"I find Ama Raw Bar’s second-floor, subtly marked entrance and dark, moody interior give it an intimate, out-of-town feel that’s part of its charm. The concise drink list punches above its weight—the Nutty By Nature (bourbon, Amaro Montenegro, browned butter, vanilla, walnut) is rich, while the Scenic Route (house gin blend, Chartreuse Yellow, sochu, sesame) is herbaceous and complex. Ama serves Japanese bites including sushi flown in from Japan and a decadent wagyu/Angus burger, and I’d recommend visiting for Sultry Sunday, a weekly vinyl party with a live DJ." - Sara Harowitz
