Humboldt & Jackson is a homey spot serving quality foodie food, the best drinks, and a relaxed vibe (I once overheard the bartender say, “One thing we're not allowed to do here at Humboldt & Jackson, is judge.”) So it's not too fancy yet there is a real attention to detail here. Everything on the menu is cultivated with craft and taste in mind. There's a big event calendar on the wall announcing various screenings, kitchen take-overs, and one-off themed menus showcasing local purveyors. All-in-all it's part bar, part restaurant, a little different every time, and always first-rate.
