| "Nighttown - One of the 25 Restaurants Cleveland Can't Live Without"
- Scene Magazine
"The closest thing Cleveland has to an Algonquin Round Table is Nighttown, a New York-style supper club that attracts a most deliciously diverse clientele. Named by Down Beat magazine as one of the world's "100 Great Jazz Clubs," Nighttown draws the serious music fans for sure. But there is far more to the joint than hot licks and cool chords. The menu is decidedly old-school but well-executed, with dishes like whole artichokes, roast duck, trout amandine and Dublin Lawyer ruling the roost. The comfortably appointed dining rooms, bar and patio burble with conversation as doctors, professors, writers, artists and students exchange bon mots over bouron and beer. It's this rare triple identity - as serious restaurant, inspired jazz club, and especially as living room to an intellectual community - that makes people continue to flock to "The Top of the Hill."
"Best Jazz Club"
- Scene Magazine
"Nighttown has been the anchor of Cleveland's jazz scene since 1965, and it's only grown smoother with age. Acts like Benny Green, Eliane Elias, Kurt Elling, Joe Lovano and Brad Mehldau have made Nighttown one of Down Beat's 100 Best Jazz Clubs in the World. There's live music four nights a week (or more) year-round, and you can listen from any of its cozy settings: a warm, welcoming bar area, a casual lounge, an intimate private dining room, an all-weather outdoor area, and a more formal main dining room. No matter where you sit, you'll hear world-class music and, we predict, feel 20 times cooler than you really are."
"Best Jazz Club"
- Scene Magazine
"Besides boasting
the best-sounding live music room in all of Cleveland, Nighttown is also one of the few places in the entire nation that still treats aging jazz legends like the icons they are. But it's not about the old-school here; plenty of young jazz stars stop in on their way up the ladder."
