Trendy, yes. Small, yes. Dark, yes. But I like this place. The doorman was friendly, as was the bartender. My friends and I found a place at the bar and watched the room fill up. It was a Friday night, too. The music was fantastic - electronica with just enough funk to keep your foot tapping. The wine was incredible. I tried the house Cab. I was highly impressed. I would definitely go back. I like the location. If friends were visiting out of town, I would recommend this place - it's great for those who like lounges, a variety of drinks and music that won't put you to sleep.
