    Always a good time at the Cellar. The cone trifecta is great, the short rib is amazing and really good value, lots of interesting cocktails (although a tad pricey IMO), many beer options and unique ones you aren't going to find just anywhere. Awesome ambiance, jazz music playing, low lighting. Service was quick this time, sometimes it doesn't seem like the fastest although not a huge issue either, but the last couple visits have been very solid. Overall just a really cool spot that we try to hit up once or twice a year.

    Festive atmosphere, Valentine's Day, but not devoted solely to couples. A lot of us were dining preshow. I saw several families. Food was great. They brought us an "extra" plate of roasted brussel sprouts to try and they were awesome. Great wine selection with some reasonable options

    Friday late lunch is a favorite way to start the weekend and it did not disappoint for Valentines Day. Capital cosmos and local beer to start our dining followed by onion soup and steaks - perfection. Dessert was yummy coconut pie to share. Mario our server was attentive and on point. Parking behind Dunhill garage makes this a super easy trip to Uptown.
