  Unbelievable ambiance! This gem is tucked away in Saint Germain des Près. Dinner and live jazz is a wonderful way to spend an evening! Dark and cozy, white tablecloths, red candles and writing all over the walls/posters plastered on the ceilings. It is a great experience.

  Wow. Just wow. Let's start by saying we checked on yelp for their DAILY hours before walking over (they had great reviews but were 2.5 miles from our hotel but since we figured it was great on yelp it would be worth it)
  and it said it closed on a Tuesday June 18th at 1:00am so we figured this was a great after bar with amazing live music and good company.
  We were WRONG! We walk in and they say they are closed at 11:30pm. We showed our server that their yelp hours shows that they close at 1am and he said quote in-quote "no you're wrong we close at midnight" okay no matter we figured we would have a quick drink and be on our way. Our SERVERS (multiple) were beyond rude to us and they had about 15 people in there (all French) that we're ordering drinks and enjoying this place.
  
  Okay so our server "allows" us into their bar and then hits us with a cover charge and says he needs to be home soon he has a family he needs to take care of?!?!?!?? We told him how we felt about the cover charge and that it clearly says on yelp they close at 1am and he said pay or leave.
  I'm sorry but this is SO unprofessional and we felt taken advantage of.  Everyone clearly wanted to leave early and we walked all this way for a place that has "great reviews" on yelp.
  
  So that being said TOURISTS beware!!!! This place is NOT worth it and you should spend your TIME and MONEY elsewhere!!!

  We were hanging out in the area and decided to check this place out. If you are having dinner there is no cover charge but since we weren't hungry we paid the cover (12£) per person.
  They sat us down by the band which was great. We ordered a bottle of wine and really enjoyed the music.
  The band was great played different styles of jazz which was great since I'm not a fan of the slow jams.
  The place is super cozy and romantic. Perfect place for a date or come with friends.
  Upstairs they have more seating and it seemed more intimate.

  Great Jazz with a Duke Ellington flavor.  We sat right next to the band but still could carry on a conversation.  Food was good, but it was the ambiance that made it special.

  I will write my review in English, Français, & Español:
  
  I cannot say how much in love I am with this jazz club! Caroline made us feel so welcome and we came just in time for the piano/stand up bass performance. It was absolutely beautiful. I had a glass of champagne and gave the pianist song recommendations (as he requested). I felt so in love with Paris in that moment. I hope to come back for a meal sometime. Merci beaucoup Caroline! Tu est belle!!
  
  Je ne peux pas dire combien je suis amoureux de ce club de jazz! Caroline nous a très bien accueillis et nous sommes arrivés juste à temps pour la performance piano / contrebasse. C'était absolument magnifique. J'avais un verre de champagne et donnais des recommandations au pianiste (comme il l'avait demandé). Je me suis senti tellement amoureux de Paris en ce moment. J'espère revenir pour un repas un jour. Merci beaucoup Caroline! Tu est belle !!
  
  ¡No puedo decir cuánto estoy enamorado de este club de jazz! Caroline nos hizo sentir muy bienvenidos y llegamos justo a tiempo para la interpretación de piano / stand up bass.

Espero volver para una comida alguna vez. Merci beaucoup caroline! Tu est belle !!
