    I was passing through and was hungry for dinner. I checked yelp and google for good food in area and saw the Monrovia Lounge. Curious about west African food I ventured in. I loved the spacious seating and the decor seemed authentic. The dark atmosphere was reminiscent of a dark night. I was happily greeted by a server who welcomed me letting me know I could sit anywhere. He asked if I had eaten there before and walked to the artful photos of some of there dishes on the the wall. As a first time customer I was given an appetizer of sweet fried plantains with a side of a very spicy sauce. They were cooked to perfection. The sauce was delicious but too spicy for my delicate stomach. Many of the the dishes have shellfish like shrimp and since I'm allergic unfortunately I had to pass. I ordered the Jollof Rice with Chicken. A rice dish containing corn, peas, green/red/yellow peppers, onions green beans, sausage and chicken wings. The dish was served piping hot and smelled delightful. My first forkful was a surprise to my palate, a delicious flavorful mix of spices. The dish was a bit spicy but nothing severe and perfectly balanced. The amount of food was plentiful and typically I would have taken some togo but not this time. The service was on par with some of the best restaurants in NYC where I'm from. One of the managers came to my table, greeted and thanked me for my patronage. We spoke of our love for food and he spoke of many of there traditional dishes from Liberia. I was treated like a celebrity or family and loved every minute of my experience at the Monrovia Lounge. Kudos to great food and spectacular service !

    Ordered the Goat pepper soup through door dash went to warm it up & discovered a dead maggot this is disgusting.. & make my skin crawl.. this isn't my first time eating here I just hope there wasn't anything in my last soup .. my first soup tasted good that's why I decided to get more . Please pay attention to the food you eat .. after this no more eating out !!!! I thank god I seen this before I consumed it.

    The place we once called home. If ever imagined relaxing and refreshing your head, Monrovia Lounge is the place to hangout. Their customer service skills are off the chain.

    We have variety of different dishes on our menus.

    We had an incredible date night at Apothecary and can't wait to come back. We reserved seats on the…read moreAlchemy side, and it was such a fun, immersive cocktail experience from start to finish. The drinks were exceptionally creative and beautifully executed. My personal favorites were the I Dream of Kiwi and the Double Smash, but honestly, every cocktail we tried was delicious and thoughtfully crafted. You can tell a lot of care goes into both the flavors and presentation. The food was just as impressive. The Icelandic Hot Dog is an absolute must-order and was one of our favorite bites of the night. We also loved the Japanese Elotes, Lil Thuggies, Apo Burger, and a half dozen oysters. Everything was flavorful, unique, and perfect for sharing while enjoying cocktails. If you're looking for inventive drinks, great food, and a memorable atmosphere, Apothecary absolutely delivers. Highly recommend the Alchemy experience and already looking forward to checking out the Archive side on our next visit!

    I visited Apothecary on a Sunday evening -- the left side (the original, not the side that Rye used…read moreto occupy). A low-lit lounge and bar, a space that feels intimate and yet, the music playing from the speakers (not too loud, just there) gives it an expectant energy, too. It's the kind of place you enjoy being because it feels like an experience. I'm going to have a unique, well-made drink tonight in a cool spot. The cocktail menu seems like it's updated every season or so, the bartenders/creators' names featured on the cover. Very cool. Will definitely be back.
