I find myself in a constant state of “What the hell” when I’m at Newport on the LEvee. Great cinema, decent (but chain) restaurants, and shopping for 13 YEAR OLDS. They had the opportunity to really shine and they blew it. And don’t even get me started about the parking garage.

So it comes as no surprise that there is nowhere to get a drink late at night, even when they have all of those BARS there…insane.

I agree. As a life-long late nighter, it gets harder and harder and harder to find a place in this city.

You should see my friends & I trying to find a coffee shop that is convienient to use and open late as well.

It’s such an irony: people with the time and money to burn and you can’t find any where to chill and spend it.

I have stopped trying to go to Bar Louie after a string of frustrating experiences. These generally center on their marquee specialty drinks, specifically that they simply do not bother to stock ingredients printed on their menu. When we were presented drinks missing ingredients, server after server has told us (some more dismissively than others), “Oh, we never have that. I don’t know why it’s on the menu.” If people think that’s service, fine, but they won’t benefit from my custom.

Though I love Skyline on Ludlow, they don’t have alcohol. Nor does Dixie Chili or most any other diner/chili parlor.

I agree, but it is often much more convenient to go to the Skyline on Ludlow, which is open till 4 on the weekends.
