Japanese food, live music, and a clear place to arrive.
Izakaya in Astoria
JAZKAYA is a Japanese izakaya and live jazz bar in the heart of Astoria, Queens. The address is 37-11 30th Ave. in Long Island City, so the page gives a clear point of arrival before the evening starts. The setting suits a meal that can move from lunch into drinks without changing rooms or pace.
The name points to two parts of the visit. One side is the food and drink of an izakaya. The other is the music. The room supports both, with a layout that works for a meal, a round of drinks, or a longer night built around live jazz. For a broader look at the kitchen side, see the lunch menu structure.

About JAZKAYA
JAZKAYA brings Japanese izakaya dining and live jazz together in Long Island City. The space sits at 37-11 30th Ave., and the mood draws from underground Tokyo energy. Lunch runs through the day, with specials built around fresh sushi, sashimi, hot kitchen dishes, grilled items, and made-to-order plates.
The lunch menu is built for choice. A sushi box can start with soup or salad, then move to a roll, an extra, and a drink. Premium lunch sets add another path through the kitchen, with combinations such as salmon, seaweed salad, vegetable roll, gyoza, and other Japanese staples. The food comes out in a sequence that suits a quick midday stop or a slower meal.
In the evening, the room shifts to Japanese small plates, creative cocktails, sake, wine, and live jazz on select nights. The setting suits dinner, drinks, date nights, celebrations, and a night out with friends. Hours run from 12 PM through late evening most days, with Friday closing at 10:30 PM and Saturday at 11:30 PM.
Wheelchair-accessible entrance, seating, and toilet are available. The dining room stays intimate, with music at the center on select nights and a menu that moves from lunch boxes to late-night plates without losing its Japanese focus.
