  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Bodega is the street level Tavern, that offers no frills cocktails in addition to draft beer and shots.

With a reservation, or if allowed admission from the Bartender upstairs, you can experience The Rest. It is a subterranean gem that looks like a bar that Hemingway would have built. Dark wood, taxidermy, old books and plenty of good whiskey. Perfect place for privacy and escaping the world for a minute... Or hours.

    Ambience and drinks were above average, but the service was so horrible that it ruined our experience. A few meals were so overcooked that they were inedible. Nobody seemed to care. I Most likely would not return.

    The beer can chicken is without fail the best chicken I’ve ever had. Everything else on the menu is amazing too.

    We were hoping to get the beer can chicken but unfortunately it requires an hour advance. I wish that was listed on the menu. We ordered some apps that came out lukewarm. Our entree was the pork shoulder that our server was raving about… it was bland. The rice was watered down and the beans were a foam that again was cold. Service was ok, not great.

    Service was great. Food was just average if you ask me. They were out of two appetizers and the ones we got weren’t anything I’d go back for. In fairness, didn’t have dinner

    I accidentally booked our reservation for 6 instead of 8, and didn’t realize the mistake until we arrived at the restaurant. The staff were awesome and made room so we could all still dine together (and as always the food was great)! Thank you so much for being flexible; you saved our evening and have made loyal lifetime customers!

    Loved our meal. We had the steak and the beer can chicken. The broccolini was cooked perfectly. The chicken was super tender. The steak was delicious with a roasted root puree that i wish i could make at home. Very attentive and thoughtful service in a uniquely speak easy like setting that’s both charming and even a bit romantic. Great date night place. .

    So the atmosphere was really cool. Service was adequate. Food was good but was misrepresented. First 2 of the 9 divert options were sold out. We were the first reservation of the night? Second my second option was the misrepresentation. The swordfish was advertised as "skewers" as in plural. Only one skewer was delivered. The puree that the swordfish was on was cold. For the price point I expected more. Will I be back probably not...
