This review is basically a warning. If I had written it last year, like I meant to, I would have given this bar 4 stars (I was in love with the mid-century decor and the excellent drinks). But I went back recently and something very bad's happened to this place. I suspect they changed owners? The decor is the same but the staff has been changed and in place of the gracious and competent guys and girls who worked there before we were treated to a parade of amateurs: a waitress who didn't speak English (we eventually had to mime what air conditioning was, that it was 13 degrees outside and that it was deeply uncomfortable to have it blasting), a bartender who didn't know how to make a simple drink from their menu and had to start over twice, a manager (I think?) who plopped his unwashed hands in a jar of pickles to fish out the garnish for a Caesar (which previously came with a classic, crunchy celery stalk like it's supposed to, not a slimy manhandled pickle). The drinks were so horribly mixed that, despite my aversion to wasting perfectly good alcohol, I left behind a nearly full glass. We were also overcharged by the same bumbling bartender.
