Amber: With a waterfall wall of polished stones, tall bamboo, and a sitar-heavy playlist, Amber’s nature-meets-New-Age atmosphere toes the line between cheesy and cool. But there is something appealing about the blue, red, and orange lights glowing behind the bar and through hanging birch lanterns, while Amber’s industrial-looking, iron-sculpted screen between the bar and dining room provides some necessary edge. The bar is too tiny for socializing but fine for a pre-dinner drink. Happy hour specials include $4 beers, dollar-off wine, and $6 cocktails. Give the frozen Green Tea Margarita a whirl—this green tea es-sence, Sauza Gold tequila, triple sec, lime juice, and OJ blend is the house specialty and must be good for you, right? |
