At 5 pm, a clothing store called the Discount Suit Company closes - and then the fun begins.
Downstairs, through a side door, a small hidden bar comes alive.
As a bar, the Discount Suit Company is a winner, with whip-smart bartenders concocting masterful drinks.
The basement scene is warm and welcoming, reminding of us of an old tavern or speakeasy. Think brick walls, low-hanging wooden beams and dim lights.
It doesn't hurt that the music is aces. When we were there a DJ pumped out an array of scintillating R&B tracks.
One favorite pulsing through the speakers: Mary Wells' "Can't You See (You're Losing Me)."
This is a very good stop - well worth it for a drink and a little hip shake.
Reservations strongly encouraged.
