• This subterranean cocktail bar was founded by two alums of Sasha Petraske’s Little Branch, Joseph Schwartz and Cervantes Ramirez. Schwartz was previously the head bartender of Petraske’s groundbreaking bar Milk & Honey, while Ramirez has worked at PDT, Von, and Silver Lining
• Pick your poison from a list of refined, grown-up cocktails like the Dog Day Afternoon (gin, Cocci Americano, orange, lemon, and soda), the Touch of Evil (mezcal, tequila, yellow chartreuse, dry vermouth), or the can’t-miss Bartender’s Choice
• What to eat: the slow-cooked octopus, curried deviled eggs, chicken liver foie gras, and the green apple creme brulee with cinnamon ice cream
