Alexander Michael's, or "Al Mike's" as it's affectionately known, is one of those special nightlife hangouts where you'll feel right at home the minute you set foot in the door.

And even though the kitchen closes early, the bar is open late, and that alone is reason enough to stay late at Al Mike's.
