Okay, so yesterday I was trying to figure out where to take my wife for our anniversary. She loves live music and good food, so I started Googling “live entertainment restaurants near me”.
First thing I did was just a basic search. I mean, duh, right? I typed it into Google and a bunch of places popped up on the map. I started clicking through the ones that looked promising, checking out their menus and looking for pictures or videos of the live entertainment.
Some of the results were total duds. Like, one place claimed to have live music, but when I clicked through, it was just some dude with an acoustic guitar playing covers in the corner. Not exactly what I was going for.
Next, I tried getting more specific with my search terms. I figured “live music” is pretty broad. So, I tried things like “restaurants with jazz music near me” and “restaurants with live bands near me.” That narrowed things down a bit, but still, a lot of the results were just okay.
Then, I remembered Yelp. I usually forget about Yelp, but it’s actually pretty good for finding local stuff. I searched for “restaurants with live music” on Yelp and started reading the reviews. The reviews were super helpful because people would mention the type of music, how good the food was, and what the atmosphere was like.
I also checked out some local blogs and websites. Our city has a few websites that focus on local events and restaurants. I did some digging and found a couple of articles about restaurants with live entertainment. One article had a whole list of places with details about their music schedules and menus. Score!
After a couple of hours of searching, I finally narrowed it down to three places. One was a jazz club with a restaurant, one was a restaurant with a live band that played classic rock covers, and the third was a place that had different types of live music every night. I showed my wife the options, and she picked the place with the diverse music lineup.
We went last night, and it was awesome! The food was great, the music was fun, and the atmosphere was perfect. It was exactly what we were looking for. So, yeah, that’s how I found a live entertainment restaurant near me. A little bit of Google, a little bit of Yelp, and a little bit of local blog searching.
