Tucked behind the Vagabond Hotel, this is a great spot to start the evening, with perfectly mixed cocktails, courtesy of pro bartenders (the kind who will shake your hand and introduce themselves). The outdoor setting overlooking the palm-fringed pool and eclectic crowd pairs nicely with elixirs like the Lost in Smoke (mezcal, amaro, amaretto and orange bitters).
Vagabond is sedate during the week, though things pick up on weekends, with DJs spinning on Friday and Saturday nights. The sushi restaurant was undergoing refurbishment at research time.
