Great bar! My partner and friend took me there to celebrate my birthday and the service was amazing. I tried 2 different drinks, one better than the other, and more importantly, the music was at a level that you could both enjoy the tunes and the conversation.

This was our second visit to Two 88 Bar And Kitchen and our food choice did not disappoint as it was delicious. The atmosphere was soothing and my wife loved listening to the background music play list. Will definitely return for more food and drinks when visiting the City.
