Editorial Review

This is a piano bar, if you don't like the sound of that go shove your head up an electro DJ’s armpit. This place is so god dern'd authentic it will shake irony off even the most aloof of the mixed Lake Shore crowd. Bring a business card to add to the yellowing strata of many patrons past. The charming piano maestro is flanked by a bar built out over his ivories and like the brave captain of his ship he rescues any pitch. Invite the whole bar to join in to a round of "Oklahoma." Tunes get better with each highly saturated rainbow layered Mai Tai.
