THE JAZZ ESTATE
EAST SIDE
Swanky little jazz bar that has been
hosting musicians for over 40 years.
Unassuming and intimate, the space
feels more like a neighborhood cocktail
joint than a national jazz venue. Open
seven nights a week. jazzestate.com

CACTUS CLUB
SOUTHSIDE
This laid-back corner bar may be "rough
around the edges," but it has great sound
