The interior of Lustig is gorgeous, wood beams and frames, concrete walls, lighting. Cocktails interesting and consistent with cuisine. I had the spicy pear martini, delicious. Schnitzel and sides, spaetzle, red cabbage and sauerkraut, were beyond expectations. For desert, highly recommend the kaiserschmarren .

It is with a heavy heart that we bid our favorite "go-to" farewell. I have been going to Eveleigh since it took over from Kenneth Cole. I brought my now-wife there for one of our earliest dates, and we have been going there on the regular ever since. Great job, Eveleigh. We will miss you terribly.
