The Lobbyist

Located inside The Chisca on Main apartment building, this restaurant is just as well-known with locals for its cocktails and after-dinner drinks as for dinner itself. Try inventive creations like the Grand Gold—mezcal, Amaro Montenegro, pineapple, cinnamon, Szechuan peppercorn, lime—for a bright, smoky punch. And take in the cozy yet refined retro vibe, which pays homage to the building’s first life as a hotel in 1913. If you’re nearby between 5 and 7pm, their Patio Hour deals are a must.
