Mr. Tipple's Jazz Club

"If you’re looking for that rare combination of jazz and dim sum, there’s no better place than Mr. Tipple’s Jazz Club. The jazz acts at this Civic Center bar take their cue from the speakeasy era, performing in flapper dresses and sports coats. Order some serviceable dim sum like shrimp siu mai, chicken wontons topped with sichuan chili oil, and XLB while you listen. Walk-ins are welcome, but you should make a reservation on weekends." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong

"Live music is the focal point at Mr. Tipple’s Recording Studio, where you can dance to pianists, vocalists, and jazz bands Wednesdays through Saturdays with an accompanying menu of savory bar snacks and mixed drinks. See the full schedule here; both reservations and walk-ins are allowed." - Zoë Bernard, Paolo Bicchieri

"Live music may seem too loud for a first date, but the upbeat jazz (no cover) and lively scene at Mr. Tipples will work in your favor in this case. Over snacks and expert cocktails from the Maven team you can either have such a good time that you end up dancing, or be grateful for the music to fill the space if conversation falls silent." - Eater Staff
