You won't go thirsty or cigar-less at this lounge that features an awesome array of martinis and the largest humidor on the Riverwalk. The house drink is the Swig (Absolut vodka infused with seasonal fruit, shaken over ice and served straight up). Others include the Goldfinger (Gordon's gin and Noilly Prat vermouth garnished with bocconcini and marinated olives, not stirred) and the St.... more

If you look at my Dolce Ultra Lounge review, you'll see that Dolce was lame so we walked next door to Swig North and it was so much better!!!

Signs of a great running establishment!
