I began to make my way back downtown to Ward III for a birthday party. Since it’s opening last June it’s become my go-to bar – it’s perfect for everything from a date to late night drinks to a large group . It’s dark, candle lit and has a sexy downtown vibe with plenty of seating at the bar or a table. There’s a great cocktail list but the bartenders will also create a “bespoke cocktail” made to order based off a list of various flavor profiles. The kitchen serves what I like to call upscale bar food until about 3am – the sliders (pork and beef blend) and mac and cheese are my favorites.

Cocktail:

• Baby Eveline - vodka, fresh lemon, muddled strawberries, bitters, sparkling burgandy

Good for: Cocktails, Date Night, Large Groups, Late Night, Light Bites
