by Christal Falci on As I'm completely ignorant regarding jazz, I'm not going to discuss the quality of music at all other than simply saying that to my uneducated ears, the band was good and I enjoyed it. Accordingly, the three stars refers to everything except the music itself. Smoke has a cool atmosphere. It is very intimate, which is a plus, without feeling crowded. Of course, the night I was there it wasn't completely full, so it might feel cramped if there were a lot of people there. Because it's small, most of the seats are quite choice, but there is a pole on one side of the stage, obscuring my view of some of the performers. I felt the food was actually quite solid. Nothing crazy, nothing you'd go out of your way to eat, but good. It isn't going to distract you from enjoying the music and that is a positive thing. I had the Pepsi short ribs. Definitely flavorful, but perhaps a bit tough, especially compared to expertly-done short ribs. Because it's such a small place, you have to stay quiet, which is fine. This led to a pretty funny moment when an obnoxiously blond girl basically stood in front of the stage and yelled to a friend sitting at a nearby table in the fashion that you might yell to talk over the music in a club. Difference is, in this club, everyone (other than her, I guess) is there to hear the music. She was promptly and brutally "shushed." Hysterical. She then settled in to checking her blackberry right in front of the stage. Classy. So, I'd hit up Smoke if you're a jazz fan or would like to become a jazz fan. It's a good time and clearly the focus of the place. Because I'm not a huge jazz person myself, I only see myself coming here every once in a while.
by Kristle Laffredo on I have no idea what you people are talking about...I feel like I am taking crazy pills or something. This place sucked. It was a large empty space that had bad music playing and a cover. I will never go back. This is the first time you have failed me rateclubs. Don't let it happen again...dun dun dunnnn
by Johnny C. on If you're looking for a Terra Firma indication of what HELL might be like, look no further than Clooney's Pub. On a bored night Le Crew decided upon a Martini crawl of the Mission. More sober minds would have balked at such a foolhardy idea, but NOT this posse. I don't remember where we started, but know that the booze train broke down at Clooney's after Richie said, "How 'bout that place." Upon entry, an older crowd of regulars turned with that "The enemy has entered our bar!" look on their faces. Laura stepped up and requested a Dirty. The bartender warmed up immediately, making a Dirty with the most dank, brackish Jus de Olive I have ever seen. I don't smoke and felt out of place without a cig or mouth tasting like an ashtray. 3 dirties later we were arguing with some toothless wonders about nothing in particular....Coulda been shoe sizes for all I cared. I was feeling no pain ... in fact I wasn't feeling anything. Two older "gents" tried to fight it out until they realized that they had forgotten what they were fighting over. Crisis averted. Upon exiting Clooney's, one of the crew got in to a fight with her new boytoy. Another screwed up his knee falling off a car while pretending he was Gene Kelly in "Singing in the Rain." Everyone was yelling at the top of their lungs, "Let's go to the 500 Club!!" This place will turn any self respected, tame, law abiding citizen into a gutter dwelling rogue. 3 "Uh-oh Hotdogs" for the closest approximation of Hell since the Sacrifice closed down.
