So the food here is good, but what you really should come for are the drinks and dessert! The many small chocolatey, creative bite-sized (so you won't feel too guilty) desserts are satisfying, and all of the drinks are great though I LOVE the pomegranate daiquiri and buzz aldrin the most. The upstairs outdoor bar is a great place to be in the summertime.

Pros: great drinks

Cons: pricey
