My girlfriends and I have always enjoyed coming out to 2nd Street Jazz. The enviornment is great, upscale crowd, the drinks are nice and strong and the service is great. ...

A great club with a wide variety of music. Despite the title they play more music than just jazz. They even have some hip hop nights. They have different events each night so you can always find something that interests you.

After reading the other reviews on this Jazz club, I realize that "Disgusted" had an excellent point. I noticed that many of the reviews for this place on other sites were placed on Oct. 6, 2007 and that they all used a lot of the same phrasing, like the place is "like home" or "homey" and that the service is "warm and friendly."

I've never been to this club, but I find it extremely misleading that the owner feels the need to put up many, many fake reviews. If the place was great, he wouldn't need to.

I went to this place recently on a friday night. They have live jazz music, the musicians were great. However, the place is horrible. They were kicking people out of their tables to make room for others. In addition, they were charging for a 'cover charge' to sit at the table, which was not stated anywhere outside. You can walk in, sit down, have a drink. But when you try to leave, they'll throw on a $10 cover for each person, EVEN if you already bought drinks!!! And you see this guy walking around arguing with customers who were not aware of the cover charge. They get sneaky by saying that if you're at the bar or don't sit down, then there's no cover. What a shady establishment.

The most pathetic part about this?? The guy who wrote the positive review "birdlandman" is surely related to this place because this place is legally called "Birdland USA", as shown on my credit card and yahoo.
Do a search on Bird Land USA Inc Los Angeles and you'll find that its the alias for this joint.
ISN'T IT PATHETIC THAT A GUY HAS TO WRITE A POSITIVE REVIEW ABOUT HIS OWN PLACE AND LIE TO CUSTOMERS? STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. I'D RATHER GO TO THE CORNER LIQUOR STORE.

Second Street Jazz, located in the heart of Little Tokyo Los Angeles has some of the best music in town. The staff is warm and friendly, while the music is awesome. What I like about the venue is that it is very intimate. ...
