Midnight Cowboy is a unique and intimate speakeasy-style restaurant located in the heart of the city. The establishment boasts a cool and cozy ambiance, with a lovingly restored brothel-inspired interior that maintains many of its original features.
The drinks menu at Midnight Cowboy offers a range of creative cocktails, including the Midnight Cowboy, a mezcal-based drink similar to a margarita, and the Expletive, a soft yet interesting concoction. While the drinks are generally well-received, some reviewers have noted that the prices are on the higher side, especially considering the 20% service charge that is automatically added.
The service at Midnight Cowboy has received mixed reviews. Some guests have praised the friendly and attentive staff, who are knowledgeable about the menu and aim to please. However, others have reported slow service, with long waits to place orders and receive their drinks. In a few instances, the staff have been described as less than engaging, with some reviewers feeling that they were the subject of mockery by the bartender and another waiter.
Overall, Midnight Cowboy seems to offer a unique and enjoyable experience, with its atmospheric setting and creative cocktails. While the service may be hit or miss, the establishment is worth a visit for those seeking a memorable speakeasy-style outing.
