    Never got it. It was closed. Don’t post reservation times if the establishment isn’t even open for the day.

    Loved my experience at Ellis. Went for happy hour (starts at 3!) and ended up staying most of the night. They have frozen cocktails and shareable pitchers, warm and knowledgeable staff, and the ambiance of sitting beneath the huge oak felt like such an escape from the surrounding bustle of downtown. Grabbed some things from Fareground, listened to some live music and can’t wait to come back.

    Ellis is NOT a restaurant. It doesn’t even take reservations. It’s a pretentious bar where you can seat yourself and get up to walk across the venue for your own overpriced drinks. $24 for two old fashioned from bar tenders who don’t know how to make them. They can poured from a tap into stemless wine glasses with ice chips.
