This is definitely one of the nicer jazz clubs in the Kansas City Region - bar any. I've frequent this place quit often this year. Indigo hour is my favorite time, and the "Mayor of Vine" is always a great host. Service leaves a lot to be desired. There is one young lady who provides service, one would accept at such an establishment. She has a dark complexion, very attractive, young lady in her early twenties. Sorry, I don't know her name; but, she is the desired server for most patrons. The others will write your orders on napkins, and wonβt use server trays. They act as if itβs beneath them to use server trays or to carry more drinks they have hands. I only think of the revenue lost on lack of drink orders. There is a wide mix of music on tap at the Blue Room. If you like to patronize a Venue that puts the music as the focus; then you will enjoy the Blue Room. Four shows each week with two free shows on Monday and Thursday. Fridays evenings is my choice! Friday and Saturdays are reserved for top local talent and touring artists. Due to the Service, I'd have to give the Blue Room 3 STARS. Please hire additional bar tenders, and bring on a professional wait staff. If they did this, this would be the Venue of Choice for most...
Β Β Β Read moreDrove from Des Moines IA to spend Christmas weekend in KC. Purchased tickets 3 weeks in advance for the 10pm show on 12/23/2023. I arrived 20 minutes prior to the show and i was shocked from the moment I entered. The show was sold out yet while waiting to show my tickets they sold 8 tickets to a group in front of me. Once i entered, it appeared that the folks from the earlier show had remained inside. The place was overcrouded with no room to seat or stand. The place was over its capacity to the point that a fire marshall would have had a field day and shut the place down. The AC was non-existent. Hell was cooler than this place. I waited to see if folks would leave but more people was entering. There was no control at the entrance either as people was just walking in without anyone checking for tickets. I just left and I did not even try to get my money back as upset as I was. I will never go back and I would not recommend this place to anyone. If I could give it a 0...

During intermission, we were taken on a personal tour. "Andre" is amazing. Treated us like VIP! There was standing room only, Andre brought us a table & chairs. Where he put us, gave us an amazing view of the band. He made it his mission to make us feel at home. Eventually, we were lead to the floor directly next to the band (which was totally BAD AZZ!!πΆ). If i you're ever in KANSAS CITY, two thangs ya gotta do: 1) get'cha some barbecue (ask around, the replies i received were pretty consistantπ) & 2) make your way to the BLUE ROOM, be prepared to stay awhileπ... Big ups to the band! Google the website to pick out a venue & get...
