If you don’t know who Marilyn and Joan are, don’t bother. This slick nightspot only gets campier with age, so prepare to be entertained by black-and-white Hollywood glamour movies and performances by female impersonators of Hollywood icons. The 100-martini-strong drink list is a draw, and chef Mark Kasper puts the focus on dishes like bacon mac and cheese and Southern fried chicken with cayenne maple waffles. But you didn’t actually come here for the food, did you?
