Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
The waterfront restaurant and bar with a stunning horseshoe-shape bar centerpiece pays homage to America's most iconic spirit—bourbon—with a wall of whiskeys and a lineup of specialty cocktails. The menu, crafted by Charles Phan of Slanted Door fame, is an ode to New Orleans cuisine and includes spicy pork-belly cracklings, BBQ oysters, must-try Nashville hot fried chicken, and other fun snacks.
