"Whatever rowdy undergrad magnet churning out margaritas by the gallon you might be picturing based on the name, Señor Bear isn’t it. The place exudes a breezy, even peaceful, charm, dotted with wicker lampshades and potted plants—and anchored by a wraparound bar that definitely doesn’t do bottom-shelf margs. The drinks it does do are as thoughtful, playful, refreshing, and bold as the contemporary Latin American cuisine from chef Blake Edmunds. In short, while Señor Bear can definitely start a party, it’s a classy fiesta all the way—not least during Sunday brunch." - Ruth Tobias
