There was a reserved section in the bar itself (there is a patio) that one could only sit in with "permission" from the manager. This was about 1/2 the available seats which were mostly empty for those 4 hours. I am a people watcher so after about 4 hours of observing a very restrained staff, and limited patron interaction, I left. However, the Mojitos are fabulous.

At the Davidoff bar a complete opposite, friendly outgoing staff that were there to ensure a great drink and cigar experience. People mingling and strangers discussing cigars, drinks, the election, the Aficionado Big Smoke, and whatever else. I met people from Iceland, Sweden, GB, Germany and Italy, and virtually every state in the US.

If I ever go back I will check out the others again, however I suspect that my evenings will be at Davidoff.

Had a similar experience at Casa Fuente, left me confused and disappointed. I will check out the Davidoff lounge when I return in April.
