There is no sign announcing this place, so be on the lookout for the overflowing planter boxes. These colorful flowers flank ornate doors of carved wood and glass. Inside, a quiet bar and private tables await, as well as a friendly welcome and great service. The menu highlights traditional American favorites and cocktails mixed to perfection.
