Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola at Jazz at Lincoln Center is a quintessential New York City experience. It's a music and food lover's paradise. Savor top-notch cuisine as you enjoy premier jazz entertainment. And the casually elegant atmosphere also features a fantastic view of Columbus Circle and Central Park South.
Named for the jazz great, Dizzy Guillespie, the club regularly features name performers that have recently included the Jeff Hamilton Trio, Godwin Lewis and the Todd Marcus Quintet. In June, guests can look forward to the Ali Jackson Trio, Benny Benack, the Jazztopad Festival, Sammy Miller and the Congregation, Etienne Charles and the Kris Allen Album Release.
The dinner service is as distinctive as your favorite music. We stopped by on a Wednesday evening for a fantastic meal before the first set of the Essentially Ellington Alumni band, a 16-piece band comprised of top alumni of Jazz at Lincoln Center's Essentially Ellington program.
The menu at Dizzy's features modern American comfort food with a real flair and a delightful beverage program with a wide array of drinks to sip and savor. From artisanal cocktails to luscious desserts and everything in between, Dizzy's culinary experience is superb. You'll also like that the bar and late night menu is available nightly at all sets. It includes some of Dizzy's favorite starters and a selection of tempting, hearty sandwiches.
Your experience at Dizzy's is sure to please. Go solo, plan a date or gather your group. It's a top spot for Manhattanites and guests of the city.
