Balcony Club

Dallas Observer Best of review: Easily one of the best jazz clubs in Dallas, the Balcony Club is a romantic live jazz venue that never fails to become completely packed when there is music. Next to the historic Lakewood Theatre, Balcony Club serves up notoriously delicious martinis -- try the chocolate martini -- to everyone from business people to students. The booths and cocktail tables are a commodity when the intimate club becomes crowded, but there can be a reasonable turnover for those who have to stand. A destination in Dallas for a drink at the bar and great jazz, the Balcony Club takes the cake any day.
