"Soma is our favorite bar in Soho. It has a lot in common with this area’s other popular drinking dens: it’s underground, it’s relatively small, and it’s got well-dressed clientele. But the thing that sets Soma apart are the smoky, inventive takes on classic cocktails. It’s from the people behind Indian restaurant Kricket and you can expect remixes like a Negroni with burnt cashew, and a thandai butter take on an espresso martini. Everything from the long bar to the early hours closing time makes leaving impossible. " - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
