Sarah and Nate were wonderful! The wings and math were on point! I enjoyed the aesthetics and music as well! I did not expect such a down to earth experience, my expectations were exceeded!

Nate was a most excellent barkeep, his mixology was phenomenal and quite delicious. I'd recommend this establishment to any and all who enjoy a most quality cocktail. The other bartender Carlos was also very attentive and left me wishing this was my local establishment.

For a while, the Rally had no breakfast option but a decent lunch and dinner option (The Original). Now, it seems they’ve flipped it — serving breakfast and brunch at the Original, leaving your only dinner option to sit at the Rally Bar. As a hotel guest, you still get a free appetizer (with additional purchase) which makes it seem worth it to sit down. But the food is just average and the ambiance is lacking. The space feels cold and unwelcoming and the blaring music (all very uncensored rap)(it’s a bar, it’s going for cool bar vibes) makes for a rather unpleasant dinner experience. The edamame hummus was worth getting, if a little greasy. The ravioli I took back to my room (see aforementioned blaring music) was a complete miss. Go for a drink, not for a meal.

My first experience here like wow! Viv at the bar is absolutely amazing and so personable if you don’t come here and have a great drink you are crazy! Viv is the best! The bar back Jaret was so friendly as well.
