There's often live music and cheap drinks good to pair with a pizza. Bar is unassuming from the outside. Entrance is the same as Hounddog's. You actually have to go through the restaurant to get there. At night there's usually a security guard checking IDs at the point you go between. They also might charge a cover when there's live music. It seems most nights there isn't. That's okay because you can get cheap drinks, which helps with the pizza since that's kind of pricey. Overall it's the best of this cluster of bars. Each bar has it's own sense of cool. The other ones aren't attached to a kickass pizza place though.

The room is a bit dark and the small candle on each table is definitely not enough light to read the menu. Make sure you have your phone for light. I am Deaf but my girlfriend loves jazz so I like to take her to places she's never been before. She loved the music so that was great! We ordered the hummus and they gave you plenty of it. I ordered the octopus and for $28 it was definitely not worth it nor was it delicious. They give you two small pieces. If I knew that I would have never ordered it. Plus it was not cooked properly. Octopus is my favorite food and I have many years of experience ordering it and cooking it myself. This was very disappointing. The one woman server did a good job managing about 10 couples herself. I would return but I would think twice about ordering dinner here.

I wanted to try something different and landed on Palmas. There were a lot of good options here,…read morebut I ended up ordering a burrito. I also ordered some fried plantains, an order of guacamole, churros, and their gluten-free little cornmeal macarons (the latter individually wrapped to respect those with strong gluten allergies). When it arrived (ordered via UberEats) I was amazed by the size and quantity of the food. The burrito was massive! I was quite hungry when I ordered it but couldn't eat more than half of it (had it the next day, talk about cost-efficient). The fried plantains also had my heat. Simple, not too greasy, tasty, and still warm when I received them. The churros were also great, I love the chocolate and lèche dips they had for them. Just crispy enough on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. The gluten-free macarons were also sweet and tasty. The only complaint I have on the order was that there were no chips included in the guacamole order. I was a little confused on that because their picture included chips but the description didn't, but there was no option to purchase chips separately either. That's the one drawback, but honestly it's so small in comparison to how tasty everything else was. I can't wait to go back.

Each to-go bottle was equivalent to 2 drinks and came with a bag of chips. Now that's both cute and awesome. Yesterday we came in after moving into the neighborhood and enjoyed the back patio. What a nice place to spend an evening. Spacious yard with plenty of tables and seating. There was a tarot reader last night too so you could sign up to have a reading. We sat with our pup and enjoyed a couple drinks each while decompressing from a busy weekend of unpacking and settling in. Ordered the goodnight sweet prince which was mezcal with chartreuse, lime, Prosecco, pea flower (which I learned is purple ha). I wanted the drink not sweet and the bar must have run out of syrup for me lol. It was perfect without it. More on tart side but that's how I like it. Second drink was a negroni with dry vermouth. Predictable and always a fave for me. I also tasted a barrel aged whiskey just for fun and it's saying a a lot that I could sip it. I normally cannot drink whiskey but this tasted amazing and too easy to drink. Creative and interesting drinks for a good price. They have beer and wine too if you're not into cocktail. And cbd drinks too! They really have it all. I had to ask the bartender if the wine prices were glass or bottle (we are used to $17-$20 glasses in Seattle) and to my very pleasant surprise learned they are bottle prices. I also saw they had $5 negronis during happy hour and that really spoke to me. We will return often.
