| - First, a note on finding the place. It took a while to figure out how to get into this place. Based on the yelp reviews and address, we assumed it was something super complicated involving the apartment building next door. It's not. It's a pretty straightforward entrance on the EAST side of Marben.
The atmosphere inside is really nice. Relatively small, but cozy interior. We ordered the earl gray old fashioned for 6 in a decanter, which was very good. Though I'm biased because: a) I love old fashioned, and b) I had been craving old fashioned that evening.
Where this place really wins points is on service. When we decided to experiment after the old fashioned, the first drink we ordered was the 500 lb gorilla. The drink was very licorice-tasting, which I'm not a fan of. One of the servers came by and was adamant that we not just suck it up, and had our drinks replaced with something different. Bonus points for service on that, although I would say the service was still very good outside of that.
For food, we tried a few snack-y items, which were good, but definitely not the selling feature.
