I had the best time on my birthday February 15th, @ the AfroTón event (TLC - Tradition. Love. Culture) Black History Month #100year event ! It was from the afternoon into the evening . It was so festive: current Black events trivia ️, birthday singing to me , good food (even though you GOTTA break out your card because they don't accept cash ‍), getting to speak and BE a forum Speaker (even it was for 1 question) ?!?, dance how-tos, compliments , meeting new people, AND saw a cutie in the crowd - I had the best time!!! Thank you SOST for hosting. Keep me on the email list . I wish I could visit every month - SOST is beautifully constructed and has several floors: basement event space, floor level, second floor, (maybe a third?) The restrooms are also on the top floors. Planning a themed, close-knit fun event ? Have it here . Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Vegetarian offerings: Vegetarian menu or section, Clearly labelled vegetarian dishes Dietary restrictions: If you have dietary restrictions consult the Restaurant or Bar Staff.

I didn’t have food here, but my friends and I randomly stumbled into the bar. Our bartender took care of us. I’m always skeptical of those who make my specific favorite drink. I asked him if he can make it and he said “that’s easy” and he made it perfectly. Kebron thank you for making my drink perfectly! Thank you also for making my friends and I’s night amazing! We had a great time. If you’re looking for somewhere with great drinks, a good vibe and good music. This is the spot. Also when you come ask for Kebron he will make your drink PERFECTLY! Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
