Sovereign Remedies

My favorite part of this restaurant was the location, the large windows, and the cozy sitting area upstairs. The bathroom needs cleaning and updating. The food on the menu was not the same on line, so we were taking back with what was available. The fries were nothing special. The trout was OK but not worth the price. Our waitress constantly wanted to take our plate away before we were done. I saw her doing the same at another table. They were grabbing the last morsel as she was taking away the plate. She needs to be retrained. I was also disappointed at the cocktail that I received. It didn't have a balanced flavor. My boyfriend's drink was better and had a floating butterfly, which was a nice presentation. For a place that specializes in cocktails, it was very disappointing. Based on other reviews, maybe if we were sitting at the bar, we would get better drinks.

Our party of 7 stopped by for drinks at 7 pm after an early dinner on Friday, 5/17/24. Very cool place! Bar seating, some couch seating, and counter seating along the windows. There’s also an upstairs! We didn’t try the food, so this review is for drinks only. Here’s what I had: - Blue Ridge Blues ($15): Delicious. OMG it was so good. Highly recommend! - Truth or Consequences ($17): Also super good! - Revival Tour ($10): Very heavy on the beets. If you’re not a fan of beets, skip it. Otherwise, very good! I also tried the Blood Orange Espresso Martini—tasty and unique! Great place for upscale drinks! Highly recommend!

Perfect spot for a low key solo outing. I came here on Saturday night in the mood for a good cocktail somewhere new. It's in the heart of downtown, right across from the dueling piano bar and was about a mile from the hotel where I stayed. I found some street parking a block away. Luckily it was relatively warm so I didn't mind the walk over. Sovereign is dark but inviting and was pretty crowded as expected on a Saturday but I sat at the lounge/sofa area right up front and enjoyed my beverage while finishing up my most recent book. They have a bunch of great classic options as well as some creative offerings as well as standard beer and wine picks. I opted for the Now We Dance (tequila, triple sec, coconut milk, rosemary syrup, lime, smoked salt rim) and it did not disappoint. My server was nice and friendly and checked in on my a couple times before I was ready to close out. I was tempted to try the wine port, but I ended up checking out another spot instead. It’s pricey but worth every penny for the experience and flavor! I will definitely come back here though - they have a food menu too and a Sunday brunch that I would love to try next time.

The drinks are always fabulous here and it’s fun to try their inspired creations! Loved everything. The food is great too. I’d recommend letting their bartenders guide you so you can experience something new! Cheers!

A swanky cocktail bar with high-end, rotating drinks that often features live music. If any of that appeals to you, you have to visit. The And Now We Dance was a fantastic tequila-based drink that I will be having again the next time I can.

Cool dark spot downtown. We were able to sneak into 2 stools at the bar and try a couple drinks from the menu and then asked for some drinks not on the menu. The things in the menu were done well and looked great. The things we ordered off menu weren’t quite executed at a super high level but mostly enjoyable. Didn’t really see any unique or hard to find liquors on the half of the bar we could see, I think they could improve in that area. I recommend sticking to the menu for drinks here - syrups and bitters are there for what they can make on menu which is fair.

Portion size to price seemed all over the place. The kale salad was small, with very little going on except for a spicy "crouton" that overpowered anything else that might have been there. On the other side the coq au Vin was balanced, tasty, and a reasonable size. As a whole the food seemed busy and without focus. Seemed like there were 4 or 5 prominent flavors in the tort that were all competing. In the end it tasted like stuffing instead after having the mushrooms shine. The service was good, the meals were paced well and follow-up was consistent. The ambiance was nice and had some casual yet elegant touches.

While in town for business, several of us stopped in here for cocktails. Warren was excellent, he knew interesting cocktails which weren’t part of their menu, which was really appreciated. So, while they didn’t have Chartreuse, they did have maraschino liqueur to make Hemingway Daquiris! The vibe is fun and definitely that of a craft cocktail bar. I’d highly recommend stopping in, especially if in the mood for a nicely made craft cocktail!
