by Jason H. on honestly my memory of my night at Griffin was quite fuzzy... but obviously in a good way. I remember a great table, tons of booze, great music and plenty of women. It's on the smaller side (but thankfully not tiny) which i like since it allows for a more intimate evening. I'm over the mega club scene and prefer a classier setting such as this. Velvet couches + chandeliers + great music = fantastic night. I'll be there again this week!
by Jacinto Criss on Fun! I'm all about the cheap stiff drinks, and Bob Bar was on it. It does get crowded and very hot...FAST! But, if that doesn't bother you, this is a really chill spot for some good hip hop music. The music ranged from Jay-Z, 2pac, Blackstreet, Rihanna, Pharcyde (!!), and the like. I was definitely feeling like I was back home minus the terrible hyphy mash-ups that plague the Bay Area bars/clubs.
by Gary Uselton on decor: really beautiful restaurant. very unique and not what you expect. it looks small looking through the window, but the restaurant is rather spacious in the back. apparently lower level seating exists. food: the calamari appetizer was quite tender, but i wasn't wowed. i ordered the steak frites, which was quite delicious. homemade fries were perfect. the steak was also cooked nicely. service: great attention and service. waiter a bit overly eager. calm down. price: pretty pricey, save for a semi-special occasion. the place was e-m-p-t-y. i walk by it everyday to and from work and i rarely see it busy. overall: beautiful atmosphere but amalia belongs in another neighborhood. doesn't really fit in the theater district.
