Editorial Review for Falcon – by Amy Goldin
The Scene
The stunning Dodd Mitchell-designed space teems with striking blondes in stiletto heels and boyish men wearing shaggy haircuts and the latest trends. The huge polished-concrete patio with outdoor bar and fireplace provides posing opportunities, while the dining room and lounge amp up the glamour with dark wood, pillows and faux fur.
The Food
Gourmet comfort fare is the result of combining fresh market ingredients with Cal-Euro accents. The roasted beet salad with aged goat cheese, or poached pears with endive and blue cheese, get the flavor combos just right. Velvety heirloom tomato gazpacho tastes fresh from the garden. Some sides overshadow entrees, like irresistible grilled corn and fava bean succotash served with meat loaf, and unbeatable grits alongside bland flattened chicken. One exception is citrusy spice-rubbed salmon with pearl barley and asparagus. Rare-meat fans should consider ordering steak "black and blue"--charred on the outside, rare on the inside.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoThere's no sign, so look out for the valet stand across the street from the Saharan Motel.
Where to SitThe black slatted chairs may be beautiful, but they're desperately uncomfortable. Avoid them if you can.
The ExtrasThe Maltese, a fresh fruit cocktail martini, changes nightly, but is usually vodka-based and starts at $8.

I like how someone said "bouncer unavailable when fights break out" Now if the fight is inside the bar the bouncers need to kick you out. But I get the feeling this fight was outside. Maybe next time try not getting into a fight instead? Now I'm a big guy....but I absolutely hate people who fight at bars/clubs...It totally ruins the night for everyone else and the girls get scared. ..................Anyway. This place is a diamond in the rough. We stopped by one night at midnight. Bottle service is incredibly cheap. Service is good. Venue is awesome. People are upscale and classy. Bouncers are nice and helpful.
Pros: great night out
Cons: none really...

I was soooooo enraged that I took the time to make an accont for this website and write this review. I went there for a BIRTHDAY party that had previous reservations and I STILL did not get in. The people working the door were incredibly rude and full of themselves and it didn't make any difference if you made reservations or not. It did make a difference if you were wearing a skirt if you know what I mean. Oh and FYI, it appears to be a Persian hangout.
Pros: If you like to stand in line...
Cons: Everything was full, the bar, the valet, and the bouncers are full of themselves.
