Time Out says

The Art Deco-styled bar and restaurant evokes a bygone era with touches like antique smoked mirrors, intage murals of burlesque dancers and a ceiling covered in Chesterfield-inspired cushions. Some drinks also skew to theme, with recipes from Prohibiton and an entire menu page focused on European-style gin-and-tonic service. If you're more thoroughly mordern, try the signature cocktails made with ingredients like coffee-pecan bitters and tomatillo-infused mescal.

The vibe: It almost feels like a beautiful Parisian train concourse bathed in golden light. Downstairs is duskier, tres cool millennial

The food: Sort of a gastropub brasserie hodgepodge upstairs. An assemblage of snacks downstairs with some asian inspired dishes.

The drink: Upstairs can handle any classic cocktail with aplomb, but they specialize in a variety of Gin and Tonics. Downstairs the drinks are whackier and more nouveau, like the Nighthawk cocktail featuring brown butter, Cynar, and coffee whiskey.

Time Out tip: Choose your own adventure, but doing dinner upstairs and then continuing with drinks downstairs feels right.
