Parallel to a very active passenger and freight train route lies Yoshi's restaurant and Jazz Club. The atmosphere, service, menu, drinks, and dessert are all top notch if you like Japanese food, and even if you don't (like my fiance) there are many other items from which to choose. We go there at least once a year to take in world-class jazz concerts and top notch food. It is truly a pleasure and I highly recommend reservations and giving yourself enough time to sit and eat leisurely while waiting for the concert to begin.

Guests can choose to sit at regular tables, or Japanese style, in a depressed seating arrangement with no shoes. Every morsel I've had here has been a pleasure. We were delighted to watch the Amtrak trains pass by every 15 minutes or so.

Be prepared to pay a hefty tab with three courses and drinks, but it's worth it. Out-of-towners can stay at the Harbour Front Hotel across the road and walk to and from the venue without having to worry about hailing a cab, parking or traffic...aside from the train traffic, that is!

Truly delightful.

A really good place to have dinner & then listen to some jazz.

We arrived at 4:15 pm for dinner in preparation to see a Sunday 6pm show. We were the first seated and I don't think they were quite ready for us. But, as soon as they were, waiters were attentive and did not rush us. The sushi and sushimi were well crafted and quite good.

I have frequented Yoshi's for over 20 years. Still the best. The line-up features the greatest entertainers that exist in the jazz world, the venue is state-of-the-art, roomy (unlike Blue Note in NYC), and food is mouth watering.
