"Featured Review"

So this is where all the single men are. Ladies who pop by this well-kept secret of a bar for the 8pm jazz set will hit the jackpot, so long as they shut up when the music starts and actually know who Charlie “Bird” Parker is.

Tucked underneath La Lanterna di Vittoria, a dark, moody bi-level Italian restaurant, Bar Next Door is a hidden gem that’ll only cost you an $8 cover charge and one drink (try the Passion Fruit Champagne Cocktail, or one of the bazillion wines on offer).

Seating is snug in this small room, but that only makes for a
more intimate concert provided by high-caliber jazz
musicians. Weekends get packed with the dessert-and-Dizzy crowd, but jazz enthusiasts are better off coming early for a cozy meal of top-notch thin-crust pizza and snagging
a good table before
the show starts.

"Featured Review"

Slightly larger than a nice sized efficiency apartment, lit by votive candles, and bedecked with dark wood, it would be an understatement to call this subterranean West Village bar intimate. Jazz trios, crammed into a corner of the room near the working fireplace, play seven nights a week from 9pm to 11:30pm, as snuggling couples and self-styled enthnomusicologists lounge on dark leather banquettes while sipping wine or martinis. (There's an exhaustive menu for the former.)

The mahogany, marble-topped bar in the corner, designed by owner Vittorio, is based on an old photo he saw of a New York bar, but the building is the real thing: A historic townhouse, originally built by Aaron Burr, is also home to the upstairs sister restaurant, La Lanterna di Vittorio, which delivers its tasty thin-crust pizzas, salads, and desserts to the bar till 2am.
