I had heard that this was one of the top bars in the area, so we were really looking forward to it, and also to the concept of it, where the drinks have a bit of an international flare. And although I greatly appreciated the concept, and my husband's drink, my drink fell a little bit flat. It just wasn't complex or interesting enough. Perhaps I just ordered wrong?
I had the Discover pandan.
He had the Eastwood martini.
Also, our server was quite attentive, and the place was pretty, but even after it was all dressed up with the beautiful wood, I could not help but feeling like I was in a hotel bar. Some places just have a hard time shaking that vibe, so even though it's part of a high-end hotel chain, it still felt hotel-bar-like. It certainly was a great example of a hotel/bar though.
The little bar snacks are nice and appreciated.
So I would place this as a four out of five. Good drinks, excellent service, but did not really feel like a local place, if that makes sense? With so many other places in the area to choose from, this was not a standout for me.
