our beverage program parallels the philosophy of the menu – a modern twist on the classic american steakhouse.  the focus of the beverage program is on preserving classic and modern cocktails (while creating some innovative cocktails of our own) through the use of only the highest quality ingredients:

• we hand-squeeze our citrus juice daily
• we use premium, small batch cordials, which greatly improves the quality of all of our cocktails
• we pour all of our sodas and mixers from glass bottles (we use fever tree club soda, ginger ale, tonic water, and regatta ginger beer)
• we make many of our own bitters, tinctures, and syrups
• in the late spring & summer we use herbs from our garden

please be aware that because of this, many of our cocktails carry small supplemental charges, and may take a few minutes to create.
we recommend that you peruse all of the cocktails (which are broken down into broad categories), and then look at our selection of spirits before making a decision. please feel free to speak to your server or bartender for clarification on our products or cocktails.

Cheers!
Jamie and Duane
