"A dimly lit, windowless drinks parlor with sleek, almost spartan decor that channels early-20th-century low-key elegance, this intimate spot serves seasonally inspired cocktails made with artisanal spirits. The winter-ready Evil Twin (reposado tequila with Branca Menta, coffee, and cinnamon) exemplifies the modern menu, which is complemented by creative bar snacks like coconut curry cashews and a blue crab tostada; expect waits on weekend nights since the space is small and reservations aren’t taken." - Brad Japhe
