Experience of a Legendary New York Jazz Club

Blue LLama is about as close as you get here to an experience of a legendary New York jazz club like the Blue Note ... Everything about our experience here was five stars. From the incredible food to the beautiful decor to the fantastic musical performance and the amazing waitstaff.

Just Getting Started

The best Jazz Club around and they're just getting started. The venue is perfect, the menu is electrifying and tasty. The atmosphere is exciting, hip, and makes you feel like you belong. James our server was the best and super informative yet charming. You will not want to leave.

Worth the Drive

The executive chef, Louis Goral, is an innovator whose skills alone would make it worth the drive from Toledo ... At the Blue LLama, the food is as interesting, delicious, and satisfying as the smoothest jazz.
