This place was also down the block from our Airbnb so we could walk there. They had a lot of boozy coffee drinks and I really like that. I decided to try their Espresso Martini. This was our last bar stop prior to going out to dinner with friends. My drink had a house made espresso, Absolut vodka, Borghetti (coffee liqueur), a rich simple syrup, and coffee beans. My drink was rich and delicious and I absolutely loved their espresso. I do not recall what drinks my friends ordered. By the time we were leaving there was plenty of people in the place and appeared there was some sort of event gathering. We will have to come back here and with all the coffee drinks they had this may well be the place to start our day next time.

There were 2 or 3 performers and they all kept it entertaining throughout the whole night, they even got the audience to sing along to some of the songs. One thing I like about this piano bar is that they had a big screen to show the songs in queue, and I could tell when they didn't know a song too well they looked it up on their tablets before starting. This was a huge plus for me since the last paino bar I went to didn't attempt to learn the songs and just skipped songs even though people paid for them to get played. Overall, it was a good experience!

From the moment I saw front of the building, I knew this was the right spot for the occasion. The facade put you in mind of an old Hollywood nightclub. We were greeted warmly by the owner, Rick, and seated. The interior of the establishment is a sight to behold. It is so beautifully and tastefully decorated and lit. With low lights, sumptuous decor and a baby grand in the corner, Ricky B's is really reminiscent of the old supper clubs my mom always described going to when she was much younger. Our server was friendly and very professional. Service was reasonably quick and accurate and she was elegant in appearance and in doing her work. We really enjoyed the appetizers. The Brussels sprouts were an absolute standout, flavorful with a bit of caramelization and we actually ordered a third plate when our second one began to disappear. My airline chicken entree was cooked to perfection. My husband enjoyed his burger. Prices were reasonable. The best part was being treated to the wonderful singing and playing from Rick. Rick and crew made it a truly special and unforgettable evening. We are all excited to return. Rick is a wonderfully gracious host.

The lounge seating setup was a little unconventional, but the staff quickly accommodated us when I mentioned a concern, which I really appreciated. The service was outstanding. I wish I could remember our server's name because he truly made the experience. He handled the entire lounge area by himself and never missed a beat -- personable, knowledgeable, attentive, and incredibly efficient. We ordered a few cocktails along with the hush puppies, Cajun calamari, and Brussels sprouts. The drinks were fantastic, and while the appetizers were good, they weren't quite memorable enough for us to reorder next time. That said, we're definitely planning to come back and explore more of the menu. Overall, I'd absolutely recommend checking out Black Rabbit for yourself. It's a great spot for either a romantic date night or a fun evening out with friends.

Since this restaurant has a speakeasy vibe, I thought it might be part of the schtick. However, I'm not sure how long the business has been open, so maybe the GPS was accurate. Our dinner host who made the reservation had told our group the "password" in order to be taken to our private dining room. When I arrived and approached the hostess stand, she took me via a convoluted route to the rest of the diners, no password required. I guess I was lucky because other diners in our group said they had to provide the password. We arrived during happy hour and it was also martini night, so several items from the appetizer menu (wings, spinach dip, tempura shrimp) and cocktail list were available for reduced price. I ordered tempura shrimp (5 pieces) and a glass of Malbec. The shrimp were bland and were served with a sweet chili sauce that was cloyingly sweet with absolutely no heat. I ended up ordering a bourbon roasted pear salad as my main. It was a better choice with buttery lettuce, chunks of firm pear, crunchy walnuts, and pickled red onions. One of my fellow diners had to wait for her first course appetizer to arrive well after the rest of us had finished ours, as it was either overlooked by waitstaff or the kitchen. Service was slow at times, although the place appeared at not even 1/2 capacity when we arrived and possibly 2/3 when we left 2 hours later. Another diner ordered pizza and said that the toppings were good, but commented that the texture of the crust (underdone) made it unpalatable. Finally, another person in our group had to send her food back to be heated. She indicated the plate was warm, but the food (pot roast Manhattan) was not. Final bill was just under $50 (happy hour shrimp $10, wine $11, salad $18, and an automatic 20% gratuity had been added). Upon reflection, I would perhaps return here for a cocktail to enjoy the lounge and live jazz when that is offered. I would be very hard pressed though to order any food, as there are many more valuable and appealing options nearby at this price point.

The A/C was down (heat wave week, it's fixed, y'all so don't worry), but that didn't stop the staff from hustling! And bless those cooks in that kitchen-I can't imagine. I got a gin and tonic. Solid. And hot honey chicken tenders, chips with queso and salsa. The queso was really delicious, creamy, smooth with a hint of spice. And the tenders... do y'all brine them?? Because they were really tender and delicious. The energy was great. It would be easy to host this kind of thing but roll your eyes and begrudge us (and our HYPE), I have seen this happen elsewhere, but here, they really, really embraced it.
