Staying at the Grand Downtown, I saw this bar in the lobby and decided to check it out while waiting for check in. The decor is nice, with a bunch of comfy couches and chairs and a well stocked bar and cute bartender at the end but I didn't realize why the bar was named so...until I looked up.
The ceiling is packed with classic art pieces and golden frames with lights scattered far and in between. Similar to the Artisan but nowhere near as dark and creepy. The effect was enough for me to smile and snap a few dozen pictures and order one too many drinks. But hey, again, downtown is proving itself to yield some of the most unexpectedly pleasant places that treats both the eyes as well as the stomach. More so the former than the latter in this case.
I still prefer the Mob Bar but this place definitely has potential :) coming back soon.
