Best Value, Atmosphere & Mojito
by tbills
Ive been there few times & love it every time. Thier design coupled with their incredible simple wine, champaigne & coctail list with its unusual very competitive prices makes this hang out the jewel of the city.
You are ok there dressed casual but it is far from being that. Great as a date spot over a bottle of wine or a place to check before dinner at Tsunami sushi or any of the area's hangouts. Try their Mojito it i9s truly the best you will have... One is never enough..
- Pros: Mojito, Wine, Atmopshere
