    The music was great, the service was really good, the atmosphere was also fantastic,however, the food was not very good and overpriced. I was wondering why so many others in the cafe only came for drinks and the concert…now, I know why. We will definitely be back, but not for dinner.

    Great meal and good music! A little too much kitchen noise when sitting in the back.

    The Dirty Dog is a wonderful venue for a night of music, food and libations! We were at the early seating for the Detroit iconic jazz group Straight Ahead. These ladies are on par with any small combo groups I've ever heard (male or female)! Our server, Katy, was excellent and provided on-point food and beverage recommendations. If you're looking for a cozy, intimate evening with great entertainment, The Dirty Dog Jazz Cafe is the place!
