The editorial take
The cocktail list here is built around seven named signature drinks with full ingredient detail, and it leans tropical and frozen. The Rum Runner combines light, dark and spiced rums with blackberry brandy, banana liqueur and tropical juices, finished with Don Q 151 and limited to three per person. The Big Woody Bloody Mary arrives as a signature Bloody Mary with shrimp, a lobster claw, a cheese stick, celery, cucumber, a beef stick and a blue cheese stuffed olive. Branded spirits run through the list, including Captain Morgan, Captain Morgan Parrot Bay, Bacardi Superior, Don Q 151 and Midori.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Rum Runner, the menu's self-described "the #1 Cocktail!" — a frozen blend of light, dark and spiced rums with blackberry brandy, banana liqueur and tropical juices, topped with Don Q 151 and limited to three per person. For a savory alternative, the Big Woody Bloody Mary carries a full garnish spread.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Drinkers who want a frozen, rum-forward signature cocktail with a branded-spirit backbone, and anyone who treats a heavily garnished Bloody Mary as the reason to order one.
