Usually, for me, Saint would be more of an Ain't. As in, "ain't gonna happen." But when the lovely Sara S. is having a birthday party along with other great friends, that might tip the scales a little bit. Here's what it is: - Borderline affordable bar. At $8 for certain drinks, you can stick to your vodka-infused drinks, but if you want to get creative you'll have to plunk down even more money. - Clean. The bathrooms were surprising well-maintained. - Decent music. The DJ that night spun some oldie-goldies, like Luniz and such. - Breeding ground for the douchey type. They're coralled here, but I guess that's somehow the wrong word since they do so willingly. - Pretentious. Velvet ropes outside? A $15 cover? And a List? Come on. That List is so important you can hear the capital L anytime the bouncers ask you if you're on it. Here's what it ain't: - A place to go if you don't want to be trodden on by drunken men in Ed Hardy t-shirts with a blazer, and hair so spiky he could take someone's eye out. - Someplace for ladies to go where the guys are hot. They're just sketchy/douchey. Seriously, I think Adam W. and I were the only hotties there (but he's taken and I'm not your target audience). I guess it all comes down to taste. I had a great time here for Sara S.' birthday party, and we were on The List so we didn't have to pay, but the only reason I went was because we were a group of at least 12 awesome guys and gals celebrating a fabulous lady's birthday.

I feel like I'm not experienced enough with "night life" lounges to really rate this place. But I'll rate it for my fellow newbies out there! It was a nice place to go to at night. Nice ambiance and all that. But...the crowd was questionable. Because there is no dress code anybody can go in! On the day I went there was a friggin crew of bikers there dressed in rough-and-tumble biker wear. So while that is in no way bad, it did break my expectations. I expected to see nicely-clad young guys and girls drinking cocktails, pinkies raised. Rather I saw bikers drinking Coronas.. Also on their food. We did order their dessert platter..and boy was that a mistake. Their $12 dessert platter: rootbeer float, caramel with sliced apples, whipped cream with strawberries, brownie with ice cream, and some/maybe some cake with macerated berries. Like...that wasn't cool. Overall the dessert platter was too sweet and way way too simple. I'm sure I'll go here again one day, but I'm in no rush.

Our venture to Ecco tonight was quite a pleasant one. You know you are going to have a positive experience at a Fifth Group restaurant. We liked everything about Ecco. The restaurant itself is really intriguing. It's a charming little place. The service was stupendous. Our waiter was constantly checking on us, very informative and familiar with the menu and totally on the ball. Listen, everything on the menu looks amazing. If I had $200 dollars to drop, you could probably just roll me on out of there at the end of the evening. Of course, we didn't have 200 dollars to drop, so we went straight for the main course. I had the chili braised pork pappardelle. Excellent. They said it was a signature dish. Very Tasty. Marie had the Mozarella, Basil and Tomato Pizza. Also awesome. Everything was tremendous. For dessert, we had the olive oil ice cream. Wow that tasted good. There are a lot of things that I'd like to try on this menu, and I'll definitely be coming back. Probably will try their Sunday special at some point. Also, thanks to the dude that parked his Taurus on the street giving me no room to get out of my spot. YOU, sir, are a jerkass.
