David Bull and the La Corsha Group combine swank style with superb, consistently creative cuisine. Chef Bull’s innovative and impressive tasting menus with expert wine pairings are the hallmark of dinner service at Congress.

The bar keeps pace with an aggressively fun cocktail program, and all-day service creates the perfect backdrop for a drop-in drink and snack, too. – Gracie Salem
