Let me start by saying that I WANT to like this place. The atmosphere is great, drinks are strong and tasty, and it fills a niche in a neighborhood dominated by dives and sports bars. However, the abominable service makes Uptown Lounge nearly impossible to enjoy. I've been several times in the past couple months, and each time the service is worse than the time before, culminating in last night's visit when I found a sliver of glass in my martini. The waitstaff seemed unconcerned about this and did not apologize, even as I handed over the half inch shard. My drink was replaced, but not comped and I left with a lighter wallet and without any sympathy from the staff at Uptown Lounge.
Pros: Great atmosphere, good food and drink
Cons: horrible service
