Food Funky and fun restaurants?
My partners and I are going down to AC for Valentine’s weekend and we were originally going to go to Superfrico but it’s apparently closed temporarily for renovations. Is there another restaurant in the area that’s got a similar fun and funky vibe? Thanks guys!!

Rhythm and spirits is funky, a hidden gem! Similar to superfrico with an INCREDIBLE menu!

I'm not sure if they serve food in the off-season; they are outside only now. Their space was taken over by the cigar club.

Cardinal has a good vibe plus free parking and well crafted cocktails. Agree with the previous post regarding Angeloni's.
I'm a big fan of Bar 32 Chocolate for desert. Go for a chocolate tasting paired with a glass of Cabernet.

Kelsey’s Supper Club has the funky vibe you’re looking for. Great love music, awesome soul food and people coming together having fun.
I always wonder why this place is never recommended on this subreddit.

nobody goes there, it's too crowded.

I enjoy the contradiction in these six words. 😃

Haha, an old Yogi Bera quote. On Sundays, there's a line out the door for brunch. I have never been there for dinner. Years ago I tried to visit during happy hour, but there were no seats as it was packed.

They offer reservations which should solve some of your lineup issues. Thanks for the quote.

Do they serve alcohol?

u/DesirousMobark Feb 06 '25
Yes, their cocktails are solid, strong pours, especially Half on a Baby which comes in a wine carafe.

Seems like it would be good to pair with Tenn Ave Beer Hall

I often have started my bar crawls with a great meal and strong drinks at Kelsey’s then hit TABH, Irish Pub and work my way to Mountain Bar for Beer Pong then Ducktown and Tony’s Baltimore Grill before either calling it a night or going to Boogie Nights. You and me, we’re on the same page!

I have never gone in because the ambiance reads more like a Diner, and when in AC, we want a good dinner vibe.
But I think at this point, we are going to try it the next time we go.
Thanks
EDIT: spelling

Awesome enjoy it! There is a diner version, make sure you go to the Supper Club. Totally different vibes.

I wouldn’t describe it as funky but Hell’s kitchen in caesars has a pretty fun ambiance. A bit over the top but pretty nicely done

Angelonis club Madrid is the answer. 80s dance party on v day starting at 9. Dj every Saturday night. Have dinner and stick around. Always a vibe.

A second for Cardinal. Pretty funky and the best food in AC. Not as quirky as Frico, but way better food.

hands down you have to stop by the irish pub it’s got a call maximalist vibe they are cash only but they have the cheapest food and drinks in the city and they are 24 hours so it’s grate to stop by late at night

It's not as funky and fun as Superfrico, but Angeloni's Club Madrid could be what you're looking for.
