Day 365 – Harvelle’s Blues Club

Day 357 – Tar & Roses
All I can say is "no thanks." While the bartender was nice, this is probably in the bottom 10 of places that I would go to. First off, there is no hard booze. It's primarily wine with maybe a dozen beers ...
Day 354 – Cassia
I have to say this is one of my least favorite spots that I've ever been to. It started off fine, I walked in and I was the only one at the bar. I asked for the drink menu and asked what the bartender recommended ...
Day 351 – Casa Martin
So if you've been following my site, you'll see that I have gone to quite a few Mexican bar/restaurants this year. There have been many that were the typical mainstream Americanized Mexican restaurants ...

Day 345 – Esters Wine Shop & Bar
I wasn't planning on going to this place but it was right next door to a place called Cassia but they were out of several items so I went next door to this place. The bar was pretty packed, the drinks were just so-so ..
Day 343 – Sonoma Wine Garden
Sonoma Wine Garden is obviously mostly a wine spot, but they do have a full bar. The place is nice, and if you get the right seating you can view the Santa Monica beach. I think this is a good place for girls to ...
Day 341 – Native
I was pretty impressed with this place. When I was doing my yearly list of bars to go to, this one didn't show up so I wasn't aware of it until I did a new search today. It's swanky, beautiful decor, looks like an ...
