best jazz, worst venue – yoshi's is the bay area jazz monopolist, and the rude staff knows it. yoshi's gets the best acts, but offer the worst experience. preferential treatment is offered if you eat their over-priced, second rate japanese food. drink service is slow and awkward, serving to people crowded in uncomfortable seats, awkwardly arranged. i have witnessed more than one drink go into someone's lap. unlikeley more than a couple will sit together unless very early, which means waiting outside. don't confuse the music ... read more

Smokin' jazz – Great acoustics and view of the performers, as well as a decent a la carte sushi menu and beers on tap. It's more enjoyable if you go with a group or if you don't mind sitting next to strangers. Great date spot!

Excellent Music – I caught Oakland jazz scene legend Pharoah Sanders there one night, and I have to say it was captivating. The acoustics were crisp and the space very comfortable. Once you buy your ticket, they give you reserved sign to place on the seat of your choice. My party of three scored a very comfortable booth with optimal views of the stage. After securing our seats we decided to have dinner at the adjoining restaurant. I've seen a lot of people complain on the site about the food, but I was actually impressed. My... read more
