Several new restaurants and bars opened their doors this summer, with offerings including high-minded cocktail combinations and Chinese street food.
On Monday’s St. Louis on the Air, Sauce Magazine Executive Editor Meera Nagarajan praised the creative array of cocktails — and large patio — at the newly opened Maryland House by Brennan's. Patrons hoping to enjoy the cocktails and menu items at the speakeasy-style venue must first navigate through an alley, find an unmarked door and then ride an elevator to their destination.
The trip is worth it, Nagarajan said.
“It builds a little anticipation because it's not marked. It's not obvious. So it feels like you're an insider. And I think that's always fun.”
