    Best vesper martini we’ve ever had in our life. You can tell there is skill and how they make the cocktails that’s different from anywhere else. Also my clover club was on point and excellent . Hands-down will be Uber in there and getting cocktails pre-dinner and will take my friends there for sure just because they offer the highest quality of classic cocktails. There’s no riff on it. It’s just perfect classic cocktails . parking around that area gets a little bit shady and it’s difficult unless you come early, I can snag a street spot in front. I don’t like walking around there by myself late at night when I’m a lady, but that’s not the Roosevelt room‘s fault.

    Wonderful gluten-free flatbread option definitely have to check out. We went during the sunset and it was beautiful. I wish the shades were still up. Drink specials for the holiday was great as well. I had the naughty list. Definitely would recommend solids espresso martini.
