33 - What a Great Surprise!

The Art Bar staff headed to 33 for the evening this Friday and were pleasantly surprised! I have eaten here before, and let's just say I wasn't impressed. I much preferred neighboring restaurant Bomboa, whose interesting blend of Franco-Brazilian fare always is a treat for the palette. But on Friday night, 33 put out!

I was only going to comment on the dancing/clubbing aspect of the restaurant, but the food is just too good to omit. Without going into detail, the meals were excellent! The taste and quality was superb, and the truffled macaroni and cheese is to die for. A bit on the pricey side, with most meals matching the restaurant's name in cost, 33 nonetheless was worth the price.

Come for the food, stay for the lounge. After your dinner, head downstairs and have an enjoyable night of dancing, drinking and NOT being surrounded by barely 21 year olds and immature college girls. While you can definitely tell you are in a basement and it's not a place for the claustrophobic, the lounge at 33 can be a welcome place of solace compared to the "Roxyplex" and Lansdowne clubs. Check out the lounge's website and pick the night that's right for you!
