Ashford & Simpsons Sugar Bar: 6% back
If you want sweet, Ashford & Simpson's Sugar Bar can satisfy that tooth. Of course you can fill up on your sugar intake anywhere, but the Sugar Bar offers a different kind of sweet. "Sweet" here refers to music, soul-stirring riffs, runs and melodies in a cozy environment with delectable cuisine you can only find here. Presenting a fresh alternative to the mundane, the Sugar Bar is an intimate full-service restaurant showcasing local and international talent from R&B/soul, jazz, and Caribbean to traditional African rhythms. Take one step beneath a canopy of forged brass into the 2,400 square foot boite and you will be magically transported into the exotic Pan-Africanism of the Sugar Bar. Intimately immersed in big flavors, live music and performances and the signature Sugartinis, an evening here might begin at the watering well where specialty cocktails and a selection of cultural appetizers set the mood and whet the appetite. You can enjoy your dinner in the main dining room where every table has an excellent view of the stage or in the more intimate setting of the enclosed garden. You can also enjoy a prixe-fixe three-course dinner Tuesday-Friday from 5:30-7 p.m. for only $19.95 per person. Since opening, the Sugar Bar has been host to various celebrities such as: Bruce Willis, Stevie Wonder, Luther Vandross, Michael Douglas, Patrick Ewing and Eddie Murphy just to name a few. Enjoy 2 for 1 drinks during Happy Hour which runs from Tuesday to Friday, 5-7:30 p.m.
