  • This is consistently busy and looks like it should be a great bar. Given this, the atmosphere tends often to be a little disappointing, the house band is not quite as good as many others, and widely spread tables seem to militate against a more intimate atmosphere of somewhere like Café París. Worth a pit stop on Obispo but not a destination place.
