MrsCorksterMrsCorkster: Better service than the now-defunct Gilt Bar at the Palace and truly gorgeous lighting, made me feel it was still daylight outside. Try Corpse Reviver No. 2 cocktail; black truffle burger was yammers.

Zane D.Zane Dolla: Expensive but super legit -- don't forget to try the burger -- I know it sounds crazy but ask the staff about it -- cooked to perfection

Jamia P.Jamia Pope: They have an extensive wine, scotch and bourbon list. The bar food is more like a tiny appetizer but it was delicious.
