    Views from sitting by the bar

    South Western atmosphere, Good food, nice staff, delicious cocktails, specialized whisky selection snuggled into a strip mall location. The kitchen turns out quality food from a small, but distinguished menu with daily specials. There's no fried food here, which keeps it smelling nice & allows you to notice the smoke on the cocktails. They use actual smoke to make the Old Fashioned cocktails here. There's a wall of whiskeys with decent prices. The strip mall provides ample parking, but don't let the outside fool you. There's Southwest, rustic decor inside with antlers & a live-edge wooden bar. The patrons are usually nice & easy to interact with

    Tucked into Gresham Promenade, this whiskey bar is a true hidden gem. The ambiance is both elegant and cozy. The whiskey selection is nothing short of extraordinary. Whether you're a connoisseur or a casual sipper, they have a variety of high end whiskeys hard to come by in the area. The BBQ-inspired small menu gives you the flavors of their sister bar Bandits, and their specials are always amazing! The staff is friendly and always bringing you new and exciting cocktails or bringing in the classic hard to come by whiskeys! The bar strikes a perfect balance between high-end and approachable. Whether you're here for a special occasion or just to unwind after a long day, The Annex is the spot to be!

    It's a nice place in a strip mall. A bit on the small which makes the music they play very loud inside. It was suppose to be karaoke night but no one seemed into it. The person running it never really kicked things off. Maybe it was better after I left but no one sang the first hour. There were a lot of tiny mats flying around the bar as well. I liked the drink and will go back sometime and try the food.

    Smoked Old fashion!

    It's a long climb to get to the restaurant, but unfortunately we made it. Huge room, including the…read morebar, and not very warm, maybe sitting by the window wasn't such a good idea. I ordered one of their burgers and paid an extra $3.00 for 5 onion rings. That's pretty expensive and they weren't that good. The burger looked beautiful on the plate, but one bite and the entire thing fell apart. I then asked for a fork and finished it sans the bun. Not the way to eat a burger. My girl friend's food was a gooey Mac and cheese with charezo cut up on top, felt like it was an afterthought, and maybe it shouldn't be mixed in. Any way, with tip and one glass of house wine the check was close to $60.00. Pretty steep for average food. We won't darken their doorway again.

    I apologize: for this first impression. My wife and I scouted it out today as a neighborhood…read moreeatery. I am a disabled veteran confined to a power chair so access is critical. The front entrance had no ramp, just a series of multiple concrete stairs and no disabled parking on main. We drove around to the back. We found a large dirt uneven parking lot. I have an all terrain chair but don't like to take it inside buildings. I assume the back door was accessible but we couldn't tell because there was a large ladder in front of the door. We came home and started reading the reviews on this site and I was caught off guard by the mgr. responses to criticism. They were long, caustic and overly defensive. Sad to say I guess we'll remain with olive Garden.
