It's a very tough business in a city with many good places to eat and drink. But I hope that will not be the case. It appears they are doing well by starting out with strong and unique theming and including high quality (although very complex) and good tasting cocktails. That's an excellent way to start and make success more likely. About "good cocktails" -- I can't tell you how many times I have to hold myself back from telling people in some of my Facebook groups how the places they like to drink really suck (to me) at making good tasting cocktails. Sweetener + juices + booze alone is not what makes a cocktail truly sing.
