Unwind and Uncork at Americana

Gather some friends and co-workers, take a load off after a long week and head to Americana for some champagne specials. Every Friday, the restaurant offers half-priced champagne and $4 champagne cocktails.

While enjoying your drinks and company, you'll notice the rustic and historic touch throughout the space. Americana occupies a former car dealership. Bright World War II-themed murals pay tribute to the midcentury cocktail generation, and the bar follows suit, with handcrafted libations. While the menu opens to American bar-grill favorites (steaks, burgers, pasta and small plates), many are tweaked with au courant culinary buzzwords—truffle fries, seared tuna with wasabi, and miso noodles.
