Kemestre is an awesome bar for 5@7s. It's modern yet cozy, thanks to the narrow layout and colourful lighting. The cocktails were strong and well-balanced- I had one with tequila and ancho Chile pepper and another with pear Grey Goose. We were famished after a while so we were glad the Chef had lots of good food waiting for us! Highlights were the salmon tartare, the duck Shepherd's pie and the vegetarian burger. Only downside were the buns- they were cold and tasted a bit stale.
The bar has 2 floors so you could choose to groove to hip-hop downstairs or have a nice convo with your friends upstairs where it's quieter.
I'd definitely come back! Thanks Yelp and Mariko for introducing this cool spot to us.
