Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The Playlist covers a lot of ground without hiding the prices. Signature cocktails run $10–$18, including Stacy's Mom with pineapple, OJ, and vodka, and The Empresss with Empress Gin, apple, and elderflower. A Top Shelf spirits section spans rum through cognac, with upgrades available on request. Wines by the glass are $9, bubbly starts at $6, eight beers are $7, and mocktails are $6. The result is a beverage program built for range and easy comparison rather than a single narrow specialty.
- What should I order?
- Start with a named signature cocktail such as The Empresss or Stacy's Mom, or build from the Top Shelf spirits list. If you want something lighter, the mocktails are $6, and the beer list offers eight options at $7.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Groups who want different things from one menu: cocktail drinkers, spirit upgraders, beer traditionalists, wine-by-the-glass drinkers, and anyone ordering a mocktail. The range suits mixed tables better than a single-focus program would.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Signature cocktails $10–$18, margaritas $12, Long Islands $15–$22, Top Shelf spirits $8–$20, wine by the glass $9, bubbly $6–$12, bottles $30, beer $7, mocktails $6.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The menu pairs a broad signature cocktail list with a Top Shelf spirits section and an explicit upgrade path: guests can ask their server to add Patron, Grey Goose, or another listed spirit to a cocktail.
