Cedar Walton Quintet
Review By Nancy Walman
Award-winning website, Punchin-dot-com, features the Walman Report and reviews of restaurants, travel, wine and theater. Great Performances, the leading New York City-based catering and events company, soars to new culinary heights with the latest menu at Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola, Lincoln Center’s intimate jazz club, located in Frederick P. Rose Hall in the heart of Columbus Circle. As the summer season swings into action, Venue Chef Nima Khansari, serves up a fascinating blend of soulful, southern delicacies and fresh, seasonal ingredients, sourced from Great Performances’ own organic farm.
Great Jazz was a given, but never did we expect a serious kitchen producing such ravishing dishes as Seared Catfish Po-Boy with Chipotle Mayo, Coleslaw and Sweet Potato Fries; Crawfish Beignets with Creole Mustard Aioli, lovely grilled asparagus, Gumbo-Laya with Lump Crab Meat, Shrimp, Crawfish, Andouille Sausage, Tasso Ham and Chicken over White Rice and The best Fried Chicken, Collard Greens and Potato Salad this side of the Maison-Dixon-Line. Don’t miss the delicious desserts like Blueberry Crisp with Tahitian Vanilla Gelato and traditional red velvet cake.

Cocktails like Makers Mark and Grand Marnier and a cherry margarita are terrific, as is the efficient service. Dinner is served when the doors open at 6pm and during the artist’s sets at 7:30pm, 9:30pm and Fridays and Saturdays at 11:30pm. On our visit, “The Cedar Walton Quintet, with Steve Turre, Featuring Cedar Walton, piano; Steve Turre, trombone; Vincent Herring, alto saxophone; David Williams, bass; Joe Farnsworth, drums was as good as it gets and Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola, Broadway at 60th Street, rates “A Major” on The Walman Report.
