This is another place to whet your palette and has some of the best mixologists in the country. There are two levels and I prefer the lower level because it is darker and the emphasis is on the bar. Order what you like or leave it up to the very capable bar tenders to explore the depths of their drink knowledge. I ordered a Dark & Stormy and they used their own Rhubarb infused ginger beer (not only was the ginger beer homemade but it was infused!). The menu (from the restaurant upstairs) is very good and will fill your desire for light and tasty fare before you crash (hard) at your hotel.
