Broad Street’s Bliss is offering 50% off of its bar menu for the rest of the summer, weeknights between 4 and 6pm. And even better, you don’t have to be at the bar to enjoy the discount, it also applies to the sidewalk seating on Broad.

Empanada’s drop to $6, flatbread pizza is just $5 and there are three varieties of martinis available for $5 or less.

Tonight, from 5 to 9pm next to the Bellevue will be the Great City Grill.

XIX will bring its bar and join Bliss, The Palm and JL Sullivan’s Speakeasy in grilling their best for a hot summer night. It’s a pay-as-you-go event in a space transformed with umbrella-topped tables, candlelight and a DJ.

We like the idea of this topic, “restaurants you forgot about.” Ashley Primis revisits Bliss on Broad Street finding the experience still holds up.

The New American dishes are concocted from the good ingredients, well sauced, ideally proportioned, delicately displayed and excellently cooked – most for under $30 an entree, a rarity these days.
