"Another seasoned player in the South Bay cocktail scene, 55 South is now celebrating 13 years of serving craft cocktails, expanding an already impressive whiskey lineup, and filling the space with live music – saxophones, violins, and all. The chatty, engaged crowd also makes 55 South one of the higher-energy watering holes in the area. The menus are like little art projects, shifting with the seasonal themes and pop-ups. For Lunar New Year, they rolled out specialties like Rice Cookie, which included shochu, black sesame, and fermented rice. And no matter the season, their Old Fashioneds never miss." - Laura Zhang
