Well, it isn't quite a 'dome', but it's still intriguing.

The place is Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles.
what style of architecture
is this? I can't put my finger on it.

here's a glimpse of the sign

I'm a bit confused by the sign.
If you look closely there's a smaller 'Club West' beneath the Roscoe's sign at top (and there's also a list of performers/acts)
So is Roscoe's Chicken 'n Waffles half restaurant....half jazz club (?)
I think this might be the 'rotunda' area under the pointed 'turret/dome'.
