Grab your wife or couple and enjoy a romantic moment with good drinks. Yes it's inside the hotel , no door from outside.

David Bagwell

Be sure to try Love Letters to New Orleans. It may seem like a girly drink on the front end, but the flavor combinations make an excellent drink. The bar staff are very friendly .

Sandy J

Gerald French and the Original Tuxedo Jazz Band is so worth visiting the Jazz Playhouse for. In between sets go check out the “secret courtyard garden ” within the hotel .

Melania Spagnoli

Perfect place to enjoy Jazz in NOLA! No cover, great live music and drinks !

Priya Tungrus

Nice upscale jazz . No cover on a Wednesday - just minimum one drink per set (2 sets total). There is a pillar in the middle of the room so arrive early for good seats.

Regions Bank

Best thing about Bourbon Street! Classy , intimate and weekend shows are free, but drinks are not. Leave your cash safe at home or the hotel and use your Regions Visa CheckCard to enjoy the show.

Anne Collins Smith

Experiencing Leon "Kid Chocolate " Brown & his wonderful quartet on Friday nights from 8 - 12 is the best way to spend a sultry Friday night in New Orleans.

Kim Maul

Great for live music and drinks

Bahar Konak

Loved, loved, loved. Amazing music in a classy atmosphere !

Nate Tinner

This cookies and milk is not to be trifled with. Virgin Pomango is the goods, too, if not a bit small.

Emily Andino

Fantastic live jazz in a classy atmosphere . Friendly service . Expensive but well worth the price.

Larry Meador

No go-cups on way in - just learned what those were today - lights behind bar are way cool - really nice place to be "on Bourbon Street"

Get here early to get a good seat There is a large column in te middle of the room. Blocks part of the stage if you sit in the wrong place.

Stefan Babich

Good jazz and good atmosphere -saw James River there and was awesome music .

Irvin Mayfield's set on Wednesdays is worth the price admission.

NOLA Nites Concierge | Meloney Smith

We love the free happy hour concerts (Wed.-Fri.) at Irvin Mayfield’s Jazz Playhouse.

Matthew Kratz

Grat atmosphere, food and service but the band we saw pushed giving money to them too much and took too many breaks

Daniel Gaiman

Go here on Wednesday night to have what will probably be the best live jazz/blues experience of your life.

Chantay Leonard

Have the bartender make you a Pimms Cup
