"What a wonderful discovery! Inside the Deutsche Bank building that has a beautiful shopping experience located on the 5th floor is a Jazz Club, a part of Lincoln Center. Dizzy’s could be described as a supper club or a drink and listen club or a “just relish in a perfect ambiance for enjoying great music” club. My evening was incredibly special. The billing? It was Steven Feifke Big Band with Blue Lou Marini. First, I learned that Lou Marini was a well known saxophonist. ( Louis Eugene Marini Jr. (born May 13, 1945), known as "Blue Lou" Marini, is an American saxophonist, arranger, and composer. He is best known for his work in jazz, rock, blues, and soul music, as well as his association with The Blues Brothers.) There you have it! Greatness! Steven Feifke. I didn’t know this either. Steven Feifke (born June 21, 1991) is an American jazz pianist, composer, orchestrator, and arranger. In 2023, Feifke became the youngest musician to win The Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble at The 65th Annual Grammy Awards. Wow! And the band that night had 18 fantastic musicians. They delighted the audience with brass from saxophones, trumpets, trombones, flutes, clarinets with drums, guitar, bass fiddle, piano from Steven Feilke and solo from Lou Marini. I have difficulty deriving the appropriate words to give the group their due. It was magnificent. The seating was well designed. Menu really nice; great gumbo. Service right on cue. We will be back next year! The evening was"

"Pasta tasted as if it was blanched in tomato water and crab cakes were too salty. Great jazz band though, Recommend you only come for drinks and music"

"Owens' performance, I would say she is now a full-blown jazz enthusiast. It was worth it to come here just to see her eyes glued on the band for the entire hour+ performance. She could not get enough of the incredible live music, solos, improvising, etc. What an experience for us both. I loved the music just as much, but had never been to Dizzy's. The backdrop view of Central Park, Columbus Circle, and the NYC skyline"

"The jazz music at Dizzy’s is always very good. The concert hall, dining room is tastefully decorated. The service is friendly and efficient. An area of improvement is the food. My wife and I have been to Dizzy’s twice and found the food just okay. In the most recent visit we ordered the crab cakes and the fried chicken. The crab cakes were tasty, but the fried chicken was bland and dry."

"My Fiancée and I saw ETIENNE CHARLES CREOLE ORCHESTRA. That all Star Band was simply spellbinding. We had front row seats, we can see the band up close and a glimpse of the NYC lights. We met Etienne Charles after the show. He is a cool down to earth gentleman. The music sound has an eclectic, sophisticated sound. We purchased a CD to enjoy E.T.C.O. music at home. The only con is the starter menu, I didn’t see an appetizer I wanted to try. My fiancée ordered the sausage trio. The entrée was good. We shared a steak ( for 2 ) collard greens, and mac & cheese. Dizzy club is a romantic venue. You won’t be disappointed."
