Furio is just right in so many ways. White leather lounge sofas and the bold sexy decor set the mood and suggest an air of pretension, but the friendly service and basketball game on TV balance that with an air of a laidback sensibility. The lounge area was neither too quiet nor too loud, neither too quiet nor too dark. I'm diggin on you Furio!
Fancy martini and cocktail list are the name of the game here and prices are about average for the Old Town scene - think $10-12 martinis. I opted for a Bacardi and Coke since all the cocktails sounded so sweet. On a Thursday night with the Yelp crew there were about a dozen or so inside at about 10 pm when the dining area was shutting down.
I imagine this as somewhere to chill and gather to pre-party before heading out to the dance clubs. But I (and probably you too) would be just as fine relaxing the night away here. I would go here more often if it was closer to me, and I would be up for having dinner here sometime for sure.
It's actually more like 4.5 stars, but I'm reserving judgment until I dine there.
