We had an extremely disappointing and embarrassing experience at Voodoo Lounge. We drove over an…read morehour to Kansas City specifically to see Dolewite, purchased VIP tickets, and paid for a hotel for the night. This was a planned night out that we were genuinely excited about. My husband was removed from the venue for "swaying" a few times on the dance floor. That was it. No aggression, no disruption, no intoxicated behavior, no confrontation. He has severe knee issues and was simply shifting his weight while standing and enjoying the music. Instead of checking in or handling the situation with any kind of discretion or compassion, security immediately escalated it and kicked us out entirely. It was humiliating, unnecessary, and completely ruined our night. We lost our VIP experience, the show we traveled for, and the money spent on tickets and lodging. There was absolutely no attempt to understand the situation or treat us like paying customers. This could have been handled in a respectful way, but it was not. Unfortunately, we will not be returning, and I would caution others that security here seems overly aggressive and unwilling to use basic judgment. A night that was meant to be fun turned into an awful memory. Side note: We did not drive , we took uber to and from hotel. It was an expensive evening-RUINED! Also , I googled voodoo lounge after we got back to hotel and the aggressive behavior seems to be a trend of theirs. Something needs to change. We had a lady directly in front of us thrashing about and spilling her drink ALL OVER THE FLOOR and she was left alone. Made zero sense.

But the dining rooms, histories, and seating are very different. Jimmy's Jigger is a very old historic bar with photographs on the walls about the history of the room. Also they have very comfortable booths. Jazz does not have booths. Jazz has live music some evenings. Jimmy's Jigger does not. Considering the history of Jimmy's Jigger and the comfortable booths, you might think that many diners would prefer Jimmy's Jigger to Jazz. But at present, almost all of the business at Jimmy's Jigger is takeout. When I was there, I was their only dine in customer, but there was a lot of takeout business. I asked why. The server explained that during the pandemic and until very recently, Jimmy's Jigger offered only takeout. Dine in customers had to go next door to Jazz. That works very well for me. I get great service as their only dine in customer. Tonight I ordered a dozen oysters, stuffed mushrooms, and sweet potato fries. I also got two glasses of their house red wine. So don't tell anyone that the son of the original owner of Jimmy's Jigger has bought it, and they now have dine in services. I like having all that service for myself.

Lonnie's was not what I expected at all. Rather than being a jazz restaurant with live music, it's…read moreactually a dinner-and-show experience. To my pleasant surprise, the show was excellent, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout the evening. My boyfriend and I decided to visit on a whim while we were in Kansas City. Parking wasn't too difficult for a Friday night, and we were surprised to learn that the venue is located inside a hotel. Lonnie delivers a fantastic performance with great audience interaction, and his band is incredibly talented. The entertainment was easily the highlight of the evening. As for the food, it was just okay. We both ordered the Beef Wellington, and while it had good flavor, parts of the meat were quite chewy, which was a bit disappointing given the overall cost of the experience. Before visiting, I found information online suggesting dinner would cost around $50-$100 per person, so I anticipated spending under $200 for the two of us. Unfortunately, that estimate was far from accurate. When the bill arrived, it was already over $240, which caught me off guard. There was no pricing visible on the menu, website, or Yelp page, so I had no way of knowing what to expect. To make matters worse, when my card was processed, the final charge ended up being around $350 after additional fees and taxes were added, including tourism and hotel-related charges. I completely understand that quality entertainment comes with a cost, and I have no problem paying for a great dinner-and-show experience. My frustration stems from the lack of transparency. If guests are expected to spend this much, pricing should be clearly disclosed somewhere, and any additional fees should be communicated upfront rather than appearing as a surprise at the end of the night. Overall, if you're looking for a fantastic live show and don't mind a higher price tag, you'll probably enjoy Lonnie's. However, if you're on a budget or simply looking for an upscale dinner with some background music, this may not be the right fit. The entertainment was outstanding, but the lack of pricing transparency left a sour note on an otherwise enjoyable evening.

The bride to be was demanding karaoke but there was no places in the area. Hearing music she assumed she could sing here. When we walked in I was taken back by the vibe of this place. It was all types of people just singing, dancing and having fun. Having never been in a "piano bar" I was unfamiliar with what was going on and just posted up at a table and started ordering drinks. Once I got what was going on I was instantly addicted and frantically looking for a place like this near my home. The performers took song requests and rocked each one. These talented performers made the songs their own while playing the instruments and riffing with the crowd. My group (not my date or me) tried to get on stage, demand songs and even pick a fight with the bouncer but we were handled with grace and even comedy from the performers which is better than we deserved. All in all this place will be one I remember for a long time. I highly recommend checking it out.
