    Their patio is perfect for pandemic-safe dining. We got to stay in one of the outdoor tents/houses. Though the heating inside wasn’t too great, the vibe and food were. I recommend the Thai calamari.

    A little off the beaten path (the southermost part of the city), dbar has become very popular with the gays. Tip: Check out Show Tune Tuesday, a gay video night and singalong with VJ Rompy. FUN.

    Best bloody mary I've ever had - and that includes every type. Great brunch and not too crowded!

    It's a tough call. If you stay inside, you'll be cozy in the main dining room, where handsome waiters (we didn't spy a single waitress) shuttle trays of cocktails and light fixtures turn rainbow color Read more

    Waited over an hour on a Sat for our extremely overpriced food. Music was blasting so loud we couldn't hold a conversation. Won't be back!
