#1402 #S856 - Tommy Gun, Seattle - 3/28/2011

Update: Tommy Gun closed Jan 17, 2015

A darkly wooded bar that is envisioned as the go-to neighbor bar for the Capitol Hill Light Rail Station. The decor and drinks have very slight nods to the prohibition and gangster eras.  The servers are nice and willing to experiment with your drinks, but despite the themes, the bar seems rather unremarkable -- like a Linda Derschang bar without the budget to fill it full of animal heads and vintage signs.  It will be interesting to see how much it thrives in a neighborhood with so many other choices.

The bar is really an afterthought here -- the place is really about the food, a revolving set of quite good menu items on the various blackboards.
