In ShortFramed black-and-white photos of B.B. and his blues crew bedeck the walls, a disco ball sends out a snowstorm of light and waiters flash big smiles. Tight seating lends the authenticity of a cramped downtown club, and makes a 500-capacity venue feel cozy and intimate. B.B. himself stops by on occasion, but the roster isn't limited to blues and jazz. The top-notch sound system amplifies a wide range of rap, rock and pop.

You might not get to hear B.B. King himself every night, but the other acts at this Times Square spot are top notch. While food and drinks are quite pricey, the varied performances make it all worth it. It can get crowded, so it's advised to get there early for a seat.
