Chartreuse

“ This place is almost always hoppin' and it's easy to see why. It's a lounge where the bartenders are in charge, crafting not just the drinks, but the whole experience.

It's a spot that feels just as classy as it does casual, perfectly blending the two into a comfortable vibe where wingtips feel as welcome as flip-flops.

I usually get an Old Fashioned or Manhattan—smoked (which brings with it the unique pleasure of an almost 3-act play, full of dramatic tension and aromatic deliciousness). But the real reason to go is for conversation with the sharp-witted and sassy bartenders, who sling one-liners with as much ease as they throw around their cocktail shakers. ”
