Me and some of my friends had a chance to attend Jane Monheit's concert here a few weeks ago. Coincidentally, it was the first of the summer concert series!

I love the place. SF really needs a dedicated place to host Jazz musicians on a regular basis. The venue itself isn't too big, but not exactly small. It had just the right size for a Jazz concert.

We were seated at the upper level, and the seats were awesome. The seats were separated from each other and there's a small table where we can put our drinks, phone, etc. I'm a pretty wide guy, so having extra arm space was definitely helpful.

The acoustic were also great for a room of that size. We were able to enjoy Jane's beautiful voice to the fullest.

The location itself was pretty convenient. Parking was pretty easy if you come before 6 PM. There are plenty of nice restaurants that are walking distance (Chez Mamas, The Grove, Nojo). A perfect venue to spend a night with your date, or if you just want to hang out with your buddies.
