Donna's is a cocktail bar on White Oak where the evening's main activity is relaying other people's drinks over your head while inching toward the rail. Seats are guarded by strangers who hover with the patience of vultures, and a Fridge Cig, an Old Fashioned built on dark rum and cherry cola, is what you'll be holding when you finally win one. It was a Spirited Awards Top 10 nominee for Best New U.S. Cocktail Bar.

Handies Douzo is a counter-service hand roll spot where the whole idea is that the nori is crisp for roughly ninety seconds, so you eat the temaki the moment it lands in your hand. Spicy tuna, hamachi, and scallop are the classics, with a few bright crudos and a short sake and cocktail list alongside. It's casual and fast, with the ordering pace of a place that would like you to stop talking and chew.
