| - I can't really review the Rum Bar without reviewing Breadfruit. They are really one in the same, and Breadfruit's food stole the day. But, to be honest, we have never physically be IN to Breadfruit. We only go to the Rum Bar and we LOVE this place. I have been there 3 times. Once when I was a sardine and packed into the place without room to even breathe, once with my parents in the comfy window seating are and once with my husband on a romantic date for 2. I loved it every time...and by the third time, I was told by my husband "YOU HAVE TO YELP THIS PLACE NOW!" and he then exclaimed "I think this is my favorite food in the entire city."
My husband is not one to stake claim on anything less than spectacular (he is married to ME!) so here I am giving them the highest rating and review I can muster...
The drinks are extremely tasty, unique, clever and strong. I love the rums and the free tastings we have had of the various types of rum. This place has really opened my mind and expanded my knowledge. I like that the bartenders and staff always ask our names and take an interest in what we are eating, drinking, talking about and liking about life. They are so kind!
But...and yes, there's a but...the Rum Bar experience won't be bringing us back. It's the FOOD that is the big draw. What a great culinary experience. Every bite is a wonderful adventure. The spices, the mixture of fruits with the savory dishes, the fish...oh the fish!
We plan on going back again...and again! The location is a little tricky to find, but if you found SENS/Turf, it's in the same block (nearly the same building), but just around the corner. Don't despair, just walk south and take a left (east) and you'll see Breadfruit on the left.
