Scottsdale was Sweet and done in a sleek modern style that I can drink with just fine.



Atmosphere vs Drinks, Lets face it, the drinks will be as good as the bartender and the bartender will be as good as the management. You hire a good bartender and he or she...."gets it" and hopefully has enough aptitude and/or interest in educating themselves in a bit of "lore" you got it made. In a place like Vegas a top notch bartender at a TV could make a name for themselves. I believe the Bartender from TV in Chicago has done pretty well.
For me, the drinks are as important as the Atmosphere but the place also has to have some personality to interact with. Most of the time I am by myself when I am travailing and enjoy the interaction at the bar. If the bartender is clueless or a doorknob that really detracts from the place. I have been to some really nice Tiki Bars and had a lousy or boring time because of the apathetic staff.

By the way, if the Wahine would let me I would apply for the position and move there myself!
