I love the mix of 1-2 star and 5 star reviews The Casbah has. I'm going to put my vote for smackdab in the middle, with a solid 3 star review.\n\nDon't get me wrong. For fancy drinking, I adore this bar. The decor and the low-lit prettiness is very sexy. The drinks are overpriced, but well worth it. I had some seasonal cocktail once that had blackberry brandy, sherry, cream (and possibly other things), and two ripe blackberries floating on top, served in a martini glass. Since it's been 4+ years and that drink is still distinguishable from all other fancy drinks in my mind, you know it was a well spent $8. I have come to drink here many times and have enjoyed it thoroughly each and every time.\n\nThe eating, though? Not so much. The food was average at best, but very overpriced. I remember the restaurant being mostly dead, but service being slow. My overall opinion of The Casbah (which had been so high) dropped a lot that night.\n\nSo, go late for some nummy drinks. Skip dinner.
