Doc's Jazz Club

Love it. Went to the Inauguration and I’m thrilled to know that this building is being used to its full purpose. The venue is designed for enjoying great jazz, great drinks, and the menu is equally Devine. I was also impressed by the staff. They provided great service throughout the night. The stage is well positioned, I don’t think there’s a bad seat in the house.

Doc’s jazz club may be new to Houston but not new to USA proven Jazz music and dining experience. We were lucky to attend their soft opening. A great start with excellent potential. I believe it will become a Jazz staple in the Houston music scene. Must experience it for yourself!!

We weren’t able to make it to the Grand Opening but decided to go Tuesday November 18, 2025.. The valet parking is next to club which makes it super convenient.. Upon arrival a lovely staff member opened the door for my daughter and I.. It only took a couple of minutes for us to be escorted to our seats.. My daughter made our reservations for the upper level seating so we used the elevator.., The attendant that accompanied us was friendly, knowledgeable and the table that my daughter selected was absolutely amazing.. The view of the stage was great .. Our lovely server Kimberly was amazing from start to finish.. Always attentive, kind and professional.. The service is amazing across the board.. The servers seem to work as a team with the ultimate goal of delivering great service.. We enjoyed the food and the music.. The Expresso Martini 🍸 was Excellent.. I will add delicious to my statement.. What I did notice however is that their cocktail glasses are very small.. I am 74 years old, I always have only 1 Cocktail when I’m out socially.. I couldn’t figure it out at first but I did order another Expresso Martini and that is when I focused on the cocktail glass size (smaller than other restaurants/establishments).. My daughter ordered Margaritas and she said they were good.. Small glasses, my daughter had 3 drinks.. Dijon Shrimp was our appetizer . The shrimp were large and cooked to perfection., The grilled sourdough bread was the delicious lemon butter sauce was great. We both ordered the Baked Half Chicken.. My daughter ordered her chicken with Brussel Sprouts and my side dish with French Fried.. The plate presentation was beautiful.. Chicken was moist and delicious.. The brussel sprouts were amazing.. The chicken is not well seasoned.. I was able to detect that I would need salt and pepper with my meal when I saw the chicken served at the table next to ours.. Any request during our visit was met with a willingness for our dining experience to be great.. I am always looking for a celebration.. My grandson was just promoted in the Navy so I decided to order a dessert which we rarely ever do., I ordered the Coconut Pistachio Tiramisu.. As with everything else it was Delicious.. We absolutely enjoyed the music, the food and the amazing service.. Thank you management for your welcome and hospitality.. Thank you Kimberly for making our dining experience Five Stars ⭐️

Attended soft opening this week. Excellent new club. Very nice food & drink menu. Service was attentive & perfect. Music was awesome, sounds system was great. Thanks to ownership in investing in more live music for Houston!

I went to Doc’s on their opening night and it honestly exceeded my expectations. The band was led by Doc Watkins, and they were incredible. Real, lively jazz with so much talent on stage — it set the tone for the whole night and made the place feel instantly warm and fun. Service was friendly and relaxed in the best way. Everyone seemed genuinely happy to be there, which added so much to the atmosphere. The building itself brings a lot of charm too. Doc’s is located inside the historic Tower Theatre on Westheimer, a revamped 1930s movie theater . You can still feel touches of its old character, and it gives the club such a unique, nostalgic feel. Food and drinks were another pleasant surprise. I tend to eat on the healthier side and still found plenty of great options. I had the tuna tartare, the Brussels sprouts, and the chicken. All three were genuinely delicious — the tartare was very fresh, the Brussels sprouts were perfectly cooked, and the chicken came with a green-goddess-style dressing that brought the whole dish together. I tried both a cocktail and a mocktail too. The mocktail was thoughtfully made, not an afterthought like at many places, and the espresso martini was perfectly balanced.

A remarkable experience like no other! Everyone in the Houston area needs to witness the beauty and magic that Doc's brings...It's something that you will cherish and fond over, just like listening to a new song that you can't get enough of on repeat. The service from the staff was amazing, friendly, and attentive from beginning to end that elevated the experience from ordinary to extraordinary, just like you're part of a big family. In addition, the food was something to love with every bite until every piece, and sauce was gone from the plate, not to mention the amazing house cocktails and the selection of wine that only enhanced the overall the night even further. To top everything of the night...The live performance by the many talented and gifted individuals on the big stage of the place was something like no other, and really taking you to somewhere special and grand. Every single component of Doc's had a part to play on bring everything together...Just like the music notes of a masterpiece performance. I can't wait to go it again in the future, and I'm already planning on taking my girlfriend from overseas to get the full Houston experience...Starting with Doc's, the best Jazz Club ever!

Went to the soft opening, food was great and they have wide variety of cocktails !! Can’t wait to go back ! IT NEEDS TO BE A REQUIREMENT TO HAVE WOODY WITT AND HIS BAND EVERY MONTH!

This is exactly what Houston needed. Amazing place, great atmosphere and food. Drinks are delicious. Feels like you’re in New York. Dress up for sure!
