Dakota

An absolute MN gem & world-class jazz club. I’ve hit the spots in NYC, so I know how lucky I am to have this room in MPLS & the artists that grace it. There’s a reason Prince hung out here regularly ✨

We've been to the Dakota a couple of times in the past but this year we've been three times. We've seen Sting and the Police, Candy-Oh (Cars) and Who Are They (The Who) tribute shows. All three were excellent and the Dakota is a great venue to watch bands. Tickets were $35 to $40 pp with tax. They have a nice menu and the meal that isn't part of the ticket. It can be pricey so depends on your budget.

Awesome staff. Very nice intimate setting.

It's kind of a funky space for a concert; 90% of the chairs are at the side of the stage. But it's been here forever and gets a great variety of good shows.

Great sound and views for such a wide room. Dinner and tickets can get pricey if you're on a fixed-income. It's live music. What could be better? Love it!

Enjoyed a great band, and good gf snacks including the Cajun Fries and the Key Lime Bar.

Excellent, intimate venue

One of the coolest places I’ve ever see a show!!

What an incredible venue and fantastic service--Thank you Freeman! We were celebrating my Daughter's 16th Birthday last Friday and it was our first time at a Jazz Club. It was better than we could have dreamed. Our server, Freeman, was especially helpful and when he found out that it was our first time and celebrating a 16th Birthday he gave us advice on future performances and later when there were some no-shows he moved us to better seats. Oh my God-- being up front and seeing Delfeayo Marsalis and the whole Uptown Orchestra up close was mind blowing. We entered the Dakota as casual Jazz listeners and left as Jazz lovers wanting more and so excited to return. It's a long drive for us, but one we are now looking forward to making frequently and seeing all that the Dakota has to offer. Thank you.
