The drinks are incredible. Absolutely incredible. No surprise, since the bartending staff had about ten days of training, and the cocktails were designed by Ira Koplowitz (a veteran of Chicago’s famed Violet Room) and Nick Kosevich (of Town Talk Diner fame). As for food, the steak “tar tar” made with chopped steak is fantastic!
