Gonna be in the Mt. Washington area for a holiday cocktail party this weekend. What’s nearby where we can hit dinner with a full bar beforehand? Herman’s is a no go…no reservations available at 5.

Barra Santos, Capri Club

Also Colombo’s.

Sams Place is mostly wine. The food menu is really limited fyi. Such a nice spot.

Mt Washington is a cool hillside neighborhood. Not much food in comparison to nearby Highland Park. A craftsman home in NELA is my dream home!

Amiga Amore is another option with cocktails/wine

Oh there’s also Checker Hall, next to Lodge Room. I went once and I thought it was good, though that was a while ago. Also full bar.

Does Hippo have full bar?

An aside: Last visit there was probably last visit. After three times I still thought for price pasta was just okay

Thanks, all!

Looking for a full bar so Barra Santos and Dunsmoor are probably out. Also…when did the Dunsmoor cornbread hit $21 for an order and the main entree of Pennsylvania Dutch Slippery Dumplings is the most affordable starting at $53? The trout and pork chop are $65 and $67, respectively. That’s wild.

Sam’s and Capri Club’s menus seem pretty short.

Winner might be Checker Hall, HIPPO or Amiga Amore.

Hahaha, have you watched the movie Good Fortune? Aziz Ansari has a great scene along that theme filmed at Dunsmoor.

Try walking into Hermon’s. Bar should be walk in only.
