The Scene – Ferns, flickering gas lights and fountains adorn the patio; inside is more like a tavern, with dark wood and framed newspaper clippings that reinforce the restaurant's theme.

Editor's Tips

What to Drink:
Try the Blanche martini. Made with Smirnoff Apple, Stoli Vanil, Apple Pucker, ButterShots and Razzmatazz, it's sure to bring back your Southern drawl.
When to Go:
The weekend build-your-own-bloody-mary bar is legendary. But feel free to sleep in on Sunday since local law prohibits alcohol sales until noon.
