Some of the best mixed drinks I've ever had: Perfect blend of enough alcohol, rich flavor, and not too sweet. Nice ambiance too...

I love this place and have for years. I've been here when it's so busy that people have spilled out in the lobby and they have managed to stay ahead of the curve. Tonight though, it was only moderately busy and the two staff seemed completely unsuited for service today. I sat at the table nearest the bar and got... More

We arrived at happy hour, with the drinks being reasonable, food good, and service great. takes a few minutes for your eyes to adjust--it is dark! And while it was busy, they had an adequate number of waiters to keep everyone happy and not... More

The Driftwood Room located inside Hotel Deluxe has a great happy hour menu and delicious champagne cocktails. The dark setting and hotel decor remind me of old Hollywood from the 50s. The truffle fries come with dipping sauces and the croque monsieur (grilled ham and cheese) sandwich is delicious.

Other than the fact that the room is very, VERY dark, this is a lovely and intimate bar. Creative cocktails and a nice bar menu from the adjacent restaurant.

Good happy hour deals and a very cool place! I especially loved that they do two happy hours a day - one, 4-6 and one 9:30 to close. Great for an after dinner drink when you're staying in the hotel

Cute dark bar with cozy seating, bar menu and nice selection of liquors. The service was very good and it was a great place to grab a drink after a dinner out.
