Jazz

1823 W. 39th St.
Kansas City, MO 64111
816-531-5556
The official motto at Jazz is "Laissez les bon temps rouler" -- tres fitting because this loud and boisterous New Orleans-style bar and restaurant is definitely a good time and successfully avoids the usual cheesiness that can come with theme establishments. Jump and jive jazz bands play here six nights a week, and the patrons aren't shy; they'll whoop it up drinking and dancing even when there's no band onstage. All kinds of Kansas Citians hang out at Jazz -- the place has an authentic, rough charm and no-apologies attitude that appeals to (most) people, and the Cajun-Creole food is another huge draw -- chicken à la Mer, oysters and crawfish are served late until the night. Watch it with the Rumrunners, though -- one too many (which would be two) can make even the most seasoned drinker wince at the words "Mardi Gras" the next day.
