This place is a gem Great music & good tapas. Intimate atmosphere. Super friendly staff. Would highly recommend.

Super cozy and friendly live music spot.

The Ray Obideo performance was nice and Im in love with the small intimate venue!

What an incredible experience! I felt so refreshed and lite afterwards and plan to return regularly. Great to align yourself and clear out negative energy. Lisa is wonderful, supportive, and knowledgeable. You cant beat the price for an hour session and you are worth it.

Amazing venue artists and staff!!!

Amazing showHighly recommend

Great local venue! I went to see David Gerard and his amazing Magic Show!

Top-flight music in a great new space with solid drinks.

As usual, fabulous music, food and drinks. Getting home to San Francisco on public transportation was not fun, however. Still a pandemic, I guess.

The Best, people, music, atmosphere, food and drink, all in one truly special place, in Oakland ... If you want to have arare and wonderful experience go see for yourself ... Get there early for a good seat, a glass of wine, or beer, and some great treats ...

This is THE 💯 local place to be with jazz, blues, flamenco, et al unique to Oakland.Fab new site, awesome lineup (with an emphasis on East Bay talentand the food is a-m-a-z-i-n-g.

Great venue with fabulous musicians! You can order food and nice wine. I love the ambiance and the crowd.

Such a hidden gem, love this spot for date night and makes a great gift to friends, family, and colleagues. Would recommend arriving early for good seats and to get their yummy sangria and other small bites that are top notch.

Nonprofit venue hosting great music. Intimate performance area, friendly staff and reasonably priced refreshments.

Very intimate space for music which was very nice. Food is good and the owners are very attentive.

Nice experience! It was my first time watching a live band play.

The Sound Room is a quaint, cozy little venue located in the heart of Oakland that has great acoustics. Its the perfect locale for when you want to get out for the evening to unwind and chill away from the masses of people. I should also mention that the food and drinks were delicious and reasonably priced.I hope to frequent the Sound Room in the near future (or whenever Marina Crouse and the band are playing there). 😁Cheers!

The music and venue were GREAT!!!! The people FANTASTIC!!! However, the surrounding neighborhood isnt safe... Tonight my car was broken into... which ruined the evening... Unfortunately, I learned vehicle break ins of this nature are common. 🙁

I loved this place! Great atmosphere with live jazz music! Mature crowd, a perfect place to take your lady. Customer service was professional and welcoming. Definitely will be coming back with my wife who also enjoyed the experience.

As a fan of chamber music played in environments like this one I visited the sound room tonight for the first time. Classical music in a Jazz place? You bet! What a nice surprise. The music program was spectacular, the food amazing (-ly affordable), super healthy and super tasty (we had veggie tacos and capresadilla - mmmmmh), and the beers a blast. I’ll be back!

The most pleasing thing about the Sound Room, is not the top tier artists, nor the up and coming musicians or even the delicious, unique and inexpensive eats and drinks, but the community. There is a welcoming and comfortable "vibe". It starts with the clubs welcoming and fun owners and staff. The audience is usually packed with amazing Jazz lovers who are friendly, engaged and interesting.

Great, intimate space to hear excellent music of multiple genres at a reasonable price. Good food and beverages as well!

The venue was smaller and less seats than I imagined. The food, proximity to the artist and the staff were fantastic. We had a few small plates of fruit and nuts which were very fair plus the drinks were excellent. I would recommend paying the higher price for earlier entrance.

Came for a comedy show and it was great. Comfortable seating, small so you can see the performers. Nice bar service. Really friendly folks.

Saw an amazing Flamenco Group for the second time at The Sound Room! They are having a Mothers Day celebration featuring a 5-course meal, and this fantabulous Flamenco group! Run to see them. Oh, did I say the food is delicious. Love, love, love this place!!!

What a gem in the heart of Oakland. Street parking (after 6:30was pretty easy. Lots of people out, felt safe. The club is cozy and intimate. Most seating at small round tables (where you can eatvery close to the stage. The food/dinners we ordered was in the $16 price range and quite tasty. And last but not least, the Flamenco was superb. Great evening out!

great music by Five Ten, wonderful, warm, atmosphere with tasty food and good drinks.

also hosted one of the Jazz Search West competitions, intimate venue and easy to get to

The best! Great vibe, music is always top-notch, terrific bar food as well. A perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon. They are a non-profit and need the love and support of the public and local community. Check it out!

Absolutely Fabulous! Setting is superb! Food and beverages are served. Jazz and comedy is offered. This is truly a gem in Oakland. Definitely worth a visit.

An absolutely wonderful place to see live music. Excellent food and a wonderful cause!

Great place to hear jazz from artists slightly below the radar. Very friendly, casual atmosphere. Prices are very reasonable.

Great music venue with food and beverage and reasonable ticket price

Our organization hosted a fundraiser at the Sound Room on a Thursday evening in March. Everything was perfect! The team made set-up and take-down so smooth for us. The food was delicious with lots of options for our guests. Music was great. The staff were so kind and helpful throughout the planning process and during the event. We definitely look forward to visiting the Sound Room in the future!

Intimate environment and great shows. The owners long time love of the arts really comes through.

Kelly Park Big Band is awesome! Fun, intimate, clean, and great jazz music.

Excellent evening at a very low price. Great music, decent wine, great appetizers. Wonderful way to learn about and explore live music.

Watched a great band and singer. They sell plates of snacks/ dinners/drinks. Small intimate place. They feature many differant venues. Street parking and paring area 1/2block away.

Great intimate, living room feel… up close & personal. They attract top-flight talent & have provided me the opportunity to expand my horizons, with stellar, if less known musicians.The staff are lovely folk, every one, on every visit. This is clearly a labor of love for them.All of the food Ive enjoyed there, Ive, um, quite enjoyed.Theyve lost their lease & will need to move during summer 17. Theyre actively looking for the perfect location, for SR version 2.0.

Small and intimate, very good tapas at a reasonable price, excellent music with good viewing and acoustics, friendly staff

Wonderful, wonderful place that I couldnt recommend more. The people who run this are friendly, flexible and helpful. We showed up on a sold out night with kids in tow, and they somehow still found us a place to sit. I love the ability to order small bites, wine & beer from the back during the show, and the sound is top-notch. Im so glad I discovered this place (from a friends recommendation), but wish I knew about it sooner.

This non-profit music venue usually features various types of jazz or blues artists, and is a true Oakland treasure. Its an intimate setting with its 15 or so small tables and maybe 20 stools along the walls occupied by a crowd that appreciates top quality music. These musicians may not be household names, folks, but you wont find better jazz or blues this side of New Orleans.

Great relaxed venue to see local jazz bands

The Sound Room is a remarkable place to comfortably get up close to Jazz and World music while enjoying savory tapas and wine. Ive seen straight ahead jazz, flamenco, faro and blues here and the talent they bring is superb. The Owners Karen and Robert are on site and orchestrating each performance, it makes for a great evening in the center of downtown Oakland. You should check it out!

Popped in on some Jazz some Friday Oakland Art Murmur months ago. Stumbled upon a great young jazz trio Oakland Future Trio. Loved the vibes.
