Editorial Review
This late-night lounging spot has an elegant neighborhood feel. At the full-length bar sit witty regulars who spar with jocular bartenders. Large hanging mirrors can be used to keep tabs on newcomers in elevated booths. The unpretentious menu changes with the seasons, and alternates between rusti Italian, hauty French and Boston seafood favorites. Cucumber Collins and Maple Manhattan cocktails wind you up or wind you down, depends on how fast you sip.
