Minton's Playhouse

Great drinks and music - would definitely come again for those - but for some reason there is a 20% gratuity added on top of the 25 dollar cover charge. Wouldn't mind the cover - but using it to get extra gratuity? Not sure if this a standard practice but not a fan regardless.

Delicious food and amazing entertainment. What more can 1 ask for. I was fortunate enough to celebrate my 50th birthday here and Milton's did not disappoint. My guess and myself cannot wait to return.

One of the absolute best spots for great live jazz in the country! The artists and food are consistently top notch! Whenever I visit NYC, I always make sure to visit Minton’s at least twice.

The music was absolutely incredible. We really loved it! Also, the crowd was fun and lively. Great spot! However, service and food is mediocre at best. Also, it was very difficult to find info on fees on their website. I wrote to confirm and they were opaque about it and didn’t fully answer. There is a $40 min order amount, plus a $20 donation, which we didn’t find out until we arrived (despite writing two emails). We are always happy to support artists, music, and cultural institutions, but they should just be transparent about their prices and respond when people ask!

Third time visiting Mintons over the years. The music was good and my drink was delicious. However, the quality of the food and service has declined. My steak was medium but seemed tough and old. I switched to the salmon which lacked flavor. They also put the vegetables that I had with my steak dinner back on the plate. For a restaurant of this caliber, I would expect attention to details: linens were crushed and needed to be ironed and the fake flowers need to go.
