Ladies and Gentlemen - A Cocktail Experience

Ladies and Gentlemen sits in a basement below a food hall of pressed-juice and ice cream stalls on Colorado Boulevard, reached through an entrance owner Leo Temory won't describe in advance. Black walls carry erotic and BDSM-inspired art alongside more than 4,000 gold skulls, and an open kitchen puts the bar staff, who prefer 'drink designers' to bartender, on display. The menu runs to Japanese milk bread with sweet and savory butters and a salmon crispy rice, alongside cocktails like the Burning Man, served with a small wooden figure set on fire tableside. It's closed Monday through Wednesday; reservations are recommended.
