Soma

With a name drawn from both the Happy Pill in Brave New World and an Iranian hallucinogenic clergy drink (seriously), the neoteric Soma has a strong sousing focus. Boasting an extensive martini-based card (40 varieties) and a rotating and evolving contempo casual menu, this latest addition to the will-be Queen East strip just past the river hopes to cater to the increasing horde of East Side root-takers.



Resident DJs, many from the surrounding area, with a sliding and liquid focus will keep Soma's leather-heavy lounge sticky (not in a gross way) and chilled (yeah, I know it's a paradox) 7 nights a week. Expect exposed brick, wood, and dashing, swaying e-zine writers.

Great place! Just went for lunch (it was kinda quiet but they apparently just started lunches this week) Food was great, quick and extremely tasty. They also do take out which is great for those of us who work in the area.
