The Narrows

The layout places booths on one side and the bar on the other under sultry, muted lighting. Inside, the vibe is low-key yet fancy, and it is relatively easy to get a seat even on weekends. The drink options stir some debate, described alternatively as solid cocktails like the Word and decent craft beers, or a mediocre and pricey list. Hospitality here runs hot and cold, ranging from exceptionally honest bartending to slow or cold service on quieter nights.
