| - Herbs and Rye has become my new favorite go-to spot for cocktails. The wait staff are phenomenal, and I love the dark speakeasy vibe (red velvet wallpaper, black booths, and swanky chandeliers). I've rarely seen it crowded, which actually kind of worries me because I wonder how it stays in business!
They have some steakhouse style food, but what I go for are the fantastic creative (old school style) drinks and service. The "classic cocktails" are amazing, and the service is personal and helpful. There are a few drinks that dabble with absinthe, so if you're a fan of the licoricey liquor, here's a place to try it. My favorite drink is the Aviator - which from my memory is a combo of gin, lime, and a violet infused liquor - oh my! They also serve classics like "Moscow Mule" and will likely make anything you request.
The happy hour deal is fantastic, with some of the steaks (half price). My friend labelled it as one of the best steaks he's ever had. I have tried a few of the flatbread pizzas, which are a fair deal at $10 a piece. We tried the linguine and clams, which was good but not the best I've ever had.
For a cool off-strip vibe with great cocktails and an atmosphere where you can chat with your friends (i.e. not blasting boom-boom music), or sit at the bar on your own, check this place out!
