Cozy's Bar & Grill, Los Angeles

This is one of the smattering of places in the Valley to see real jazz and blues men (and women) perform their craft. The crowd knows their stuff too, by keeping this fledgling room busy enough to draw bigger names and offer some security to the jazz and blues community. Part restaurant and part pool hall, Cozy's has certainly found its niche in recent years and it's certainly a nice place to be.
