Boring. That's how I would describe my recent visit to Jade Bar. Three stars for the view but seriously? A generous two stars for the experience!
I thought these guys were mixologists! Especially after seeing all the dropper topped bottles on the bar. And, at $14/drink I expected them to dazzle me and take pleasure in doing so. NOT the case.
A whiskey girl, I was surprised not to see a single bourbon drink on the menu. But, I figured this what they were featuring. So, I started with the tequila bramble. It was ok. Since I really am a whiskey girl, I let our server know I wanted a bourbon drink. She asked the bartender for ideas and he came back with an old fashioned. When challenged, he came up with a manhattan. That's it?! So *I* suggested a bourbon bramble, since I had just had the tequila one.
Boring. Lame. NOT worth the $14 when there are so many great bartenders mixing it up in town these days. Surprised though. Come on, Jade Bar! Step up your game!!
