Pretty great. 1) VERY GOOD JAZZ. The owner is a guitarist of some repute, and when he doesnt have an outside band, it seems he rounds up some of his favorite cats and they play. The setting is very intimate and sounds good. There is a $15 per person cover to hang out in the jazz lounge, but if thats too rich you can get an earful at the bar for the price of drinks. 2) Food is OK because they have you order from outside places. Theres the good wood fired pizza place two doors down, theres the great dumpling place on the other side. I really hope they keep this policy. They dont have room for a kitchen and a kitchen is a hassle ! 3) Drinks and beers are only OK, which is why the 4 stars. On the good side, theyre not overpriced, so the price-performance is reasonable. The attitude of the female owner is a bit abrasive, rather like shed honestly prefer if none of us showed up, but Im willing to set that aside for good live music, which has nearly vanished from the peninsula.

Pros: Good Jazz, nice ambiance and cool people Con: Lack luster food, food taste like it came out of a can/ bag and just reheated $10 cover charge even when dinning in cocktails just ok Tried to sneak in a extra $ on my transaction when I clearly wrote the total amount on the check will let my bank know. Great for good live music (Jazz) but eat and maybe even drink elsewhere.

What a great find. The perfect place to hear jazz in San Francisco far from crowds and tourists. We were lucky to come across this place and came back 3 times. Modest cover, very reasonably priced drinks and GREAT music and atmosphere. Thank you Savanna Jazz! If you are staying downtown its a few steps from the BART station at 24th and Mission.

I love this place. Being from Chicago, I was looking for a smaller blues and jazz place to hang out. The vibe is perfect and the talent is great. Reasonable cover - typically around 20ish. Food is great. Staff is wonderful. Would get tickets in advance for special events.

The vibes were cool and the people were friendly. The Jazz was fantastic. We enjoyed the salsa and chips while we sipped our drinks and feasted our ears on the good stuff. We highly recommend this place for an authentic, jazzy experience!

Really a nice club to chill and listen to live Jazz. To my knowledge, no other clubs like it on the mid peninsula. Very nice club atmosphere in the bar and lounge. Full bar and some good bar food. Live music seven nights a week.

Hot, cramped, and lousy food. We were there for the music and it wasnt properly air conditioned, so it was like watching a band in a sauna all night. Rude management, too.

Owner is very knowledgeable about jazz history and a conversation with him is lik being dropped into the past. Hes an amazing historian. Great club, amazing atmosphere.

Amazing place for the Jazz lovers. I was staying in San Carlos for two weeks and went to Savanna Jazz 4 times. Bartender is really nice and the music is really good.

Great live jazz music, paid $10 cover on a Saturday night but well worth it. Easy going atmosphere and great service.

Savana Jazz is dead and gone. Replaced by some vapid restaurant.
