If you're looking for a cozy spot to hear jazz then you have to visit Upstairs. Make sure to make a reservation which was easy online. & then get ready for a very intimate jazz club with great food. & of course great drinks. I sat at the bar & had a great time with the server while listening to a really good jazz sextet playing mostly original music.
Music almost every night a week I think….& always changing.
A very satisfying jazz club evening!View more

My wife & I have been going to the Upstairs Jazz Bar & have enjoyed the food, ambience & great jazz for many years. The intimate atmosphere of this iconic jazz club is perfectly suited for both traditional & modern jazz bands to play in. Excellent food & a great bar along with great service contribute to very pleasant & enriching dinner & jazz evenings!
Joel Giberovitch is an outstanding owner & host who has been serving the Montreal jazz community for over 30 years! Upstairs is deservedly a regular venue in the Montreal Jazz Festival.View more
I was able to get a last minute single seat to an amazing performance by Steve Turre's band. It was a front row seat! Not only was the band great, the ambiance was perfect & the staff were some of the nicest I have ever encountered. This is the perfect spot to hear jazz! Thank you!!View more

Fantastic little cozy venue for both music, drinks & dining! Saw/heard jazz singer Laura Anglade & her 3 person band there last night & she/they were the highlight for me, of this year's Montréal Jazz Festival!View more

Great venue for jazz in Montreal. Intimate & great soundView more
Service was excellent. We were greeted at the door, reservation confirmed & shown to our seats. The menu had great choices & i selected the fish & chips. Drinks & food arrived promptly, & it tasted great. I was hoping for a good show & it far exceeded my expectations. David Marino & the 3 jazz players provided a wonderful evening. I will definitely return.View more

Delicious food & drinks! Service was outstanding including greetings from Joel. Great to be there on the 30 year anniversary & of course listen to Kenny Werner. Highly recommend Upstairs Jazz Bar!View more
Célébrant son 30e anniversaire hier le 11 avril, ce bar est une institution, un incontournable de la scène jazz montréalaise. De la bouche de son proprio, c'est un endroit où les artistes & leur public échangent art & passion. La salle est intimiste, les musiciens généreux & le staff accueillant. Y venir une fois, c'est aussi vouloir y revenir.View more
Je pense que le Upstairs est plus qu'un resto-bar. C'est une expérience unique d'ambiance & de vrai jazz que je n'ai pas trouvé ailleurs au Canada. C'est mon Numéro Un sur ma liste de sortie musicale.View more
Great little jazz club with amazing food. Ticket cost ($15) is added to the bill for those with dinner reservations. Had the'Cabo' aubergine appetizer &'Vivaneau' red snapper, both were incredible! & the music was amazing. Will definitely be back.View more

Awesome jazz spot with a great vibe & incredible food. Recommend the Paloma & Billie's Holliday for drinks.View more
Chicken slightly dry, but the food was otherwise great & the jazz made up for it!View more
We thoroughly enjoyed the performance. The singer had an incredible voice, & her wit & humor added a delightful touch. The band complemented her energy perfectly. The food was also excellent. However, if you're planning a reunion or a first date, this bar might not be the ideal spot unless you're planning to spend some time there before or after the show. We initially thought it was a restaurant with jazz music enhancing the experience, but it turns out it's more of a performance venue. We were advised to enjoy the show with minimal interaction & to communicate quietly.View more
Great music, jazz was really nice & entertaining.
The place is very cosy, but be aware the tables are very tightly placed one next to the other. It feels like you can bump shoulders at any time.
Service is ok. If they actually come to your table, when they actually see you, they are cordial & try their help. They brought the bill even before asking if we wanted anything else. That was quite a minus.
Food is ok, nothing outstanding. Don't expect too much.
In general it's a good place. They are 4/5 due to the jazz & the ambience.
I'd return there.View more
Souper concert pour ma soirée d'anniversaire le 22 février passé.
Une vraie découverte. Super spectacle, nourriture très bonne (entrée & plat principal!!) & service super efficace.
Une ambiance authentique pour les amoureux du jazz ou de ceux qui veulent en faire l'expérience pour la première fois!!View more
