Me and my wife had a great time going for dinner on a Friday night. Staff were very attentive and constantly asking if we needed anything and refilled the water bottle every time it was empty without asking. Food was great and top it off the entertainment of the jazz band playing really made the evening special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a special evening.

First visit for my friend and I. Ambiance just right, food delicious, staff friendly and helpful. To top it all it was ‘Ruby Tuesday’ jazz night. Super talented musicians coupled with great singers. Perfect eve had by all. Definitely recommend ?

Our favourite place to eat drink and experience live jazz. We held our Xmas gathering here on the 8th, we were a group of eleven with very mixed food tastes but everyone thought the food, drinks, service and atmosphere were superb. Well done guys!

Perfect ambience, perfect venue, perfect music. But oh dear. The food? Shocking. Miniscule portions,all too salty. Prices would be reasonable if the food and portions were of a reason standard. Had the prawns ,which were destroyed,pasta with swordfish for main.Again, overcooked and dry,.pasta undercooked. Can cook way better myself. Drinks were way too expensive . Would of stayed all night if I wasn't paying £6 for half a pint. Shame. Won't return.

I have been to this resturant many times and it is fantastic The food is always excellent and they do great gluten free options and also have a separate vegetarian menu On Friday and Saturday they have live jazz music and a really nice vibe

pelican club has a lovely atmosphere and the bad we’re strumming away in the corner. The service was very attentive, but we found the pasta dishes a bit oily for our liking. But otherwise a great night out and will return.

Went here for dinner on a Thursday night, was quiet but the music made up for it as the atmosphere and decor was lovely. Service was fast and our waiter was friendly and helpful, tentative but not overbearing. The food was very tasty and had an authentic feel to it. We shared an antipasti and a pasta course and had a secondi each which was more than enough as we had to take the rest of our mains home. Bang on, will be back for some live jazz I'm sure!

Love everything about this place. Great cocktails, delicious food and the live jazz is always a treat. I really like the decor as well, you feel as though you've been transported when you walk through the door.
The atmosphere is very nice, with a lot going on with the bar and live music, but the food was a real let down. I had a monkfish starter which was bland an I believe they forgot the garnish for the dish. Main was a pork pasta dish which was nice, but again just average and the cost of two courses for two people with one drink each was £70, which I feel was overpriced for the quality of the food. Really let down, as I had seen people recommend this place online, and booked as a nice dinner for myself and partner after a long two weeks of work.

Great food, wine, service and live music here at the weekend. The house red wine was lovely. We will definitely be back. Thank you

Everything was great (staff serving us were friendly, starter and wine were lovely) until our mains arrived. I had the pork belly and it was so over cooked that in places it was completely burnt. After speaking to our waiter about this someone came over to tell me they’d looked at it and it wasn’t that bad which I found really insulting, it was a special occasion and I wouldn’t send back my food for no good reason. I was offered an alternative pasta dish but at this point we just wanted to leave to enjoy our evening elsewhere. I would avoid this place if planning on eating.

Really lovely venue, friendly and accommodating staff. The decor and atmosphere of the place is great too.Really liked the cocktails and they have a very impressive drinks menu.Food wise, there's was nothing bad about it, however, there was nothing notable about it either. It was perhaps a bit below the standard you'd expect for the higher price. e.g., pasta dish lacking seasoning, not al dente, focaccia was a bit dry/chewey. But again we still had an enjoyable meal, but wouldn't come back just for the food.The actual menu sounded delicious and very Italian, I just think it could be executed better. It's such a nice venue otherwise, refining the food would make it a top choice for Nottingham. I'm more than willing to pay £15 to £20 for a pasta dish, but it has to be really delicious at that price.

We met some friends on the recommendation of our Italian neighbours. Great recommendation. The service was excellent. The food was outstanding and the music. Great jazz joint as well.
Great food, great staff and excellent
