"This is the kind of place where you could stomp around like you had your own personal wind machine and no one would think twice about it. Beatnik is all about atmosphere, and letting you eat things like veal sweetbread kebabs in a jungle full of tropical plants while a DJ plays. It’s perfect for cocktails, small plates, and pretending you’re on a movie set. Unlike on a movie set, though, you won’t have someone constantly touching up your hair, so thankfully there is no actual tropical humidity." - adrian kane
