THIS IS A BAR REVIEW...AND IT'S BAD CAUSE MICTHER'S RYE AND MICHTER'S BOURBON ARE 2 DIFFERENT THINGS PEOPLE! HELLO!
Hi My Loves!
I was out on a wild night with The Wild Bunch and came to The Commoner cause friends had a suite in the The Hotel Monaco for an anniversary party. Foodies have been a buzz for the chef of The Commoner but word on the street was that this was a whiskey bar. WRONG! This is a bunch of nuts & bolts pretty cocktail waitresses that don't know what classic drinks contain.
A true test is a simple one...an old fashioned with RYE! Scan what they have at the bar...ok I guess we will go with Michter's...who also happens to make bourbon. I SPECIFICALLY said RYE...I got freaking bourbon! Which by some bartenders bibles would not necessarily be wrong per say but I asked for the damn rye lady!
THEN...I took a right turn to girl drinks...lavender nasty something...I went to the B Team...champagne cocktail...UGGG! I'M ON THE LOVE BOAT!
There was no way I was gonna eat here.
Now I will say...::gramma voice:: the bathrooms were amazing! Clean and beautiful! The layout of the restaurant is odd a lot of wasted dead floor space.
I'll try the roof top bar next time around but honestly I'm not going back there unless someone else is paying.
Still can't beat Tender!
Love you,
Muah
