I'm looking for a place to grab dinner (sometime after 830). My requirements are simple: must have good food, must serve liquor. That is all. Cost isn't an issue, I can feel "at home" dining by myself pretty much anywhere, and so long as the food is excellent I'm not overly picky about the service. Welcome your recommendations!
