place to go if you want a place
Please note this is not a place to go if you want a place to sit and chat. It's more of a place to go if you want to enjoy drinks, a live jazz band, all while being respectful and remain quiet during the performance. Hubby wanted to go to a ba

This was my first time at a jazz club with live music, and the atmosphere itself was very nice. The band played well and really set the mood. But the biggest issue was the audience around us. The people sitting nearby kept talking loudly throughout
The first video is my POV, the second is the party sat
The first video is my POV, the second is the party sat directly after me. Don't make a reso for the bar, the staff doesn't prioritize your ability to see the show. The talent was remarkable to hear but should have just bought their CD. Less
Solo Traveler
Great way to spend your evening. You can have dinner and drinks while listening to great performances. If you sit by the bar expect it to be a little bit tidy on your boost. Bartenders were fast and friendly. The food was acceptable.
It was a fun experience to enjoy a nice dinner while
It was a fun experience to enjoy a nice dinner while listening to local jazz. Food was pretty good too. We got jambalaya and risotto to share, and started with steak nacho supreme. The seating can be hit and miss, where you have to crane your neck to
Gosh I adore this place! Definitely one of my go-to places
Gosh I adore this place! Definitely one of my go-to places in Chicago. You just can't have a bad time here. Great food: highly recommend the Cajun risotto and kale Caesar, but the ravioli is pretty bomb too. Great music: different musicians ev
Meh, not the best run venue, and too small for a big band
The reservation and ticketing process was annoying and inefficient. Everyone has to have an online reservation and go through the trouble of registering with a credit card. That is only so they can charge no shows. Everyone still had to pay at the do
Wonderful!
Absolutely wonderful! The band was amazing and the entire club has such a great and cozy feel. The acoustics are amazing. The food and drinks were fine. We just has an appetizer.
Great time, great music and the food was solid.
Portions were a little small but very tasty, I had the jambalaya and was not disappointed. Some of the staff were a little standoffish for a not busy night. However, our server Ty made up for it 10 fold, he was incredibly friendly, honest, charismati
I had an absolute horrible experience.
I planned a sweet 16 Birthday dinner for my daughter as she is in the Jazz Band as she has hopes of being a professional Saxophonist. While making reservations I did let them know this was a birthday celebration and asked if we could bring a cake a

Andy's has been on my list for quite a while so I was glad to visit during a friend's birthday celebration. The jazz music was excellent! I wish the show was longer than an hour and a half. There are two shows (at least on Saturday) so the
Great venue for jazz. We didn’t try the food but the menu looked good.
Great venue for jazz. We didn’t try the food but the menu looked good. We enjoyed a late evening for music at Sandy’s and recommend it for fellow travelers and music lovers. Server was very friendly. The ambience was jazzy! I felt inspired by the
This place is great for tourists and jazz fans alike.
The staff gets everybody seated and set up, the bartenders and servers take great care of everyone, and the bands typically start their sets (and end them) exactly on time. While it runs like a well-oiled machine, suitable to get all the tourists in
Great spot for dinner and live music.
Experience depends on how close you sit to the stage, and you can choose. Service is excellent
Everything could improve.
The wait staff were rude, the extremely expensive food was mediocre and the extremely loud music was obnoxious. But do, by all means come if you want to have a horrible time.
Go! Get her asap! Make reservations and enjoy this amazing
Go! Get her asap! Make reservations and enjoy this amazing vibe. I love it, my boyfriend loved it too!
Great music and ambience.
Great music and ambiance. Definitely a place to go if you like good jazz music. Did not have dinner, just drinks. Highly recommend a visit.
Always a must do in Chicago!
At 5 pm we were able to squeeze in and get a 5:45 seating for the 6 pm show. You pay a $20 cover charge and they have a limited menu but you come for the show. We had a few drinks and chips and guacamole.
Will Not Ever Come back to This Place again, not like they would care anyway
Very disappointing experience. I was really looking forward to visiting Andy’s Jazz Club, but the service was shockingly unfriendly and rigid. 1. My elderly mum didn’t feel like going in and preferred to wait at the door for me. The man selling

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Andy's Jazz Club & Restaurant Chicago at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Andy's Jazz Club & Restaurant Chicago page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Andy's Jazz Club & Restaurant Chicago to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Andy's Jazz Club & Restaurant Chicago!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
