You can order by the glass or grab one of many bottles out of their cooler. They have lots of natural wines and you can stay in your comfort zone or jump way out. They also have good little snacks so you aren't eating on an empty stomach. There's nothing fancy about the seating area - just grab a seat wherever and hang out. Definitely want to go back next time I am in SA!

We popped in before a show at Paper Tiger. The place was bustling with people inside and outside,…read morebut we managed to snag indoor seating. I was happy to see there were NA options for me. I picked one and was offered a glass with ice. I felt like I was part of the party. On this particular night, the play list was my 7th grade dream. It was so much fun. Definitely noted for future shows across the street. I prefer to pregame here away from the smoking scene.

I accompanied my friend for the first time at Happy Hour at Ladino :D ! I have to admit that I had…read morenot noticed this gem of a restaurant at the Pearl until my Yelp Elite friend introduced me here :) ! Apparently, she has been here many times already with her husband and some of their good friends :) ! We came on a Friday before the Happy Hour specials ended at 6:30 pm this :) ! I loved my Aphrodite Spritz :D ! My friend ordered the Athena Dion and the Santorini Bikini :) ! For our Happy Hour dishes, we ordered the Tirshi (butternut squash, harissa, and pepita chili crisp), the Dakos (marinated Texas heirloom tomatos, sourdough croutons, black olive salt, tulum and fresh Za' atar) and the Olive Oil Cake :) ! We really loved how a lot of the cocktail drinks and delicious dishes are Greek - themed ;) ! Our waiter was extremely attentive, friendly and prompt :) ! The ambiance is absolutely perfect for anyone to eat there solo, or with friends and family :) ! There is seating both outside and inside. For my first time there, we sat outside on the second level. If it wasn't so hot and humid, it would have been nice sitting outside. I would have preferred to sit inside during the summer. Except when we went, it was already early Friday evening, and most of the indoor seating at the bars and tables were taken. I would highly recommend this Mediterranean restaurant to anyone :D ! Their Happy Hour prices are extremely reasonable :) ! Although, I wouldn't mind coming back for their regular non-Happy Hour dining too :D !

Had a fantastic dinner at Ladino. Everything we ordered was delicious, especially the fire roasted…read morecorn, shishbarak, and the Saganaki. The pita was incredible and worth ordering. I also had the spicy passionfruit mezcal cocktail (The Prophet), which was excellent. The service was friendly and welcoming from everyone we interacted with, and the staff even called us right away when we accidentally left something at our table. Bonus points for easy free street parking nearby and a great location for walking around the Pearl before dinner. Great food, great value, and we'll definitely be back.

If you are in the mood for a quick cocktail to take with you as you walk around in The Pearl area…read moreyou need to come here to Park Bar. Service is super quick here especially if you are trying to grab something quickly and continue your exploration around this area. The price point on the cocktails and beers here are super reasonably especially for the area. Happy Hour is daily too so don't sleep on going over here to grab a drink or a canned beer The colorful menus draw you in besides the charm of the nicest bartenders here. There is a drink for every drinker here that includes non-alcoholic (NA) drinks as well so don't be shy. If you see something on the menu that calls you get it. Your drinks will be carefully created right in front of you and with the freshest herbs (like lavender and dry fruits) and juices you can find on this side of 281. My friend and I ended up getting a couple of drinks off their seasonal menu. I got a lavender lemonade and she opted for an Aperol spritz cocktail that we took outside to enjoy the sunshine while daydreaming about living inside The Pearl. The amount of history in this building where the Park Bar is located is remarkable and fascinating. It was super cool to be drinking in such a historic building that used to be a bottling department that would bottle the beers back in the day.

Joe deserves a shoutout…read more We were a table of 6 (3 adults and 3 kids), and I'm fully aware we were THAT table. We asked for a million extra things, had constant drink refills, and seemed to remember something else every time Joe walked by. Not once did he seem annoyed. He was friendly, patient, and somehow always one step ahead of us--our drinks never sat empty, and he made sure we had everything we needed before we even had to ask. Good food brings you in, but great service is what makes you come back. Joe made our lunch so much more enjoyable. Thanks for putting up with our chaos!

Our bartender/server Dominic was awesome and kept the drinks coming all night. They have a variety of light bites and bar foods and our table really enjoyed the pizza, fried pickles, and loaded potato skins. We came in around 7:30 and were happy to learn that Happy Hour lasted until 8 - half off bottles! The music they were playing was great and the vibe was great! They have a really cute aesthetic going on. My friends and I will definitely be coming back for a future girl's night out!

Even with that, the bartender took good care of us as we had to sit outside. I normally like sitting outside, but this area seems like an afterthought and like you're not part of the party. They came and got us when there was space inside, so we still had a fantastic time. When it cleared out, it really cleared out! We started with a sampler and loved all of them. My friend is a member and by the end of our time there, I joined also! All the wines were so delicious. Also, the owner was walking around greeting everyone...I always like that, as it makes you feel valued.

The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming--perfect for catching up with friends or treating yourself after a long day of being amazing.
