"Step into Capone’s Speakeasy in Alameda, and you’ll sense a bit of Prohibition-era glamour: giant chandeliers hang overhead, long leather couches line the windows, bartenders wear the black-shirt gangster look.
Still, it’s a space that feels more like a modern nightclub than a restaurant trying to throw back to an iconic era in American history. There are tall bar tables scattered throughout the room, but no standard seating. Electronic music pumps insistently out of the sound system, even on a Sunday evening when clubgoers are nowhere to be seen. Thursday through Saturday nights, there’s a dress code: No baseball caps, shorts, shirts without collars, sneakers, sandals or baggy pants."
"Capone’s clearly aspires to be a destination nightclub; maybe the best move would be to pare the menu down even further, focusing on simple bar snacks, rather than trying to straddle the line between fine dining and party central."
I want to apply what I learned from this analysis to my own review creation.
