This clubby old-timer represents the very best of downtown Hollywood's golden era. Though the neighborhood has become rough around the edges, this premier supper club manages to book some of the biggest names in contemporary jazz for multi-night stints. The acoustics are great and there really are no bad seats. All ages are welcome.
