Just wanted to give a plug to this bar if you haven't already tried it. It's not clear to me why they still put up brown paper during the day and remove it at night, but my husband and I have been there a couple of times and had a good time. The space is beautiful, the bartenders attentive and they have a really, really nice garden area out back. I'm not sure what the deal is regarding whether they are still in a soft opening 6 mos later (only open Thur-Sun) or serving food, but I recommend you check it out.

PADNA hosted the DCNA holiday party here. beautiful space, great service.

kitchen was not (still not) open (approvals).

I was excited for this place at first - nice looking patio and I'm all about tapas and wine. But now months later they still are not serving food regularly, and every time I go in there the service is abominable. I'm generally pretty patient with bartenders, but on more than one occasion I've been completely ignored by the woman behind the bar when there were literally fewer than 5 people in the room.

One of my friends has already written the place off after similar experiences. I'm hoping they find some decent bartenders once they're fully open.

I was there a few times on weekend. It was mixed crowd. Late 20 to 30's, mixed race. definitely more douchy guys than other bars in downtown.

I will frequent more when they have tap and food.

Oh, cool. So it will be a tapas place? Does it seem more bar-oriented or more restaurant-oriented?

Two doors east of the tattoo shop on first off Newark Ave. No sign.

Well ... where the heck is this place?? Any more detailed info? This is the first time I've heard of it.

Been a few times. Really nice space and great patio. Very different from all the other watering holes downtown. Def a nice addition.

Tried searching on this place within JCList and came up empty handed.

Has anyone visited?

I've got their spot all reserved on a site of mine, but their hours don't mesh with my availability. Walked by daytime the other day and caught a phone number that was no good. Their facebook page cleared things up on the contact side, but no answer... rightly so, their biz hours are only select days of the week.

Anyhow, they're close to my house and they're within a range that my busted hoof can amble over to. Any rationale as to why I should review this place with celerity is appreciated.
