But this place tots itself as one of the best places to get meatballs. The service here is REALLY good! Although it can be difficult to get in. So, if you can get in, you're going to get good service. This place is filled with dark leather, dark wood and dark lighting. If you're in the market for a fancy night, and you like to feel like you're a part of an exclusive club, this is the "secret" spot for you.

You need to dial a special code in the Red Phone Booth to enter. One of the employees shared the 3 most recommended drinks.

Thanks for booking this tour Doc.

Whiskey River Saloon is a high-energy honky-tonk on Broadway, with two floors and plenty going on…read more It's a really spacious spot with a big stage for live music and has a whiskey bar with an impressive selection of rare and premium whiskeys and bourbons. Whiskey River Saloon came up when we Googled places with mechanical bulls--which is honestly just as fun to watch as it is to ride. Drinks-wise, they have cocktails, beer, and seltzers. Prices felt about average for Broadway. I tried the "Cowboy Juice," which is a mix of Captain Morgan, melon liqueur, Malibu, pineapple juice, and sour mix--sweet and dangerously easy to drink. Overall, it's a great place to hang out!

I can't speak to the food or drinks, but I can speak to the service. The food is located on the…read morefourth floor, and an elevator is available to get you there. It was our first time visiting, and we weren't sure where to go. The security guard at the main door was very helpful and pointed us in the right direction. However, when we got upstairs, it was a different story. There was no one there to give us any direction, and we didn't see a sign stating whether we could seat ourselves. The place was a bit busy, but there was a section with about six empty tables. We chose to sit there so we could be near the fan since it was very humid yesterday. No one acknowledged that we had been seated, so when a waiter walked by to clear a table, I asked if it was okay for us to seat ourselves. He said yes, handed us menus, and walked away. No problem--I could tell it was busy and that he was running around, so I took no offense to him walking off. We waited about 10-15 minutes. No one offered us water or came over to greet us. The same waiter I had spoken to returned to our table carrying an empty pitcher, and I greeted him. In response, I got, "You know what you want?" I repeated my greeting, and he repeated his question. Mind you, he never introduced himself, so I have no clue what his name is. The only conversation we had before that was when he confirmed that we could seat ourselves. While I understand being overwhelmed or tired, I can't understand being met with such a rude disposition when I had done nothing to warrant that response. Needless to say, I didn't want someone who found greeting me to be an impossible task handling my food, so we left. He couldn't have cared less that we were leaving. He grabbed his pitcher and walked away before we did. They could have really good food and drinks, but I'll never know. My hope is that this was a one-off situation, but something tells me it's not. There's a bar on the first and fourth floors. The first floor is pretty open with minimal seating, so I'm assuming it's meant for dancing. They also have a live band set up on that floor. Lastly, thank you to the security guard. He was a tall guy with braids, and despite our brief interaction, he was the only person who made us feel welcome. Outside of that interaction, this place was disappointing.

Alley Taps is a historic speakeasy and live music bar located in Printers Alley. We came here after…read moreour experience at Pushing Daisies didn't pan out. We were looking for some drinks, good music, and an authentic vibe. Alley Taps is that and with its rustic, subterranean vibe with exposed brick and low lighting, it was definitely a less touristy alternative to the nearby Broadway honky-tonks. The Nick Cross band was on and they were very good. Even better were the 2 female singers that came on in the middle during a band member break. That only lasted 2 numbers and we were hoping for more. Nick also has a "potty mouth" with an occasional string of F-words coming out at odd times. But Holy Moly, could this band (especially the fiddle guy) play. If listening to the band wasn't your thing, the people watching was stellar. So was the Buffalo vs. Boston NHL playoff game on the TV. A fun night was had by all. And yes, we paid a nice tip via Venmo.

Then I had another couple, one as is, one subbing mezcal for tequila. Both great. As I has sat there looking at their selection of spirits I wondered if they had the ingredients to make my favorite tiki cocktail. I asked, Alex delivered. It had been six years since I had that cocktail and, while not having 100% of the ingredients, it was so damn close that it took me right back to the where and when I last drank it. Now that I know they can make it, I will be returning on a regular basis. This is a great dark and intimate location to bring a date or come solo. The folks that work there are friendly, talented and accommodating. Really great spot!

We went on a Sunday, and it was pretty slow, which actually made the visit even better. The staff had plenty of time to really walk us through the different whiskeys, share details, and answer questions, which made it feel much more personal and engaging. The tasting itself was fantastic. My favorite was the ginger rye; it was so unique and unlike anything I've had before. The pecan rye was also delicious, with a really smooth and slightly nutty flavor that stood out. Overall, it was a relaxed, informative, and really enjoyable experience. I'd definitely go back.
