"When Dark Room opened in early 2023, it was an instant classic. Co-owner Matthew Gomez brings restless creativity to a drink menu that includes a damn-near encyclopedic range of ingredients. There’s interesting booze like Kümmel, Nixta, and Cloosterbitter; not-booze like Yakult and moringa; even kimchi brine and carrot. As if that wasn’t enough, owner Amy Beaumier is in the kitchen slinging top-notch Korean-inflected snacks til 10 p.m., and the atmosphere is as lively as it is moody and dimly lit." - Meg van Huygen
