"“I Can’t Believe I 8 the Whole Thing!” That’s what guests say at this weekday happy hour on Jefferson. It’s that simple: The whole happy hour menu goes for $8. It’s all about streamlined quality at this chic spot, with muted but lush interior decor and refined homestyle cooking. During happy hour, look out for options like Buffalo cauliflower, mezcal wings, and wonton tacos. Desserts are discounted, too, such as brown sugar pineapple with Ivy rum ice cream topped with cake crumbles, or vanilla bean cheesecake. Like the food, the cocktails at Ivy are fresh takes on classic favorites. The sour is made with a floral Nolet gin; the Rusty Screw balances the heat of jalapeño and the bite of tequila with smokey-sweet Drambuie. Ivy also offers nearly a dozen different wines by the glass. Hours: 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday." - Mickey Lyons
"For an elegant experience on the east side with the girls, Ivy Kitchen and Cocktails has it all: beautiful interior design, breakfast classics with a twist (fried chicken and waffles with bourbon maple syrup, French toast with berry compote and whipped mascarpone, whipped cheesy shrimp and grits), and a variety of cocktails and mocktails. Plus, brunch is also available on Fridays, for those who like to give their weekends a little kickstart. Online ordering is also available." - Serena Maria Daniels
"Cocktails are in the name of this popular east side restaurant. Have organic, grass-fed beef with the non-alcoholic Shirley Ginger (ginger beer, club soda, lime juice, grenadine lime rounds, maraschino cherries) or the Rosemary Blueberry Splash (blueberries, rosemary sprig, stripped, honey syrup, lemonade, sparkling mineral water, ice muddle blueberries, rosemary, and honey)." - Serena Maria Daniels
