Great little spot for live music. Good food and outside seating as well. I especially love this as a happy hour spot. Expect to pay $5 cover if you’re there during the shows.
Had a wonderful time with the service and entertainment of jazz and vocalist performances! Can’t wait to go again

We came here for a jazz brunch with some of our friends who live in Kansas City, and it did not disappoint. The food and music were both awesome. It's a small space for a jazz band, so it was super loud, but we loved it. A very fun Kansas City experience!
The Phoenix didn’t disappoint! Local artist Nikki White who appears most Thursdays is a treat and provides great entertainment. Highly recommend.
Came here for Saturday brunch 10am-2pm and listened to Alex Abramovitz and His
Swing'n Kansas City Jazz Band. Amazing band which took request from a birthday Party and performed to perfection. My server Abby made a stiff awesome old fashion. Must come if you visit Kansas City! Support the infrastructure which at least pay musicians to perform live! Came back and enjoyed another round of hospitality, live music and drinks by lovely bartender Miranda. Easy transportation by free Kansas City Street car, stop at North Loop, then walk cross parking lots.
It's always a great time here! From the musicians to wait the staff and the bartenders. Big shout out to the Manager Cola also.
The Phoenix is one of those places that has it all. Great food (try molten tenders or French dip), amazing cocktails (best Old Fashioned in KC) and some historic vibes. My favorite time to come is on Tuesdays when Talya is the singer. Fun times!
Brunch is definitely a fun time to go, but can be super busy. We were able to snag a table in the back where it was dimly lit. Food was good and the service was okay, but the live music really makes it worth going to. If you like jazz you must try this place out.
Saturday night, after midnight and everyone (including management) not pleased that the joint is not hoppin...your loss (if you're reading) my gain, crazy BMW 😜 playing and you missed it! Come every Saturday night, a superb vibe, Anataya is superb, probably all, come, you'll miss it otherwise!
This is an awesome place to go. I will state though that the food/menu is not as good as it was pre Covid-19. On my last visit, the food seemed previously frozen. Food was good, not great. The atmosphere is worth going.
