A suitably refined little club for a suitably refined part of Playa, this venue encased in the Cine Teatro Miramar and affiliated with government agency ARTex is dedicated mainly to live jazz, although other elements (such as funk) are sometimes thrown into the mix. Things usually get jamming at 9pm-ish and there’s cheap food.
