I will definitely not be going back here, nor would I recommend it to anyone, friend or otherwise. My boyfriend’s steak was terribly prepared, my pasta had something wrong with the sauce where I had to pick out the garnish because it tasted terrible. We ordered the same appetizer and dessert as the table next to us but they got more food than us somehow.
As for the Jazz they were talented but it wasn’t what we expected.
Overpriced and not a good experience

Great cocktails and music! Highly recommend visiting this hidden gem. Go for the jazz. Go for the drinks. Sit at the bar! Go for life!

My partner and I walked in for dinner. We were told it was a $15.00 per person cover charge to sit with the jazz band out the back. I declined and said we weren't interested in the show especially as it was already running, just dinner. We were told sure, we could sit at the bar. I said nah, what's wrong with the empty tables up front? Nothing, so we sat there. Took another 5 minutes for someone to check on us. We ordered the rib eye steak. I'm not sure what the steak was that they served but I can assure you it wasn't rib eye. It was a poor quality cut of fatty meat.
We ate what was edible, which wasn't much. Asked for the bill and went to pay. Their machine wouldn't accept pay waive from either my phone OR the card. I instructed the staff to remove the automatic 22% gratuity as I was not paying a tip for poor food and poor service. Glad I'm a tourist because I would never eat here again or recommend the place to anyone.
Rude, terrible, expensive.

If I had the option to give it 10 stars, I would. What an amazing experience. The vibe, the music and the food were all fabulous. I highly recommend Swing 46!

Our first night of our NYC vacation and this place did not disappoint at all. The band was amazing. The staff was very attentive and gave us great seats so we could see and enjoy the band completely. It was a pretty slow night. We were told it was probably the heat. Not a problem for us. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner which included the Vesper drink (the only pic I have of the food), House Gin & Tonic, Rigatoni and Shrimp, Orechiette Pasta and, of course, NY cheese cake.

If you're looking for a lively and sophisticated night out in the city, then look no further than the jazz swing club with live music and nice interior. From the moment you step inside, you'll be transported to another era, where the cool sound of jazz reigns supreme and the atmosphere is electric.
The interior of the bar is chic and stylish, with a touch of retro charm that adds to the overall ambiance. Speaking of which, the performers are top-notch, and their repertoire spans a wide range of jazz styles, from classic swing to more contemporary takes on the genre.
In terms of drinks, the club has an impressive selection of cocktails, wines, beers, and food, all served by friendly and knowledgeable staff. The prices are reasonable, considering the quality of the drinks and entertainment on offer.
Overall, if you're a fan of jazz music and appreciate a sophisticated yet relaxed atmosphere, then the jazz swing club with live music and nice interior is a must of visit.

Swanky! We enjoyed ourselves for sure. However, this place is for jazz fans! The food was good, the service was great and the talent was amazing. If your seated in the performance area, you need a flashlight to read the menu as the ambiance of this place is dark. There is a $30 musician fee added to your bill. They auto ad your tip, however they were very good to tell you they were adding it. I also noticed that other restaurants in NY also did this. It was an experience for sure. Not sure I would go back but if your into jazz, check it out.

Had such a nice time here on a Friday night! The club has 2 sets of live jazz every day of the week 5:30pm-8:30pm and 9pm-12am, except Mondays, and a nightly swing dancing class at 8:30pm taught by a professional instructor! Even if you have two left feet, you can come and enjoy the old timey New York vibes of this place and music alike. Everyone was dancing and people seemed so happy enjoying the singers and music! Be aware that there is an additional cover charge if you sit and dine in the main jazz room.

I especially love that they have a $50 pre-fixe dinner menu that includes 3 courses of food! I enjoyed the mussels and steak while sipping on the Swing46 cocktail. Be sure to also check out their $65 bottomless brunch menu that includes a brunch starter, entree, drinks and music charge!
