Oh my! What a hidden gem this place is. The intimacy and acoustics are perfect for a spot to see and hear some quality jazz musicians on the Peninsula. We caught the "Sunday school" jam from 2-5pm and will definitely be coming back for more!

Wonderful jazz trio accompanied accomplished guitarist Pascal Bokar who was also wonderful. Each player was great. And the club had a truly lovely vocalist interspersed in the evening's show. I can't explain how great it was to hear such entertaining live music. Just go here. The mixed drinks were really good and they had a good selection of beers on tap. Decent bar grub too, but really go here for an entertaining live show.

I visited Savanna Jazz for the first time to see Indygo Rhythm Section play on a Sunday evening. What a treat! This is a great venue for Jazz aficionados. There are two spaces: you enter from the street into the bar, where you can sit at a cocktail table and enjoy sports and other events streamed on screen. A second door leads to the back room, where the bands play and there is lounge style seating. This arrangement is great for music lovers, as the bar noise is kept mostly in the front room, and you can enjoy all those great bass solos. As others have noted, there is a distinct European Jazz club ambiance. You can almost imagine that you aren't in Silicon Valley.

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.

Intimate jazz club. Drinks and casual dining. 2 rooms with seating you can hear but not view the band in the dining room which has several large screen televisions. The performance space is comfortable, intimate, warm. The performance area is nearly level with seating and affords good views of the artists. Savanna is the antithesis of large arenas and theaters. An excellent choice for the jazz purists in your life. Casual dress, moderate pricing, discounts for cash ticket purchase.

We were fortunate enough to come here on a Thursday and witness a breathtaking night of Jazz by Stephanie and co! I loved the earnestness of the band and the fact that they could spontaneously switch gears multiple times while going through numerous songs (modern and classical) through the night. Post the show we got the chance to interact with the folks in person and got to know that Stephanie also plays at the club every Tuesday. Definitely gonna visit again ! As for the bar, they've got a great cocktail menu and do have a cover charge of 20 bucks for the performance. We did appreciate the fact that we were charged a prorated amount since we arrived an hour before they shut down . There's ample parking right in front of the bar

Unique live music lounge. Something happens almost every night of the week, but I especially recommend Tuesdays. There is a good selection of drinks and speciality cocktails

Great music jams in a perfectly set up room. You can bring in your own dinner (try the BBQ place down the street!) and order drinks at here magically turning this intimate room into a jazz dinner club. Reminded me of a perfect NYC club.

This old-fashioned jazz club is like medicine for a troubled soul and a weary spirit. Go there and let yourself be submersed in the honest, traditional and intelligent art form that is jazz, and you will emerge refreshed and believing in humanity again. I love this place and its owner, Pascal, and urge everybody to support him and this unique bastion of jazz in the bay area.

Small intimate setting. Audience have chances to interact with the performers. Very friendly atmosphere. Owner Pascal is amazing on the guitar. His fingers just floats over the frets effortlessly.
