Red Note A New Era Begins

In the heart of historic Hollywood, Tarzan’s Red Note Lounge rises at 219 North 21st Avenue, a space steeped in South Florida lore. This iconic address once hosted the legendary World-Famous Hemingway’s, a vibrant restaurant and music venue that defined glamour, nightlife, and excess from the late 1970s through the ‘90s.

Hemingway’s wasn’t just another hotspot; it was THE place to be. With white-glove service, black-tie staff, and lines stretching around the block, it welcomed jazz legends like Dave Brubeck and Nat King Cole, local elites, politicians, and a nightlife scene that pulsed with energy well into the morning hours. From exquisite cuisine to unforgettable performances, Hemingway embodied South Florida’s most extravagant era.

Long before that, whispers told of its past as a 1940s bordello. Some say the building still holds traces of the madam’s lingering spirit.

Today, Tarzan’s Red Note Lounge reimagines this storied space for a new generation. A place where smooth jazz meets intimate ambiance, cocktails are expertly crafted, and every night is a story waiting to unfold. Live and curated performances from classic jazz to modern grooves. Red Note features local talent and surprise guests. Red Note is a stage, a lounge, and a space for unforgettable nights, where every guest becomes part of history.
