I don't mind paying high price for extraordinary food, but that is not what we received. We ordered the calamari, which was still kind of white. the fried green tomatoes looked as though they were fried crispy, golden and brown, but the tomatoes were hard and the sauce that it comes with looked as though it was just painted on with a paintbrush, could've used some more sauce the Korean chicken was tough. So in my opinion, a great place to go just make sure you eat first.

Blue LLama Jazz Club bas been on our list of places to check out for quite a while. We had heard…read moregood things about it. We made reservations Friday night for the 7:00PM show. They have two performances 7:00 PM & 8:30 PM. The interior decor is modern with the lounge vibe, kind of what you would expect for a Jazz Club. We were pleasantly greeted by the Hostess when we arrived, checked in and were taken to our table. Our server Julia, promptly greeted us and took our cocktail order. Great craft cocktails! They have a nice diverse menu with many options to choose from. We opted to go for small plates and had the Joey D's Killer Cornbread; sweet potato, with chipotle maple butter. It is served warm of course and it was very, very good. We also ordered the Fried Green Tomatoes, with pimento cheese. They were nicely battered and had great taste and flavor. The pimento cheese was a nice accompaniment. Lastly, we ordered the Apricot-Prosciutto Flatbread with sage-ricotta, burrata and arugula. The only thing we did not care for was the flatbread, it was not browned or crispy like most flatbreads dishes we have had, cooked in a pizza oven. Its consistency was doughy. All the other ingredients on it were good, just not the flatbread itself. The Jazz for the evening was performed by the Noah Hogan Quartet and they were fantastic. Would definitely go see them again. Overall a great experience. Would definitely recommend checking them out. There is a $25 per person cover charge. Reasonable for such a nice club.

I ordered their famous long island iced tea and it was super strong. We had to wait awhile for the music to start back up again because it seemed like they had just gone on break when we got there. We only stayed for a few songs when they started to play again since we were getting pretty tired. The guys in the band were a lot of fun, and one of the singers was really good at interacting with the small crowd that night. I laughed so much when he called a few men (including my bf) to go up and dance with him.

Well this was actually my first time walking into this establishment the vibes and this place was…read moreamazing, but far as the food it was not it, but I can almost guess why, I notice this place has a old crowd which was nice, but the food was flavorless , I had fried turkey chop which was cook very well with no favor , blackeye peas with no favor at all, the lack of seasoning on the food completely kill the meal, it's like the cook is telling you to add your own seasoning, which that's ok as well, but salt and pepper ain't going to cut it , when it come to seasoning meat it's a must to seasoning meat , I mean the crust on the chips was flavorless , the meat under the crust was flavorless , the black eye peas definitely was a failed attempt, but I can say all the food had potential it just lacked seasoning , the food was screaming for it , my wife had catfish it was fried well , but once again no seasoning but garlic , the cook need to seasoning his food , alittle Cajun blend would of made that fish pop , I never had greens that's overly smoked favor , which had potential but lacked and finally yams , all the right elements it need it , but wasn't sweet , would good but for the vibes yes, but food may not, I think owner need a tasting to understand what the cook is truly lacking .

We got there at 7pm and asked if there was a cover charge. The hostess at the door said "no this…read morethe perfect time to get here. The cover charge starts when you get here after 8pm." When the bill came it had two $25.00 cover charges($50) We explained to our waitress what was told to us when we got there and she said everyone has to pay a cover charge if you are still there at 8pm. This is very misleading, frustrating, and dishonest. And there was also a service on the bill of $15.00. It didn't say tip or gratuity but service fee!!! There was also a place on the bill to write your tip on. What is going on?? I haven't been there in years and I will never go back.

