This chic downtown restaurant serves an eclectic mix of American and international foods in a dining room filled with dark polished woods, soft lights, exposed beams, and dark carpets. The highlight of the dining area, though, is the enormous 150-year-old polished wood back bar that gives the room a sleek and stylish ambience.
