They also made a real effort to connect with the crowd, which feels more rare these days.

Would absolutely recommend checking this band out!

3.5 stars - Over the weekend, we attended one of Park Hyatts Jazz in the Park Concert Series where…read morethey had Mindi Abair (July 6), Peter White (July 13), Hiroshima (July 20) in attendance; and this weekend, Euge Groove is scheduled. While we would've liked to see them all, the only date that worked for us was when Hiroshima was playing. My husband saw them perform in the 90's and was really excited to see them again. The cost for tickets were $75 per person and the venue is situated outdoors on the grounds of the Park Hyatt, Aviara. If you're familiar with this hotel, it's not on the main level, it's down below in the large grassy area near the tennis courts and along the golf course. It's a very intimate venue in very scenic surroundings. They have tables set up for those that want to wine and dine but they also have several rows of chairs set up near the stage for those there for the entertainment. While these jazz concerts have dated back to when this Park Hyatt was a Four Seasons property, this was our first time attending. We went with another couple and decided to make it a date night so we planned to have dinner and drinks. For dinner, it was $25 per person and cocktails were $10 each--or you could order a full bottle of wine and/or champagne at various prices. For food options, you can choose from 1 of the 3 different food stations featuring dishes from each of their restaurants at the hotel; Argyle Steakhouse, Vivace and the California Bistro. Menu selection was: Argyle Steakhouse --Mixed Grill of California Natural Brandt Farm Beef Top Sirloin, Garlic Chicken and Sausage served with Chimichurri, BBQ Sauce, Charred Tomato Salsa or Chipotle-Lime Aioli --Summer Corn and Tomato Salad --Root Beer Baked Beans --Double Fudge Ice Cream Sandwich Cookies Vivace --Wood Fire Oven Flat Bread with House Made Mozzarella, Pesto and Cherry Tomato Salad --Apricot and Raspberry Almond Cake, Panna Cotta Cream California Bistro --Smoked Chicken Lollipops with Cilantro Lime Sauce --Zucchini and Grilled Tinkerbell Pepper Salad --Peach and Macadamia Nut Tart With our group, we had a one of everything and first off, we were terribly disappointed with the serving size of the plates. For $25, it WAS NOT WORTH the money! I've been really good about portioning by protein to 3-4 oz when I cook at home but this was much smaller than that. They were very stingy with everything. I selected the dinner from Argyle and rather than going with the red meat and sausage, I requested an all chicken plate. I got 3 small slices of chicken a small scoop of the corn salad and an even smaller scoop of the beans. My friends who got the full meat and chicken combo, received 2 slices of the sirloin, 2 slices of chicken and 2 slices of the sausage. Clearly a lot more than my 3 small slices of the end of a chicken breast so while still small, inconsistent to what I received (3 small slices of chicken). As far as the entertainment, I would give Hiroshima a solid 4 stars. They were great and their guest vocalist Terry Steele was an amazing surprise. I'm a Luther Vandross fan and he brought a little Luther back to life with his powerful, soaring voice. Combined with Hiroshima's jazz fusion, it worked wonderfully. We thoroughly enjoyed the show. I would definitely come back to future shows at the Aviara Jazz in the Park but would not recommend paying $25 for the dinner option. We all ended up going out for a FULL dinner after the show. That's how hungry each of us were a mere 2 hrs after we ate here.

First time visiting the Oside Moose Lodge. Admission is for members and guests only and were graced…read morewith an invite from local friends. There is no cover charge or admission fees. We enjoyed live music from a Rock and Roll band, socialized with good company, and cooled off with drinks that were fairly priced. The atmosphere is good, with cool separate spaces including a poker table, billiards room, outdoor patio, and dance floor. All staff was very friendly and welcoming. Parking can be tricky since the lot is very small and adjacent businesses highly discourage non-business parking. Our friends gave us detailed information on the membership benefits and we are definitely considering. Till the next time, Oside Moose Lodge.

How fun was it to be a qualified guest & on a live music night too! I've never been there before…read morebut had always wanted to see what it was all about. It's in O'side off the 101 and it's a locals staple to its members and sometimes guests. I have some friends that are members and have told me how they enjoyed their time there. I've checked their website previously and have considered joining myself but held off as life just went by. Parking can be tricky because their lot is small & neighboring businesses have their own lots so we found street parking on the other side of the block and walked on over. It's an old lodge and has lots of retro style designs and decor throughout. You get bang for your bucks for quality cocktails and drinks all made by volunteers that work for tips. To my surprise I knew even more people that were already there enjoying community time together. It's fun being with people who vibe as your tribe in commonalities. Knowing these friends frequent the same type of venues and activities that I do makes considering joining even more appealing. My friends all expressed how they have great cause fundraiser events and game nights there. Like trivia and such. Fun! We got to enjoy it on Rock n Roll night and the music was by Reagan "guitar" Williams & band. They definitely Rocked! People danced and socialized well here and everyone looked happy to be there. *I feel like the website could be refreshed and spoofed up a tad more. I can definitely can get on board with places that invest in maintaining betterment of their community and those in need etc. We had a great evening with our friends and being newbie guests to the establishment was much more than we expected. Looking forward to another visit sometime soon.