I can't say enough good things about this place. Starting in February of this year 2026 I had been…read moretalking with Calvin the manager about throwing my lovely wife a surprise 70th birthday dinner for her family. I told Calvin that I originally thought that there would be about 30 of us and I would like to arrive at 5 and leave by 7. Calvin was very patient with me, he kept saying, I've got you brother. Over several conversations, and months of planning it was decided that they would actually open up one hour earlier that day in order to get us in by 4, and out by 6. The jazz band starts playing at 7. Calvin suggested that we would want to be out of there before the music started. My wives mother once worked there in the 60's. Calvin said that we were like family. Believe me, during our whole time there, we felt like family. Calvin and his mother (Jeanetta) greeted us & our family as everyone arrived. They promptly seated us and began to take our order. Calvin kept saying, I told you that I had you brother, and they certainly did. The food was excellent as one would expect from a 5-star restaurant. The deserts were as delicious as the main course was. Several of our family who had never been there said that they would most definitely be back. Thank you, Calvin, Jeanetta, and the entire Cliff Bells staff, for making us feel like family.

Food : what we had was good, price point was a bit high for the quality but it was good. Service. Because there are two show times it creates a bit of a gridlock for the wait staff. We are all arriving and sat with a very small window of time. This can be taxing. As I watched it happening it made me pack my patience a bit and ask my table mates to do the same. That process should be worked out just a little bit more as everyone doesn't come with grace. The show was beautiful. Excellent way to spend Father's Day. My Con : the $25 mandatory fee for live entertainment. When I'm already spending $400 on dinner for my party of 3, tipping my wait staff, paying $40 for parking. Why do I have another $25 fee? If I was just sitting at the bar and not placing a food order then I understand the fee. This fee is why people are opting to not patronize these types of establishments. It's excess for those of us already spending a nice amount.

From the moment we walked through the front door until we left, every single person we encountered made us feel like we were celebrating with family. The hostess welcomed us with anniversary wishes, our server was outstanding, the bus staff wished us well, and everyone in between made the evening feel special. It's rare to find a restaurant where the entire team is so genuinely engaged. The atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for. The lighting was warm and inviting, the room had a wonderful energy, and it struck that perfect balance between elegant and comfortable. We noticed several other couples celebrating anniversaries, and before the evening got underway, each one was recognized. It was such a classy touch. The food was terrific. We started with the potato soup, and it was one of the best we've had. I ordered the pork schnitzel, which was excellent, and Nancy's fish entrée was every bit as good. The champagne was generously poured, everything arrived perfectly prepared, and every course reminded us why people rave about this place. The funny thing is, we skipped dessert...and spent the drive home wishing we hadn't! We drove from the other side of town, and I'd make that trip again in a heartbeat. Great food, impeccable service, wonderful ambiance, and an evening we'll remember for a long time. If you're looking for a place to celebrate an anniversary or any special occasion, I can't recommend the Dirty Dog Jazz Café highly enough. Thank you to everyone who made our 33rd anniversary such a memorable one.

The most important thing to know is that everything Webers is awesome, fantastic, top-drawer, and always dependable. What I like about The Habitat is its relaxed atmosphere versus the quieter dining experience of Weber's Restaurant, its stage for live evening performances, its signature drink menu (check out the Aviation), and its sophisticated energy. You can order most (maybe all) the same food that's on the Weber's Restaurant menu. The table service at The Habitat is equally as good as the staff at Weber's Restaurant, so don't feel like you're missing out. The two venues offer uniquely different dining and atmosphere experiences.

On arrival, the hosts were prompt to greet our group and assist us with sitting. I will say the kitchen moves quickly. This is excellent especially if you come before a game or concert. The setting is modern with some Motown favorites! They do have the main dining area and bar with seating as well as a back dining and bar area. There are an assortment of drinks - kool aids to alcoholic beverages as well as assortment of entrées. All dishes that came out looked delicious. At the table we started with the deep fried deviled eggs and fried tomatoes- wonderful and unique dishes. We had an assortment of dishes from the chicken tenders, chicken sandwich, chicken and waffles, fish nuggets and burger. The chicken and waffle was divine! The sandwich and chicken and waffle are good to share- portions are a nice size. We tried a variety of sides the yams, rice and beans, fries, collard greens, and cornbread muffins. I will say personally some items were too sweet or salty for me but others enjoyed. When feeling in the mood for southern dish, I'd check this place out.
