    Some of the best lemonade I've ever had, perfectly balanced. The salmon is pretty awesome too.

    The margaritas are phenomenal and the atmosphere is lowlit, a low chatter and grooving mood music

    Be careful here. They post drink specials in the Window but they're good only at the bar. I don't do the bait and switch.

    Happy Hour only applies if you're seated at the bar. Poor service, but don't hesitate to say something to the manager.

    Beware. They could lose your credit card behind the bar (on the floor), accuse you of not giving them the card, find it, offer to comp your drinks, then backtrack and uncomp it. Unprofessional.
