Upstairs at Ssäm Bar also has an extensive menu of wine, signature and frozen cocktails, beer, sake, and non-alcoholic beverages. The wine list emphasizes classic selections from France, including a notable section dedicated to Champagne, as well as small producers from lesser-known wine regions around the world. Cocktails include Toki Hot Toddy with Suntory Toki whisky, genmaicha tea, and lemon; Psycho Beach Party with mezcal, cynar, passionfruit, pineapple, and blood orange; and the Suit & Chai with chai infused rum, Rockey’s liqueur, ginger, salted plum, and a chinotto float.
Keep the party going after dinner and reserve one of two private karaoke rooms – seats up to 10 people – adjacent to the 36-seat dining room. Guests can still order drinks and spirits while singing their favorite tunes.
