We ended up at Packer’s Lounge, the bar/casual restaurant at the Semiahmoo resort. It was passable, in a nice setting, if unspectacular. Service was friendly and informal. I had a cup of jambalaya (sp?), which was fine by...

The Majestic Steakhouse is downtown (Broadway around 10th). Great atmosphere, cigar lounge upstairs, music below, tiled floors and KC-ish murals on the walls of the main dining floor. The Savoy is a tradition, too, in the old chop...

surrounds and nice people. Wonderful scallop dish with a warm sauce made from seawater and scotch whisky...magic!

Nihon Whiskey Lounge does a nice Uni shooter, I believe uni and a couple other things served in a chinese-food type ceramic spoon. Ino sushi has had some killer uni at times, but I don’t think you can go in there and just...

Room 4 Dessert is excellent. I recommend the Choco Bubbles and Whisky Coca desserts. Voyage to India and the Apple tasting menus are very good too. Chikalicious, in my opinion, is too precious, and, if possible, more difficult a...

I am moving into the area from San Francisco and wanted to know if there were any really good tail Lounges I could hang my hat with a cool vibe and awesome drinks. Any suggestions from my new neighbors?

for lounge chairs and small tables. Not sure if they have a bar menu, but I’d be happy to sit at the bar and munch on their fries all night. Our server was on top of things, bringing us a nice bread plate soon after we...
