In Short
A wall of twinkling votives, soft white table linens, black metal chairs and a playlist mixing jazz and techno sets the industrial-chic-meets-supper-club ambience. The Pearl's cultivated crowds are at home here in the intimate dark wood booths, or at the bar surveying the scene from a wall of mirrors. The menu features items such as fish tacos with grilled Tombo tuna, cabbage slaw and salsa. There's also a succulent half-pound Bima burger.

Holden's has a great atmosphere. The service is extremely slow so don't eat there if you are hungry or have anything else to do that evening. My husband and I frequently ate at Holden's for their great happy hour and overall menu. The menu has changed and it is no longer the great place it once was. If you love bacon this is your kind of place. Bacon is in EVERYTHING. The menu change was not a good one and the food is just marginal. The cost seems expensive for what you get and for the poor, new menu. We will not be coming back.

Where to Sit:
Good weather calls for an open garage door and outdoor seating; otherwise, try and score one of the semiprivate dark-wood booths for your crew.
What to Drink:
Whet your palate with cocktails like the citrusy Whippet martini or the daring Filthy martini, splashed with balsamic vinegar.
