The Velvet Tango Room treats each individual drink as though it were a meal, putting a painstaking amount of work into each drink to bring out the complexity of flavor. And their effort shows; in particular, the Bourbon Daisy has an astonishing FIFTEEN-SECOND aftertaste that mutates on the palate long after you've finished sipping.
Oh, you will pay for the privilege; each drink is roughly $12. But those drinks are each little slices of heaven.
And the service is, I kid you not, THE BEST I've ever had. The owner, Paulius, often hands out roses to women in the shop, and if you go three times the staff will greet you by name. There is also a secret back room you can get to if you ask very nicely, with a hidden mirror behind the coat room. Overall, it's an amazing experience; we go as often as we can.
