"When you name your restaurant after a family member, the personal approach is embedded from the get-go. That’s what chef Stephen Gillanders has done at Apolonia, which is named after his Filipino grandmother. Drop in during happy hour, called “golden hour” here, and be rewarded with $5 draft beers, and $10 wine and well classic cocktails. On the food side, there are $2 oysters, $7 brussels bravas, $10 mussels, $10 lamb kefta, and more. Golden hour is available in the bar 5 to 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 5 to 6 p.m. in the dining room." - Lisa Shames
