2010 here we come, with a bangggg.... well, we'll do better in the second quarter.

Pros: Speakeasy drinks, potato bread burger buns, friendly staff, good flare on old-fashioned.
-Drink details: Captain Lawrence beers, thennnn vodka grapefruits & old fashioneds with Old Overholt Rye - all good news.

Cons: By the end of the burger, the bottom of the bun was not there. Anddd the drinks were expensive. We got killed on alcohol.

Total Bill: $255.48 (alcohol was 2/3 of this... I mean, $12 drinks....)


Good place, great time at dinner. We all needed to unwind.
As it happened, when we initially walked in, we each thought that we were in the wrong place. This place is actually relatively new, and the 'club'/bar that we had thought we were going to actually doesn't open until 10pm. Our waiter, Spenky, said that it gets pretty crowded. But that's for another night
