Time Out says

Smoke Jazz Club proves that New York City's golden age of jazz is still swinging. The Upper West Side jazz club recently celebrated its 25th anniversary of offering straight-ahead jazz to New York City. 

Located at the junction of 106th and Broadway (aka Duke Ellington Boulevard), Smoke Jazz Club is one of New York City's premier live music venues. Renowned for offering top-notch programming of accessible, timeless jazz featuring legendary performers, modern masters, and rising stars, Smoke stands apart with its candlelit dining room, stellar acoustics, and classic American cuisine. An evening there offers a chance to hear modern-day jazz legends while dining in a supper club. No matter where you sit in in the intimate space, you'll be close enough to the stage to admire the incredible artistry at work.

Husband and wife co-owners Paul Stache and Molly Sparrow Johnson recently transformed the space, taking on two adjacent storefronts to expand the jazz club, which is now home to an attached lounge as well. The instantly recognizable full-length bar that patrons were used to saddling up to in the original iteration of the venue is now found in the new lounge.

In addition to being a beacon for jazz in Manhattan, Smoke shares music with the world through its Friday night livestreams and acclaimed SMOKE Sessions Records label.
