Best Birthday Party
by rachnroll at Citysearch
I hosted my husband's 35th birthday party at The Uptown Lounge this past weekend. I worked with Eric and Dan; they were delightful to deal with. Our bartender, Kellyn, did a fantastic job. The main bar and dining room was packed, however we received great service from the staff and the undivided attention of the managers. The appetizers and pasta station were delicious. The price was reasonable, actually I would have paid more knowing what I know now. I highly recommend Uptown for parties or just a fun night out. Many Thanks!!
- Pros: skylight room is beautiful, awesome staff, great staff
- Cons: not a single thing
used to be better

i have been here for just drinks as well as sitting down for lunch. the bar experience was much better, though their drinks are overpriced. for lunch, got a simple cobb salad and food was not very fresh or tasty. its great for the neighborhood, but i dont think i'd go back.
- Pros: extensive wine list
- Cons: food, prices
disappointing
by nlb248 at Citysearch
Let me start by saying that I WANT to like this place. The atmosphere is great, drinks are strong and tasty, and it fills a niche in a neighborhood dominated by dives and sports bars. However, the abominable service makes Uptown Lounge nearly impossible to enjoy. I've been several times in the past couple months, and each time the service is worse than the time before, culminating in last night's visit when I found a sliver of glass in my martini. The waitstaff seemed unconcerned about this and did not apologize, even as I handed over the half inch shard. My drink was replaced, but not comped and I left with a lighter wallet and without any sympathy from the staff at Uptown Lounge.
- Pros: Great atmosphere, good food and drink
- Cons: horrible service
