 | 	- Loved the comment about Adonis DNA by ruggy j. Classic (for the next two weeks, anyway).
This place (in Arcadia) feels urban-hipster meets ultra lounge, but only because the dark bar area makes you feel hugged in anonymity, the booths create a sense of intimacy, but as you get closer to the windows and patio, the space opens up and feels far more festive.
On a dreary Thursday, I met a friend for Happy Hour to work through the day's torment, and was pleasantly surprised by $3.50 pints of Deschutes's Mirror Pond Pale Ale on tap! Yay, Happy Hour, and yay, draft Mirror Pond!  Surprisingly, I found myself scanning the bar menu and decided to snack on something while enjoying my frosty beverage.
Lo, and behold: Half-price noms!  The Trifecta was for me (three sliders with fries), and I was not disappointed with the pile 'o' fries and the tasty burgers.  A filling snack for the price of a USD Lincoln, and it kept me sober for the next two rounds to follow.
Our bartender was top-notch, with incessantly-fast service without hovering. (Thanks for not being there when I made my controversial remarks about wait staff, BTW!)
Short-and-sweet: Good food, marginal parking, excellent people-watching.
